    CarbonSix Holiday Sale Order Status

    Speaking from experience, only pay with a credit card that has a good dispute policy when dealing with companies like these. You'll need to document why you're disputing so far after the deadline to dispute. C6 will drag it out until you don't have any recourse and their return policy is the...

    Considering Switching to Full Synthetic Oil

    Do some research first. I'd stay 5k or less even with synthetic. That is if you plan on keeping the vehicle for a while. If it's a lease then do as you please.

    CarbonSix Holiday Sale Order Status

    It takes a while when you have to send a barrel back and forth multiple times before the customer gives up and accepts the level of quality they churn out. That pushes back the lead times quite a bit. But hey, yours might be a good one. Just don't check headspace on it or look down the chamber.

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    Are you bragging about a gut shot? Bullets are expensive but practice is cheap insurance. Edit: I know you can shoot. Just busting your balls a little.

    Broadhead weight vs Insert weight

    Your new inserts will weigh something. Usually 10-13gr for a standard insert. It may not make a difference if you are not on the edge of being underspined. From a pure weight perspective you shouldn't see much if any perceptive change.

    Any firefighters out there?

    If you get an EMT and a red card you can usually detail with a wildland crew for a couple weeks at a time as medical coverage. The pay is good and you're basically working when you want to.

    They think if all the trees burn they can't make any more rifle stocks.

    When did sights become so expensive?

    To each their own but mine have disappointed me. My black gold sights have fallen apart quicker than any others I've used. They started with loose tolerances which makes manufacturing easier and cheaper. They do have the best fiber on the market though. I'm not a fan of the spot hog yardage...

    When did sights become so expensive?

    Sights got expensive when people started paying more for them. The market wanted slider sights and they built them better. Some of the cheaper built sliders should be $125-150 max. Those $400 black gold sights are a real disappointment. They should be in the lower price range. A nice...

    Amazon deliveries?

    Sounds like surepost. They've been doing that for years. Typically USPS takes it the last mile but if they don't go to your door normally then it ends up at the post office.

    New career, getting out of law enforcement

    Do you enjoy working for someone else? Why not start your own business. You set your own hours. I don't know what you'd do but security consultant could work. I'd pick a business that doesn't require much overhead so you can be more profitable and pivot if need be. Recently my wife got sick...

    Quick ear plugs

    You bought inside the ear pro. Look earlier in the thread for examples of outer ear protection. They are more convenient and much more comfortable

    Justice finally served in Utah

    With this guy and all his other troubles, there were accusations that he knew people in high places. WBC, Think of this like Al Capone getting pinched on tax evasion.

    Quick ear plugs

    Those are the best on the market for outer ear protection. I used them when working fire/saw work. I did not like shooting at animals with ear pro in so I only did that once. I've always enjoyed hearing the impact, especially if I can't spot it. It gives me more info to go on.

    No one wants to pour their heart and soul into something that's a lost battle with no support.

    This is one of the reasons I opted not to go into this field years ago.

    Justice finally served in Utah

    Usually, it's a broken system that makes it hard to hold people accountable. In this instance there was a lot of evidence over a lifetime achievement for him. The feds were just able to finally make something stick.

    Justice finally served in Utah

    Wow, that's not right. Document 1 violation ever 23 hours. Sure is easier to find one on the interstate than in the woods.

    Didn't do much to shut him down. Seems soft for the feds but way better than the state would ever do.
