    There's lots of places down here! I've got a nice range, $60 for a family year unlimited pass (which is awesome), and there is a free public range in Las Cruces that has a pretty nice 1k range. And another range in the mountains with a 800yd range if I recall.

The iphone price doesn't change with contract vs add a line, so I'll create the account with mine, then add the wifes iphone and wait for backorder to be filled.



    The only one I really have is xtremebullets.com. They are the same company as Freedom Munitions, but as far as rifle goes, they only have .223 55gr FMJ and some .30 carbine bullets. Let me look around though, I bookmarked a few websites with quite a few pulled bullets.

    And bogie, those M80 pulled that I linked you to, shipping is included in the price, which I'm not sure if its good or not, I just found the source you get to distinguish whether it's a deal or not

    Nah, came close to ordering from RMR, but they're CO based and I think I've heard good things about them on this site. The other two I have no idea.

    So I'm watching White House Down right now and, while at first I thought it was just a knock off of Olympus has Fallen, I almost have to say I enjoy WHD down a little more than OHF.

We have to get a family plan, wife currently doesn't have a cell phone and its caused problems for us in the past when we couldn't get a hold of one another. Plus, 20% discount on plans through work, so theres that.
    LOVE my GS4. Wife has the HTC One, good phone but we both agree the GS4 is all around a better device. The GS4 gets knocked for "cheap" plastic case, but I use either an Otterbox or Seidio Obex waterproof anyway so there's no downside for me.

    Bachelor party was awesome. The bowling alley apparently had more than just beer. Then I was kidnapped by my best man, who put a bottle of gin, whiskey and rum (the Kraken!) in my hands and made me rotate after every drink. Went to Chile's, had two 20oz beers put in front of me. Then as I finished those and felt all proud, a shot of tequila magically appeared and when we were downing that shot, my two empty 20oz beer mugs were replaced by two more full ones. Long story short, I got totally hammered.


    Went to the range the next morning. Taught my best mans wife how to shoot (she's never shot before in her life) and she LOVES it. Let everyone put two full mags through my assault rifle...I mean AR.


    We had the most fun with borrowing a clay thrower from the range. The guy at the range offered it to me, with the caveat that it breaks more clays than it throws. I never had it break a single clay but there is definitely a trick to throwing the clays in the same spot every time (or even close). I shot 4/6 and the only other person who came close hit 1/4. Not too shabby for only ever having shot clays in high school with a friends shotgun!

    Mother Nature might ruin it by having the wind blow the smoke/sparks in your face?

    Yea, that is the only big complaint I ever see about it, but I too was planning on getting an otterbox defender for it so then the plastic case doesn't matter. Not to mention, in my experience, plastic cases don't always break but metal ones, when dropped, will ALWAYS deform.

    Plus, my sister is a firefighter and keeps her iphone in an otterbox defender and says she takes it in the fires with her in her bunker gear and while its gotten wet quite a few times, the phone has never gotten wet or been damaged.
