Happy Birthday Sir!!!

I just purchased an A T Omni AR. And in order to have the features I wanted, like pistol grip, adjustable stock, muzzle brake. I had to have the fixed 10 rd mag. to be NY compliant. That is for a 223/556 rifle, so being that what you are looking at is a shotgun, I'm not sure what the difference would be? But Culver always seems to have a good handle on these kinda things, so his advice is solid. Along with a couple others too. I too have always sorta wanted an AR. I wanted one for a predator rig, and for just plain range plinking and fun. I did a lot of homework and looking around, before buying the Omni. The price was well within my budget for a fun gun. And most all the reviews from people who actually bought and used them, liked them! Along with a member here who had one, and gave a good review to me. It always seems to me that King Andy's unSafe Act, has more questions, hoops to jump through, and just plain silliness, for law abiding folks to interpret. Than the run of the mill criminal, who will just do what they want, regardless of what Kink Andy passes in the dead of night, behind closed doors.

Happy Birthday!!!

Lots of deer. Some trophy bucks. Lots of ticks. Limited access in most of the really good areas. As the older bucks learn to lay up in someone's backyard. But it can be done, in the Pine Bush.

Nice ash.....

Also try walking along the intercoastal, and skipping shrimp bait along docks and cover for some nice redfish and snook. Very inexpensive, and loads of fun!

Happy Birthday!

Ana is such a sweetheart. You better watch it buster! But, lemme know how all that works out for ya????

Crank up some 'Blue Sky' and 'Liz Reed' and have a nice cold beverage of your choosing! We all need "me" time, every now and then. I think tomorrow night, Mrs grampy and I are going grocery shopping after work. Then at 8, we have a dinner reservation at Canalie's in Rotterdam. I got her a nice card and will have some flowers delivered. She is my best friend. Not a day goes by that we don't laugh. I'd be lost without her. I make every day count. As some day it will only be one of us.

When I do partake, I like a sippin whiskey like Crown Royal. Straight up in a rock glass, no ice.

That's why I went to an AR from a bolt action! A quicker follow up shot.

Back when I was 17 and in the Army, we weren't sure if we'd be sent to Nam or not, as things were winding down at that time. But one night after way too many beers, we all got a small tat of our first name on our forearms to help identify us if we got KIA. I know, sounds really dumb, and it was. I've regretted it ever since! But I've recently been thinking about getting a Native American bow, with feathers and crossed arrows, to cover up the one I got way back in the day. One reason is to have a symbol of my partial Native bloodline. And the other reason is for my lifelong love of the bow. I've come close to walking into a shop to see if they could do such a thing. But never followed through. But.....a new tattoo shop is opening in a plaza not far from where I work. Soooo....perhaps I'll stop in one of these days?? Or at this point at almost 63 why bother???

Great thread Chef! I'll be following along. And look forward to the next installment!

Last year I went from a single pin HHA slider, to a fixed 3 pin, set at 20 - 30 - and 40 yards. And I like it! So we did the complete opposite and it worked out for us both!!

Just curious how it works out to 100 yards or so?? As I would be shooting out to that distance, but not much farther. And would it work at night with a light set up?

Hey Thanks!!! Was up there a couple weeks ago. Next time up, I'll stop in and say hi!!

Very Nice!!!! Did it come with a scope?

With all the deer in 4J and the Pine Bush, I have no idea why a crossbow can not be used in there??? Even during the two week crossbow season we have now? Just makes no sense at all. But neither does the current crossbow legislation, that states you need a muzzleloader tag to hunt with a crossbow. The whole thing is just dumb.

All Scorpyd crossbows are awesome! Can't wait to see which one ya got in that box!! I too am looking forward to full inclusion. It's time for it to happen, in my opinion. Perhaps when it comes. I'll upgrade to a Scorpyd crossbow too! That said, I'm a longtime bowhunter, and will prefer to hunt with my bow, as long as my shoulders hold out.

Happy Birthday!!!

My barber uses one to trim up too. I do have my grandfathers, and my father in laws single edge straight razors though. One of my earliest memories is peeking in the door while my grandfather was shaving, and him asking me if I wanted a shave too! The roughest one I ever got was the old double edge razor I used in the army. Have always shaved with a blade though. Never owned an electric razor.

A shout out and a thank you to Moog too! For sending me a scope mount that may work better on this gun, (his suggestion) by getting the scope closer to the rail. Hopefully I'll be able to get to the range, over the upcoming long weekend. Covered up in snow again now. Thanks Brian! For everything my friend.

Thanks Brian! I'll get looking this week.

Where would I find the adapters Dan? moog is sending me a different mount, that may work better than the mount I have, for my new gun. But it is 30mm. My scope is one inch.

Happy Birthday!
