Can anything just be fun any longer?

Why does everything have to be tactical, extreme, or a brawl nowadays?

Sponsorship.

Sponsorship and the fire arm industry have been around for ever this is not a new thing. The "Tactical" "Extreme" is just another marketing ploy.

I would only call it "Extreme" or "Xtreme" if people were shooting back at me.

That sticker is awesome.

It's so Xtreme that Extreme isn't extreme enough.

Wow!! Great read!!

To give you an idea of how played out this hispeed talk is, take a look at "Tactical Rovers":

http://tacticalrovers.com/

These guys don't just drive Land Rovers. They're too xtreeem for that. They drive "Tactical Rovers".

These guys are a little different:

http://www.expeditionops.com/

They don't just go offroad. They do "Expedition Ops". This is another "ops" site:

http://www.landops.com/

These guys are into geocaching. That's using a GPS and looking for matchbox cars and GI Joe dolls inside of ammo cans buried in the ground. That's an Op.

This isn't your standard gun shop that sells guns and ammo:

http://xtremegunsandammo.com/gg-g-extre ... bipod.html

Forget Guns & ammo. It's Xtreme Guns & Ammo. These guys are all about being Xtreme. Even the bipod they sell is for "extreme duty". But these rookies don't even sell the Burris Xtreme Tactical scope line:

http://www.burrisoptics.com/xtrtactical1.html

Nor do they sell the IOR illuminated Xtreme R2D2 reticle:

http://www.valdada.com/6-24x50-35mm-sfp ... um-reticle

On reflecting back on my life, I feel an extreme (with an E) void on not having been an Xtreme (no E) tactical operator...sigh

I tactially hunt ground squirrels. Kick logs over n shit.

John what you are failing to see is its all about marketing no more no less. Take the name Land Rover. I know you know the history of it. But how many soccer moms or suit guys ever take theirs off pavement let alone use 4 wheel dirve on them? Land Rover wouldn't sell nearly as many vehicles if there Company was named Urban Sport Utility Vehicle Company or what ever they basically are. All it is about is Marketing no more no less.

This is for those survival situations that more more extreme than extreme or even Xtreme. This one is "Mega-Xtreme".

TRUGLO TG150X STRUT-STOPPER XTREME SHOTGUN CHOKE:

http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewIt ... =283667161

The TG150X R2D2 C3PO Xtreme choke tube. It's for when your patterns have to be Xtreme.

The Gen2XR Xtreme Reticle:



This R2D2XR reticle is for Xtreme shooting.

http://www.remington.com/products/firea ... range.aspx

Tactically xtreme!

Beretta's gone Xtreme too:

http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewIt ... =283931138

This is bullshit:



It comes with all of that and there's not even a shemagh included.

Xtreme Air. Presumably, it's for those hispeed situations when regular air just won't do.

I own all of those products!! My favorite is the Extreme Air!!

I think I'm going to put an X-tream stage in the next rimfire match, just for john and the other operators. You better bring your tac gear.
