Update II: Training

Less than two weeks until Sturgis and John Farnam. To say I'm getting pumped is an understatement.

Over the 4th, I took the primary AR out to verify the EOTech and Magpul MBUS were zeroed for the class mandated (40m). So that's good to go.

I used the unexpected AR upper to build out a lower I had in the safe, so hopefully I get a chance to zero that rifle at 40m. It will be my equipment failure plan for rifle. I may have to "borrow" the single point sling adapter from the FNH pump, however.

The 5" XD45 will by my primary, with the 4" packed along as insurance.

I have all the necessary ammo purchased and packed. My usual range gear is in its usual place in the range bag.

Finally, I have a blowout medical kit that should show up in today's mail. The contents (including SWAT-B, Israeli battle dressing, and Celox) will hopefully NOT come in handy over the trip.

After 200+ times, I'm not looking forward to the drive. Thank Athena for satellite radio.
