The official status update thread - I

[SavageEagle]

I just got caught up with this thread. Black ice on some of the roads out there so be careful if you are driving.

Yea! County roads suck around here too, real slick, State roads are good.

Well now you guys should know that you wouldn't have to worry about it if you weren't posting and driving!

What was the temp?

22 degrees f

I have it under control.

I have it under control.

Hmm, I wouldn't trust it unless it was displayed on a HUD.

My brother used to have a 1997 Grand Prix that had the speed readout on a HUD. I'm kinda surprised more cars don't have that feature these days.

Only if it was the whole windshield. That way I could watch movies.

Our 95 GTP did the same thing. And I'm with you, that was the most awesome thing I'd ever seen in a car. They should do more of that!

^^^ What he said! Then we could all watch our pron driving down the road!

There's probably some study somewhere that reports that driving while watching pr0n is "like driving drunk", which of course we all would agree isn't good.
But the question those types of studies never answer is how many minutes you can watch before exceeding the legal limit!

i got the fancy dvd player radio head unit. and yes mine is setup to watch movies while you drive.

More recently it has been reported that alcohol contributes to nearly 30 percent of all Canadian traffic fatalities and 44 percent of traffic fatalities in the United States.

So 70% of fatal accidents in Canada were from sober drivers where in the U.S. 56% were.

Sounds like it is safer to drive drunk.

I just got done shopping for my new rifle, found it. Hopefully I'll order it tomorrow. I read through the explinations for mil/mil and moa/moa recticles in scopes. My eyes are bleeding and I still don't understand which is easier to do the math with. Ugh.

You plan on buying some expensive glass?
What range are you looking to shoot?
You buying a complete gun or building one?

 

[turnandshoot4]

Buying complete for now I think. Shooting will be 50 yards to (hopefully) 1200 yards.

I am starting to look into $2,000 glass now.

 

[turnandshoot4]

The problem is that the rifle I really want isn't offered right now. Basically a REPR without any problems, and MOA accuracy.

So one day I will build it. Until then the DPMS line of rifles are cheaper to buy assembled than they are to build.

If I lived back in Colorado, I would look into nice glass.

On my 6.8 Spc I have a Millet 1.5x6 scope
I also have a sightron II on one of my AR's
Not great glass but does the job for the range the guns are capable of.
You shooting high power?

Have you looked at Armalite?

What are these so called "guns" and "glass" you speak of?
