    Anyone in the market for some floor liners. I ordered these and they wont work with my manual transmission. They cover the door sill area just as pictured. I had the same ones in my 06 and I think these are nicer than the weather tech or husky's. Will let them go for $75.00 if you can pick them up in Great Falls. Fits 2016-2018 Tacoma, front w Auto trans.

    my girlfriend is hoping to hear back from a job in Billings tomorrow. Really want her to get it but im way more worried about her commute than mine to fishtail. Even though they only plow half the roads half the time.

    More range time. 100 yards sighting in my red dot and iron sights. No magnification. Sand bag on a bench.

    20180215_122755.jpg

    Then having fun shooting 50 yards standing. Headshots at 25 yards.

    Was really cool seeing a 3 generation group shooting together. Kids were probably 10 or so.

    Not bad but looks like you could use some practice....

    20150719_154929.jpg

    Target posted at 25yrds. Shot Standing for first stage,sitting for second two and and prone for the last one,all unsupported sling only ;)

    ETA second and third stages required a mag change between targets also. All stages are timed as well ;)

    Geissele trigger. You want one. It is hard to shell out that kind of money for a trigger, but you will never regret that you spent it.

    Oh I need lots of practice. LoL

    I would not say I was shooting for accuracy either. When it comes to the AR platform I'm a total rookie.

    I've been tempted to try that larue trigger. I love my geissele SSA-E, but hard to spend that much for multiples

    Currently rocking a stock Wyndham Weaponry CDI with a cheap Bushnell 1x 2 MOA AR Optics Red Dot (although it is a circle reticle).

    Still trying to figure out what grip works best for me while shooting.

    R16M4SFSDHT-1024x343.jpg

    Close in on Maxwell vs using the built in foregrip. I'm finding the barrel shroud gets a bit warm after a few magazines when wrapping my thumb over top.

    I've also discovered that a single point sling sucks.

    I honestly prefer just slick or a minimalist handstop over the AFG and others. I find a close in grip helps me a bit for accuracy when shooting unsupported, but that thumb over "c-clamp" grip really helps you steer the gun quickly when going between targets. I haven't really noticed the handguard getting too warm during my 3 gun competitions, but that's probably just the adrenaline.

    Unfortunately, shooting is a bigger hobbie for me than my truck... Neither are cheap.
