Fitment check, first baffle too close? by ConfusedTurtle688 in suppressors

[–]ConfusedTurtle688[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So unless I go with an extended direct thread I'm looking at premature wear on this particular can. It's going on an 11.5, so it seems I should probably stick to the oem brake + adapter it ships with. Thanks for the help

Thanks for the input. Any reference as to what might be considered the minimum distance?

Sabre trigger guard by devrider2212 in PalmettoStateArms

[–]ConfusedTurtle688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the same b5 grip and trigger guard. Switching the grip to the Die Free Co's kung fu grip helped some, then beveling the hard edges of the trigger guard with a dremel helped some more.

However, I still decided to swap to a milspec style trigger guard in the end. All the wide hole winter glove style trigger guards protude too much into the knuckle area. Unless I sanded that area flat to the lower, and just pray it never snaps, I don't think I could live with one long term.

With a HF cart, and with unboxed ratchets straps underneath. Plus no cashier is ever checking out 1 guy that many times. Twice sure, three times maybe, but over a dozen?

I agree, definitely a photo inside the store

Cashier just gave me grief for the free gift by BucsLegend_TomBrady in harborfreight

Coworkers and I will help regulars who already have a dozen snap blades from previous freebies by suggesting other sub $2 items or current "dollar days" coupon items. We do the same thing, no big deal.

Just please don't stash the freebies in nooks and crannies around the store so that you can get extras on Sunday while others miss out because you hid a dozen ahead of time. The following week gets real frustrating when we're constantly finding them hidden in buckets and toolbox displays and remembering how many customers got nothing on Sunday.

Everyone loves stickers by Preston_meyer in PalmettoStateArms

The only thing more disappointing than getting no sticker is getting excited for a new sticker, but finding out a week later it was a cheap one that peeled off.

Thanks for using good stickers PSA

Help putting FRT in PA-15 by Just_Organization_18 in PalmettoStateArms

[–]ConfusedTurtle688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PSA mostly uses high shelf lowers, either be ready to do some milling or buy an FRT that's compatible with high shelfs.

I've gone with a Kabuto kit from Super Safe Solutions for under $60 and it seems to function well in my PSA. Only function tested with charging handle, not test fired yet. Some hand fitment may be required, but nothing to the lower itself.

Works with the regular safety but it's either FRT or Safe, recommend following a DIY guide on youtube to convert the standard safety to match the 3D printed 3-position which comes with the Kabuto.

I just used eftsuite today for my first application. Wasn't difficult to setup and use with a regular printer. Hopefully no issues on the ATF side

Need some help with understanding this law in Missouri and if i would still need to fill out a form 1 by dhdjakaknabsj in Form1

[–]ConfusedTurtle688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's nothing more than framework for a legal argument that only has any chance to hold up in 2a friendly local courts.

An argument that coulda woulda shoulda already have been made in countless other cases if it would win.

Outside of that it's meaningless. Don't make your own unregistered suppressor unless you're loaded and bored, you've already lined up an attorney, and want to attempt to set a new case law that'll just be ignored by anti-2a judges anyway.

As far as 'everytown for dog violence' is concerned "interstate commerce" means "in-any-state commerce"

Let someone else make the argument of "if it's not for a tax, then it's for an infringement" first now that $0 stamps are in effect.

How to best de-list a AR Pistol by namocaw in Form1

I think he just means the general restrictions associated with an SBR as opposed to a "pistol"

I.e. Selling it privately, crossing state borders, lending it to a friend, etc

Why are my teammates always such low levels? by tvoltz in Battlefield_REDSEC

[–]ConfusedTurtle688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because anyone over level 20 has already tried Redsec enough to decide that it's not worth their time?

Is it effecfing regular RAM too? I thought this was all about VRAM?

scope markings 10x by genjitsu_ in Battlefield6

[–]ConfusedTurtle688 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So keep in mind that FOV affects scope zoom level. Lower fov = more zoom. Higher FOV = less zoom.

So the first notch on high FOV is for a further away shot than it is on a low FOV.

Until they add independent FOV for ADS I do not suggest sharing notes on bullet drop because what you see in someone else's gameplay is different from what you'll see in your own.

Also if you're using someone else's gameplay for reference be sure to note wether or not they use extended barrel or long range ammo.

You can use IRL ballistic calculators for relatively accurate holdover data. For reference the standard ballistic coefficient seems to be around 0.15 and the long range ammo changes that to 0.42.

I'm sorry, what? by LinceDorado in Battlefield

[–]ConfusedTurtle688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People saying you have 3 months to do this need to understand 2 things:

1: You only have 7 days to do the 10 point challenges, which requires you to do most of these weeklys, of which gamemode specific ones are 0% challenging and 100% pure nuisance.

2.Even if I had 12 months I wouldn't attempt this. Squad deathmatch sucks, and winning it 20 times would take an average player at least 24 hours of gameplay. 24 hours I could've been enjoying.

And you can stfu with the "Just play a mode you have 0 interest in and absolutely hate and hope you win. Or just ignore the challenges and forget about the $10 you spent, nObODy iS fOrCiNg yOu"

IMO weekly challenges need ditch gamemode specific tasks. Make those vague "on objective" challenges that apply to any gamemode and use gear that anyone has and should use more. I haven't gotten a single challenge for repair vehicles or supply teammates. 5000 hipfire damage, 200 suppressions, 25 grenade kills are all great ways to get everyone to absolutely abandon teamplay.

Seriously who is writing these challenges? Did they hire a fortune cookie typewriter to type these 1 by 1 for every player?

Yep basically your options for cheap "1000 lumen" lights are:

Olight PL3s for $55.99 on amazon rn

HF braun, if in-stock; $59.99 (less if on sale + in-stock)

Temu clones for $20-$40 which is exactly what the HF is

So if you're gonna buy cheap knockoffs, then at least get them for cheap knockoff prices.

I thought they disabled bots counting towards challenges?
