I was worried this was about the College Football Playoffs.

That's what I paid yesterday.

Went through 80% of the ones they had out and picked the biggest I could find... 25.15 lbs!

I inject and smoke with seasoned pecan wood. Thanksgiving turkey is my moment to shine.

Europtic has big sale in Leupold demo and blem scopes



Thanks for the link.

Damn good deals in there. The blemished part worries me a little, but with firearms and the industry as a whole I find most blemishes are something I would never notice.

My step kids found out I had an oil field name and began calling me that along with some other family members.

I didn't mind as a younger man but at my age now, it's sorta stupid.


Is it "Foreskin"? Do you disappear when the work gets hard?
That hit our local news here in Shreveport.

She didn't have to register as a sex offender because the kid was 17. :wtf:

If you like the Vortex product line


I have never looked through one. I'm thinking about running up to bass pro just to look through it.

I've been a Leupold purist since I was a kid.

Someone asked about my budget, I'd say up to $800.
She went from not that hot, but very eager to motherfrickin' Danny Devito as the Penguin in the Batman movie.

I would definitly buy a Vortex, they are great scopes, but I would probably go a little higher than their crossfire - II series. I have a Diamondback which they may not still make, but it is a great scope.


Something like this?

Vortex Diamondback 3.5-10x50mm

I'm just window shopping, but thinking about replacing my 40mm objective 3x9 Leupold VX-1 for a newer and bigger 50mm objective after deer season.

So I have been browsing optics planet and I have a few questions, as well as, I am open to any suggestions.

Is the VX-Freedom series kind of like their old "Hunter" series? Low end line compared to like a VX-3HD?

What about Vortex? I hear good things, but is it because of the price? That seems pretty cheap to be decent quality.

So... his ground is open to lease?

Their area is good.

Wonder if they changed it to Louvre123?


Is the question mark part of the password? Because you have to have a special character.

I'm guessing it's now "Louvre1$"...

I drive past the house I grew up in twice per day, at least.


I no longer live where I grew up, but I still deer hunt across the road from my childhood home since my family kept the adjacent timber property and only sold the home place when we moved.

I know the family that owns it, and have gone over to say hello a few times. It's like time traveling every time I walk in that house.
