Waiting on one more to come back in stock at a bit lower price (MVP Scout in .308) and keeping an eye out for a Martini Henry. Other than that and a couple of more optics, I’m pretty satisfied with what I have.
Yep. First shot was on Weds. Injection site was sore for a day. I work in a hospital and constantly interact with breathing circuits, intubation equipment, etc, so it’s not just for my safety but to also know I’m not a carrier that could contaminate the things that go directly into your mouth...
Good news: my mother with COPD made it through her quarantine. Bad news: now my Dad who had a lobe of his lung removed a couple of months ago has it and is not doing well.
also, I got the first shot yesterday, booster scheduled for three weeks from now.
Parents are out of quarantine. Mom is still very fatigued but able to get out of bed. Dad will be getting an antibody test. All in all, not a bad Christmas present.
Looking to purchase an entry level (<$200) low power variable optic with a 1-4x or 1-6x magnification, preferably with an illuminated reticle. I'm looking to try a cheaper but functional lpvo to see if I like the concept before investing in a more expensive one.
Looking for:
Truglo Tru...
Called my mother yesterday to let her know I'd be dropping by on Dec 26th to meet her and my father outside for a brief exchange. She just had kidney stones removed and had been running a fever and her O2 sats had been in the high 80s since Friday. My family routinely crosses the line from...
Update: The Redpoint Arms 9mm snap cap and the free app from G Sight work pretty well together. The stand is just a straight up cheap selfie stick, but it works for this. Also, I assume its par for the course for any brand of the laser snap caps, but this one sits snugly in the barrel and...
Looks like the first doses locally will begin on Tues. If I get it, I'll keep INGO updated. https://www.wdrb.com/news/national/covid-19-vaccine-shipments-begin-in-historic-us-effort/article_0b9e2c5e-ba7f-5bbc-a5e1-0146963bc85b.html

This is pretty awesome. The art depicts mastodons, giant sloths, ice age horses, and other megafauna. These paintings in Columbia date from 11,800-12,600 years ago (looking at you, Younger...
Thanks for the info on that. I downloaded the G Sight LTP app and verified it worked with a cheap 9mm boresighter and a piece of cardboard. Went ahead and ordered a 9mm cartidge and stand from Redpoint Arms. Might as well since its only about $40 ($30ish for just the light, otherwise known as...
The hospital I work in expects the first doses to arrive in a couple of weeks, enough for probably 10% of employees. High risk direct patient care workers look to be the first in line, but the KY governor is struggling in the polls so who knows where he'll send them. It is voluntary as of now...
Louisville metro area (healthcare update):
Cases and deaths are rising pretty quickly. Hospitals are talking about going back to elective surgeries only and the number of workers on furlough is increasing. No fatalities in my dept, but so far we've had a few people lose family members. Being...
I didn't realize until it arrived that it wasn't just your typical airsoft quality "clone" with the same dimensions, but rather a full-on forgery when I saw the Surefire logo on the side. Not the greatest excuse in the world, I know. Hopefully the description will be enough for a person...
