What brand is the scope? I'm assuming it's a red dot.

Aimpoint Micro T1. one of the GOATs IMO. I took an Advanced Carbinecraft class a few weekends ago and more than half the class used Aimpoints. they're slick and have over 5yr battery life off a single CR2032. I leave mine on setting 8 (the first 6 are Night Vision settings) and have never turned it off.

Hunting rifle and hand gun

I own some little POS pistol that my dad got me a couple of years ago. Sits in its bag, unloaded, locked. If I needed it I'd never get to it in time, and I'm not a gun hobbyist. Not really sure why my dad got it for me, I've never had an interest.

Reminds me of a joke I once heard.




Alfred Briggs was a prisoner in a high security jail, serving a thirty year sentence. In his youth he had been famous for robbing gun stores all over the country.

Even after he was arrested, tried and sentenced, Alfred had kept his secrets and no one had ever discovered where the guns were hidden. He was married and his wife, Sally, sent him regular letters about everyday problems at home.

Alfred knew for a fact that his letters were opened and read by the authorities, but still he enjoyed receiving the news from home.

One day Alfred was given a letter from his wife. He opened it and read, 'Dear Alfred, I've decided to plant some potatoes in the back garden near to the white fence. When do you think is the best time for potatoes to be planted?'

Alfred wrote this in reply, 'Dear Sally, You can plant potatoes in two or three weeks' time, but whatever you do, don't plant them in the back garden. This is very important! Please don't plant them there!'

A week later, Alfred was given another letter from his wife. 'Dear Alfred, You won't believe this! Last week ten policemen arrived at the house and dug up all of the back garden.'

Alfred wrote back, ' Dear Sally, Now is the best time to plant potatoes.'

this doesn't sound like a government drone.

You just made someone's job at the CIA easier.

I have a clean record and all my guns are registered, they would be wasting their time.
