Night vision and Thermal scopes

What exactly are you wanting to so with it?

There are red dot sights that are night vision compatible, they usually start at the $600 range and go on up from there. The night vision that you have to buy to use with then is considerably more expensive.

Thermal imaging devices do not work the same way. You can buy a thermal optic, but I have never seem one that could be mounted behind a red dot sight. I have also never seen a thermal gun sight that was any less than $2500.

Hunting hogs with night vision, a machine gun, and a suppressor

Here in Texas it’s open season on hogs 365 days a year, all day, and, most importantly, all night. I have yet to have much luck hunting pigs when the sun is beating down, and believe me I have walked many hectares of land with a rifle on my shoulder, a pistol on my hip,[.....]

'Shotgun Joe' refuses to go quietly into the night.

"Shotgun Joe" may be crazy, but he's not stupid, He knows full well that the gun control issue is done.

I believe what he is doing, is trying to draw some of the fire away from his boss, and all of "The big O's" pet scandals, he knows if he fires up the anti-gun control crowd, we will again flood the house and senate with the same phone calls, E-mails and letters as we did before.

The investigators will be side tracked away from Obama, maybe enough to let him run, OR they will stay focused on Obama, and maybe Joe can slip some form of gun control in the back door.

Trust me when I say, "He knows exactly what he is doing".

Weird dream I had last night

As I've said here before, I find it disappointing that there are no provisions for an 18 year old to carry a gun to protect themselves. An 18 year old is legally an adult, ready for the real world, and can own a gun, but cannot carry it in their day to day business.

Last night, I had a dream I was hanging out with some friends (or maybe just one). I had my CZ 75 in the car. I knew I had to leave it there per the laws in my state. I walked up the driveway (it was a country house with a long driveway and I parked my car at the gate at the end). All was fine for a while until an unsavory character started hanging around and trying to cause trouble.

I went out to the car to grab the gun (being a dream, there were about 12 pistols laying around for some reason). I had it loaded with a round in the chamber and was ready to put it in my pocket when somebody pulled up to the house. I remembered then that if I were caught with a concealed firearm illegally, it would be a felony. I knew I couldn't afford one of those so I put the gun back in the car. I was on my guard for a while, and sure enough, as I was walking around the side of the house, the unsavory character opened fire at me. He was near my car so I knew I couldn't get to the gun. I ran inside to find another person with a revolver. She raised it at me and fired. I ran at her knowing I had to get in closer. I took 2 shots in the hand and 3 in the leg (lucky, right? ) and wrestled the revolver away.

There was more to the dream, but not so relevant here.

Anyways, I wonder what this dream says about me. I remember sitting in the hospital in the dream thinking "I'm going to use this to change the laws", followed by "I need to post this on The Firing Line".

Just thought I would share an interesting experience
