The Tenacious Unicorn Ranch / @TenaciousRanch / Steampunk Penny / Penellope Logue / Phillip Matthew Logue - Don't cry because it ended, laugh because it's still getting worse.

[Boris Blank's glass eye]

Watching fat people in tac gear never gets old. I see Phil never learned to shoot from the kneeling position. And who the fuck puts a 1X optic that far forward?

The optic really bothers me because he's got it on the handguard.

My guess would be he tried to attempt running a very ta/k/ti/k/ool red dot+magnifier setup but forgot he was supposed to have a magnifier behind the red dot for that to work. Even then the RDS would be far too forward for a 2× scope most people use for this purpose, but he might have planned to use Paul's sooper sniper optics.

Or he's just plain incompetent and retarded and I'm just trying to make sense of something that inherently can't have any.

Severely mentally ill men are not capable of doing anything even competently.

They're probably going to fuck them if they haven't started already, and they're too lazy to go outside to do it.

Not true. 41% of them manage to do at least one thing correctly.

inb4 people point out the 41% stat sadly isn't even close to reality, proving they can't even do stastics right

That 41% is from a poll where the question was "have you attempted suicide" so those 41 percenters got that completely wrong.

Yes, I saw the spoiler, but I just thought it was funny

And if you've seen troon "suicide attempts" on social media, they're so fucking pathetic they would embarrass a 13 year old girl. They'll call it a suicide attempt to drag a plastic spork half heartedly across their wrist.

Larpers never know how to safely use a firearm or maintain their gear. It all surface level shit. The tranch army is just using guns for online clout and to dunk on the haters. It's only a matter of time till they end of shooting one of their own or a neighbor die to their ineptitude.

I was at a range a few years back and there was some LGBTQ larp squad shooting an AR chambered in .223. They had both 5.56 mixed in with their .223. After seeing that I got my ass out of there.

You do realize that 5.5.56x45mm NATO and .223 Rem are virtually identical as 5.56mm was based on the .223 cartridge, right? The bullets/projectiles they use are exactly the same and the dimensional differences between their cases are so minute that you would need precision calipers to tell the difference. Most rifles chambered for one or the other will feed both just fine. Sometimes you'll get a picky rifle that will only want to shoot what it's chambered for, but most will work with both no problem. It's not like an AR with .223 Remington stamped on the barrel is going to blow up in your face if you fire a 5.56x45mm cartridge through it. Now, trying to fire a 5.45x39mm cartridge in a rifle chambered for .223 or 5.5.56x45mm would be a more dangerous affair since it's not related to .223/5.56mm. The biggest issue you might run into you might run into firing 5.56mm in a .223 or vice-versa is stuck cases during extraction and shift in point of impact on the target.

I think the bigger problem is that the cases were mixed and quite likely being loaded into the same mags. Which as you said is not the end of the world, but speaks more to a lack of care by the users. Its like seeing a rusted out Chevy with obvious accident damage in front of you on the highway. Its probably fine but maybe not the worst idea to switch to another lane and give it a little more space when you pass.

Not with the boomer apocalypse on imports still ongoing.

When in doubt about the tranch, the answer is always incompetence. I'm pretty sure he saw a picture of someone's setup online with the red dot mounted there and did it himself thinking that's just how you do it.

Not exactly. .223 Wylde chambers exist for a reason.

Non american nor a gun nerd here, may I enquire about what is the buzzing sound that I hear a bit before each shot ?

Not sure, but it sounds like a drone. Whatever it is only gets louder and quieter because the microphone is adjusting to the gun shots.

Why is their land so barren? It's desert but the neighbour land has brush, as was pointed out. Is it really just the case that the troons happened to purchase a piece of land cursed to be barren, just like their bodies?

Most .223 chambers manufactured now are designed to take both .223 and 5.56x45 safely.

They have 200++ animals on a little 36ac lot.

It's overgrazing, simple as that. They put a ton of beasties on fragile grassland and the beasties turned it to dust.

You can mix .223 and 5.56 all day long, it does not matter, especially in magazines. The ONLY problem that may arise is that if you're using a .223 barrel, 5.56 will erode its life quicker due to the much higher pressures 5.56 has. There's a reason you see most Law Enforcement restricted ammo chambered in .223, it's because .223 will go through anything designed for that caliber without any pressure issues.


The only thing having both in the same mag will do is probably throw your accuracy off, but if you're shooting autistically for score, you're probably using hand loaded .223 anyway.

Should have gone with the simplest explanation, but for some reason I assumed they were smart enough to see how letting too many animals graze on too much of the land at one time would cause problems. Their neighbours are nice people, I assume, but I seriously wonder what they think when they look over at the barren tranch.
