Says the guy with a .308 SCAR

 

Also spent a couple years as a 240 gunner. Good fun.

 

I reeeeeally want a .308 socom too, such a smooth rifle.

 

Poor dude flipped his boat over by Rabbit Island and someone towed him over and he beach his boat. Flagged me down in the middle of the road. Tried to tow it up to the trailer snapped ever rope he had. Moral of the story is tomorrow I am going to go get a heavy duty tow strap for just in case reason.

 

I said it before, and I'll say it again... Tacoma range day?

 

I can see the smile on your face now!

 

Looks like a fun / interesting senerio.....who's trailer is that? Extended tongue? How heavy is that pontoon? Is the sand soft? Is the boat filled with water? Did you get the boat home? . I would've helped if i was deRR.

 

I've been looking for a SOCOMII for half a decade now

one day....

 

hACKmans Customs... I like that.

 

Sand was soft as hell the trailer sunk into the sand like nothing, the real problem was the boat was stuck in the sand and the winch on the trailer wasn't strong enough to pull the boat out of the sand. I just helped pull the boat up on the sand more and then a tow truck came with a tow straps and a pulled it right up. The boat had twin 70 engines and everything was water logged cause of flipping so it was decently heavy for a tiny boat. The trailer is his, he had a 2wd Tundra that kept getting stuck and couldn't get down as far(not knocking or bragging). Felt bad but still tried to help, you know try spread a little aloha. We were trying to flag down other trucks they would stop and research pier would let us use the straps cause of liability reasons.

 

fired one in Vegas maybe 6-7 years ago and fell in love.

 

Carried the 249 for a little while as a boot until the realized I made a better team leader lol

 

Good man!

 

all the other trucks we tried to flag down would just keep passing us like dude people are waving you down from the water obviously something is wrong.

 

favorite non hunting rifle I fired was a Colt SOCOM 5.56 loved it good recoil and smooth as hell

 

No garand fans?

 

I did it from E2 to early E4 then same, got promoted to fire team and then squad leader. Sometimes I miss the good old days or riding in the turret or providing over watch/covering fire. Life was so much easier.

 

Got one but it's the only 30-06 I own so it doesn't get much use.

 

It's my favorite.

 

Welcome to TW.......the best thing to do is buy all the stuff you want and do it yourself, at least that's what I did. I only had to get someone to weld in a second battery tray, of course I'm a 1st Gen so placement will be different but there's a good dual battery thread on here you can get ideas Dual Battery Setups! Lets see them! Multiple Battery's Thread! but get the Blue Seas ML-ACR unit to connect the battery's it's awesome.....actually I just saw a group buy on dual battery wiring too **IBS GROUP BUY** Ends March 19.....but like I said Blu Seas ML-ACR....easy peasy and it's awesome!
