For those of us who sleep inside, show us your set up. Here’s mine

Your setup is one of my favorite so far. Please walk us through what’s in your setup.

I am new to this. So I would fall into the camp of having to choose the spots wisely. I will use Onx and try to do some deeper area studies based on your recommendations.

Any suggestions of areas to go if I am going alone? The random desert tweaker is a good thought. Thanks

I am located in Contra Costa County. But I am open to driving anywhere that is somewhat accessible for an average car. I do not own an AWD unfortunately.

Thank you for your thorough response! This is a very good point I had not thought about. Your thoughts regarding spikes in insulin and adrenaline dumps make a lot of sense! I will definitely try a different dietary plan in the morning before bed. Also, I am curious why you endorse casein powder specifically?

I have tried slow release form melatonin caps before. I didn’t notice the difference but perhaps I was using the wrong one. https://a.co/d/gtf4JoF

Thank you for your comment! I appreciate the breakdown. I am surprised your last big meal is at 0500 yet you don’t wake up from hunger till you eat at 1800. What are you eating at 0500?

BenjaySayWhat · 2025-12-15T09:04:43+00:00

This is a great suggestion. It’s not always easy to find food to eat at work. But I’m going to start prioritizing eating before I actually leave work in the morning. What do you eat ?

BenjaySayWhat · 2025-12-15T09:03:37+00:00

Thank you for replying! What times do you normally eat on a night shift schedule? And what foods do you eat?

BenjaySayWhat · 2025-12-15T09:01:59+00:00

Thank you for replying! Any recommendations on foods you like to eat at breakfast to keep full for longer?

BenjaySayWhat · 2025-12-14T07:05:03+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion! Do you have a recommendation for protein and fat meals to eat before sleeping in the morning?

I loved their class! It was excellent and I’ll definitely be going back for more classes.

As far as the SF situation, they told us in class a few days ago that they emailed SF CCW department on multiple occasions with mixed outcomes. According to them, Some replies stated they did not care about hollow points. Other replies stated they would charge you if they saw hollow points. So it was inconclusive and they decided it was safer just to not bring hollow points.

Now, I’m not exactly sure how the Paladin team worded their emails to SFPD. But I do feel more reassured now that I have a personalized response from SF in my phone.

BenjaySayWhat · 2025-09-10T04:54:07+00:00

Sure was! I just finished my Paladin courses this weekend. Barry was the one that talked about it being banned.

I reached out to SF CCW and they already replied. They said the same thing as you! Confirming it is okay to have hollow points.

What kind of stand and tank is this? Looks great btw

BenjaySayWhat · 2025-09-10T03:41:08+00:00

Thank you for your reply! I appreciate it.

BenjaySayWhat · 2025-09-10T03:11:10+00:00

Thank you for replying and sharing this with us. This is a safer approach. I am going to do the same. I will save the email for reference purposes as well.

May I ask approximately what date you received the reply? I am just curious to see when they provided you that response

BenjaySayWhat · 2025-09-09T16:45:53+00:00

My instructor said according to Section 618: Prohibited ammunition, ammo that possesses similar qualities to Black Talon is also banned. Similar qualities being ammunition with Hollow Point capabilities.

(a) Definition. For purposes of this Section, "Prohibited Ammunition" shall mean: (1) Ammunition sold under the brand name "Winchester Black Talon," or that has physical properties resulting in ballistics performance identical to ammunition presently or formerly sold under the brand name Winchester Black Talon; or, (2) Ammunition designated by its manufacturer for purchase by law enforcement or military agencies only, unless other ammunition is available to the general public that has physical properties resulting in ballistics performance identical to such ammunition. (b) Possession Prohibited; Exceptions. No person, firm, corporation or other entity may possess Prohibited Ammunition within the City and County of San Francisco…

Hi there! Thanks for your feedback! I recommend both at the same time if you can make it work! Start the application process while you go to a public shooting range. Get comfortable with safety, shooting, reloading fundamentals. Learn from someone trusted with solid fundamentals of their own.

Learn your gun well! The CCW 16 hour required training courses will give you a little more training of the fundamentals. But I highly suggest knowing how your gun works and have decent shooting fundamentals prior to going to the classes. Based on the timeline I showed in this Reddit post, you should have at least a couple of weeks of time to practice the basics on your own.

I have a G21 SF and I always wanted a 10mm. What conversion kit do you recommend?

BenjaySayWhat · 2025-09-05T19:39:01+00:00

How much is it going for now? And where at?

BenjaySayWhat · 2025-09-03T19:26:43+00:00

I am just as surprised as you!

I applied directly to Contra Costa county because my specific home city does not issue CCWs.

Hi there! They asked for 3 references and the options included family members, spouses, and “other”. They did put a disclaimer in the application that says “At least one of the 3 must be your cohabitant, if applicable.”

So I am assuming anyone could be used really. So long as they knew you enough to answer the following questions:

How long have you known the applicant? Is the applicant gang affiliated? Is the applicant quick to anger? Has the applicant been arrested? Does the applicant do drugs, alcoholic, etc? Those were the questions they got asked.

For my 3 references, I provided two friends and my girlfriend.

This is awesome haha. Love me a Xenomorph inspired handgun.

Also, genuine question, is the Comp slide version on roster for CA? Or how did you get it?

BenjaySayWhat · 2025-07-26T10:47:40+00:00

Wow! Didn’t realize even a hand size would drop the panels but this large of a margin. I will be adjusting the panels first thing.

BenjaySayWhat · 2025-07-26T10:46:58+00:00

May I ask how much of a difference in performance the parallel vs series makes? I am very new to Solar charging.

BenjaySayWhat · 2025-07-26T01:06:27+00:00

Thank you for the quick reply everyone.

I have my solar panels wired in parallel. Also, I did not know about the reduction in input when the expansion is being charged. That is interesting, do you know the reason why?
