I talked to mauser this afternoon, he had a renal specialist in checking his case, ordering test and tring to get everything in order. Unfortunatly it will be another day or so. He is hanging in there. Bummed about how long its taking but still making jokes. He feels ok, its just his labs that need fixing.
He wanted me to tell eagle, that they called to tell him his aluminum upper is ready, but he told the girl he didnt want to be coming in with his hospital butt gown and holding his iv bag to pick them up. She said he can wait until as he is out of the joint to pick up and its on hold. He wanted to thank everyone for the support, he really appreciates the kind words. Soon enough he will be out slinging lead down the range. |

So....what OT said.
we are working on getting him a laptop to his room, and I'm gonna go see him Saturday. Mauser says hello to everyone, and while being in the hospital fucking blows, he's at the Ritz Carlton of hospitals at least. |

The SKS that takes AK mags may very well jam... MORE than an AK, but the real problem with the SKS-D is that it costs AK prices. (Or I'd have one) I would never not FO on a Mossberg 500 12ga for $150, an SKS for <$200, or a Winchester Lever for <$300. HTH. ETA: I should probably add as a precursor to that last sentence something along the line of "cost willing, budget not so much" or some such disclaimer.

I do know the SKS provides a stable shooting platform with a common caliber for a good cheap price. Get it now before they go up in price and become hard to find like the K98s. |

Just kidding, I actually find mil dot to be extremely useful. Have you ever messed around with a the Strelok ballistic calculator app? Enter your load data and zero range, and you can get yardage for every mil dot on your scope. Pretty neat tool for quick shots in hunting or comps. |

With a bit of training, it's really quick. Then you can switch up to 6x for some more precise shooting. IME, 4 or 6x can be just fine to 400 yards, but that of course is up to you. If you see one at a LGS see if they will let you play with one. Some people love it, other, not so much. |

He is hanging in there. Bummed about how long its taking but still making jokes. He feels ok, its just his labs that need fixing. He wanted me to tell eagle, that they called to tell him his aluminum upper is ready, but he told the girl he didnt want to be coming in with his hospital butt gown and holding his iv bag to pick them up. She said he can wait until as he is out of the joint to pick up and its on hold. He wanted to thank everyone for the support, he really appreciates the kind words. Soon enough he will be out slinging lead down the range. That is great news kinda. Hope he get released soon. Wonder if that is the upper he is getting NP3 coated? |

I just chatted with Mauser for 45 mins too
So....what OT said.
we are working on getting him a laptop to his room, and I'm gonna go see him Saturday. Mauser says hello to everyone, and while being in the hospital fucking blows, he's at the Ritz Carlton of hospitals at least. Good to hear they are taking care of him. Let him know prayers are continuing for him.

Have you thought of maybe a 1.5-6 Or something similar? Vortex is putting out that new budget one and the one from primary arms is bad ass. I don't know if those things are your bag or not, but I find the dual use to be awesome. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By dbrad197:

I don't know if those things are your bag or not, but I find the dual use to be awesome. Those PA 1.5-6's are very nice for the money. another very good one for the money is the Optisan 1-4x24, sold by SWFA, $150 with the mount. I put one on Chef's rifle and the quality of the glass is hard to believe. I've got a Burris MTAC 1-4x24 on my rifle that I really like, think the glass on the Optisan is actually better. |

Just kidding, I actually find mil dot to be extremely useful. Have you ever messed around with a the Strelok ballistic calculator app? Enter your load data and zero range, and you can get yardage for every mil dot on your scope. Pretty neat tool for quick shots in hunting or comps. I am just getting started, it has the H58 http://www.milidroid.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/h-58_hi-res.jpg I always thought those were "busy" till I used one. They work very well for ranging and wind corrections. That the one you got form Rick? |
