I'm not able to throw a fastball as fast as I used to. No lie just increased the weight for my bench press and I've had to take 11 days off because my arm is giving me an issue. Unsure if it's related.

Ruger precision ~1,200


Springfield m1a ~1,800



There's a 150 mir on savage right now so the price would be around 750-800 so I want to say it's the clear winner if I can find one to hold and it feels nice
Long range shooting, I would say the RPR will have the best support for aftermarket accessories and pre-cut barrels. For target shootings, it's the only thing on your list with any appeal to me.

-I ride like I'm invisible. Never assume anyone can see you. Weave within your lane in traffic to create movement if you can't break away from traffic. They won't see you going steady but they will notice the movement.

-I slow down at green lights at busy intersections, or where visibility is obstructed. If there is somebody in the oncoming traffic turning left, always assume they will turn left right in front of you (because they always will).

-I try not to ride at night or in the rain. Definitely never ride over wet leaves or gravel.

-Slow down for unfamiliar and blind turns, especially decreasing radius curves. Look forward into the turn where you plan to be, not down at the pavement where you are now.

-Know your bike. Know how it handles at parking lot speeds as well as high speeds. Know exactly how it leans into turns and what the steering angles are.

-Scan constantly. Divide your forward view into thirds. Look at the left third and focus for a few seconds, then the middle, then the right third, and keep going back and forth. You can get better awareness than trying to focus on your entire field of vision. They also taught us this technique in flying school.

I agree and this is the solution to riding a motor cycle. Act like nobody knows you're there, have your own back, take your own precautions etc..

There's 2 types of motorcycle riders. Those who have wrecked and those who haven't wrecked yet. I got my 4 years of fun in and came out scratch free.

2 of the main reasons for selling my bike was the loss of excitement from riding and seeing someone very graphically killed on one at an intersection. Stay safe out there brahs

Lucky. I have a nice round scar where my knee hit the pavement and had a nice chunk missing. Oddly, the missing skin didn't hurt at all. With the little bit of swelling I could easily stack a few quarters inside this thing. This is why I cringe when I see people riding with exposed skin. I had pants on and it burned right through them. And my leather jacket had "slices" in it that would've been very nasty without it.

Also have significantly reduced "reverse" (like back of hand towards forearm) range of motion in one of my wrists thanks to another one. Not sure how when I landed I didn't shatter the wrist.

I forgot the CZ P10C. My bad. I think the Walther PPQM2 is probably the best deal, although the Glock will have far and away the most aftermarket support (mags/holsters/etc)

RE: Motorcycles

Had a ******* on a motorcycle the other day go speeding through a construction zone. Drove right down the middle of the road (between the two lanes going in the same direction) passing in between cars. Weaving in and out, like rules don't apply to him. *******s like that make me rage.

I see the bumper stickers to 'Watch out for motorcycles'. But when they drive like that, screw them.

I wouldn't snitch nor report my guy, it was a complete joke mentioning that question. That FFL is a retired guy, I forgot what he used to do but he wasn't LE. Now that I think of it, if what he was doing was risky, he would have taken precautions to meeting or agreeing to meet me for the first time? Which he didn't.

After the past two weeks, I can say this: any ATF, special agent, or even local cop who wants to rack up gun violations all day long just needs to post some damn ads on Armslist. Some of these fukkers were openly brazen about doing illegal transfers. Fake permits, no permits, sketchy and obvious prohibited persons, etc.
