A long, long time ago I used to shoot competitively (small bore).

My dad is. I'm a diehard liberal so not much into that kind of stuff

1. Didn't know liberal and firearms are mutually exclusive
2. Didn't know you were a lesbian either

Target. Sites only (scope for spotting). Prone position. Distance of 50.

I haven't shot a gun since I was about 9. My dad was a gun nut and he used to take us shooting when I was a kid. He spent his retired days working at a gun range. Nowadays I couldn't be further on the other side of the spectrum. But whatever...

Irons out that far can get pretty tough for precision. Usually at that range you're just going for shots on target.

How fair is Canadia on guns rights?

I finally finished building my second ar, and this time I did it from scratch. It took me about 6 months but I spent a lot of time going through arguments with myself trying to decide which parts to choose. Pretty happy with what I was able to get together. Im going over lots of different options for build #3.

Swedd, when the **** hits the fan, and the zombies take over the world, can I come live in your basement?

Ridiculous hurricane hitting Mexico right now, the largest in the history of the earth. Prayers to a country that doesn't need that right now.

I would only accept contributing members. What's your resume?

Hmm... I have a Geography degree. That might come in handy when making supply runs. I can map out some primo routes. No need for a GPS unit or maps on a phone. I'll never get us lost. I'm pretty fast for an old man. Pretty sure I can outrun some slow zombies. I like to stay up all night, perfect for a night watchman while others are sleeping. But mostly, just having such an awesome personality around will be great for morale.

Oh yeah, and lists. I am the king of making lists. So, that means organization.

Recap
1. Maps (GPS downloaded to my brain)
2. Fast
3. Vampire
4. Funny
5. Lists

I prefer to be a night owl as well, one of the few who like the skeleton shift.
I'm not too shabby with a glock but have bugger all experiance with rifles.

And you need at least 1 Aussie guy in the group wearing an akubra hat and Slam is too tainted by Canada now to count.

Annoying, I went all day thinking the site was still down.

I had such a funny experience at dinner. Someone walked up and said, "You are such a (bad word). Why don't you rip the Hornets more?"...

Anyone seen LP tonight?

Site was down from about 10:30 to about 4:30 for me. My app isn't working either. Hopefully they'll have that fixed soon.

I just assumed it was still down past 8 pm, but then I saw a tweet from @RealGM saying it was back up. Certainly hope they keep the app, way more convenient.

Do you also have the constant need to know where you are located geographically and the ability to say where that is?
