I have often seen questions on Facebook, forums, etc. about "Can I shoot if...?"
My personal take on "Can I shoot if...?" has always been that I am not going to shoot someone unless I reasonably feel that if I do NOT shoot them, I could not stop what they were about to do, and what they were...
The test ammunition is the 75gr .223 gold dot.
The test optic is a Kahles K16i. It weighs 17oz, per product literature.
The mount, and subject of this test is a custom mount that Andrew Bobro made for me. It is a 30mm with 0MOA bias, and the lever on the RIGHT side. The clamping springs...
The K16i is currently the king of the hill in 1x-N optics, arguably. So, naturally, I had to have one for my "damn the cost" build...
Here is a short review of it, leading up to actually shooting with it in my review of the bobro mount's RTZ.
First, the weight. It's the first thing you...
This past weekend, I attended a VTAC Nightfighter course.

The first day was spent repeating weapon manipulations training and doing some "house keeping", such as verifying zero, shooting and transitioning to support side, and some...
What is entailed in filing both a harassment, as well as monetary harm type suite against Louisiana? Can one sue a state?
That state is like a virus. I wish I had never lived there. They are STILL trying to mess with me, even though I moved 8 months ago. Millions of other people, as well...
It performs as advertised, and I'm impressed!
Weapon/ammo used in all videos: 16.1" DDM4 with mid-length gas system, and VLTOR A5 system using standard un-marked Vltor buffer and Vltor standard spring. PMC XTAC M193
Bare Muzzle
I will preface this by saying I used an Aimpoint and a magnifier, and fired from a bench while seated, using my magazine as a monopod. The rifle used was my Daniel Defense 16.1" DDM4 equipped with a CHF chrome-lined barrel of government profile, utilizing a mid-length gas system, a Surefire 212a...
During the 1.2 years that I owned it...
...Both front control arms due to rotted bushings.
...Transmission had to come out to fix a leak. It still leaked.
...N23 recall disabled 4WD low and I had to buy a module out of Canada to fix it.
...Sunroof plastic track broke.
...Water pump went...
I could go on about how advanced the hospital is, involving no paper charts, all electronic, etc. and serving Mahi Mahi with mango sauce and the like in the cafeteria and the gourmet coffee shop and Subway there, or how I like the roads, or how cheap it is here, living in a good area for...
When I signed up for this course, Nate informed me that it would not be "what I was used to". He explained that Frank taught a way of thinking, instead of "a specific "thing" to do". We are all familiar with "hold it this way", etc. and yes, while Frank taught that as well, he also did indeed...
A while back, VG mentioned the Vltor A5 to me. I finally got around to buying one, and trying it out.
Subjectively, it felt smoother, and shot flatter.
Objectively, it was much less sensitive to back-pressure from being suppressed, while not compromising performance with "weaker"...
Which company is the Lexus and which one is the Toyota? I've read reviews which claim opposite of each other. Going strictly by price, the Z6i retails for more than the K16i. But...which product is the better one, optically, durability-wise, etc. I used to think it was the same assembly, but the...
I've done some looking around, and it is insanely difficult (impossible) to actually be a healthy person, support what you agree with, etc.
GMO's in the food.
Corporate monopoly.
Hormones in plants, even, etc.
A few months back (6-8?), I decided to eat organic. It costs about the same...
I don't have, or want children, but I finally get what my Dad saw when I was a child and he watched me open the things that he had gotten for me.
My entire childhood, I couldn't wait to open presents for Christmas, and I couldn't understand why my parents enjoyed it so much. I was the one...
Just curious, what did people GIVE?
-I am giving my Dad a DDM4 16" Daniel Defense carbine with ALG trigger and Rosch Works SL-1 sight/light and Troy rear BUIS.
-I gave my former roommate a MAGPUL stock/forearm for his Mossberg 590a1, as well as 100 rounds of Winchester Ranger 00 for it...
