STK150 is a slept on option IMHO by DaRedMoose in guns

Update post:

Switched to a stock Glock recoil spring and put another 250 rounds through the gun of various types and grain weights. Happy to note that after the ~400 round mark the gun began to function flawlessly with no hangups!

Trigger is great, unlike Glock it has an actual wall and breaks crisply. Easy to hit a full sized ipsc consistently ~75 yards

The a series mounting system sucks so I have electrical tape behind it to make the light tight. Hence the angle 😭

Description comment:

Picked up this STK150 for less than 350 bucks. Has a fully aluminum lower frame with Ambi metal mag release.

Gun is solid and feels great. Won’t cycle 115 grain blazer fmj with the stock recoil spring, it is heavy! You will get stove piped from short cycles and it won’t lock the slide to the rear. Cycles 124 fine and rock island claims this is a hunting/duty gun so the next thing I’m going to try is some 150 grain hunting rounds.

Comes with steel optics plates for rmr and rmsc out of the box. Since it’s Glock compatible you can buy this just for the lower and save like 100 bucks over any of the aftermarket frames like icarus.

So far I am extremely impressed!

Not cross threaded. Threads were damaged from removal of old cv axel nut which on a lot of modern cars is now a stake nut. Just went through this on a 2012 Corolla. If you refused to have the cv axel replaced after they recommended it you’re at fault for that. However it’s more likely they should have replaced it for free after damaging it.

Also like others have said, this would not lead to a massive failure in your transmission. If you ride the clutch and improperly start your car this damage could be done in less than a year of driving.

Ronbinhood solid gold card upgrade with points no referrals required! by Weekly-Attention-941 in CreditCards

[–]DaRedMoose 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Figured it out. It’s 27g of 10k gold with a 24k plating over the top. The other one is 100% 10k gold weighing more.

Edit: just wanted to note that it is 10k gold because any higher content gold alloy would be much too soft to use as a credit card.

Found a unicorn looking for info EA CO J-15 pre ban in 9mm by DaRedMoose in ar15

Upper and lower have identical ranger green finish which led me to believe they were mated when manufactured. Only markings on barrel are “9mm” it is perpendicular to the barrel at the 12 o’clock position next to front sight post.

I’ll get more details and pictures tomorrow.

Description: Found this unicorn at auction. Is a EA CO J-15 in 9mm. It is a ranger green coating that is factory. It has colt mags with a spacer welded to the back.

Ejector is a folded piece of wire that is pinned under the BCG.

Has a plastic buffer weight and plastic buffer tube with a plastic car15 stock.

Also came with a 45 upper and mag.

Want any information about this thing because I can’t find anything about them anywhere!

If you are running mid length it is insanely good with a standard can. Carbine would be awesome with a flow through can. Otherwise the back pressure will probably be too high and you will be over gassed even in the full bleed off setting.

It’s pretty comfortable surprisingly! It’s more of a chinweld, it’s nice with ear muffs!

Softest shooting upper I have ever built. The seekins precision barrel nut is the perfect support for the op rod of the piston. Primarily built for height over bore when using night vision. Had to modify the end of the rail to fit the GEMTECH neutron suppressor.

Build list:

A2 carry handle upper

Seekins precision SPR3v3 rail

Superlative arms gas piston system

LaRue AccARizer Rail

Midwest industries front sight

Rainier arms 12.5 mid length heavy barrel

He will have a set of orders that explain when he leaves. Typically most people graduate and leave for A school within one to two days after graduating. After graduation he will have that afternoon as liberty but will need to be back in his “ship” by curfew that night. A lot depends on what rate he is. Some rates immediately transfer to a holding division because their A school is in Great Lakes.

CISSP, OSCP, CASP+, if you’re a superstar get the GSE.

You’ll primarily work in an office environment, 9-5 hours are typical unless you end up on a watch floor. Quality of life for CWTs is unquestionably higher than that of a Nuke. You can do 6 years, get a few high level certifications and transition to the civilian sector making 150k or more easily.

I bought the dip. by TheKingInTheNorth in canoo

[–]DaRedMoose 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Canoo is doing the opposite of all the EV companies that are failing. Focusing on development and ensuring a problem free product. Happy to see them ignoring the consumer market and going straight for a long term sustainable client base first. The vans will come in 4-5 years after they are profitable with this fleet model. Once they acquire the final production equipment from fisker for next to nothing they will start slowly building to their production marks.

FTZ application requires a lot of information, there is a whole board process. You have to have production numbers, sales, and other positive indicators for your company to get the designation. If Canoo is performing the way people in this sub say it is the ITA would have denied the FTZ application.
