    LOL. I've seen news sources use my "white tile" photos. Almost any google search pulls up at least one of my photos on the first page.

    Or a mod locks your new thread with a link to your old one!

    I actually had this happen- met someone from here at a class because I was looking at his rifle and I was like "damn, that's like the quintessential M4C build...wonder if he's on there..." sure enough they were....and I was wearing the eyepro at the class I had just bought from them off the EE about a month previously...

    I love those multi-year threads that you gave advice on, come back a year later giving completely different advice, then contradict yourself again three years later... all in the same thread.

    You know you are getting old or at least around m4 and the like too much when you read a FB post that says "I tragically lost a relative last night" but you read it as "I tactically lost a relative last night". You reread it because it doesn't make sense but you still read "tactically". I know I had only had one cup of coffee but when I finally realized what it said I thought of this post.

    May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one

    You guys are not old. Real "old" is when you drive across college campus and a sexy young blond in a short skirt steps out in front of you to cross the road and your first thought is, "I wonder if her parents know she dresses like that." Now that's old!
    I expend tremendous amounts of energy and time merely to be normal.

    When I meet an attractive, personable and smart young woman, and I think, I hope my daughter ends up like her.
    The Second Amendment ACKNOWLEDGES our right to own and bear arms that are in common use that can be used for lawful purposes. The arms can be restricted ONLY if subject to historical analogue from the founding era or is dangerous (unsafe) AND unusual.

    It's that simple.
