Then we need to find red dot sights that fit Unertl blocks


Yeah no kidding. And it's funny how the crowds into that stuff pours all this money into those things shoot once every  6 months and then really fast at 25 yards.


And without aiming !!  Undecided  One day a military retired guy was at the range.  He saw a couple black plastic shooters spraying the range.  He could tell they just got out of basic.  He went down to show them how to aim the old fashioned when they shoot.  They were impressed and really liked aiming their ARs.

One day there were two guys at the other end of the range from me trying to figure out a new sight on an AR. One was the father of a friend at work who was an avid shooter.  The three of us were the only shooters.  They would blast away at a target hung at 50 yds, stare at it for a while then ask to go cold so they could walk down to see the target. Nothing!  I finally went over to the garbage can and pulled out a pop can, went down and told them to stop for a few minutes as I put that can in the middle of the dirt berm.  I said to aim for that and the shots ended up 4’ right and 3’ low.  They finally got it on paper.   When I told my friend he was so embarrassed  for his retired Army dad.

My neighbor has a few BGs. Told me you have to have a spotting scope to see those little bullet holes.  Sad

Got to hold one at Naches WA many years ago but it was a muzzle loader. Chuck said he had to have a picture of me holding an AR 15.

That looks like no magazine so it qualifies as a single shot. You'll be fine Joey  Cheesy

You can't prove it's me, my eyes are blacked out!  

Today I purchased primers and powder. At one store I got 1500 primers for 35.52. 

At another store I got 2000 Winchester LR primers and two pounds of Lilgun, 142.00. 

That should about cover what I've used the last couple years.  

Oh, and forty cigars, 140.00.

I got my Remington primers and 300 MP powder today.  Thanks to Amy Parosky at Bruno Shooters Supply adding the powder to my primer order after I placed it.  Saved another hazmat shipping fee.  Great shopping experience.
