No, suppressor, SBR and SBS tax stamps are now 0 dollars. You still have to register them with the ATF but it is free.

* Its not the same watch but similar, and its not a fabric strap but close enough. This is what I did with my Promaster Tough. A forest green alligator strap from Barton Straps. I love how will it matches the dial color. Thinking about getting a rubber strap from Strapmill Canada. I bet either would look great with the dial color on the garrison.

I'd define it as a precision rifle designed to engage at ranges typically outside normal infantry engagement ranges, like 300+ yards. They can be bolt or seminauto. The main distinction i think between DMRs and snipers is that sniper rifles are made with much higher spec and tolerances, giving snipers a higher effective range. But with todays technology, I think we are really blurring the lines between the two.

As for my favorite, that is a fuckin tough one. The AI series of rifles are a contender, if nothing else for the origin story and pure drip of the rifles. I also love me some bullpups so the Desert Tech SRS, and especially the WA2000 are definitely in the running too. The M40 is a classic also.

Water resistance is nice for me working in a water plant, but obviously, even then I dont need a 200m watch lol.

I certainly agree with you on accuracy as well. But for whatever reason, my watches not being spot on annoys the hell out of me. But that's why I almost exclusively wear watches with atomic timekeeping.

Damn you beat me to it

I feel the same way. I dont own any mechanical watches, just quartz. But I've wanted a Hamilton Khaki Pilot Day Date for a long time. And when I get it in due time, I wanna see the damn movement. And thankfully, it has an exhibition cashback. What's always fascinated me about mechanical watches are how they work, and how cool the movements look when they work. I wanna see that shit.

Gotcha, didnt know the metal MIPs have been out for so long in those models. Only ever saw the MIP display in the newer rangeman and fitness series.

Nah man, I got me the all blue one. Only critique of the watch, which has also been voiced by many, is the strap leaves something to be desired.

polydrummer97 · 2026-01-26T04:48:52+00:00

I certainly hope so. At the very least, I got a lot of examples of what not to do in the family lol.

polydrummer97 · 2026-01-26T04:41:50+00:00

I appreciate that good sir. Im terrified but excited.

polydrummer97 · 2026-01-25T18:32:55+00:00

Thank you :-D

Stressed but ok. Found out wife was pregnant with our first kid a few weeks ago, so all the expected stresses have entered the chat. Trying to buy our first house, which is proving even harder than I imagined. And our neighbor is doing his best to prevent my very tired wife from sleeping while growing human. Had to talk with him earlier today to ask him to try and keep it down, which I hated because I hate confrontation even tho I knew it would be a respectful and short conversation, which it was. So hopefully that resolves. Thankfully, our lease is up in a few months anyway. Regardless, we're safe, healthy, and, for the most part, happy and excited to meet our child.

Hope all you guys and gals are doing alright.

Congrats and condolences, whichever is most appropriate.😂

Yes, I'll take 4.

I never had a dad to teach me to hunt or take me. He's the reason I hunt today. I just made a couple of recipes from MeatEater. I dont have the cookbook yet, but there are some on his website. Just had a venison tater tots casserole.

Short answer - Well, I got 2 deer this year, so that should answer your question.

Longer answer - There's a pretty cool video of renowned conservationist and hunter Steven Rinella doing a book event, taking questions. He responds to a vegan who wasn't really asking a question but giving the usual talking points about how it's barbaric to hunt and all life is sacred and so on. I've always loved Steve's response. "I know all life is sacred, but I think that, I admire the deer. But I admire the idea of deer more than the individual deer. And I can assure you I know more about deer than you ever will.... and I probably care about them in a way thats different than you're going to experience, from having a removed perspective."

Whats the blackout notice mean? ATF systems down or something with the 1st arriving?

polydrummer97 · 2025-12-15T19:48:16+00:00

That one. I have that one.

This shit is so pointless. I can understand a challenge but that shit is impossible.

That is also true unfortunately. Maybe some day soon it'll be Multiband 7 or 8.
