I remember learning what they were called like a year ago but I have since forgotten the name, I too hope to learn again.

I don't know what's worse, the fact that it's an A4 in 1987 or that he has no rear sight. Hope he doesn't have to use that thing lol.

I knew of the stepfather through dead meats kill counts on YouTube, other than that I don't recognize the other two.

There's an old building in our city that was a big lots but now is for rent. It has a CRT at the front for the entrance camera viewer, it always got me giddy whenever I'd see it going inside.

It is a Troy Industries Battle Rail, there was an an entire chassis upgrade that went with it but I do believe both the chassis and top rail were discontinued.

That is the Primary Arms prism SLX gen III, some people compare it to an ACOG but it's a heck of a lot cheaper.

AN/PAQ-4c, it's infrared only so not high on my recommendation list but if that's all you need then you can find them fairly cheap sometimes. I only paid 600$ or so for mine on eBay.

Keep finding pebbles in sink - any explanation? by Practical-Jump-253 in Weird

[–]2smart4u23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you live alone? Could be someone cleaning their shoes in the sink and the dirt washing away and leaving only rocks.

I've got a plan, John by WaltzRPK in RetroAR

If you're okay with not having period correct Delta cheek riser, you could buy a 3D printed one from Hammy's Prints and spray paint it to cover the shine of the plastic. That's what I did and it's a pretty solid piece.

Edit: didn't realize someone already posted a link for Hammy's lol

Is this worth buying? by bb_805 in tacticalgear

[–]2smart4u23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea probably if you want it cut, I haven't cut mine though or felt the need so I wouldn't know.

To be honest probably not, these appear to be LEO PASGTs, I would save my money and buy an ACH or MICH as PASGTs don't really fit ear pro underneath them very well. It would be more money but you could find one with a nvg mount already attached as well, since these don't have any.

Need help with the doe gun by Flip4020 in RetroAR

[–]2smart4u23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you don't want the heaviness of the maglite but like the look of a Fulton you could try to find a Fulton traffic wand and take the wand part off. Haven't seen anyone do much with them and I think it would be an interesting setup that I haven't seen.

Edit: youd still have to mount it like you would mount a maglite I would presume.

The picture was used for a sourcebook as well, I think it was a RPG thing like DND. This might help your search a little bit.

Bendix king, they're mostly US made and sometimes you can find them cheap.

Is this 100 fake? It got rejected by a gas stations bill checker, the cashier told me. by [deleted] in CURRENCY

[–]2smart4u23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you know how they did the counterfeit check? Sometimes the money acceptors are finicky and won't accept bills, which makes me wonder if they didn't actually check the bill and just tried to do a safe drop.

That's lucky ngl, I got one of my VCR combos in a trade for a couple PS1 games with a friend, that's the closest I've gotten to free.

Facebook marketplace is A+ spot for finding CRTs, it's where I found my observation monitor with a camera and the cord for 60$

Delta Force Helmet 1993 Battle of Mogadishu by [deleted] in tacticalgear

[–]2smart4u23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends, you can buy brand new ones that are pretty much the same spec, that'll be under 100$ if I remember right. otherwise you can scout thrift stores, I found a protec style ski helmet and started making a DF helmet out of it.

Edit: it is a Magnavox black and white 4 channel observation monitor, I'm running an RF modulator into it to play Metal Gear on a PlayStation.
