That gun sight is awesome I wonder what the policy is for ordering a gun sight cross border?

A sight shouldnt be an issue.

 

And Mike politics I dont want to get into. Just keeping it legal

You'd be best to contact a local store as it seems lots of US vendors won't ship to Canada. Mine is an Aimpoint PRO.

Nothing about politics- it's all give and take. You get nice weather, I get standard capacity mags. :lol:

 

Our selection here is terrible all the good stuff is down south, and cheaper.

You might try contacting some of the vendors like MidwayUSA, Bravo Company, etc (steer clear of Cheaper Than Dirt, they're a horrid vendor) and see what their policy is. Bear in mind I have zero knowledge of export/import laws but it is an item anyone can walk in and buy here so if you're close to the border that may be an option but I can't say anything as to what issues you might run into trying to bring it home.

Yea Mike it is pretty nice. Its 53 degrees here. I can go shoot outside and not freeze my ass off

At least you're reasonable- I've met a few CA types who'd about die in 53 degree weather. :lol:

I've lived in the highest elevation of Florida.... Sea level. It would get to 18 at night. Been in the mountains of Utah. I hate cold, but I can still go out in it with jeans and a t shirt

That was always the joke- that the skyscrapers in Miami are taller than any natural point in the state. :lol:

 

Just checked- the highest point there is 345'! :lol:

And that is in northwest Florida, where I was. Well that is one county over where my girlfriend lived. Where I was the high point was about 310 ft.

i put an Aimpoint Pro on mine as well. You can't beat the 3 years left on battey life. That had me sold.

For me a new .30-06 is needed. Going to get a Savage and wrap it up with that stretchy camo wrap, put on a nice scope, and put on a bipod. Long distance zombie hunting!! :D

    • No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.      
    • Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.
    • I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?   
    • Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
