    Alright — let’s get this thing heated!!!

     

    What is the best gun, PERIOD?! 
     

    Now I feel there’s a lot of uses for guns, but if you had to pick one gun, what caliber and what would it be?

     

    Personally, I operate best off the AR platform and would take it in 300 blackout. I can take down decent size game with that and for defense, it really don’t get better than that. 
     

    ...and if anybody states AKs let me just say this — AKs were made by communists for terrorists and that is indisputable. 

    I can tell you after this weekend it wouldn’t be my .54 cal cap lock muzzleloader. It’s an absolute blast to shoot, and practicing over the summer I got to where I could put 3 round balls in the same hole at 50 yds with 90 grains of black powder. Never had a misfire with it before, then this Saturday out in the woods I had a chance at the biggest buck I’ve ever seen, and wouldn’t ya know the cap went off but didn’t ignite the powder charge 🤬🤬🤬

     

     

    As far as what I would actually consider the best, while it’s incredibly subjective, I tend to think of it in terms of what I would want if I could only have one gun to do it all, and to me the only answer is a 12 gauge shotgun due to the versatility.

  2. I agree with going for 2 down 14 and told my friend I thought the raiders should have done It while watching the game. If you make it, you tie with another  td and win by kicking the extra point. If you don’t make it, you can still tie by going for 2 if you score again. The odds of making at least 1 two point conversion on 2 attempts are pretty good.

    I once considered buying a bunch of tables in bulk and re-selling them outside the stadium. Two problems, one, in order to get my price down low enough to make any profit compared to what someone would pay in a store, I'd have to buy a truck load. Two, where to set up for a sale. Not something the Bills or many lots would want to have me there, encouraging that behavior. 

    Honestly you could probably buy them at retail price and mark them up by 25% and still sell out. People will pay for the convenience.

    Joe F. is also the only Bills QB (besides Kelly) that ever won a playoff game. We are still waiting for almost 30 years for that to happen again. 

    Frank Reich would like to speak with you about the greatest comeback in NFL history.

     

    edit: and Jack Kemp has some stories from the AFL days while we’re at it.

    Projecting over a 16 game season...that would be 11-48-5?

    Over the full season, isn't that statistically impossible to stay that poor? 

    Each team has to play 6 games within the division, or 24 games of which there have to be a winner or loser within the division. 

    So they can't do worse than 24-35-5 - can they? 

     

    Caveat: I did just polish off the bottle of Cab Sauv I started yesterday.  So my Maths might be scrambled.

    Taking ties out of the equation if every team split their division games and won no other games, it’s mathematically possible for every team in a division to finish 3-13, for an overall record of 12-52. 11-48-5 seems like it would probably be mathematically possible if one of the ties was a division game.

    I thought it was an egregious call as well. Then I asked myself: what is the alternative? Remember that the Rams player had possession of the ball on the ground. So we have three options, maybe 4:

     

    (1) Incomplete pass. Impossible. The ball never hit the ground.

    (2) Kroft catch. Impossible. He didn't have possession at the end of the play.

    (3) Catch and fumble? Impossible. Kroft didn't have possession long enough, and didn't make a "football move," whatever that is.

    (4) Interception. As absurd as it is (since the Rams player didn't catch the darn ball), it seems more reasonable than the alternatives!

     

    Am I mistaken here? I do prefer to blast the refs, but in this case they may not have had another call they could have made.

    Yes, you are. Specifically your explanation for why a Kroft catch is impossible. At no point did he lose possession.

    If I read her 'dying wish' correctly she wants us to wait potentially over 4 years to replace her. She was smarter than that.

    It also said she wants us to wait until a new president is “installed” as if we’re some tinpot dictator led  banana republic. Agree or disagree with her politics, no one ever accused RBG of being sloppy with language. If she said installed instead of elected, it was intentional. The only logical conclusions that can therefore be drawn from that verbiage are that she wants our system of government overthrown, so her final wishes should be ignored, or she never actually said it, so it should be ignored.

    My ammo falls right out of the reloaded.

    Yeah, I’ll be getting the setup soon. Only affordable way to shoot 300 blackout. 

    Good luck finding components if you don’t already have a stockpile. I just started with reloading this winter before covid got big, and at the time I just bought a couple trays of 100 primers, figuring that would be all I need to get started and try it out. I’ve been kicking myself ever since for not buying them by the 1000 box, as they’ve been harder to find than ammo for the past few months.

    I'm kind of surprised that Biden is blaming global warming cooling climate change crisis for the fires, and is stupid enough to think that people will vote for BIden over Trump because if Trump gets re-elected, "...these hellish events will continue to become more common, more devastating and more deadly,"

     

    The far left nutjobs are the only ones who believe this, and they're already voting for Biden. He's not going to scare normal people into voting for him over this issue.

     

    So weird.

     

     

    You could say the same thing about him tweeting about banning so-called assault weapons in a year with record gun sales, a significant portion of which are to first time gun owners. Makes you wonder if his campaign has data suggesting that the middle/swing voters are a lost cause and he has more to gain by ginning up enthusiasm among his base.

    He was peaceful until he was attacked without provocation.

     

    We was there to lend aid (and was filmed doing so).

     

    Is the act of carrying a firearm supposed to provoke an attack?  He is guilty of being under the age for legal open carry but that is not an act of unlawful conduct to provoke others to attack!

    Even that aspect isn’t a slam dunk, due to some exceptions written into the applicable Wisconsin law:

    Tell me why he REALLY got shot 7 times in the back?


    Because he already showed willingness to use violence against police officers and less lethal attempts to subdue him were ineffective. He then attempted to retrieve a deadly weapon, and the first six shots did not stop him from doing so. It’s pretty simple.

    For the 20th or so time.

     

    Should a cop be allowed to put 7 bullets in the back of someone other than in a case where that person poses a threat where he is pointing a loaded gun at people?

     

     

    If he’s attempting to retrieve a deadly weapon and has already behaved violently during the incident, 100% yes. Waiting until he has the weapon in hand to intervene is how you end up with dead cops and/or civilians.
