      Low light training during eclipse?

      I just had this thought pop in my head. Over the course of a couple hours the light situation will be changing from day, night, day. Could make for some range fun if you aren't at work.

      INGO colab. of skilled tinkerers, could be very fun.

      So I had a thought while carousing ingo, seeing crazy talented people make cool stuff. As a former MOD I liked the idea of coming up with events, or projects that supported the community part of the site. This is along the line of thinking like the INGO lower, or ingo challenge coin. But this...

      Anyone have any experience with what adhesive to use when customizing the foam inside hard cases. I'll need to glue the foam to the plastic in one spot, but mostly gluing pieces of foam together. I can see options from Google searches but didn't know if anyone had experience with what to avoid...

      RIP Ron Sexton aka Donnie Baker

      Great comedian. I just now saw from the Bob and Tom show post on FB that he died in Ohio Friday. I had no idea he played so many characters. I only knew he played Donnie Baker but he's also like 3 out of 5 of my other favorites.

      I have a Vortex Sparc (original, not II, not AR) that I got used and it didn't come with the mount. Anyone know with confidence if the mounting footprint of the Sparc is the same as other well known types like Aimpoint or similar? Shopping for RDS mounts is not really easy since most of them are...

      Slow mo guys, faster than a speeding bullet

      Comparing speed of bullet vs rate that glass breaks. Cool video I thought ppl would like to see. I was pretty surprised but wanted to bury that statement here at the bottom to prevent sounding like annoying click bait. Spoiler: glass breakage propagates MUCH faster than a bullet!

      AR charging handle design thought.

      I like to ponder things that I know are way beyond the scope of things I should mess with but it's entertainment thinking. What prevents an alternate design for the charging handle that looks more like a pull cord on your mower? Thoughts that led me down this road: -The charging handles...

      2 gun (rifle/pistol) warmup drills?

      It's been a while since I've been able to get to a 2 gun match. Batesville 2gun may be my favorite gun event and I'm rather eclectic in the type of events I dabble in. That said, I'm rusty but have access to a range and want to get back into it. What are some of your go to drills that are...
