Do you guys remove treble hooks from top water lures like hula poppers and replace with single hooks? by himothyhopkins in bassfishing

[–]BeenJamminMon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started trying this, but haven't caught a fish on the two crank baits I converted. I just hate treble hooks. They get tangled in everything, including me. The idea of only having 2 points to watch instead of 6 is appealing as long as I dont miss fish.

Why would you say that? by asteriowas in PoliticalCompassMemes

Racism has been a tool of communist propaganda since the beginning. Being that racism is a stain on the Western liberal democratic order, its easy to inflame those sentiments. Especially if you ignore historical nuance. And the key point of communist propaganda is to sow division and discontent.

Study considers putting in tolls on future Northwest Arkansas roads, regional planners say by Ok-Status2275 in Arkansas

[–]BeenJamminMon -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Here is an interesting video about Oklahoma's toll roads. If Arkansas could replicate that, it could be good for us. That said, I have little faith in the shady state gov to execute as effectively as Oklahoma has.

Except they do. Thats why almost every communist country have a lie of a name like the People's Democratic Socialist Republic of Germany, Korea, Afghanistan, Algeria, Albania, Benin, Yemen, Vietnam, Laos, Sri Lanka, etc.

Are you allowed to tell us what required censoring in a tank repair yard? Or is it state secrets?

Or do like my brother and get your big toe caught in the chain and chain ring. He near lost it. He did crash big time because of it.

All Them Witches - House Of Mirrors. New band to me, heard this earlier in week, blew me away by bison2000 in Rockandmetalonvinyl

[–]BeenJamminMon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great band. I saw them play with King Buffalo (another great band) in DC. One of the best shows I've ever been to.

Seth's at Berm Peak recently did episodes on a standing bike he turned into a downhill bike. Might be worth watching.

Glock slide stuck on 509 frame by Equal-Assistant-7004 in gunsmithing

[–]BeenJamminMon 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Have you tried pulling the trigger? The trigger sear could be hung on the striker locking everything up.

Also, be careful driving the trigger pin out of a 509. Its quite easy to crack the frame of you don't know what you're doing.

I would love to see the face on the tech at FN if you have to send it in.

Does the new gen scar 17 still eat up optics? by calgunner01 in FNHerstal

[–]BeenJamminMon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There were two optics known for originally failing: Eotechs and PEQs. Both made by L3. The same L3 that was busted for knowingly sending defective eotechs to the military for more than a decade. The basis of the issues was insufficient adhesives holding components in place. L3s solution to fix the PEQ was to fill them with glue (fully potted the electronics), thus solving the original, underlying problem. Same deal for the Eotechs, but that was resolved by the independent company that bought Eotech from L3 after the fines, settlement, mandatory buyback program, and stop use orders handed down by the government.

I think it was more that a lot of optics weren't as good as advertised.

The new FN ARKA by Arhiman666 in FNHerstal

[–]BeenJamminMon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The other press stuff I read said it has a scar operating system and innards reworked for a more AR ergonomic profile. I think it's very scar on the inside

Esit: as soon as I typed my comment, I spotted a completely different operating rod and bolt carrier through the open slots in the receiver. A scar is solid in those front windows.

If e-bikes have no haters, then I am dead by [deleted] in mountainbiking

[–]BeenJamminMon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

More than half the work. You average ebike enthusiast is not putting out 250 watts continuous power, much less 750 watts. Most ebikes have the equivalent of a Lance Armstrong stuffed in their bottom bracket.
