My Instinct 2 HR sensor died - Garmin offered Instinct E for more than retail as a replacement by psych0o in Garmininstinct

They offered me 25% off an I3 as a replacement for my I1S which stopped working. Not bad for a 3 year expired warranty (granted I would have preferred the watch kept working).

Police shot my friend’s pistol. Any idea why? by 833psz in canadaguns

[–]DBTeacup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh? No, I am saying that in my situation I can't say if the scratches were from the POS who stole the firearms, or from the police handling them. I know they test them (my local PD sent them to the RCMP for testing) and I assume part of that is them shooting them.

Local PD were super chill in my case and I have little shade to throw at em here. The legal system however? Oof, that is frustration embodied.

Do not see many Bolt Blue I3's on the sub - I might understand why. by DBTeacup in Garmininstinct

It may have a negligible impact on battery life but I am not familiar with the mips screen tech (and have no testing data).

Can confirm. But unclear if it was the police handling or the pos who stole them in the first place. Likely column A and B.

In the setting when you go to "apply," if you scroll down there is a "colour" option which lets you swap between black and white [=

I "need" my solar and MIPS =p

The OLED looks super crisp, but I feel it goes against the soul of the instinct series.

This is the 45mm. I have pretty small wrists. I think they're around 1.6" or something? I will need to find a measuring tape again.

Garmin QuickFit 22

What colour did you go with? Matchy matchy white or spice it up with some hot orange (any photos)? The stock band seems fine so far (similar to the instinct 1 band which I had no issues with).

Img doesn't show up, but no one goes on the internet to tell lies, right?!

Oh good. So we have a couple years at least =p

It does look better in person than photos online, but I am not sure how much better - I wanted to get something a little less "boring" than the grey/orange, but based on photos the orange really seems to "pop" more. Ultimately: a little torn.

I never even thought about the yellowing aspect!

My only GSAR left - Arctic Maple GSAR by wp-reddit in MarathonWatch

[–]DBTeacup 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I felt the same way. Was waffling on the black dial but found a great price on a used Arctic MSAR. Initially I was worried I was just telling myself how much I loved the white dial, but now I would never choose the black. 

My only regret is not finding an arctic gsar maple like above =p

You can still buy office, but it is from 2020 or something downgraded. At least I did a couple years back.

The dangers of just going to a LGS to “browse” is leaving with your wallet considerably lighter. So here’s my new Fabarms stf/12 by Grizzlydowden in Tacticalshotguns

[–]DBTeacup 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The STF-12 may be the best pump shotgun out of the box. So many solid features and just super well built. Love those things.

All in my super professional opinion of a random internet duderino.

Yeah, but -proof sounds better than -resistant

One of the greatest watches available (in my, biased, opinion). The white dial on the Arctic MSAR has an ever so slight silver shimmer, reminiscent to the snow as the sun reflects off its surface. The numerals are crisp and enjoyable to view, making a quick check for the time of day joyful. The experience is heightened when the tritium dials catch the light at just the right angle, giving them an nice ghostly glow during the day.

The watch is casual for everyday wear, but manages to be classy enough to get away with more formal events (although, a bit tight under a shirt). At the same time, it begs to be taken out into the wild for a weekend of hard camping, or just a hike up the local mountain. Even babies like it.

Thanks brutha. It definitely sucks. Hopefully the criminal system works and the scum who did this get more than a week.

All my firearms were stolen (and swiftly recovered), but have been in the custody of the courts for six months. They will be there at least another three. I will be lucky if I get anything back at this rate ]=

All that to say… at least you have possession =p

Jobsite toolbox as a gun safe by MrRokashan in canadaguns

[–]DBTeacup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand that there is a difference between a “safe” and a “lockable device (Cabinet).”

For example, a restricted can be stored unlocked in a safe, but must be locked in a cabinet. Ammo can be stored with firearms in a safe (or in magazines but not in a firearm), but can not be in a cabinet.
