I am trying to get my wife to go to the range next week, as its something she wants to do. That and she is usually home alone with the kids most hours of the day as I am gone alot for work.
Trying to see if I can find a little .22 pistol something like a walther p22 or ruger sr22.

I just have a lot of stress built up inside, the range is one of the few things that releases that for me. And I just finished building my AR lower want to test fire and run through some cycles. And I did a trigger job on my other AR that I want to check out.

We are cleaning out the shop so I can put up a punching bag as well. Hopefully that will help.

All i know is we have a few rifle/shotguns and he is going to a conceal & carry class in a couple of weeks i believe.



LOL.....

Since no one here cares I will send you pics. They are on my phone anyway.

And 300 blackout. Will be sending my tax stamp next week for a silencer.

No it's not. If i take the cam off it is still really out of focus.
I also have a DR400G-HD and it's not like this.

Might just be the 380 then. IIRC they have a narrower viewing angle and a worse sensor.

Yea, something is wrong with the cam itself or the firmware. I took it off the windshield and filmed other stuff and it was just as un-focused

The least he could have done is found some tape that matched the color of the car.

Haha no the windows in our JX have 20% tints so I don't think he saw, but the car was in terrible condition and there were two car-seats in the back and nobody was wearing seat-belts

Kids not strapped in? Wow screw that, i hope they saw and feel like trash LOL. That is such a pet peeve of mine. As a mom, it blows my mind how anyone can endanger their children like that. Little kids don't know any better but the adult driver should. Ppl disgust me smh.

Dear con5tant,
This is Kate Lee from Pittasoft.
We checked the video you sent the link to us.
It seems that your unit has a problem to lens focus.
Please visit the shop where you purchase the unit.
They will replace it right away.

Best regards,
Kate Lee

I enjoy overhaulling & trucks! just as much as the rednecks around e, however Tall Nights is a classic. I have it on Blue-Ray AND dvd, and still watched it both times it was on tBs tonight. That is the one movie i can watch 1000 times and still laugh like its the first time seeing it. Close behind is the all time great StepBrothers. "Why are you so sweaty?""i was watching cops" lmaoooo

Both good movies. I would have to say that my favorite would be Land of the Lost though.

Matt Lauer can suck it...
