Off Topic / Desert Tech affiliated with polygamy cult?
« on: September 11, 2016, 08:00:25 PM »
Saw a show on A&E that seemed to indicate Desert Tech is affiliated with the Kingston Clan, an apparent polygamist group. Has anyone heard of this Kingston clan? I know some of the DT members' last name is Kingston. And I found this:

Wondering if you guys have heard of this, through Google some other gun forums have brought it up.  I was very strongly considering an MDR but if this is true, there's no way I'm supporting child abusers not to mention their many other crimes. A few background articles for those interested:

Political Discussion / Melania Trump

Basically plagerized an entire portion of Michelle Obama's speech. It's just sad what a joke the GOP has become.

General Discussion / DL 1/3N Battery locally?
« on: May 15, 2016, 09:27:37 AM »
Anyone know where to find this 3v battery (for aim point pro) locally? Tried Longs photo area but they didn't have it. Amazon won't ship it here.

Off Topic / Any gin drinkers?
« on: December 07, 2014, 03:31:42 PM »
Trying to think of a Xmas gift for my dad.  He likes his gin martinis so I thought maybe I could get him a bottle of something special or unique. Any ideas?

Anyone use Tipton or A-Zoom?  Is one better than the other?  My wife has a pretty bad flinching problem with the 9mm and am hoping this will help as a training aid.  I could use the practice too.

Firearms and Accessories / Magtech
« on: September 11, 2014, 11:12:14 AM »
OGC is running a good deal on 5.56 (34 cents/round) so I picked up a case.  I'm assuming this stuff is equivalent to Federal XM193?  Is it reloadable?  The primers look different than my Fed (sorry I'm not a reloader but I save my brass for a buddy, don't want to mix them if there's a difference).

Saw one of the vendors doing a pre show sale so figure it must be getting close.

Firearms and Accessories / PSA selling AR10 lowers and LPK
« on: August 15, 2014, 11:39:56 AM »
Visited their page and noticed the stripped lowers and LPK's.  I don't see any complete uppers yet.  Anyway, wasn't sure where to put this but figured someone might be interested.

General Discussion / Cheap shell deflector
« on: July 21, 2014, 10:41:14 AM »
Not the kind on the gun but something to keep hot brass from hitting the guy next to me.  I don't want to shell out $50 for a brass catcher since I don't reload.  So far I haven't had an issue with hitting anyone but after I took some hot brass to the neck last time I was at the range I thought maybe I should put up some kind of barrier just so I don't do the same to someone else.  I seen someone use a piece of cardboard in a /\ shape, figure I could do that but thought I would ask if anyone has a better idea.

Firearms and Accessories / Red dot w/ RBUS
« on: July 15, 2014, 05:34:13 PM »
The red dot, or any illuminated reticule really, has always been fuzzy for me.  Not super bad but a 2MOA dot looks more like a fuzzy 4MOA dot to me.  Read somewhere that if you put up your rear backup sight, it becomes clear.  Tried it and what do you know, the dot is crisp now.  I'm not really sure what sort of eye issue this is from (I'm thinking maybe astigmatism) but if you have the same issue, give it a try.

Maybe this is common knowledge, I'm a relatively new shooter, just figured it might help someone out.

Deals and Sales / 10 PMAG 30 Gen 2, $79.95 + Free Shipping
« on: July 12, 2014, 12:46:15 PM »
https://dsgarms.com/dsg-arms-magazine-pack-10-magpul-non-window-mags-w-dsg-patch

I didn't go through the full checkout process but the shipping estimator says free to HI via USPS.  I also checked to see if there were any shipping restrictions to HI like some companies have for 30 round mags but couldn't find anything but double check the fine print.  If you want Gen 3, they have 10 for $100.

If someone (or couple people) want to split an order, let me know.  I'm kinda good on mags but it's a good deal so I wouldn't mind picking up a few more.

Headed out to Kahaluu for a family dinner. Mom sent an email saying Likelike is closed tomorrow from 7pm. I don't see it posted on the DOT website. Can anyone out that way confirm? Is it both directions?

Deals and Sales / AMEX Deals
« on: July 07, 2014, 09:19:14 AM »
AMEX has been putting out some nice deals recently.  Unfortunately they're targeted so everyone is different, you need to login to your AMEX account and click on the "deals for you" tab.  In the last few days I have $25 back for spending $25 at Costco and $20 back for spending $20 at Amazon.  If you have multiple cards, check them all, some people saying they have the deal on one card but not the other (or wifes card but not on theres).
