What did you get for black friday?
« on: December 03, 2024, 07:36:34 AM »
Me 1000 rounds of 556 Winchester white box.  I did it mainly for the lake city brass.

The other had an extra $200 tax stamp.    Surefire 556 socom rc2  https://www.surefire.com/socom556-rc2/   primary arms had them 450 off.


The misses got something sparkling and way more expensive.   I love when they don't drop hints, they send you a link and say I want this for xmas.
I always break all the clay pigeons,  some times its even with lead.

For the longslide: Slide, barrel bushing, trigger, ejector, assorted tools. Only need sights and ignition system, then ready to start assembly.

For the Charger MWS: Rapidex knob for the rear sight. Come on, do you REALLY see 007 futzing with a tool to adjust a rifle sight in one of the movies when dialing a knob is both more cinematic tension-building AND less 'one more dependency vulnerable to loss'?

Assorted crap around the house: Some "botanicals collection" and Christmas Lego sets my mother wanted, and one *I* wanted but missed the original back in '89 and as it was ALMOST missed out on getting the "remastered" edition.

Now I gotta figure out something nice for the fuzzballs... they won't use nestboxes preferring neighbors' trees, or I'd try to build them some nice toasty ones with good insulation and solar-powered heating.

Flashlights, knives, ammo. The usual stuff. Plus a Tire Hero Wireless Air Pump/Portable Tire Inflator, and various cables and things form Statik. A PROOF wallet made by the guys at Milspin. Some stuff from Thrym. A Titanium KeySmart Rugged and other stuff from KeySmart. A pair of Enchroma sunglasses that are supposed to correct red-green color blindness. I guess I don't see green very well so that's called Deutan. If you don't see red very well that's Protan. They make sunglasses for each that are supposed to help with the red and green cones overlapping in your eyeballs. If you're blue-yellow color blind it's called Tritan and you're screwed. But at least none of the 3 conditions is total color blindness. I bought a bunch of other stuff, either during the sales or right before, including a bunch of stuff from Nite Ize. I even got my friends' dogs a color-changing ball for Christmas they can chase around.

I'm still waiting for my Woobie Hoodie Pullover to ship from Texas. It's made from the same stuff as a G.I. poncho liner. Why is a poncho liner called a woobie? Because you woobie cold without it. ;) The term could be from the name for a kid's security blanket in the 1983 movie Mr. Mom. Poncho liners weigh practically nothing, can be stuffed and compressed in a small space, are quick drying, and will even keep you warm when they're wet. They have ties on the corners that can be attached to the grommets of a poncho, making a lightweight sleeping bag. Sadly, we weren't issued poncho liners when I was in the army, but one of my roommates in Germany had one on his bed. The other 3 of us had blankets we bought from some guy in a van. Mine is on my bed now, 42 years later.

How much do veterans like their woobies? Here's Mat Best singing about it. He's a former United States Army Ranger who served five deployments with the 2nd Ranger Battalion, before working as a private contractor for the Central Intelligence Agency. He's also a co-founder of Black Rifle Coffee Company.

I never heard anything about that. My information sources are limited.

Leftist source, but Hafer tried to stick a shiv in Kyle Rittenhouse.
