>Happy Independence Day!

Steven K. Ledin,

Happy Independence Day! From an old Navy salt to the rest of the veterans, thanks for serving!

Three day weekend coming up for some. More time for projects. Lately I’ve cleaned and mounted some turkey skulls for Mark the Turkey Hunter, scrimshawed some Alaskan walrus ivory necklaces for a friend’s wife and My Shirley, built a 1/6 scale motorcycle for one of our displays, cooked a lot of grand food, and I’m building some elk chili to take to a fireworks party. Took the hog to work four days in a row this week. Working on an AR with everything

>OPMOD EXPS2 EOTech, Pistol Match, and Spiderman Boxer Shorts

Steven K. Ledin,

The OPMOD EXPS2-2 and EXPS2-0 EOTechs are selling like crazy. These OpticsPlanet exclusive products’ notoriety has taken off due to chat on popular gun forums and industry word of mouth. We are actively working on more OPMOD products, as well as a variety of exclusives.
It’s been busy here, like normal. Just like poker, I’m all in. My projects are so numerous they seem like schools of salmon swimming upstream against a raging current. Occasionally a bear grabs one. Lately one of the projects is assembling a 1/6 scale Harley for a display. Too many parts!

My Visit to Leupold and a Tunnel Dream Come True

Steven K. Ledin,

As a very young man, many of my fantasies seemed almost unattainable at the time. Getting a driver's license was a pretty sure thing, but many years in the future. Losing my virginity was another one a long time coming. Getting my own dog took a while. Going to Africa on safari was just a pipe dream, as was walking on the pyramids of Egypt and racing cars and motorcycles and many other experiences.

>Nikon M-223 Scopes on CMMG Guns in Missouri

Steven K. Ledin,

Monday mornings at OpticsPlanet aren’t the worst experiences in the world by far, and a lot of times are reasonably fun (for a job). Last Monday was better than most since it started with an early morning road trip with a few professional gun monkeys to Missouri. We stayed in a casino overnight, and I learned that we could only have one drink every half hour. What the heck is that about?

In the morning we left with a wagon train of vehicles bound to CMMG (Central Missouri Machine Gun) to abuse a bunch of their guns underneath various Nikon
