    Thanks for getting my bloodwork boiling, Tim.

    I have always found it interesting that Cali sets the standard for the whole country.

    The EU says we are going about it completely wrong (wasting billions), and they have been in the green game longer than us. Hell, They have even re-opened coal fired electric plants over there.

    I can keep going, but have to stop my rant.

    And not to mention the existing electric grid doesn't have the capacity for 100% electric everything, so it's just a pipe dream until the infrastructure is upgraded, which no one is even talking about.

    I honestly wouldn't be and am not concerned. CA can do whatever they want, but the rest of the country does not follow (that's why we have CA spec'd vehicles). At the end of the day, we have to weigh the options. lbs for lbs there are some things just better for energy. I don't believe in coal because I've grown up around strip mining and been to foreign countries that still use it to know that it's just bad. Diesel on the other hand is equal on energy ratio. Electric...I guess we'll get there, but I don't think I'll be alive by the time it's 100% full on. I'm not gonna live to worry about shit I can't control.

    Change of subject.

    Going w a new build to shoot heavy rounds as quietly as possible for hunting.

    300 blackout on my pistol lower for suppressed shooting. Not a match since the lower is fr my springfield but it'll shoot the 220 grain rounds quietly!

    You guys notice something different?

    Dave, if Mark doesn't want it then I'll take it. I need a bigger saw to use on the family farm up on Ohio. My Poulan Pro shit the bed on me earlier this fall.

    Roger. Looks like Mark is going to grab it. If something should happen, I'll let you know.

    I did as well the first time I was stationed over here, back when it was 802 Housing. That is all new now. I live further up in Mololani this time closer to North Beach, and I can see the 13th tee (in the distance) from my front porch.

    Yeah, my son and I came back in 2019 for a father/son trip before he joined the Corps. All the old officer housing was gone, almost unrecognizable.

    I foresee it becoming very popular because it’s quite literally half the price of a pro eagle.

    Ditto. It's on my Xmas list. I didn't even know they made this. I'm supposed to get an email about new products. Thanks HF! And I hope I didn't kill Adam's sale.

    I just happened to see it in Matt's Off-road Recovery's most recent video and was like OMG.
