right on. How much use does each one have? I have heard they had some issues with low powered shells, which isn't much of a concern as I'll probably just find what it runs and run that, although I may throw a plug in the tube and use it for game bird hunting some time and I would be bummed if it didn't cycle 6 or 7 birdshot.
I feel like a semi is better in most aspects, only real concern I have with them is reliability.
Any pics?

I've used the other more as I prefer it. I've got a bit more than 500 rounds through it....8 birdshot, slugs, turkey loads. No issues either.
I'm at work so no pics for now

It's only $28 more per month than the HD Hulu streaming ($40 vs $12) and it has the ESPN family as well as the major networks and some conference networks, they marketed it as emphasizing live sports esp college. Seems like a pretty good deal. Has the disney stuff too, discovery, animal planet, other things don't remember exactly. So I get a bit of live TV on the TV, computers, mobile devices, etc, and it's still not that expensive. Hulu Live + Netflix + already have Amazon Prime which includes video stuff + ATT gig Fiber = less than we had been paying Comcast, I think, and that gig fiber hnnnggg ****s all over cable internet

Heads up on the Dot's... My boss ordered some from the Dot's website after I brought a bag in to try. It was actually cheaper per pound after shipping to order from them vs. Amazon after you get to a certain dollar amount. Their shipping rates are kind of funky so you just have to add it up and see. He ordered on Thursday morning and received them Friday afternoon. I still don't have mine (showing in Memphis for 4 days now).

I picked up two google homes for the house. Poverty Sonos but they work great in a house full of tile floor. I don't know why people pay so much for Sonos.

sonos seems to be pretty seamless with different zones and pairs etc, so maybe the music interface is better/more customizable?

Relentless or anyone with experience, thinking about a Deltapoint Pro over an RMR for this pistol I’m sending in. Thoughts? I know battery life sucks but whatever I’ll change them once a month. Seems to be a lot of pros going for it.

It's a great optic. Just chunky and not ideal for someone wanting a co witness setup. But for a range/competition optic - there is nothing better. Not even an RMR. And I say that strictly due to the DP Pro's bigger window. It is also the ONLY optic besides the RMR that made it through Aaron Cowans insane optic tests without breaking (aside from the one where he purposely drops the gun optic first onto cement from shoulder height. Which is...retarded but whatever.)
TLDR: DP Pro is a great dot. Go for it.

Surprised to hear that about the DP pro. Mac was hating on his in his Sig Sour M17 video he did, but I think that probably had more to do with the gun it was on, than the optic. Atleast there's the option to get some screw on rear sight thing so you can actually use the irons unlike the dumb as fuk Sig Romeo optic I have on my P320

I love the DP Pro. But I only recommend it for someone who does't care about having a co witness sight setup.

Every time me and wife think about getting another Great Dane we think about how hard it was to let our big guy go. Nope. Can't do it again. No more dogs.
