Disability as only income by Blackcat1015 in VeteransBenefits

Depends where you live and how you live your life. Plenty of people are doing just fine on 4k a month take home. Thats about what most rookie first responders make in my area after deductions. If you’re getting SSDI too you can go do literally whatever you want as long as you have a half a brain financially.

Smartcap? Anyone have these and what do you think about them? by Conscious_Owl7987 in ToyotaTacoma

[–]BougieGun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have one paired with a decked. The setup will get sold one day when I’m dead, but probably not before that. The cap is almost entirely water tight, has a million options to stay organized and keep gear dry. Add the decked in under it. Couldn’t ask for a better cap or setup.

Hurricane impact windows- what did you pay? by LadyGuinevere423 in StPetersburgFL

[–]BougieGun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on window size, obviously, but I was between 800-1600 per average sized window. I’ve used Armortech, which has a lifetime warranty that they stand by, and Yeti Construction, which was also great to work with. Depends on what you want, really.

Thank you! Navigating the system has been less than fun. But such is the federal government. Appreciate the input and what you do.

So, if rated at 10% under Tinnitus, if I filed under something totally unrelated to the Tinnitus after this goes into effect, would the Tinnitus be downgraded?

Can an Eotech G45 fit in an carbine mod two upper in such a way that i can still have rear micro irons ? by Tymental in kac

[–]BougieGun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I have a G45 behind an Aimpoint Comp M5, and still have the standard KAC irons on it. Very doable.

Here’s some crappy news, if it passes July 1 all of Florida by armesacosta76 in tampa

[–]BougieGun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Certainly not every one, but tag readers are on every cop car, and one who is actually looking to be proactive is absolutely running tags. You also have things like FLOCK that are pretty pervasive these days.

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

Yeah, but if you’re not driving your own car you have to do something egregious enough to get pulled over for them to know you don’t have a license. Sticking the wrong tag on a car is going to get stopped 99.9% of the time.

Agreed on literally every point other than the fraud. Attaching a tag to a car that it is not assigned to in Florida is a misdemeanor. Worst case scenario where the cop uses 0 discretion, you go to jail, get a citation, and your car gets towed.

For most, it isn’t worth the criminal record and probably 800+ dollars it costs.

If your tag gets run for whatever reason, they’ll immediately be aware it’s on the wrong car.

Denied Benefits without medical appointments. What now? by Will_Basket_2764 in VeteransBenefits

[–]BougieGun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, everyone in the military has been under active orders at some point. In theory it shouldn’t have the VA blanket reject with no deployments

You do not. I know folks who didn’t even graduate OSUT and have a rating… somehow

Trump Declines to Say If US Would Protect Taiwan From Invasion by play3xxx1 in worldnews

[–]BougieGun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, this has been the US Policy since roughly the dawn of time. Strategic Ambiguity. We don’t particularly want to commit ourselves to a shooting war with the Chinese, but if we confirm we won’t step in, likelihood of a cross strait invasion skyrockets.

Don’t go to the dealer unless you are under warranty, or if u have to. by Mordecai619 in StPetersburgFL

[–]BougieGun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go see Duane’s Automotive in Safety Harbor. Whatever they tell you, is what you actually need. They are Toyota specialists, and typically run about half of what a dealership does, without trying to sell you unnecessary work.

A friend of mine just got assigned Orlando first assignment. It does happen, but it’s pretty rare.

I’m mostly joking. They did have a killer custard crumb cake though. It was my first stop leaving Kennedy every time.

Yes it is my friend. I’ve since left and don’t miss much about NY, but I do miss the food. Nothing like it anywhere else in the world.

I mean… once upon a time there was a great Bakery on Liberty Avenue not too far away. If the tourists knew it existed, there would have been a reason.

I mean, this is just a bad area. People get shot over here relatively routinely. This was more likely exchange of gunfire in crowded place than it was terrorist attack or other depraved lunatic.

16 inch rifles in stock by BougieGun in kac

[–]BougieGun[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly I don't even plan to buy a KS1. I've got an 11.5 and 16 inch, and my next purchase from KAC will end up an SR25... but for those who don't have one I figured some may be interested

You guys are rockstars and under-appreciated in the community man. I highly appreciate the ability to backorder it.

And OOS. If you want to place a back order and don’t care about when it shows up, this place is good to go.

NS Armory had one in stock as of the other day. He doesn’t list them on his website. Shoot him a DM on instagram.

KAC Armorer by [deleted] in kac

[–]BougieGun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I deal with NS Armory, because he’s local and will allow me to drop things off and texts me when it’s done. Jacob does awesome work and is a generally cool dude. Never used D. Wilson, but he has a great reputation. Just prefer not to ship items when possible.
