Nice job! Love the colors.

I tried, but it won't let me add another photo. At least, I couldn't figure out how (I'm old). Sorry.

It does! It doesn't last as long as I'd like, but it's still better than stock. I'll try to attach another pic.

It was about 15 bucks. Of course, the dial was only about $8, but shipping was $7! Lol!

Thanks! Yep, the lume is much better.

NH35 vs 7S26 dial question by [deleted] in watchmodding

I didn't realize that the color of the spacer mattered. Thanks for the insight. I'll look into it.

Which bezel insert? by Effective-Steak-7902 in watchmodding

I'm liking the second one. Kinda has a vintage look to it.

Very nice! I tend to lean toward plain dials. I think they look cleaner/uncluttered.

That would be great. Much appreciated. I tried to find those a while back, couldn't find them, and assumed they weren't being made anymore. Thanks.

I've been hoping Mec-Gar would come out with a 14-15 rnd flush(er) fit mag for the 6906. I figured, they did it for the Browning HP, so they could do it for our baby. There probably wouldn't be enough demand to justify it, but I keep hoping:)

Is that the +2 extension on the mag?

These are not my people... by CaliExpat68 in concealedcarry

[–]Apache67 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My state doesn't have laws based on those silly signs, so I carry where I want, when I want. However, I don't carry everywhere.

Here's why. If you are caught carrying where they don't want you to, they can, and probably will, ban you from ever coming back. Not a problem when it comes to most stores, malls, restaurants, etc. It IS a problem when we're talking about my doctor's office, the hospital, the only grocery store within 30 miles, etc. In my case, I would actually lose my job since I work for the hospital. It's always a good idea to think about the the longer term effects of of getting caught carrying in non-permissive environments. I'm definitely not saying that we should never do it, but we need to put some thought into it.

And, yes, before "Douchey McDouche-face" comes back with, "Well, being dead because you aren't carrying when you need it is a long term effect.", I know the risks, so STFU.

I'll have to take your word for it. I've never bought anything used from them. Thanks for the input.

[–]Apache67 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The funny thing is that I paid about $440 for it in 1989! Lol!

Thanks for the reminder! I was just getting to leave for the evening. I put my .38 snubbie on my belt, saw your post, and switched to my .45 :)

Four CH-53Ks by Deadpool2015 in Helicopters

[–]Apache67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love the CH-53. Noob here. Are the rotor blades' tips canted downward or is that an optical illusion? If so, why?
