    The reason i suggested 33s is not because the trail isnt doable without them but because it took us 3 hours to do that trail because drew got stuck so often on it. I would have been done in 20 min but he got stuck so many times and people were waiting for us a ton to get him unstuck. It just wasnt good feeling knowing you had other people waiting to use the trail and he was having a ton of trouble but got through it non the less.

    He rode the entire trail but took him about 10 times the amount of time it would have taken me. You really would have had to be there. @Dirk Diggler even said he needs bigger tires for that trail.

    Im not trying to argue just telling you our experience is all.

    Edit: Im not complain about how long it took us i actually enjoyed helping him through the trail! I just know some people would get annoyed by it. Likes some of the bouncers coming up behind us.

    Yes but a lot of people that are thinking about going to Hawk Pride will change their mind when they see somebody say I suggest bigger tires. I'm not arguing either I just want everyone to know that they can come out and have fun on smaller tires that's all.

    It's not even Healthcare It's what controls such. I wish I could post my thoughts without getting a perma. It's such a web of issues starting with the graph you posted.

    Any of you fellas had to replace a windshield lately? Looking for a ballpark replacement + labor cost. Huntsville's got so many main roads tore up I'm expecting to replace one soon. Can only do so many repairs to it...

    Southern Auto glass replaced mine a few years ago for like $255. They even came to my work to change it in the parking lot.

    I got lots of spare parts, stocks, LPKs, stocks, buffers, springs etc. so I can probably save you some money. I bet Phil would hook you up with some spare parts too. I’m gonna build me a trash can gun soon!

    They're starting to be available.
    I bought 2 Aero M4E1 lowers yesterday.
    Gonna build a 410 pistol and not sure with the second one. Probably set it aside until I can build the 300 canned SBR
    From experience, the best parts to sepnd money on are the barrel, trigger, and optics. Everything else is just what you like/want. I'm a huge Aero fan. I like the lowers and the way their uppers attach to their rails.
