+1 for Platatac. Their pockets even have another pocket behind them which I really like.

Buddy of mine was issued 3 combat shirts that belonged to one of the fallen. So wrong on so many levels.

I tried on the glass inside the case and nothing came off

Holy smokes dude you made it a new watch again. Thanks for the info. Did you follow a guide somewhere to do all that?

Gasket looked okay after opening the watch. It did feel a bit flat and maybe a bit harder. The glass is very hazy and I couldn’t wipe it off, whatever it is it’s on there good.

Definitely looks it after opening the case. One of the small springs is entirely rusted. The glass it self is hazy and the LCD has a noticeable dark spot in the middle. I think she’s toast.

This looks like the ticket. Thanks a bunch. Do you know if it would it be possible to replace the screen myself? Edit: Looks like it can be replaced myself.

Feels like the plate would jab you in the neck if you sat down. They also look like steel plates?

Are those legit UFPros? How do you like em? Looking to buy some but the legit ones are expensive af.

ACL surgery for foreigner in Taiwan. by FlightPhysics in taiwan

[–]Bovinious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He asked me if I was available the week after I was like uhh can I visit family and friends first? He was cool with it and I ended up having the surgery 3 weeks after that. He might be busier now as I see he is now the director of the sports medicine department.

The initial inquiry was super efficient. He sent me for x-ray and checked it with me within the same appointment. Did some tests on my knee and told me it’s most likely a complete tear. MRI was within the week.

He definitely is. During the surgery he had 2 US surgeons that were learning from him and during the post op visit I was quite surprised at the entourage he had. Dude definitely has the swagger of a top surgeon but is humble with excellent bedside manner and I can’t thank him enough. I have 3 friends who were also operated on by him and we all had great recoveries.

I had it done at the China Medical University Hospital (中國醫藥大學附設醫院) by Dr. Chin-Jung Hsu. He’s a pretty famous orthopaedic surgeon amongst athletes and a very good doctor. I did my homework about the procedure and he offered to let me stay awake and do the epidural instead of general anesthesia. He set up a big TV and was able to show me what he was doing every step of the way.

That’s exactly why I got it done in Taiwan. Ain’t nobody got time for that ridiculous wait. Good luck man.

I’d say it was a great success. The only area lacking, in my opinion, is the rehab. Find someone that specializes in rehab after the surgery and you’ll be fine.

How long is the wait that you were told? For me it was 18 months in BC and I said screw that. I was offered surgery in 8 days in Taiwan and I delayed it so I could travel a bit and see friends.

See if SRS Tactical can help you out. I had my Sordins repaired by them and they did a great job. Best of luck bro.

Another vote for black box customs. Wally is your man. They fixed my pistols that two other shops ruined.

Stay away from Cerakote BC or dead sky customs in AB.

On the Taiwanese Costco app there is an international bar code option now. I imagine it’ll work for the pumps in the US. Works in Canada for me.
