    Interesting 4/20 marketing by Simms

    It is kind of weird. Like, why did they make a post about that? Did they also make a post when they started offering dental insurance? Or, when they change the paid-time-off policy? They could have offered whatever services they wanted to their employees then said nothing to the public.

    Oh! Actually I have an Orvis 4wt click and pawl reel that is insanely good. I guess I do like some Orvis reels. It's an old one though.

    50-50 on that. You're missing out on a great rod. Not a huge fan of the Mirage reels though. Or any Orvis reels for that matter. Lucky for me, I don't give a flying f**k about a company's politics. It's awesome. Check it out sometime.

    I have an Orvis H3D 9' 5wt. It's a great fishing pole. One of my favorites.

    It's sunny. It precipitates 230 days a year where I live, so sunshine is never guaranteed.

    Gas Vehicles - Are you concerned new Biden Admin EPA regulations on gas vehicle emissions will restrict or negatively impact your ability to hunt?

    From John Lawler, Ford CFO "Ford Model e is an EV startup within Ford," he said. "As everyone knows, EV startups lose money while they invest in capabilities, develop knowledge, build volume, and gain share." So, those losses are an investment. It’s like, I lose money when I buy tools from the...

    Gas Vehicles - Are you concerned new Biden Admin EPA regulations on gas vehicle emissions will restrict or negatively impact your ability to hunt?

    Meh, the government has meddled in the auto market for a long time. Bailouts and tariffs. Nothing new to the energy source. GM might not even exist today if the government hadn't bailed them out in 2009.

    Gas Vehicles - Are you concerned new Biden Admin EPA regulations on gas vehicle emissions will restrict or negatively impact your ability to hunt?

    My comment was about sales. Not really electric vehicle efficacy. But here is the energy cost math where I live: The power utility charges $0.0596 per kWh during peak hours for residential vehicle charging (its a little cheaper in the middle of the night). A Ford F150 Lightning gets about...

    Gas Vehicles - Are you concerned new Biden Admin EPA regulations on gas vehicle emissions will restrict or negatively impact your ability to hunt?

    As far as I can tell from the published statistics, EV sales are increasing every year. It's a growing industry in the US and abroad. 2023 was the biggest year since 2022 which was the biggest year since 2021... Also, it doesn't really look to me like EVs are cannibalizing hybrids. Hybrid sales...

    WTB Nikon P-22 Rifle Scope w BDC Reticle

    Thanks BachelorJack. That is an awesome scope that is nearly the one that I am looking for. In researching your scope I've learned that there were a couple iterations of this scope over a few years, and this is the successor to the P-22 that I inquired about. The P-Rimfire has upgraded turrets...

    WTB Nikon P-22 Rifle Scope w BDC Reticle

    Hello All, I used one of these Nikon scopes quite a few years ago, and really liked it. If you have one that you are willing to part with then let me know. I really don't need one, and am not interested in any alternative. I just liked this scope and couldn't afford it when it was available...

    Suppressor wait times

    My local guy just did the Form 3 for me, so once he gets it I can start the Form 4 process. Never done it before, so don't really know what to expect. This thread is helpful. I'll let you guys know what happens.

    Agreed wholeheartedly. I didn't know what to say because the OPs mind seemed made up. Who cares about a heartbeat monitor when compared to a watch with a heartbeat of its own?

    Is Rokslide a Cult? Is Fishnet Form the RokLeader?

    Either this isn't a cult, or I'm not a member. I have no idea what you're talking about.

    your good (or not so good) customer service interactions of late

    Lately, at Sportsman's Warehouse, the credit card reading computer has been forcing me to answer a survey question BEFORE I pay. Which just seems so weird. I don't want to answer any survey questions, and it seems really underhanded to me to force me into it before I can complete my business...
