RDB-C bullpup in 6.5mm Grendel with 3x Bering Optics scope and a quick-detachable night vision device. Infrared illuminator is off to the right. PMR30 on the side for close-range backup. Spare mags ride over AR50o steel plates. The smiley gunner is Lacey Caroline.
For all the jackboot lickers who insist that laws are morality and must be followed, I submit this exhibit:
The same exhibit illustrates just how common ingredients for weapons are. Humans have been making serviceable weapons since before Paleolith, and that knowledge isn’t going away short of extinction of the species and wipeout of all records.
I am looking at getting a 135/2 lens for use with the Canon, but it has a finder screen optimized for lenses no faster than 2.8. With the older 5Dmk2, I could get a higher contrast focusing screen for use with fast lenses. 5Dmk3 omitted that option, and 5DS R seems to lack it as well.
My options seem to be live view with a magnifier (clumsy) or just using the Sony A7R. I am not at all sure that Canon AF (or electronic focus confirmation with manual focus) is accurate enough for focusing a 135/2 lens wide open consistently. Does anyone have experience either way?
Based on a recent test, Samyang 135/2 seems to provide sharper, cleaner images with less stray color in out of focus areas. How realistic is that comparison?
I have a Polish P64 for a review, and would like to compare it to a Makarov…but I let mine go back in 2000. Could anyone lend me a Mak for photos or just join me for a range trip? Ammo and range are on me.
12ga side-by-side, the Vice Presidential choice, and a 13-shot .380, both imported from Turkey by Zenith. Full reviews coming soon.
Mostly images of people, might be of interest to some of my readers.
…others, by steel, brass and lead. Which would make a better teammate?
“Сама не летает и другим не даёт.”
Does anyone know the typical powder charges and velocity for .28, .32 or .36 caliber versions?
The end came entirely too fast for Dawn. The treatment should have started a year and a half earlier…
I’d like to thank all who help to make the last-ditch effort to save her. She was a very good person.
Does anyone have one of those rifles and be willing to let me take photos of them?
My favorite fine artist will have a show on September 1 in Minneapolis. I plan to attend and recommend it highly to others. Aribert Munzner is worth meeting in person.
The father is John Young of Fighting Sheepdog. His daughter gets to be trained by a USMC graduate. The pistol is a S&W Victory .22, a very modular design. The little loop on the back is “halo” made by Tandemkross — it prevents pinched fingers that seem to go with this pistol otherwise. The mag loader John is wearing on a lanyard is optional for Victory magazines but really, really helps with Ruger 2245 and MkIII mags. While I don’t see a muzzle brake as a need for .22 pistols, their prevalence at shooting competitions suggests that they do work well.
