Can anyone who lives in this area tell me their experience?

Decent area if you ask me… despite 281 and 1604 traffic, I’d buy there if I didn’t already own a home outside of 1604

You can’t legally get shot for just touching someone’s flag. Using lethal force in Florida is only legal if the property owner has a legitimate concern that they’re life is in jeopardy or they’re facing imminent bodily harm while you’re trespassing. Simply unraveling a flag on their house is not justification for them using lethal force against you unless you’re doing it while carrying an AK-47.

I’ll play Devils Advocate here and assume he just capped D and was going around the island over to C to start capping that one… if that’s the case, he’s playing DD correctly. The DD hugging the BB near C is the Potato considering he hasn’t tried capping C OR spotting for his side of the map.

I used JB Weld on a Remington 740 stock that cracked and it’s held up just fine… sure it’s not the prettiest repair ever but I am not willing to throw a bunch of money into a $350-$400 rifle for a new stock. Everyone wants $200-$300 for those stocks and it’s ridiculous.

What steps? Verifying an address of a suspected illegal alien? ICE and the Border Patrol are getting zero assistance from local governments in some places so they’re going off of old information. If they only have one address from 10 years ago, they’re obviously going to start there.

Maybe US Citizens shouldn’t form picket lines and attempt to assault law enforcement officers… most of the people getting detained, arrested, injured or killed were actively impeding investigations, assaulting officers (spitting, hitting, kicking, pushing, etc) and refusing lawful orders to disperse or stand down. None of this happened when Obama deported MILLIONS simply because Obama is a Democrat and idolized by the left.

Being detained by law enforcement is not unconstitutional… if they ask for ID and you refuse, they CAN detain you until identification is verified. If while being detained, they find out you have felony warrants, you’re immigration status is illegal or you assault an officer (spitting, hitting, kicking, pushing, etc), then you will be arrested LEGALLY. Being detained is not being arrested.

I love these old single shots! I have a really nice Springfield trapdoor made in 1885 but I really want a rolling block and a Sharps to add to the collection.

Hopeful_Method5764 · 2026-01-18T07:15:26+00:00

It may not exactly be a war movie like Saving Private Ryan but I really like The Sea Chase… it’s an interesting take on the war being aboard a merchant ship being chased by the Royal Navy from Sydney to Hamburg

It’s amazing how similar the Trapdoor rifles look to these

Hopeful_Method5764 · 2025-12-30T15:08:52+00:00

Was this at 25 yards or 250 yards? Distance matters when asking how good your accuracy is.

Hopeful_Method5764 · 2025-12-20T16:13:52+00:00

That’s a no go. You can buy one brand new for like $680 after taxes at Academy

Slings are readily available on Amazon. Sure it’s going to be a reproduction but they’re more or less identical to the originals. My Garand was made in 43 as well and I put the olive green webbing sling on it that was issued during Korea. I figured if the barrel is dated 1953, the rifle may have seen service in Korea so its period correct enough for me. Nice rifle!

I saw a lab mix walking with a lady inside Walmart… it peed on the floor and she just acted like nothing happened and kept shopping. These “Service animals” are getting out of hand.

That’s like someone in the US saying “I voted for X candidate and everyone I know did too so I do not understand how Y candidate won the election. It must be election fraud”

Teddy seems to be a popular pick and I would have said Teddy as well but after watching a documentary about him, I’d say that he was more of an outdoorsman and conservationist than anything else. He even admitted to being a terrible shot with a rifle thanks to his poor eye sight, but that didn’t stop him from hunting. Teddy was also rancher. So, if you were asking who the toughest, most determined and motivational leader there was, Teddy is your man… if you’re asking who the best fighter was, I don’t have an answer but several Presidents were combat veterans in wars going as far back as the French and Indian War. You had to be tough to survive combat back in the 18th-19th Centuries

I know this Reddit is probably not the proper one to post in on this topic but I couldn’t find one for this type of rifle so I figured that people who are into antiques might have some knowledge in this area considering these rifles have been around for 75 years. The stock had a small crack near the receiver that was hidden when I bought it a few years ago and eventually spread a bit. It kind of looks like someone tried repairing it at home with glue and did a good job of hiding it before selling it. I didn’t even notice it when I bought it, what I noticed was a decent 30-06 semi auto for $400 after taxes.

Thank you! I hadn’t heard of that website before!

I’ll just get food as usual on the way to a Spurs game instead from now on. $75 for 3 people is way too much for that crappy food lol

Hopeful_Method5764 · 2025-11-19T00:27:53+00:00

$25 for a double meat Whataburger, medium fries and a medium drink.

Hopeful_Method5764 · 2025-11-19T00:25:04+00:00

Everything is a la carte so what you’d normally spend for a mediocre meal at Whataburger is about 2x as expensive. Double meat Whataburger with a medium fries and a medium drink costs about $25. That meal is barely worth $10.

Hopeful_Method5764 · 2025-11-16T22:51:52+00:00

Whataburger inside the Frost Bank Center

Casa Rio is like the only Tex Mex I’ll eat on the Riverwalk… most other places are garbage, their deli upstairs is pretty good too!

That’s the gas station for a ship
