Re: No place but Afghanistan

If anyone is interested, I left Bagram today and am sitting in Kabul waiting for the plane to refuel. Lord willing I'll be having dinner in Dubai in a few hours. Thanks to all who have prayed for our safe return. Since I last posted we didn't get attacked again in Bagram and most of my guys are on t...

Re: No place but Afghanistan

It's getting worse as we prepare to pull out (EDIT: attacks against the Afghan population and especially the ANA and ANP... I really wouldn't want to be those guys right now). Some of the attacks are being reported as "accidents" as well... don't believe the news. Y'all please pray (if yo...

Re: The Tactical Games coming to Texas

I'm interested in trying this out when I'm home. Hopefully in the winter, not summer :???: Rules don't prohibit a frozen IcePlate Curve being set inside the back armor.... :lol: Might have to run one for a while to see if its worth it. That's actually a good idea... Can someone do a quick overview ...

Re: Why Use Eye Protection

I've said it before but I'll say it again... I've had two instances when I was young and dumb that firmly put me into the "ALWAYS WEAR YOUR EYEPRO" camp. The first was a Mini-14 that had a badly attached flashhider. As I was shooting, it broke loose and worked its way down the barrel until...

Now think about who gets to dictate the rules regarding said training.

Re: Just found out my mother has covid

I've been on multiple overseas flights and at least 4 countries and still haven't tested positive yet :cool: (maybe I had it earlier, who knows) Meanwhile, in the carefully-controlled and quarantined Texas school system, my sister's entire family of six had it recently. Symptoms varied from loss of ...

Re: Who's running a dot on their pistol?

I have RMRs on a 19 and 19X and have had one on an FBX-45T as well. Definitely worth it for me :mrgreen:

Re: New gun. Am I being picky?

I went ahead and took the gun to a local gunsmith I know to look at it as I didn't have a means of torqueing it down properly. He is concerned that it's stripped as the screw started spinning. That's a whole different issue, entirely. I'd be looking for either a proper repair or the reimbursement f...

Re: New gun. Am I being picky?

I wouldn't expect it to be zeroed unless they explicitly stated that it was part of their service.

I'd be a little annoyed about the screws backing out, but I'd also just re-loctite them and torque them down again.
