When you hold the gun sideways and shove the gun forward with each shot, all while grabbing your crotch, well, accuracy can be a bit less than perfect. They just need to get a red dot.
It's like a kid who winds their arm up 3 times before they throw a ball.

Without any type of spoiler, I've heard it's not particularly great. I hear that there's no backstory for the war. The factions are unbelievable and that the main characters have no backstory. So it's just a movie showing the horrors of civil war. I also heard that the movie doesn't have any real world politics in it, which is a positive at least.
So there's a war we don't understand with groups that don't make sense told from the perspective of people we know nothing about.
Could work? Maybe? I dunno. It'll be on Netflix or Prime in a month regardless.

Maybe it's an old school model 516? They don't make them anymore but they used CR123's. I had to do some digging to find it (waybackmachine of eotechs website). It's still supposed to have the standard reticle though. OP if you could provide the markings. Thank you.

Oh it certainly looks a bit blocky/chunky, I agree. I guess you don't want delicate but it could probably be slimmed down some and remain durable.
I'm willing to bet if they just let me have one I could play around with it long enough to be fully appreciative

Just over 11 lbs (5.1kg) with suppressor and 1 loaded mag. 8.4lbs for the base rifle. Not crazy by any stretch. Maybe a pound over what I would have envisioned considering the 13" barrel.
That was just my experience while being in a line of people waiting to do the same. Overall i just thought they felt bulky, like the chassis felt overly bloated.

I got to fondle this new Sig lineup at the NRA con last year. They're impressive looking but I will say that all of them felt very bulky and heavy.

Huh...I don't think I've seen a 512 that uses CR123

I'm glad it started working because the Xfinity tech you spoke with may have a mental disorder. Install edge.....jeez.
Chromebooks serve their purpose as long as your purpose is checking email, online shopping or browsing something like TGO. Beyond that, not so much.

I love them, but it's a lot like a revolver or a fancy 1911... i just don't think I'll ever pay for one.

You would probably love my bonus room then. Yes, you're also dead on about the therapy. I love the "tinker" nature of it.
My son always wanted legos, so he would buy them and just couldn't be bothered to finish them. So I wound up doing it. Eventually he got a couple of the cards and so after i built them, he wanted to showcase them in my space upstairs. Next thing you know, i've got probably 15 or so. Eventually the fam just started buying them for me for birthdays, Christmas etc. I got this one last Christmas.

When i was 16, a guy offered to sell my father a 1969 roadrunner for $3,000 for me to drive. My dad said "that's too much car for him" (He drove a GTX as a youngster). So instead, he forced me into a "safe car" a 1990 buick regal 2 door.
I loved my father dearly, but I never forgave him for that. It's a wonder I ever met a woman.
It looked like this
I wound up with this

He was a great Nordberg in Naked Gun. I'll just have to remember him that way to keep it positive. RIP

Sounds like one of the few times those high tech proximity switch guns that only fire when the owner holds it would be way to go "IF" they actually work. Not a fan but if that helps arm Teachers who wish to carry then why not?
hah, well i'm equally resistant to a tech barrier with a firearm.

My sleep apnea journey was rocky.
Insurance wasn't going to pay anything and I did not have the money to pay out of pocket.
I got my referral and headed off to the pulmonary group. I was in the office with the doc for about 4 minutes. It was long enough for him to say, "because of your size, we should be able to do everything with an at home study. Head downstairs and they will get you scheduled." The initial visit cost me 200 dollars. I headed downstairs and scheduled the at home study for 6 weeks later because they were backed up. That cost me another 350 that day. I'm out 550 dollars and all the doctor did was look at me. That's it. Mind you, because of what he said, I'm thinking the at home study is all I will have to do.
6 weeks later I complete the at home portion, turn it back in and wait for my results. And NOTHING. For 3 weeks. I finally called them and they wanted to schedule my in lab sleep study. This is when I lost it. They wanted $1750 for the in lab study and then I was still going to be on the hook for the machine with no assistance from insurance. I went back and forth with them and made no progress so I decided to walk away.
Luckily, I found EasyBreathe. They used the results from my at home study to get me a prescription for a BiPap machine with auto titration.I had to save up and it cost me right around $1200 TrumpBucks to get my ResMed AirCurve 10 VAuto. The machine has been great and made a world of difference for me. I have only not used it once since I had it and that was because of a power outage. I cannot sleep without it.
That's corporate medicine for you. I bet they acted like you were out of line for being upset. It's only gonna get worse with medicine I'm afraid.
We're kinda hosed either way. If we stick with free market, then big business will own it all and subject us to their policies, monopoly and price hikes. if we socialize it we'll be Canada where you have to go to the emergency room and wait 4 hours because you have a respiratory infection and need a steroid/antibiotic. (Doctors are months out and they don't get to have walk-in clinics and urgent care places like we do).-

Not a fan of this one. I have a certain level of trust for adults and for permit holders. In my heart I want to believe that everyone would be doing the right thing.
In my gut though, I think it's going to up the % of accidents and that older kids will make plays for the weapon. I'm all for having guns in school, but I want it with someone like an SRO who's somewhat separated from the classroom. -

That's in downtown Columbia.
I was thinking dang!
I want to fix up a classic so bad I can taste it. I need the garage space though and have teenagers heading off to college. One day, God willing.
Slick ride man. You should post the Gladiator as well. I've got a 2018 JK Rubicon. I don't put the love into her like i used to, but i still enjoy it quite a bit.
Fun pictures or videos.
