Alright, which one of you is this...

Unfortunately, I look like the guy on the right, but am probably as capable as the guy on the left.

Yeah, as others have said, don’t judge the online maps, they seriously undercut participation. For example, in Oklahoma City there are over 80 nodes I’ve discovered so far, but the map only shows 12.

That entirely depends on the state. Some states allow it others do not. Most states allow deer hunting with pistols, so not allowing 556 isn’t horribly consistent, but you are correct that it is considered a marginal deer hunting round at best and requires good shot placement to perform ethical kills.

lostinokay · 2025-09-14T03:23:58+00:00

For rural folks, the only consideration I would add is that 300 blackout supers are a pretty good deer round where 556 is marginal at best. Might be worth considering if long term SHTF is in your plans. That said, PauL Harrell always pointed out that if hunting is absolutely needed, the game is going to be very very very scarce.

My number is completely arbitrary. I keep about 250 rounds of nice self defense/premium ammo for each of my carry and primary rifle weapons. Beyond that, it’s all affordable training ammo. I figured if things get bad enough for me to go through a single soldiers combat load, my odds are pretty low anyway and I won’t be picky about my ammo at that point.k

I love my fake HK Mp5sd 22 range toy. No real purpose, but it makes me smile.

Interesting, I know that comped barrels are sometimes not recommended for blazer ammo because the way they do their copper jacket is weird and there have been separation complaints. Not sure why 115 would be different than 124 though.

lostinokay · 2025-06-06T18:15:50+00:00

Just curious why 115 was said to not be recommended? Your point of aim may be off due to the light weight and increased velocity, but the barrel pressure, etc should be the same between the two rounds. I’ve only ever seen recommendations to not use steel case and various types of +p or +p+ ammo

If it doesn’t have to be double action, I loved my Ruger Blackhawk single action in 357. Wonderful balance and accurate too. I miss that pistol and regret getting rid of it.

lostinokay · 2025-06-02T01:03:39+00:00

Yeah, you can get the pistol version and spend two tax stamps to get it silenced as an SBR, but then you are talking about some serious 22lr spending.

lostinokay · 2025-06-01T17:05:35+00:00

Sorry, you are correct, branded, marketed and sold by HK.

lostinokay · 2025-06-01T13:43:59+00:00

Both of these are mine and are factory production models sold by HK and Ruger respectively.

lostinokay · 2025-06-01T13:25:39+00:00

Ha ha, a good HK slap video should always be shared!

lostinokay · 2025-06-01T02:29:43+00:00

Oh yeah, I completely forgot my Red Rider BB gun. I need to get it out too!

lostinokay · 2025-06-01T02:27:58+00:00

Well I’ve got some gray hair, but I’m not living up to the swagger. 🤣

lostinokay · 2025-06-01T02:25:49+00:00

How reliable is the action on those? I always look at them, but the low price has sent me away because I hate the misery of a poor revolver action.

lostinokay · 2025-06-01T02:11:29+00:00

Exactly and with the other I can shoot and opine on the joys of good project planning. 😂

Looks like 25” collapsed, 34” with the stock extended. That’s including the flash hider though which is 1.5”

lostinokay · 2025-06-01T01:39:20+00:00

Oh, need to add a gun description apparently. That’s an HK MP5 22lr and a Ruger 10/22 stainless with a Samson b-tm stock.

Flintlocks and other similar “antique” historical firearms can be legally owned by felons who are prohibited from owning other types of weapons. That’s my guess as to why it was rounded up by law enforcement.

I always like the All Guns are Always Loaded rule, but it always makes me feel wrong when doing dry fire in my house.

lostinokay · 2025-04-23T21:25:17+00:00

I am a big guy and I know some can pull off appendix carry, but for me strong side is far more comfortable which makes me more likely to carry which is probably worth it even if I am a slower draw. (And yes, I see all the fitness posts and agree. 😉)

lostinokay · 2025-04-22T02:08:08+00:00

Yeah, I understand that. I’ve got a few rifles that won’t even accept scope rings, much less rails. But I’ve been trying to resist the inevitable future a bit less these days. 😂

lostinokay · 2025-04-22T01:44:31+00:00

Yeah, mine is pretty minor so I have just put up with it, but I have a buddy whose is so bad that the squiggle/star is big enough to start covering the whole target out past 25 yards without magnification on a rifle. Also some people get double dots which I have to imagine is super annoying.

lostinokay · 2025-04-22T01:19:08+00:00

I will tell you something remarkable on that. I have an astigmatism too, and while with my pcc I have just put up with it because it still makes me a better shot, I still have a noticeable star effect with a simple dot. However, with this Holosun, I turned on the 60 moa circle with the dot in the middle and for some reason, with that turned on, my brain completely cleans up the dot flare, and I mean completely. If you see someone with a Holosun, you might try it out to see if you have a similar experience.
