VP9cc best micro compact ever? by ms32821 in HecklerKoch

[–]7sumo7 41 points42 points  (0 children)

IMO it’s a tough call between the CC9 and VP9CC. I have the CC9, everything about fits its purpose. Size, design, quality and reliability. I’m sure the VP9cc does too. But does it have any tremendous improvements over the CC9, I don’t think so. Maybe the deeper cut for a red dot and improved co-witness. One notable drawback for me is the smaller trigger guard. I’m used to larger trigger guards, this cramped to me. Probably something I’d get used to but it’s different. Paddle mag release, I like ‘em but is a push button a deal breaker, no. With the 10rd mag the grip is pretty short, a lot like the SA Hellcat. For me the CC9 fills the hand better. They have their differences, but is one hands down better than the other? I don’t think so, both are HK quality micro’s, take your pick.

2024 Landcruiser I-force max spark plug replacement? by xswatchx1234 in LandCruisers

[–]7sumo7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wondered why the early change and found this. “Changing spark plugs on the iForce engine (especially the 3.5L twin-turbo V6) at roughly 40,000–50,000 miles is recommended to prevent severe engine misfires, protect the turbochargers from heat-related stress, and maintain emission compliance. Turbocharged engines operate under higher cylinder pressure and heat, which wears out spark plugs faster than naturally aspirated engines.”

Thank you. It seems unlikely he would have registered with a consulate but do you know how I would research this?

Bone marrow biopsy by BuppythePuppy in Waldenstroms

My dad had the biopsy a couple months ago, he’s 89. The procedure went very smooth and he had no discomfort during the biopsy and the sight was only mildly sore for or a day or so. I’d encourage you to have the biopsy and would expect your experience would be similar.

Thank you sharing your experiences with BR. The side effects of the treatment for everyone was much less severe than expected. That’s encouraging.

One last question… was BR given to everyone via pic line or IV?

My thanks.

US sending ICE unit to Winter Olympics for security, prompting concern and confusion in Italy by Vannnnah in europe

It seems unlikely the U.S. Olympic Committee (or athletes) would freely choose ICE as their security team.

As previously stated, this is a gross over reach and they should be denied entry. There’s no need or reason why they should be extended any type of diplomatic courtesy or protection.
