I don't invest in Japan at all. My Asia funds specifically excluded Japan and China. A lot of Wall St guys were borrowing money in Japan at low interest rates and parking it in the US at higher interest rates. If that goes away due to higher rates in Japan, it seems like a lot of equity will...

Anyone worried about the Japan carry trade affecting US markets again? When putting together my watchlist for Monday, a video popped up on YouTube warning about selling due to Japan bumping interest rates. I haven't had time to dig deeper, but last time it caused some volatility, so I'm...

That's a bummer. All that stuff went to waste? My family and my wife's family empty all fridges and freezers whenever a cabin will be unoccupied for more than a week. It was a hard-earned lesson. Now the Canadian raccoons get a feast every October when we throw out anything not worth taking...

My only range toy is a newish SAR9 that I love. I bought it super cheap, and it's been a fantastic purchase so far. I'm still shooting 124gr through it to break it in, but it runs smooth and shoots like a dream. It's too big to carry concealed, so I'll probably end up bringing it to Norway if...

My math is slightly off. The 20% is taken after the 30%, so it's 44% total discount. Still a good price to me, so I'm going for it. I like the budget gear I have for sitting in a tree stand, but after fiddling with my new saddle/harness, I need something less bulky, and the Fanatic system...

Some of their stuff is 50% off right now. Looks like I can get Fanatic bibs and jacket in my size shipped for $612.

Anyone have a good play on the sodium battery technology? News seems a bit all over the place. Are they really the next big thing? Is any particular company ahead of the others?

Old James Bond movies are awesome. I've seen all of them. They used to do multi-day marathons on TV, and I would record several of them for evening viewing.

Oh you're in luck. There are several deer-specific persimmon varieties out there now. This is also my next project. I'm planning to order some rootstock today. Check out the scion exchange thread. And have a look at the Blue Hill website for trees and a great drop time chart...

Still blows my mind how you get such antler mass on your bucks.

Welcome, Mike. Congrats on the purchase. You'll probably find most or all of the info you need here. Most guys here hunt deer, but there are some avid turkey hunters, too. Popular turkey plots seem to be chufa, Milo, clover, and oats. I think some people do soybeans as well. You can...

That jacket is wild. I don't even own clothes like that.

Awesome. Can you keep us updated on the process? I want to buy some suppressors this year, but every time I ask the people at gun stores what wait times are, no one knows. I think it might be another few months before they get some solid information. If you could keep us updated as to your...

The law allows for the right to peaceably assemble. The two people who got shot physically interfered with LEOs conducting official business, and both of them used legally defined deadly weapons while doing so. The law does not allow for that, and it shouldn't. Americans are not required to...

Are you joking? They've arrested thousands of illegals, and two "protesters" got shot. Your math is off.

Bingo. In the CCW class I took in Ohio many years ago, they made it clear that you should never suddenly reveal a weapon in a situation like this even if you you are trying to help the police because you are likely to get shot. You need to articulate to police that you have a weapon and ask if...

Not to nitpick, but the question here is actually "did the cop who shot him break the law.". From the looks of things, probably not. You don't have to break the law to get shot by a cop. If the cop has a reasonable fear of death or serious bodily harm, he can respond with deadly force. The...

Yup, and at a decent price. I'll get one eventually, but it's out of stock everywhere.

That's why I'm limiting it to two. After reading about all the options, I'm overwhelmed with ideas and plans. I'm new to the AR world, but I see why guys go nuts for it. A long-range Mk12 would be awesome. A silenced SBR would be loads of fun, too. I see guys online talk about dropping 5k...

Looks awesome. Can you get it anywhere, or do only specific chains carry it?
