The answerwas pretty clear, wasn't it?
Bait and hounds = bad.
tow trucks = good.
Best post of this entire thread. I'd also point out to the OP that a Bear that bigs' ass is approx. 2' from the vitals so you might think about going back and editing that "near miss" part.

Holy Smokes,
just saw the tale scattered over (oops, I mean ALL over) the forum.
1. Saw a bear at a friends spot.
2. Ass shot bear with uber unit.
3. Phoned a friend.
4. Went home.
5. Came back with another friend.
6. Friend found bear.
7. Friend killed bear.
8. Friend took hero shots of me.
9. Friend hauled bear.
10. Friend gutted bear.
11. Friend skinned bear.
12. I wrote up multiple entries on internet forums of my awesomeness.
13. I was voted a badass mutherphoucer......
by me.
Well written. He didn't kill anything. He just wounded an animal and then had to call a guide to come in and clean up his mess. Let's don't forget the part where he offers to give meat to anybody that wants it, except the one friend that was recently in his house but got none offered.

Nah...Burns is an azzhat of even greater prominence than Safariman.
You got that right. Ahh, The butthurt flows strong in these two.  A couple of non-shootin' mofos, no doubt.

Sure he would. He's the self-appointed UBER authority on all things firearms, except how to bed and shoot a light rifle.

Let's don't forget the part where he offers to give meat to anybody that wants it, except the one friend that was recently in his house but got none offered. That friend and I are still good friends, I forgot about the bear meat while he was here, but also he was headed back for Japan in a day or so from when he was here. Bad idea to take raw meat in a suitcase when 1) Flying 'as a seat is available/on call then add in likely normal delays etc. can cause the trip to be very long in duration. I am sure he will get some, and some feral pork, Venison etc. when he gets back stateside later this year. I didn't think of the bear meat giveaway idea until I started this thread.

I would not have been able to take any at that time anyway. You guys really need to get over yourselves as the junior high girl drama is really getting old.

How's business?
Oops....my bad..... Wow thanks for asking because it was a pretty good day today. Hope the OP won't mind a small hijack.  Starting off I got a small batch of uppers and lowers back from the Anodizer. Wanted to try a some Sand Matte Type III. Looked pretty good but might tweak it some in the future. Love that Wyoming Arms Logo. Most everthing we do is is Type III Black but the Matte Sand is cool and in demand. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/bb428/GreybullPrecision/Wyo%20Arms%20Shop%20Pics/DSC01015_zps252ebe4e.jpg) Got the 300 Blackout barrels on the mill for fluting and things looked good. As you most likely know our 5.56 WYO barrels pretty much set the standard for "uber" accuracy/ "uber" reliabilty and I am anxious to keep the trend going forward. Unfluted ![[Linked Image]](http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/bb428/GreybullPrecision/Wyo%20Arms%20Shop%20Pics/DSC01030_zpsd8c36a66.jpg) Magic ![[Linked Image]](http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/bb428/GreybullPrecision/Wyo%20Arms%20Shop%20Pics/DSC01032_zpscff4ed91.jpg) Now it is fluted and the gas port is in. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/bb428/GreybullPrecision/Wyo%20Arms%20Shop%20Pics/DSC01035_zpsb1e76e0f.jpg) As normal the coated BCGs continue to amaze and the light bodies are really quite the step above. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/bb428/GreybullPrecision/Wyo%20Arms%20Shop%20Pics/DSC00949_zpsc15f50eb.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums/bb428/GreybullPrecision/Ar-15/DSC00979_zps7490fe1c.jpg) Got the coating on the barrel extension dialed in and boy does it work nice. [img] http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums...s%20Shop%20Pics/DSC00972_zps05a794f1.jpg[/img] I do love living in a State (Wyoming) where the Governor, Matt Mead, loves talking about guns at the Mansion and can buy the best in AR type rifles. [img] http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums...20Matt%20Mead/IMG_1387lr_zpsc7d19a10.jpg[/img] [img] http://i1205.photobucket.com/albums...20Matt%20Mead/IMG_1399lr_zpsfb30ef71.jpg[/img] Ever get the feeling you are 2 steps behind the big boys?? Shoot I almost forgot, but Surefire's Maggie Reese won High Lady at the Superstition Mt Mystery 3 gun with our barrel and Mike Voight placed in the top 5 overall with the WYO LOK barrel at the same event last weekend. Cheers

I'll let you "out" yourself if you're so inclined.

John,
NO PROBLEM with a brief sidetrack to show us some nice AR type firearms! I did not even know that you were in the AR business! The AR-15 / Stoner platform is sure becoming popular. Calif. is going to find out soon that they are THE common firearm people arm themselves with for self and Country protection and will be forced by the courts to scale back their ban.
Do you make a pure varmint shooting / Benchrest format AR with a 24 inch (or thereabouts) full bull barrel and a good trigger? I am wanting to aquire such a rifle in the near future but I don't much care for short barrels or two stage triggers for my gophergun AR's.

Dude did you really just make references in your post claiming those are YOUR lowers and YOU own Wyoming Arms LLC? Your clearly a part of the place but owner........ All legal records of that LLC appear to belong to another individual. Business license, FFL, Trademarks the whole works appears to be registered to Jeff Leisy as his name is the ONLY one registered as owner. Have heard good things about the wares from friends involved with high end suppliers here but all of them mention only Leisy. Also not sure how you can call Wyo Arms one of the big boys after 18 months of businesses. Lots of manufacturers have a shcitt ton more wins and do so routinely. No attack, just trying to clarify my interpretation of your post
