    My fiancé had a dream I bought an AR-15... It's a sign! But actually I'm looking for recommendations for a few months from now when I buy one. I don't want to spend over 1500 on the initial price and I want a free floating rail. I like the colt 6920 but the one I like isn't a free floated rail. The other one I've been looking at a lot is the Smith and Wesson M&P 15T. Opinions?
    Not really looking for a tactical thing to mount everything in the world to just yet, but I do want a rail for a grip, maybe a flashlight, or maybe something else...

    Hahahaha. He would've made that account before he was banned but I wouldn't doubt it. If not, whoever it is, you're still screwed until you meet someone in person

    Took first place in all 7 scoring categories the bridges are scored upon as well as first in a mini competition food drive by raising almost 80% of the total cans collected by the 13 schools. Headed to nationals next month! Total score was $5.4 million and second place overall was AKTaco's Oregon State trailing far behind with over $9 Million :luvya:


    Here's the bridge sporting 2500 lbs of angle iron hanging from the decking surface with only .1" of deflection

    And "team mohawk" as we came to be known following awards

    :laugh: Didn't even realize there was a joke to be made about Idaho and potatoes there haha

    I was just admiring the extreme clarity and resolution of the photo and wondered what sort of camera could produce it :p

    That was my second guess. I have no idea what camera took it, but it was the only photo I could find.
