High Exposure

That’s a very fair and introspective assessment. Thanks for that. Please, let nothing in this thread prevent you from posting more and giving us an opportunity to get to know you, and you a chance to know us.

Just out of curiosity.... Define “No apparent reason”. How do you know the owner had “No apparent reason” and this employee, veteran or not, was fired for a legitimate reason? I have never been to this range, and will probably never go there, so I have no dog in this, but you do seem to have a pretty serious axe to grind. I am always suspicious of someone’s motives when I see these kinds of posts. You’ve been here for just a few months (joined a few days after this thread started), only have 5 posts, and they have all been in this thread. Then, you necropost a dead thread, just to slam the owner with what are, for all intents and purposes, unsubstantiated claims of unfairness against a veteran. That’s a lot of energy and thought expended for a mere difference of opinion. Just sayin’....

That makes sense. He does look pretty close to the wings/far back on some of those shots.

Pretty cool article. https://theaviationgeekclub.com/the-iconic-f-14-tomcat-returns-aboard-a-u-s-navy-aircraft-carrier-for-top-gun-maverick/ Looks like the F-14 was from the San Diego Air and Space Museum and loaded onto CVN-71 USS Theodore Roosevelt. It also looks like Cruise will be flying an F18 himself in some shots. Some of the filming was done on CVN-72 The USS Abraham Lincoln. One of my guys was a yellow shirt on that ship - pretty sure I’ll be going to see this in theaters with him.

Agreed 10,000,000%!!! I swear, some of you guys would nit-pick a blowjob. (apologies for the vulgarity Peel) Isn’t this exactly the kind of win we need? Isn’t this exactly what we constantly say needs to happen to get our legitimate point regarding personal protection across to the other side? This is not a flip-flop. This is not a “It is good for me and not for thee” moment. This is, “Holy Shit! Violence happens with a quickness. You need to be able to protect yourself. Your safety is your responsibility! So go out there and prepare yourself to be able to defend yourself.” As an elected official, a Dem no less, this guy is going door-to-door and trying to educate people on the 2A. Rep. Ford could have just as easily hired bodyguards or requested an ISP protection detail/driver and been silent on the topic. Instead he learned from his experience and realized he is no more special than anyone else.

Don’t. Feed. The trolls.

The Q Cherry Bomb is unpleasant on a 16” barrel. I can’t imagine it on an SBR - unless it will be a dedicated suppressed gun. Surefire Warcomp for the win! Great balance of flash hider, and comp, but still enough of a break to be a great mounting platform for a suppressor.

Weird... I’m issued a Colt R0933 “Commando” at work. 11.5” barrel, with an A2 on it. I have zero issues shooting it, in fact it’s one of my favorite guns to shoot. The concussion, blowback, and recoil are mild and a non-issue.

Flotation panels are built into the armor package now. Plus they are probably wearing an inflatable yoke type vest. Alternatively, they may have a quick release on the armor, where if you pull a certain part of the armor, the armor will fall off your body.

No way. You don’t know what kind of fuel leaks or flammable materials/fumes are in there - and you are standing on top of it. Also, they have a 1 second fuse, so there isn’t even time to toss and move.

No no! It’s just ice cream!!

All the cops will be stealing your ammo! They will be quite disappointed when they find ammo inside instead of glazed....

Paint the insides safety orange. Paint the outsides red, white, and blue.

Steiner P4Xi. Costs just a little bit more than an MRO or PRO. Best value in LPVO out there - IMO.

Yup. I just got G48s for my plainclothes guys and admin cake eaters, along with Gen 5 G17 MOS for my patrol guys. When 8 ordered them in March, I had the option to get them the 48s in black, but it would have taken an extra few moths so I went with the silver.

My disdain for EOTech and L3 in general is well documented here. I had nothing but issues with mine and the bunch of others we had issued to Team members that I was responsible for. Yeah, they are in use with military units, but I don’t have the supply resources to swap batteries every day/job, spare optics for replacement when they constantly fail, or easy range access to make sure the zero is good before taking the rifle to work. Hell, we’d have to spend the first hour and a half, and an ~1/8th of our allotted range ammo for each range training session just chasing zeros on EO equipped guns that were zeroed 2 weeks ago.... It’s funny that’s I did not have any of those issues with the Aimpoint RDS optics that replaced them. Anyway, I shitcanned all of my EOTurds but one for refunds - I have a AA battery model that I forgot was in the safe. I slapped it on a SW MP15-22. I have one MRO that I traded a buddy an Aimpoint PRO for - He needed the PRO to be in compliance with Dept policy. The MRO is OK. None of the EO issues have surfaced. Although I do like the size/weight of the MRO, I do marginally prefer the Aimpoint PRO. I am happy enough with the MRO though, I wouldn’t trade back. * Sidenote: I have a spare Tangodown MRO cover if anyone is looking and is interested. I accidentally added two to my cart...

It can.

Re Sealing Plate - look at the Battlewerx Anti Flicker plate. http://www.battlewerx.com/anti-flicker-sealing-plate-for-trijicon-rmr-type-1-black/ Works as advertised. A “must have” item if you are running an RMR, in my opinion. Also, if possible, use the Sony 2032 batteries. They are a couple thousandths of an inch thicker and help reduce any flicker issues you may have.

I have a KKM barrel and comp combo on one of my G19s. It works great. I am intrigued by the PMM and Arc Division stuff as well - especially for a Gen 5 gun.

X5 is Striker fired gun vs a more traditional single/double action of the P226.

Replace the . with DOT ex: Hotlink - www.website.com Coldlink - wwwDOTwebsite.com Then the link doesn’t come back here when they see traffic. Just one more way to keep a low profile. Also, sites can come after NJGF for copyright stuff if you copy and paste paid content owned by another site/author and they get a hair up their ass.

You guys should really make these links cold so the site you are linking too (which is likely anti-gun, and anti-giving-their-content-away-for-free) can’t track back to NJGF.

I have a 2017 Ridgeline. I chose it after narrowing it down to the Honda and a Tacoma. The Ridgeline rides better, has much more room inside, and has way more storage space. I had a 2007 Ridgeline prior that, it gave me zero issues. They are great little trucks.
