    Wanted a Eotech 557 (when I was shooting a semi lots0 purely for the "W Factor"

    Brought a rifle in from the US along with an Eotech 557 (the then latest model)

    Dropped it the sight off a high shelf in the shed and its fucked, never even fired a shot with it.
    Turns out I cant sent it back cause exporter just bolted it to the rifle rather than do the paperwork so I now have an expensive paperweight.
    would have been better to just burn the $800 USD it cost.
    All those with dogs waiting no longer fear death. Those with many dogs waiting even welcome it in it's time.

    I know I will draw the short straw on helping clean out my uncles sheds (x3) when he passes way, and I'm not looking forward to it. Like many people he has stored things away that were going up in value and have completely missed the tipping point where they just become junk.

    I'm hoping he still has 5-10yrs left in him thanks.
    We are just tidying up his will etc at the moment as he doesn't like either of his daughter in laws, his wife is silly enough to give a lot of the stuff away, and I made the mistake of going in the back shed . . .
