No, no SKS on layaway this time but if they still have it when this one goes to pay off the 9mil then we may do so then. Or go ahead and put it on our emergency credit card

Good-Good.

What other kind of emergency could necessitate the card? Lol.

His blood feud with the Argonians

Well usually I use the credit card if I leave my debit at home, or if I need to make a large purchase (such as an appliance, car maintenance, etc.).


Khajiit better than lizard. No steal. Make you happy!

Hickok45 liked the standard version of the handgun Khajiit got better than the version this one went with. Still said both weapons were good though.

Guess what finally came in today!

Kitty says it is a Daniel Defense DD5V1 .308/762x51 with an M-Lok handguard!

Here he is with my new Vortex optic on it

Close Up

It just barely fits in the case with the optic on

The Deets


It did not come with iron sights, which surprised me, so it is a good thing I bought the Vortex a few weeks ago. I think I am going to go to Magpul's website and buy some flip up front and rear sights so I have a backup. Reading the rifle's description on Daniel's website, it says it can take a SR-25 magazine, so I will probably buy one of those from Magpul as well. The rifle came with a Magpul 20 round pmag as it is.

I just got it, so I have not shot it yet. But I already changed out the buttplate with an alternate one it came with that fits into my shoulder better. It also came with these little wing things for the charging handle that I will try putting on. But that will have to wait until I take it apart, wipe it down, and re-oil it. I can't get at the tiny little screw holes for them with the rifle assembled.

I also noticed that the charging handle is really stiff. It is a lot harder to pull back than my Sig M4. Maybe that will clear up once I wipe off the packing grease and re-oil it.

Anyway, now I am ready for those Deathclaws and Albino Radscorpions!

Nice .

Khajiit sees $$$!! Nice piece o’weaponry!!

Is that Freya checking out the gun?

She says, “Ooh, my hooman has sharp clawz!”

I took it apart and wiped down the packing grease. Except for the barrel. I forgot I only have a 5.56 bore snake. So I ordered one today, along with a second magazine and a set of iron sights.

I tried changing out the little wings on the charging handle, but I stripped one of them, and could not get the original off. Naturally it was the one on the left side (which I use the most). So I just left the originals on.

The charging handle is still stiff, though not as bad as it was last night. Maybe I just need to work it a bit to smooth it out.

Khajiit suspects the charging handle will get better with use.

Anyone here buy ammo online?

Aye, but I doubt Khajiit will benefit from my experience since I don't buy from Elsweyr stores

I used to, from my uncle's store. Some jurisdictions can't be mailed to.

I have never bought ammo online. When I go shooting, I prefer to buy the ammo I am going to use at the range. That way I don't have any ammo with me driving there and back. That gives the police less opportunities to hassle me if I am pulled over.

I never went to pro ranges. Usually a spot out by the river bar, shooting into the high embankment.

Put out a sheet to catch casings and ship em to my uncle to reload.

If I lived out in the country I would just go in my back yard and shoot, like hickock.

In Hickok45's name...Life is good...Amen.
