  1. May he RIP. I watched a Discover(?), channel show were they showed some of his test flights, including where the sound barrier was broken, that would have scared the poop out of me. I've heard the sonic booms in the desert when one of the fast movers went overhead, thought someone had lobbed one at us.
  2. I will follow these crazy laws as much as possible, and won't knowingly break them when I have other options. If you really need one, then sure go for it, but I'm fine in the AR department, and enough lowers to make a few more if needed.
  3. Yes, it matters, whatever it was born as is what matters, if initially a rifle then it would be illegal to have it as a pistol, unless an SBR. Since it's an Anderson, it was probably sold as stripped lower, which means it could go either way, but if there is a record out there, like a forum post, as a rifle prior to it being converted to a pistol, then you would have an issue.
  4. Great job, congrats. That should keep you in venison for some time. Elk steak is some of the best I have had, much better, IMO, than beef.
  5. As I've said before, I will forsake any of the China Virus vaccines until they've been thourouly vetted. And with every one of them in the low 90 percentile of effectiveness, and the virus' survivability in the high 90 percentile I like my chances. Once I get into the higher risk category, which hopefully by then it will be almost gone, or severly diminished, I'll probably take it if they find that the antibodies don't last long. Most likely it will be like the flu, coming back every year with a different strain, if not I'm sure they'll come up with another reason to keep giving the shots.
  6. When I try to press the small dot next to the post title, to get me to the last read post in the thread, instead of taking me to the post, it takes me to the last poster's profile. At first I thought I was just fat fingering it, but it keeps doing it. After I use the back page, it then works as it is supposed to. I'm on an android tablet using chrome and the new dark theme.
  7. Yea, I concur, should be ok to check. But, are you going to use them, offer them for sale, or something? Otherwise, why mess with it until you have to, just in case. If you do, just out of curiosity, be sure to document it, if like me, a few months from now you'll be curious again.
  8. Doing a DIY European mount is not too hard, should give it a try, mine turned out great.
  9. Mounting? If not, he'd make an awesome European.
  10. Nice, congrats! No movement around me, yet. I've heard maybe one shot from deer hunters, but am close to some duck hunting area and heard a bunch from them.
  11. Damn, sad to hear.
  12. Maybe two freezers, that's a lot of meat. Good luck.
  13. Hope so, need me one, looking for a doe, and won't be able to go after tomorrow, maybe Tuesday morning but it may be cut short if the carport guys show up early.
  14. Not yet, wait until the dems start working biden's plan to tax all gun related items.
  15. I have only seen one, this little 4 point. I was hoping for a big doe, but he will do. Going back out Saturday, hope to get my doe, but if another buck comes out, well, I may just invite him home too.
  16. No, it has not. It may look that way but it is not. The Electoral College hasn't even convened yet.
  17. Shoot, now I really want to see it.
  18. Yea, me too. I have only paid to have one processed, and that was to make sure the processor did a good job before recommending him to friends. But like I said, I won't do it for others, because it does take some work, and is time consuming to do properly, and I wouldn't feel right if I cut corners just because I wasn't keeping the venison.
  19. Well, our friend passed last Friday, and fortunately for all involved nobody had to make that decision. But, her home hospice nurses instructed the family to up the doses of morphine to make her more comfortable. The Dr had specified the standard 4hr schedule for each injection, but they suggested maybe to do it at maybe 2 hr intervals. Without saying, they pretty much instructed the family how to make her go faster. The family didn't, they stuck to the Dr's schedule, and were a bit peeved about the nurses instructions. Another of her family friends was a respiratory nurse, and mentioned that that much morphine would make her body stop wanting to draw a breath. When we visited her on Wednesday night, I heard the telltale rattle, and later told my wife to be prepared for her to pass soon, maybe in the next 24 hours, I wasn't far off.
  20. Looks like the high numbers of China Virus patients didn't materialize for them.
  21. Lol, that is why I will shoot a deer for friends but they have to get it processed (or do their own) because it is not only labor intensive, but it takes some time, time which I could be hunting.
  22. More than likely you will need a riser or a high mount set or rings. My 50mm just barely sits above the hand guards (flat top), any bigger and it would be touching I'd think. Something similar to this, but be sure to measure from the centerline of your lense to the bottom of your scope to make sure it will clear the rail. https://www.cheaperthandirt.com/parts-and-accessories/parts-by-gun-model/ar-15/mounts/scope-and-sight-mounts/
  23. You may have, not everyone experiences the loss of smell or taste, which of course would make you less susceptible to any further infection from the China Virus. I have been around so many that have come up positive that I am sort of surprised that I have not been forced to get tested, or been quarantined at least. But not a bit surprised at the fact that I have not caught it though, as I too feel I have had it already.
  24. No data from hospitals because they did not yet know about it and did not test for it. I was real sick, twice, June and Dec, last year both times tested for and found negative for flu, and other melodies. Both times my regular cold/flu regimen did not work, and the cough lasted for weeks afterward. Don't know if it was the China Virus or not, but in my case if it was it would not have been reported as the china virus. Many times they will go back and see that certain illnesses and viruses were here before but just overlooked.
