On my 2011 I prefer the Trijicon SRO. I find the larger field of view helps with target acquisition.


The AEMS macro field of view is almost the same as the SRO. It’s .98” wide and .89” tall. The macro is .9” wide and .9 tall.

Whoever their QB is at the time might get sacked 20 times in that game.

Holosun is starting to ship the AEMS macro. Going to get one for 2k11. Footprint is 509t. Comes with RMR-509t adapter plate. Will have red, green and gold reticles. For those of you with astigmatism the gold is great. I have a 507 comp gold and I love it. They are selling for $369.

Staccato is hurting now that every single gun company is making a "2011" version. Most at lower cost


Did a bunch of research before I pulled the trigger on my 2k11 pro comp. Kimber has upped their game in the last few years. Staccato makes good stuff but they are kinda like Nike. A bunch of competitors in the 2011 game now like Kimber, Bul, and Sig at lower cost. You can get a SS 2k11 pro comp for $1800. That’s a ton of gun for the $$$. Hoping my gun comes to my LGS tomorrow. They ordered it from Lipseys Friday.

You have to believe at some point their big money guys are going to get fatigued at some point. It will be interesting to see if they can hold the 27 class together.

Same for the gasser. I am entering my yearly itch for a new truck and thinking a F250 or 2500 gasser.


I had the 6.6 gasser in 2021 2500 Chevy. Loved the truck and engine. I wouldn’t get another diesel unless it was making me money. The 6.6 gas pulled a 22 ft flat bed with 79 hp Kubota with bushhog and disk no problem. Also pulled a 34 ft bumper camper. I got 18-19 mpg on interstate. I put 60k miles on it before trading it in to downsize. The ride in the Chevy is much better than my 2017 F250 if comfort matters.

The Wake. coach is going to get some looks. He did pretty well at Wa State and has Wake playing well.

He’s focused on developing his quarterback.


How is that going?

It was supposed to be a very simple process. And it was, up until MPI(female) received the gun. Then everything went to shite. Gun is now back with the gunsmith(male). However, as soon as it was delivered, he emailed me saying it looks like shite, and sent pictures to show how bad MPI(female) messed up not only the stock, but also gouged and scratched the receiver and barrel.


This is a tough lesson. I’ve had many guns worked on by people out of my area. I always vet the person/company and never do business with anyone that has more than 3 bad reviews. It’s just not worth it. A quick google search of MPI should have told you to stay away. Sorry for your troubles.

Apparently the old man that started MPI died and the daughter is trying to keep it afloat. She is apparently a terrible business woman.
Here is a story similar to yours.

DKE in late 80’s at LSU had more coke run through it than Studio 54.
Flew from DFW to Albuquerque Tuesday. Flight time was almost 3 hrs instead of normal 1 hr 20 minutes. We had to fly around storms. Flew 960 miles. It’s 568 miles normal flight.

It depends on the jurisdiction, some police departments choose to integrate state DMV or Department of Transportation (DOT) databases into their local software environment. If an agency sets up these integrations, the system can automatically cross-reference a passing license plate against state records, thus PII is pulled and stored into the cloud service provider for the agency.


Most states won’t allow it because they can’t handle the traffic from the camera systems. It’s why they hit a downloaded hot sheet.

FLOCK is collecting all this info as a third party non-governmental organization and then selling that info to other private organizations.


Again Fock isn’t the only company doing it. Motorola has a subsidiary called vigilant solutions doing the same thing. They actually have the world’s largest commercial plate database in the world.

Cell companies sell your data to marketing firms every day. When a retailer wants to look at moving into a new area they can buy cell data that shows the comings and going of people to gauge traffic patterns to the area.

LSU takes in almost $50 million more per year than FSU. You think they can outspend LSU?

It is waste of money and a needless redundancy.


I’m speaking of ALPR in general. It helps solve 1000’s of violent crimes per year. It helps find missing kids, dementia patients etc. it’s a valuable tool. Whether you agree with it or not.
