    Talk to me about the XLR Element

    I have the single lock on a cz 457 and it's pretty damn solid, not hiking with it, didn't think I needed the extra lock. If it was for a hunting rifle I would have. Everything from MDT I've purchased has been very high quality

    You can get the double lock MDT folder mechanism. Either on their chassis or any other one with a buffer tube or AR style butt stock attachment

    What muzzle brake are you slapping on your Mossberg Patriot Predator 6.5 CM ???

    Probably doesn't matter, find one you like. Mossberg are a going to be hit or miss on accuracy leaning more towards miss...a brake isn't going to change it either way. Just make it louder and reduce recoil.

Drinking at the Rendezvous there would often be bears...

    Aftermarket Stock for Sako S20 Hunter

    Pretty sure the weight difference is .2lb between the two. I keep the precision on mine for comfort, the weight was negligible. With scope/bipod/silencer I'm just under 12lbs in 308.

    Vivobarefoot Novus Mid size (or user error) issue

    Helps with balance, strengthening all the muscles that atrophy in modern shoes or ones with arches. Allows you to run on the pads/balls of your feet easier which is better for your joints, modern shoes have to put all the foam padding in the heel to make up for foot striking wrong.

    your good (or not so good) customer service interactions of late

    Called Whites Boots about my boots squeeking a year after they fixed them for squeeking due to a broken foot bed. They sent a return label within 5 minutes and mentioned they'd probably replace them with a new pair. Same experience with Axil and my GS 2.0 left buds amplifier buzzing.
