    Correct no cert needed. I'd be into shooting a little bit for sure, my favorite to easily drag out is 7.62x39mm I recommend at Walmart the brand "Tula" make sure of those dimensions though as 7.62x51R will never fit.

    The struggle is real! @Mike likes Tacos you in?

    I can put the thread together and post it up in OC Meetups if we wanna turn it into a small meet+shoot?

    Yeah a little bit too far of a drive for me to go for just one day up to calico. I'd be up for getting a camping trip organized to go wheel and shoot up there in the future.

    Then I can take you guys on some really fun trails :luvya:

    I kid... Kind of

    Some of it is super rocky, yeah. Last time I was out swinging a .308 at steel a jeep came limping by with a broken rear drive shaft. His buddies LEFT HIM BEHIND.

    I've been wanting to try the gatekeeper!

    There is a pretty sketchy spot that's getting more popular hard to describe

    This is my buddy going up the gatekeeper last year I believe, looks fun to me :D

    Thanks, do appreciate. I'll know more soon here but I have a good idea what's going on already.

    Too much prom punch? I know sometimes the people that mix that stuff do a real bad job. Combine that with all the drugs the teenagers do and you're in for a bad time!

    Seriously though hope its nothing too major bro. We got a beach to takeover! :bananadance:

    Never too much Prom!

    Viral sinus infection. Better than I'd hoped but still unfortunate, can't get antibiotics to start fixing shit right away! :facepalm:

    We survived the Miller Jeep trail, damage was had though. Definitely not doing that again until I'm lifted lol :help:

    It was a blast, @Sandtaco and @MADSTEEZE and I showed a group of jeeps what's up, minus one or two little areas where we got a little...ahem...stuck...

    That was by far the hardest trail I've hit yet

    My skidplates got put to damn good use that's for sure. Pics to come, here's a few...

    That was a lot more difficult than anticipated.

    Full armor and sliders recommended.

    I was getting a peculiar rumbling sound from my exhaust on the freeway On the way back whenever I shifted after 3k rpms or so...checked underneath and I banged up one of my cats pretty good, hoping it's nothing serious :angrygirl:

    It was a lot of fun, and almost entirely doable relatively easily until you get to the top of the mountain, the last stretch before the campground. Lots of boulders and huge rocks to climb over
