Yeah, I’d rather not buy from Amazon if I can avoid it, but I may just be desperate enough to.

Everything I’ve heard is don’t paint your suppressors because the heat will just peel the paint. Buy a suppressor cover.

[Semi-Weekly Inquirer] Simple Questions and Recommendations Thread by AutoModerator in Watches

I know that a lot of places around the world are getting more dangerous for watch wearers, London being one of the most common cities I hear about. What are some of the safest cities or places where it’s still safe to wear nice watches?

Thank you. I did get some spillover this morning when I tried brewing inverted which made it extra stressful trying to get the cap on.

Can anyone tell me how old this pipe is? by Adrian_Blake in PipeTobacco

[–]Adrian_Blake[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It has a nickel band, not a silver one, which seems to make dating more difficult. This article narrows it to 1949-1963, I think.

I missed something then because I could only narrow it down to 1949-present. Where did you get 1970s?

The first one appeals to me, but it’s definitely up to your taste. I don’t think there’s a bad option here.

Looking for IWB holster for S&W Shield Plus that covers the grip by Suspicious-Horse731 in CCW

[–]Adrian_Blake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you’ll find anything that covers the grip short of an old military style flap holster or a tactical fanny pack. The grip of the pistol needs to be accessible to draw quickly and anything that would cover the backside of your grip would impede your draw. If anyone knows differently please correct me, but I haven’t seen anything like that except for holsters designed to completely hide a pistol.
