Weapons: Cheytac .408 Precision Rifle Systems

Boy, this is an impressive weapon system.  The company is located in Arco, Idaho too.  I have not fired the weapon, but to give you an idea of how specialized this weapon is, it costs about 125 dollars for a box of 20 rounds.  The bullets themselves, are lathed and are made of a propietary mixed metal component.  Check it out. -Head Jundi

Gear Review: The Smith Optics ‘Threshold’

Smith Optics 

   For this review, I want to talk about a pretty important piece of gear.  That gear is sunglasses.  Now the glasses I like, are normal sunglasses, that fit my face and do not distort my view.  They protect me from the sun, wind, sand and small impacts from explosions(god forbid).  But most importantly, these are glasses that I can use to shoot a weapon equipped with an ACOG rifle optic.

   I am concerned about shrapnel and debris coming my way from an explosion, in combat type environments.  But what really concerns me in a war zone, is being able to observe properly, so I can orient me and my client away from those hazards.  In essence, being able to see really well, can increase my odds in finding the signs of IED’s or ambushes, or to identify sneaky individuals in crowds and buildings and streets.   Having an effective eye protection system is essential for the observe part of my OODA(Observe, Orient, Decide, Act) strategy.  Good sunglasses should be comfortable, work well with your weapon, handle the day to day abuse of field work, and comfortably enhance your field of view in the combat zone.  So with that, let me talk about the Smith Optics Threshold.

   For sunglasses, I go with Smith Optics, and specifically the Threshold.  I have used Smith sunglasses back when I was fighting forest fires, and I naturally gravitated towards them for this kind of work.  My main reason was the quality of the lens and how the sun-glass fit on my face.  It was the only pair of sunglasses that would stay on my nose and be comfortable for all day wear. 


Technology: JDoe Productions

   Well, a few of you might be wondering why you haven’t gotten a Feral Jundi post in the last couple of days.  I was doing some work on the site, and I broke the sucker, that’s why.  ha ha  I had a ‘coding moment’, so to speak.

   But I was able to find a quality and highly professional webmaster service, and that is who saved the day.  Margie was awesome, and she was able to fix the problem, and even help in some of my design issues for the site.  So Margie, if you are reading this, thank you so much. 

      For you other bloggers out there, JDoe Productions is a great company to work with and the rates are reasonable.  For future problems and Jundi-fied emergencies, this is the group I will be going to.  -Head Jundi
