  1. What brand of trailer tires do y’all have on you’re RVs? Grand Design puts Westlake radials on their new builds and some sizes don’t have great reputations, usually called China bombs on the GD FB pages and forums. We have put 2k on them since August and I have considered going ahead and upgrading to Goodyear Endurance in the same size (ST225/75R15 LRE).
  2. Circular error probability zero. Impact with high-order detonation. Have a nice day.

    Nope, mostly young white guys, 25-35 from what I have seen. I have never waited in line but I have driven by the line before 8am to get some breakfast and then shown up between 8 and 8:30 to go in. Everytime I've went in that early I have found something that I wanted. My local Academy just puts all the ammo on a roll around shelf by one of the registers and once inside you line up at that one and make your selection before moving to the register.
  5. Barrel of a Barrett sticking out of the front window of an armored Raptor isn't something you see everyday.

    Getting old sucks

    Should have just killed her and blamed it on a one armed man.
  7. The performance that really broke up the band ...
  8. Framing/Rig builders hatchet. Roofing hatchet typically has a movable pin to set shingle spacing.

    Starlink

    Off grid solar powered application mainly as access point for security system. Battery storage to provide 150W power for 3-4 days of solar downtime would be prohibitively expensive. Cellular solution with 20+mbs speed is <20W.

    Starlink

    150W is a non-starter for my application. That's too bad.

    Any idea for power consumption of receiver and router setup? Looking with respect to an off-grid location what is going to be setup with solar/battery system.

  13. TAC allotment for RS has been 51/49 comm/rec forever. Who cares how many days it takes for each sector to catch their allotment? Texas gets the short stick vs eastern gulf due to the way they have count fished on structure, reported catch and shitty fishing weather when the season typically starts. We only get 6% out of the rec catch allotment vs Florida with 45% of the rec allotment. My main beef is guides fishing out of the rec allotment and getting the extra days to do it. That sucked. The 2019 plan is better regarding allowing the states to manage but the path to get to that point sucked over the last 10 years.
  14. Some overstatement here ^^^ but my biggest beef is guides fishing from the rec allotment vs commercial, especially when they push for catch allotment on the recreational side.
  15. Purse seiners. I believe they used some of the pogy fleet to chase schools of reds off the beach even using scouter planes to local large schools. https://gulfseafoodnews.com/2016/02/28/missing-redfish-documents-blackened-history-of-gulf-icon/
  16. This is a good one. Had two paper plates at my Dads when it hit and was wishing I had bought some during a store run the Saturday before. It sucked trying to conserve water and cook meals at the same time.
  17. I posted a couple of times in this thread about my plans for connecting a power inlet and using a breaker interlock device. I will probably still do it but am thinking about making measurements upstream of the main, after being switched, checking for voltage feed though. I expect any breaker failure stay open to happen on the switch transition.

    Well, I'm down about 2k rounds after last night. Accidently left my truck unlocked and the fucking thieves checking door handles got lucky and snagged my range bag and some other shit. Had 200 40SW, 150 9mm, 100+ 5.56, 200 22 mag, 1K+ 22LR, 40 30-30 and about 10 XDM mags and 4 Buckmark mag. Hearing and eye protection too . Shit! I hate a thief!
  19. Buy non-ethanol gas, add fuel treatment. Rotate out your storage into vehicles. I normally have 2 cans at the house and a boat with 60gal a couple miles away. Gonna add a couple more cans in storage and every 3 months pour oldest into a vehicle and refille. Maybe so the same with a couple of water cans.
  20. I have a 3400W Ryobi inverter that is 85#. With wheels and a handle it is easy to wheel around and 85# is not too bad lifting into the back of the truck. Not as quiet as the Honda and Yamaha but only $550 so there's that.
  21. Amel 54 for the win. Two masts, not two hulls. I said this the the cruising thread but buy a 10yo hull for ~$500k, spend $50-80k on retrofit/updating, then sail it around the world for 5 years, spending $60-80k a year, sell it for $350k+ when done.
