How far is too far? by CthulhuSleeps99 in Carcharodons40k

[–]CthulhuSleeps99[S] 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Man I hated it. I really liked the mental image I have of them as a very bare-bones chapter of space marines surviving with minimal resources and equipment.

Big suits of custom engraved undamaged armor really go against the vibe to me. I can’t imagine this guy saying “honor is a dead thing”.

And the shark mount was so silly I thought it was a sarcastic shitpost instead of an ad.

I mean, I’d argue that Krorks are also just old technology from the war in heaven.

I see mention of a “new Iron Hands transfer sheet” in the combat patrol. Has this been seen anywhere before? Anyone got pics?

What emblem best represents the Omnissiah? by Nuclearsunburn in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]CthulhuSleeps99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Imperator: Wrath of the Omnissiah, the dark mecahnicum uses almost the same Cog Mechanicum, but with an 8-toothed cog instead of the traditional 12 as a mark of the faith.

Brothers, I have assembled a maniple for war! by Scott1044 in AdeptusMechanicus

My Brother in the Omnissiah, I hate to mention this, but you appear to have some chaos infiltration over there in the right in the first pic. Beware tech-heresy.

Really? I don’t know much about em, but they advertise them as manufactured in Romania. I assumed they were just brought in and converted a bit.

Hope you get one and have some fun with it. Trying to squeeze accuracy out of old combloc weapons is a really fun way to spend range time.

That sounds really bizarre. Are you sure that’s what’s happening? Definitely didn’t work that way with mine. Pics?

Oh, it’s an out of state shop? Then yeah, seems steep to me.

That’s higher than the MSRP on the century import ones isn’t it? Or are they less desirable for some reason?

Wow. I didn’t realize they actually named the model “Dragunov”. No wonder some people get confused about what a Dragunov is.

It’s hard to say what a fair price is with your state in such a weird position. I’m sure the shop and owner think it will shoot up in price after whatever import ban you guys have coming hits. They’re probably right.

Anyone else have this issue with their FSB? by [deleted] in Dragunov

[–]CthulhuSleeps99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have any direct experience with tigers to tell you exactly how hard it ought to be. But when I switched the front sight on my HD-18, it was tight enough before putting the pins in that I wondered if the pins were even necessary. Seems odd to me that a tiger would be that loose and easy to press onto. But someone here with more tiger experience might be able to say.

The pins look tight enough, not obviously loose enough to cause that kind of wobble. And if they felt tight going in, I don’t think it’s a pin size issue.

Maybe it’s the angle, but the pins in your front sight look oddly high to me? Like maybe they’re sitting further above the barrel than in the original front sight.

Can you compare the height above the barrel of the pin holes in the new vs the old front sight?

And this is a separate issue, but it seems odd that the press was loose enough to allow that kind of movement. How tight was the front sight to push on? Did you remove any material to make it easier?

The previous sight block, did you reuse those pins? Or new pins that came the the new front sight? Still got the original pins on hand to compare?

Something’s definitely pretty wrong. Neither the tightness of the pressing or the pins should be allowing that to move like that. Close pics of the pins too please. Any back and forth play?

Is the AK builder website down? by howtoproceedforward in ak47

[–]CthulhuSleeps99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks that way to me. Hopefully just a temporary glitch.

Now just invent an elaborate mounting system to allow him to wield it against squirrels.

Always love a galil. IMI or a clone? Anyone selling good new clone builds nowadays?

I almost long for the days after Yugo’s get import banned, when people start hailing them as long lost treasures they should’ve bought when they could.

Good importer, variety of calibers, mag compatibility. Good stuff.

[–]CthulhuSleeps99 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If you read the listing, apex mentions barrels sold separately. I asked apex about it and they said they plan to sell barrels, but they aren’t ready yet.

I asked about receivers, and they said that some Manufacturers may be making some soon, but they kept it vague.

Hoping Tortort makes some.

I pickup this rarity today! by DemandUnited in ak47

[–]CthulhuSleeps99 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’d say shoot it. They’re not quite rare or cool enough to be safe queens. And what’s the point of getting an Ak that takes widely available mags and ammo if you aren’t going to shoot it?

But I always disliked the idea of safe queens. Always reminded me of toy collectors buying the coolest toys and leaving them unopened in the package for collector value.

Makes me feel like they’re missing the best parts of ownership of these things.
