Stuff you have because you've played Twilight:2000

Wished I had one or two of those drums.

While not something that I actually have it was Twilight 2000 that fired up my fascination for all things bullpup.

Good .

Thanks.

I would be well pleased with 1 MOA too.

Getting a new .308 / 7,62x51 soonish . Considering a semi auto over a bolt action .

Stupid question time from a stupid civilian...What is MOA

Stupid question time from a stupid civilian...What is MOA

MOA - Minute of an Angle or Minute of an Arc. If you divide a circle into 360 parts, you get a Minute of an Angle (1 degree each). It's about a meter wide at 1000 meters. If your rifle has a 1 MOA capability, it can be theoretically expected (in the hands of a competent marksman) to place its rounds consistently within a meter-wide circle at 1000 meters range. Naturally, the rifle used, the shooter's skill, his sighting aids or scope, and the ammunition quality all affect this.

Not stupid

The lower the MOA the better the accuracy .
Roughly said: 1 inch spreading in a group of shots at 100 yards equals 1 moa.
2 inches is 2 moa etc .

sub moa ( 0,5 moa etc ) is very desireable because then you have a really accurate gun .But in the real world 1 moa is still darn good and 2-3 moa is decent ..

all in my humble opinion of course

Thank you for that explanation! I don't have any guns that can reach 1000 meters. .22 is the best I've got.

Thank you for that example. That means with my .22's getting a one 1/2 to two inch grouping at 100 yards is pretty decent. I can do that on a consistant basis, I've got them sighted in well. Now if I can only get the shooter to do better....

Got some camping gear recently but i have good excuses

I recently made some food reserves (about a full month of food and water for four), got a small camping type cooker and open the well again (it's plenty of water). I also increased my wood reserve, doubling it just in case.

All of it make me think of T2K, of course but, in fact, it has nothing to do with it. Every winter, power gets down and you never know how much time it can remain down.

Then, an old friend of us, visiting lately, advised us to do so. She had lived through Mai 1968 and she fears that it might come again (with communities cut from everything for weeks). Currently, I think that to be fairly plausible.

What do I have because I've played T2K since '87 Loads of maps of Poland and Eastern Europe; Polish-English dictionary; Polish travel guides; Living contacts in Poland; Books on the history of Poland; a desire to visit the country (which probably will never happen but.......)

You should, it's a very nice country with very nice people.

What happened to you friend in 1968 Granted, I was fifteen at the time, but I do not remember anything drastic happening.
