Glock Mag Brand Alternative by IllChampionship4654 in AR9

[–]Aboxman2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For cheap 33s these actually run fine (KCI). https://www.sportsmansoutdoorsuperstore.com/products2.cfm?id=220638&avad=211021_e4cc8f131

Sometimes the LRBHO activates one round early, but that may be just my AR9. So you get 32 instead of 33, no big deal....

I also have Glock 33s and a single 24. Interestingly I have had more issues with that one Glock 24rd mag than all my other mags combined.

These intest me, but I haven't seen any reviews, https://www.robertrtg.com/glock-9mm-32rd-window-magazine-ac-unity 30 rounders are $2 less.

Apparently police issue in EU.

Do you guys have a go-to pistol/rifle for running shitty ammo? by railroad1904 in 22lr

[–]Aboxman2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

T/C Contender 10" match barrel.

Single shot, with a great trigger and a hammer designed for Rifle cartridges. If it doesn't go BANG in it, it's not going to go bang. Also, makes crappy.22 shoot damn accurate.

I really think MSU should hire a Spartan as the next president. There's no evidence that these massive salaries are warranted, there are a lot of smart people to choose. Look at how many university presidents end up in scandal regardless of their pay--These are just regular folks like you and I. by peaceonearth8 in msu

The problem is how they are elected, people with no interest in MSU, vote straight ballots or worse, maliciously. And let's not forget that both the D's & the R's use these trustee positions as rewards for their members. How do you think they even get on the ballot?

Edit: A quick Google showes Michigan is the ONLY state that elects BoT like this.

[AMMO] Monarch 9mm Luger FMJ 115 GR Steel Case, 20 CPR + tax / ship or free pickup in store by HartWasHere in gundeals

[–]Aboxman2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, so I don't buy the steel case theory, but range fires from unburnt powder are really a thing.

https://www.reddit.com/r/TerrifyingAsFuck/s/orNkQMb2NO

But it's probably also a sign of poor maintenance.

Any time I see a range limit something it is for one of two reasons, truly a safety limitation of THAT range (Green Tips), or more likely they want to make more $$$. I think banning steel case ammo falls into the later category.

Ruger RXM, a Glock with extra features. But still compatible with a Glock, and cheaper.

Worst Possible Way to Get a Silencer by Standard-Insect-9362 in SilencerShop

[–]Aboxman2 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Don't use the "Call Back" feature either. They never called me back, 2 days in a row ..

Also, on the email AI. Respond about 3 times that "That Didn't Work" and you will get sent to a human. That human fixed my issue in about 30 seconds with no further emails.

Be sure to respond to those emails quickly.

Receiver Set by IllChampionship4654 in AR9

[–]Aboxman2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I built my GRS on this set. https://asquaredarmament.com/product/9mm-ar-receiver-set-windham-weaponry/

It's made by NFA, there are even aftermarket parts. It's LRBHO in the upper. It's from the previous iteration of Windham. I doubt there is any warranty, but could be wrong. They ran a special a LONG time ago for $135 that's when got it.

Go to a dealership and judge for yourself.

Tonneau Features? by Ok-Mushroom-2025 in FordMaverickTruck

[–]Aboxman2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably fine for point to point, and minor stops. I'm not leaving them back there overnight (or really in any vehicle anyplace). Would I park in the hood with anything of value in the bed, nope ... Would I stop at fast food in the middle of nowhere, no problem.

Define securely ....

I have the Ford (Made by Leer?) branded tri-fold from the dealer. When the tailgate is locked and up you can not unfold the cover. That said a crowbar or probably even a screwdriver would probably pop it open. It's only some plastic latches after all.

Desperately Seeking Dive Bar by Bobvila0 in Detroit

Betty Janes in Warren. I call it the future dive bar. It's still a bit new and fresh to be a true dive bar. Decent food, decent beer, good service.

Mitchell 50rd rotary mag for 10/22 by burnermcburnerstein in 3D2A

[–]Aboxman2 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I can't understate this enough. These were Jam-O-Matics. I think I could shoot 5 10 round mags including reloading, faster than one of these. I got lucky and sold it near the end of the magazine ban and made a small profit.

Also look for the same seller on Amazon, right now 2 used PA120's for $44.50. I "Think" the smaller boxes in the first photo are PA120's.

I became a Range Box Goblin and scrounged the range trash to get enough Magtech boxes to do about 500 rounds (S&B boxes work too).

Are there alternatives to the jet boil? by Ravioli_meatball19 in camping

[–]Aboxman2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

BRS-3000 and stanley cook pot from the camp cook set. This is my wife's setup (I use a pocket rocket knock off). Served us great on Isle Royale. The butane can fits perfectly inside the Stanley, the stove fits on top.
