Ah, I had a fun 4th of July. Lots of guns, pistols, rifles and machine guns, with and without suppressors/silencers. I brought a few Dealer demo full auto guns for some friends to play with. We set up an obstacle course and a friend was ripping face with the suppressed H&K MP5 w/ 100rd drum of 9mm. Full auto. He had a 80% hit rate in the rape house, in the dark. He's pretty hardcore. I got a 90% clearing a house with a short barrel, suppressed full auto HK416 that I built. Half dark, half light w/ 'hostages'.

Pretty damn fun to spend an July 4th weekend. Also, after some police friends and friends of police friends seeing my handy work: I now have 3 MP5s to build and 7 AR varients. All short barrel and suppressed. All MP5s and 2 ARs full auto. So I had fun and made enough for a year, plus being able to buy a new lathe. Pheeeewww. Also a glass AR15 and Glock. Which will be freaking awesome.

Sorry, I'm slightly hammered.

I have good form with a 12 gauge shot gun, but WOW, is my shoulder already sore! I've taken several 'tactical' courses on how to use a 12G in combat. So I know the "Push/Pull" method of shouldering it. I have a Mossberg 930 SPX which is a 7+1+1 round of semi-auto 12 gauge fury. I shot ~120 000buck out of it today and some #1 buck.
I also shot ~60 .308 out of my M1a and ~30 out of my Remington 700 bolt gun.
Some .357Mag and .38SPC out of the Rossi M92 lever carbine.
~300 out of my AR-15 (5.56mm)
and ~450 assorted 9mm, .45ACP and some 5.7mm out of the FiveSeveN and PS90.
And a ton of .22lr.

We don't do static shooting. We move around and find cover and do 'games' with a LOT of tannerite (we used 20 1/2lb targets today :D) . It's really too bad ammo is so damn expensive now because it's a really awesome workout. I may look in to Airsoft. My trainer at the gym is a gun guy too. So maybe I can get a little 'team' together. Sounds childish, but it's a LOT of fun!

Good God, man, what are you waiting for?! Try Blue Grass Burley!!! :laugh:

Like I said, I am fearing too much cross similarity between the BGB, and the maple burley and DD I already have tanked up. So I am taking it as a rare opportunity to let something steep without ripping it up right out of the mail. Tomorrow probably.

To rpad point on tea, I concur. I am greatly enjoying the cha yen with orange blossom after dinner, before I lay into the heavy stuff. I honestly am a bit disappointed with the A+ tea selection though. None of my standard faves. I would like a straight earl gray...and maybe a lemon tea, or a blackberry...

Why hasn't someone done an Arnold Palmer yet?!?!

QnJ results posted :)

Hey, I won!

What do I win again, besides notoriety? :lol:

How ironic that the juice I won for is the only one of the four that I'm not all that keen on. I mean it's good and all, but the smoky/fire flavor reminds me a leetle too much of rba top coil hot spot. :(

I completely forgot I had a sample of Ahlusion Cocoa Blend, generously provided by Fantastic when I confessed I hadn't ordered it. Vaping it side by side in matching CE5s with MyVapeJuice Savage Cocoa.

A+ has a smoother and less sweet approach.... the cocoa is actually reminiscent of cocoa with that "powdery" texture. The Burley base we all know and love provides a gritty counterpoint that helps the cocoa stick. Superlative morning coffee vape. Big-bottle-worthy for certain.

MVJ has a bit of a sweeter finish, but a spicier tobacco. The overall impression is a bit dried-fruit like, and somehow puts me in the mind of Raisinets with the tart-sweetness of the fruit and chocolate.

Both really nice juices.

Somebody has an Arnold Palmer that I saw somewhere... I don't think it was Roar Vapor, but maybe Mt. Baker or one of those?

Completely and totally off topic, but if anyone has the remotest interest in classical music, you should know that Amazon has the entire Wagner Ring cycle conducted by Christian Thielemann from the Bayreuth Festival, for the ridiculous price of $5.99.

That is nearly 20 hours of music that usually costs a few hundred bucks.

Tragically it is only available in the USA so I cannot take advantage :( If I could I'd be downloading it now while vaping my Cocoa Blend.

Could I download it, put it on a thumb drive and send it to you?

Um, I don't know, could you? LOL :confused:

Don't ask the tech doofus here:) I don't know what sorts of DRM protections would hinder that.
Doofus here also. I'd bet it is protected so I couldn't but if you find out differently, I would gladly do the deed! I'm not a classical fan so I really don't want to be stuck with it!:?:

Hello all,
This is my first post in this topic and I have read approx 320 pages into it from the beginning. I'm dying to try HHV Gandalf, but its not listed on the site. Can someone tell me if it was discontinued or renamed. Thanks .

So far this has been a great read, I'll let you know how it turns out in about 2 years when I get to the end.

Not being a Tech Expert, I'd think if it's for an MP3, you'd have to be able to download it and copy to your player or a Flash Drive type device.

Welcome. Post as you go back and read. Gandalf is now named Legend due to copyright issues.

PS Most people are not nearly as excited about it now as they were originally.

Well, I've tried Halos Tribeca, too something... sour maybe. Tried Fuzions black Cavendish? ...thought it was horrible at first, ended up great after steeping. Tried Halos Capt. Jack, not bad, lent it out and never saw it again I probably would have enjoyed it. Mixed up a batch of bobas clone from the really long diy thread and like it but not tobacco-y enough.
I liked real cigars. Cohiba, A.Fuente,Perdomo,Rocky Patel...
Also enjoyed burley and Cavendish pipe.
