    Making 308 sexy again

    IIRC, Dad gave me the .308 742 WoodsMaster in '82, I bought the AR-10T in '12, and have only been bumped fr the hunt by the .300WM or now it'll be the 35W. I look forward to seeing your project.

    Techies: submit solution please

    Thank You gentlemen, these are excellent ideas I shall forward to the Board. I've been using ProtonMail for years, it works great IMHO. I'm not worried about "BigBrother" so to speak, it's the Google/CCP ties I'd like to see them snip out. What we've witnessed in the YouTube/Google spheres...

    What Gun Has Disappointed You?

    The FN FS2000. It is SO MUCH of a BullPup, that's it was literally too small for me. To contort and weasel and go yoga for a decent shot? No. The quality of the everything about the thing was gorgeous, but it wasn't going to ever be used for offense or defense, just for giggles....

    If you could only pick one gun as a carry gun for the rest of your life, what would it be?

    No hate here, once these CMR and PMR-30s are broken in, I'm on the same page.

    The UP is full, but you guys might fit in...

    OMG no, it's horrible, it IS full up with coyotes, wolves, and dogmen, and grizzlies!? Yup, some yahoo brought caged up Alaskan grizzlies down for "environmental balance", oh wait, that may be an enhancer for this group........hold on......

    GranTurismoS ; Maserati ?

    Well, the "problem" isn't usually the car it's me and Italia and KTMs; parts. This one only has 51K miles on it, but as you note, when they have certain replacement needs but the parts are a global scavenger hunt......? I'll look into this SkyHook aspect. An Italian anything, but a 4.7L Ferrari...
