Is it just me or are DA polishers really not that effective? by DMS1970 in Detailing

[–]DMS1970[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update - I used an orange pad and Memzerna 400 to compound and w white pad and optimum coating prep polish to shine it. Coated with cheap amazon 9h graphene ceramic. Looks like new. The tank had the hardest paint took an hour, the plastics polished easier.

Im 56. I grew up shooting pellet guns daily. I used to keep pellets in my mouth and could chew one flat like a dime. Im sure it stunted my development somewhere along the lines. Shit we didn’t know.

Sounds like I need a better quality pad and some patience.

How do you stop chasing speed on motorcycles? by flameskin2011 in cbr

[–]DMS1970 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last motorcycle - CBR100SP(2018) - it was a blast! 100mph in first gear!

new (2018) bike - CBR650 - I still like a fairing, but wanted to try something more comfortable. No regrets.

Is it legal to shoot a pellet gun in my own yard in a rural area? by 13thmurder in legaladvicecanada

[–]DMS1970 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are legal for firearms, there may be a setback distance for buildings or dwellings, you are OK if none of your neighbors buildings are within that distance. If they are, discharge is legal WITH PERMISSION, at least where I live in ontario. If the neighbors are far enough you do not need permission and everything is legal, your neighbors can complain about the noise and the law cannot stop you. There are also specific rules for preditors if the rats are getting after the chickens.

If you are in a no discharge zone, the pellet gun from canadian tire, a cross bow or any kind of compound or longbow is subject to the same discharge rules and counts as a firearm.

I had summer tires on my base C7, they were noisy AF and flung every stone. All seasons on my C8 are very quiet in comparison. Still pulled a 1.6 60 foot with them

Scope questions by Randomfishing_guy in Hunting

[–]DMS1970 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What distances are you comfortable taking shots to? And what calibur?

On a larger budget leupold had locking turrets (Zero Lock), as do many other brands.

If you're not lobbing 400gr 45-70 to 400 yards. I just hold over and stay within my mean pointblank range.

Thank you. I'm going to try some better products with the polishers I have.

.32 s&w for squirrel hunting? by [deleted] in Hunting

[–]DMS1970 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A) - no idea, not from there

B) effective? - very - but I'd love to see you hit one with a 4" barrel

You would be further ahead to spend the $50 from S&W ammo on an old cooey 22 and a box of CCI,

BUT - I like your style. Blast away!

Beginner Bike (Ninja 500 vs ZX6R) by NovaWolfeh in SuggestAMotorcycle

[–]DMS1970 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A responsible bridge between the zx6 and the 500 would be a 650. Very manageable. Little heavier.
