I’m glad for you, that’s smart.
My comment was about assuming others haven’t done the same thing, and don’t appreciate what they’ve worked & saved for. |

Japanese milt. Would you like it steamed or fried?

Would one of you tier one operators please discuss chest rigs? Specifically, why one would be chosen instead of a PC or LBV?

I don’t like chest rigs. Very hard to deal with when in prone position.
Also, they add a lot of weight onto my spine disks. I like Tru-Spec 24-7 pants with two internal magazine compartments in each cargo pocket, plus good duty belt, plus wide suspenders. However, YMMV. https://www.everydaymarksman.co/equipment/chest-rig/ _________________ FPC member GOA member Corruptissima re publica plurimae leges. |

Walmart uses Uber eats for its same day shipping.... It's a bit different than the store delivery because with a store delivery you set a delivery time and you can only pull from that store.
Apparently, 'same day shipping' means driver goes to whatever store in the area has the stuff you're looking for, then delivers it. I placed an order, forgot I needed something else and made a second order... .then realized I missed something and made a 3rd order...all within about 2 mins. Guess how many cars show up? Yeah, 3.. .within minutes of each other... _________________ NO DISASSEMBLE!

Looking at some HVAC testing equipment, I saw this notation:

I don't know why Facebook has decided to show me non-stop bra ads, but I'm not complaining.
