M&P15T

Duuuuude..... I have a fantasy of all three Iowas being recommissioned, and sailing the globe again. Unless you've actually seen one in person, toured one, you have no idea what the words "amazing" and "impressive" mean.

Brilliant; I'm infatuated with big ships, and Naval actions. Drachinifel is a fantastic YT channel with tons of great content on the big Warships. I toured the USS Wisconsin last year. Brought tears to my eyes.

So here's an interesting one. The original Viper GTS-R, that was loaned out to the various car magazines for testing decades ago. Then scheduled to be destroyed; I see this car at my Sunday morning Cars & Coffee most weekends. It's owner is very proud of it, has all the paper-work. It's autographed on the dash by the original head of the Viper team, and I think Carrol Shelby IIRC. He's a member of some Uber Viper aficionados, they have conference calls with the original Viper team head guy occasionally. And the dumbass still has the original 21 year old tires on it. Which I bitch him out for every time I see him.

Best time I ever had shooting, was during a snow storm. The weather was clear when I set up, but the snow started pouring. It made the range session more like a Robert's Ridge re-enactment.

What bird is that?

The Elephant's Foot, Chernobyl nuclear power plant.https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/the-famous-photo-of-chernobyls-most-dangerous-radioactive-material-was-a-selfie/?utm_source=facebook.com&utm_medium=atlas-page&fbclid=IwAR0uwlw10yY6p83dY2wGPGq2OxXPT2Msu1yfK6Uurpkco9_4qaxf17sR0lM

Dat F22 tho!!!!

That's heaven. No TV, no internet, no phone. And hopefully a massive expanse of wilderness outside, along with a little lake. Where's that at?

I went to the air-show a few years ago. I was sitting in the bleachers, and the F22 came from behind us. It came over our heads, slowed in front of us, went nose-up/vertical, and just hung there. That damn plane just sat there, not moving, it's nose pointing skyward, very close to the ground. Then it dropped it's nose, and rocketed away from us, like something from a cartoon. Then it did many other maneuvers that defied the laws of physics. On another pass, it was going across our field of vision. It came in straight, came to a vertical stop with the nose up, sat there again for a moment, then went straight upwards a few hundred feet, the leveled off and went straight ahead again like it was nothing. We need, like, 3,745,978 more of those. FWIW, the Blue Angels were a real disappointment. Due to the level of noise, most people were wearing hearing protection. The B.A.s had an announcer on a PA system that was so ****ing loud, you couldn't even hear the planes. Absolutely ruined their part of the show. I left, it was so loud.

Now look..... I am faaar from a safety Nazi. I think Lawn Darts should be readily available. But the incandescent light INSIDE the dried-ass Christmas tree is a bit much.🤣

A 9MM Tavor? I thought they were rifles?

Yeah....but this car is Joplinectomy and a paint job away from awesomeness.

The President isn't a King. The 2A is protected by the COTUS, which is protected by the USSC. The USSC is good. Let's not panic.
