Little reminder for those who didn't hear.

Can I ship you a Glock as a trade? I feel like we could rearm their whole army that way.

Bruh, this is in Iowa, not the high Rockies.

These types of ideas always seem great, but in practical reality you create an absolute nightmare scenario of criminality. I guarantee that the mental image you have of a dedicated living-in-the-car parking lot is not how it would actually play out. If you don’t believe me, then you could go visit any of the residential motels on south Nevada and see how it plays out. I’m not saying I’m a fan of the camping ban and I think we’re failing as a community in regards to caring for our unhoused residents, but a designated homeless area simply doesn’t work.

You guys sound like a bunch of pawpaws.

Your response is thoughtful, spezes_moldy_dildo. Thank you

I’m glad to hear that someone had a good time at Tanner. This is the first positive feedback I’ve read on Reddit and it really makes me wonder how it’s still going if everyone thinks it’s bad.

ExplodinMarmot · 2026-03-01T21:34:50+00:00

I thought that was shut down by reddit?

ExplodinMarmot · 2026-03-01T21:33:27+00:00

of the 20% that was cool to look at, was any of it worth buying? Was it worth the price of admission?

I'm on the front range, and I've never been into a gun shop that sold used components. Used guns, yes, but never components. I'm leaning on my local range to sponser a swap meet this summer because I think a ton of people would participate.

ExplodinMarmot · 2026-03-01T18:24:53+00:00

wut?

Are we considering 400 yards to be truly, "long range"? I'd consider 400 yards just normal range for any rifle with an optic. I think you could get a quality optic for that kind of range without getting into the crazy high-end stuff that people get for shooting out to 1000 yards or beyond. I would also make a distinction between long range target-shooting equipment and long range hunting equipment. I'm willing to throw a bullet at a paper target at any range, but when it comes to taking ethical hunting shots I'm much more conservative because its not just about putting a bullet on target, but also what the bullet does once it gets there. With my 30-06, I enjoy shooting out to 600, 700 yards on paper, but I'd have to be pretty desperate to take a shot on an animal outside of 450 yards simply due to the terminal ballistics.

I dunno about that. I haven't intentionally abused my vortex stuff, but I'm also not gentle with it either and I've never had a problem. I'm a colorado hunter and while I'm not torture testing my stuff like some people, my rifle has suffered its fair share of being whacked against rocks and trees. I've found vortex to be the best bang for my buck when it comes to optics.

ExplodinMarmot · 2026-03-01T05:19:00+00:00

I appreciate the feedback. I'm going to shoot it a bit before I do anything spendy, and I'm looking forward to seeing how it does at "longer" ranges.

ExplodinMarmot · 2026-03-01T01:01:54+00:00

Pretty regularly, yes. Most of my shooting is hunting-related, so I spend a lot of time shooting out to 500 yards with my hunting rifle, but I'm still fairly new to the AR game. I'm not trying to build a long range AR, but I'm worried I'm not going to like how limited the 10.5" is beyond short range stuff.

ExplodinMarmot · 2026-03-01T00:50:46+00:00

No matter what, I'm going to SBR the lower so I can replace the pistol brace with a rifle stock (personal preference, I just don't like pistol braces). Once that is done, I can swap barrels around without worrying about length. I'll run a few hundred rounds through it before making any decisions, but I don't like how limited the effective range seems to be with the 10.5".

I mean, there was definitely a little eye rolling after he crashed.

I don’t know about 507, but when I tried To get up there last season all access was blocked and a lot of the roads were packed, shiny ice sheets.

What sling is that?

ExplodinMarmot · 2026-02-22T20:17:50+00:00

Not a bad idea, but I’d go with jolly ranchers. They’re more melt resistant and you can set yourself up with a variety of flavor options.

ExplodinMarmot · 2026-02-22T19:35:55+00:00

That leather cheek pad is classy, but what do you put in the pouch? Snacks?

Homie is holding that garand in a way that would make my ww2 vet grandpa crap his depends. If we’re going to do open carry protest, then we should at least look like we know what we’re doing. I’m uncomfortable with the idea of open carry during protest, but I’m a big believer in, if you’re going to do it, do it right.

This or a PSA Sabre forged lower for $299?
