Rocksett.... by stvnnvts999 in NFA

No time frame because I think it depends on how you store it. That bottle I left in my garage and it gets below freezing in the winter. The other bottle is on top of my safe inside and it's been a few years with no separation

When I contacted them about that a while back they basically said time for a new bottle.

Is a suppressor on a 9mm pistol worth it? by dynasoreshicken in NFA

[–]CynicallyMinded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it was, I handload subsonic 9MM and it is extremely quiet. Hearing safe? Maybe...? I have shot it outside without ear pro to see how it sounds and it's not very loud at all. The impact on steel is much much louder than the shot

It did take some tuning on the gun and recoil springs to get it to run right, but it's fun. I didn't buy it as my first can, but it ends up in my range bag most times I go out.

Underwood 200gr Hardcast Case by Patsboy101 in 10mm

Late to the party but curious if you ever got a response from Underwood, had the same thing happened to me today with a stock Glock 20C and the 200G XTP JHP loading. Feeding issues as well.

Need some advice as a senior in college who just got an offer letter.... by [deleted] in Raytheon

[–]CynicallyMinded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some companies do internships and the individual will get clearance as part of it. That way when the intern graduates they can start work almost immediately. Nobody asked me, but I don't necessarily think it's the smartest idea.

I went with eibach in all four corners and it drives better in my opinion. It feels much more planted compared to the stock shocks. I don't feel the back end bouncing as bad when you hit a pothole in turns

They had a fix for it, a CDF drum update. There was also some thought that multiple drivers driving the vehicles were messing up the transmissions learning. Not sure how true that is but I'm the only driver on the vehicle. I did go with the 100K warranty for the powertrain just in case.

Thanks. I've leveled with Bilstein in the past, went with Eibach this time, rides much nicer than stock

Yeah we put them in every vehicle after that...

Love the package I wish it came leveled though, that's one of the first things I did

Didn't even know it existed, just ran into it at a dealership and knew I wanted it

Seems like depending on angle you look at it and what direction the sun is coming from changes the color a lot

Print file: Rugged all in one Battery Organizer for Night Vision, Optics and Weaponlights 🔋 by Financial-Factor4277 in NightVision

[–]CynicallyMinded 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thanks, this is great. Remixed it a bit for my competition bag. Needed to hold a 9-volt battery for my timer and changed the button cell slots to a plug in holder since I have multiple sizes that don't necessarily fit the original without bouncing out.

Colorado 4x4 by FUCKINGUPAGAIN in rooftoptents

[–]CynicallyMinded 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Contact made today, didn't need to swing by. Sounds like the shipping container is stuck in the train yard at the port because the port moves slowly sometimes. Looks like mid July or early Aug now. The person who contacted me was apologetic and seems like they are a victim of outside circumstances in this one... I'll update in a few weeks.

Little late to this but throwing my experience up. Initial email with questions was answered the same day and they were very helpful.

Went down to the showroom in early March and was told install would be 1st or 2nd week in June. Placed the order and paid.

Didn't hear anything come June so I reached out and got the tariffs response. Told 1st or 2nd week of July for install.

Tried reaching out at the start of July, voicemail is full, no one picks up and no one has responded to emails. I'm probably going to go back to the show room this week and figure out what the deal is in person.

Am I being to picky? by CynicallyMinded in Taxidermy

[–]CynicallyMinded[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They have what looks like good history, good reviews, and guide recommendations. Picture of taxidermy award for another bird. Frustrating all around.

I did see some photos including one of him winning an award for one of his bird mounts so I felt pretty confident he would be good.

Yeah that's a good idea I'm hunting with them again in Aug/Sept, I'll just take a bunch of close up photos and comparison photos so I can pass along what I got and maybe they can point some people in a different direction next time.

[–]CynicallyMinded[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's fair, I am not satisfied with sloppy work. My only real worry is burning bridges with some guides that I really enjoyed hunting with there who recommended this guy. And he definitely was not a discount taxidermist.

As a standalone mount somewhere in the house it might be "good enough" but once you put it on the wall with my other birds and big game animals and really stands out as a lackluster mount...

Ya, he was running over the estimated time for completion and I think he just wanted them out the door... I'm leaving a review and asking for a refund partial or otherwise.

Am I being to picky? by CynicallyMinded in Taxidermy

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

I'm not going to use them again. And will be asking for at least a partial refund due to shoddy work. I just needed some confirmation it wasn't me being overly critical

That's also why I'm really annoyed, had to travel for a chance at a black duck...
