Nice work, Lou. Who did the artwork in the steel? Done with a laser?

Evening gents! Back from Hermiston. Can't say much for the town itself, but the commute is nice. Definitely way better than I-65 Indiana.

It's a staggering amount of work, and money.

Don't know, can't decide. At least he hasn't given me a deadline yet on my decision.
Go for it Jack. Then you can be rockin the CVOs like Russ!

Nice stuff Chris. I'm a Vortex/Streamlight guy myself. Have the Strikefire/magnifier on the AR. I'm good to 100 yards easy with that. Fired out to 200 but what you have would be better for that. I just don't see my AR for anything that far out. Have a TLR4 on the nightstand gun. For that I like having a laser. For carry I would prefer the smaller profile. @FNGonaRK helped me set my Vortex stuff up right on my AR. Guy knows his way around firearms, that's for sure.

Found out tonight that my niece up in Mass rides a fat boy low, I never pictured her as a ''biker''.
I think that's pretty damn AWESOME.

I have a Viridian green laser and light combo on my bedside table. Nice and durable. My ar just has a Nikon Monarch scope. A black Friday special. I want a Vortex Viper but not worth it considering that I don't shoot much. Mine is a long range 6.5 though. 20" barrel.

My field of view is narrow, but help where I can. < See what I did there… if not, adjust the eye relief.

Watching the Igles and Chiefs. My takeaway is that the Packers aren't very good.
