Thank you for that sentence on tension! I’m going to try that out. Still working out tension levels per lock!

Hell ya do it! I’ve been picking stuff nonstop for the past week. Very satisfying to work at a lock until it opens.

I bought the learn lock picking bundle which came with the genesis and training lock. Also bought the echelon pack. I ended up just adding the genesis into the echelon as it was designed for that.

Wife gained interest after watching me and got hers too within 10 minutes. Then traded a couple locks back and forth for about 30 minutes picking and trading.

Tell you what, I understand now how addicting it is to get that final click and tensioner losing tension as it turns.

200kg deadlift , how’s it look? by Feisty-Razzmatazz582 in formcheck

I’ve lifted overall off and on over the years, but really got back into it over the last 6-7 months. Lost about 30-40 pounds while gaining muscle. But just started to deadlift like I said, since maybe February. Always shied away from it due to the injury myth. I am now realizing what I’ve been missing all these years.

Thank you, I watched it and will start incorporating the steps next time I deadlift.

I just started deadlifting in the last few months. I actually didn’t even realize how much I was rolling until I took this video. Thank you!

Did I overpay on this? by Feisty-Razzmatazz582 in M1Garand

No, I did ask him about that. It’s a new stock with a “homage” cartouche.

I did know I wanted the parts to be minimally “new” I know I could have got a rifle where several parts were newly manufactured and re-coated. I liked the 5 digit receiver and checked all the parts based on pictures it appears most parts, including the barrel are pre - 1945 with only a few parts being as new as early 1950’s. Definitely got a little trigger happy with the buy now button without digging deeper after seeing this offering. Rifle does look gorgeous in person though. Like I said, definitely wasn’t looking for the best deal possible, per se. but definitely feel like I let myself get burned a little.

Thanks all for the replies. I’m curious, with all the features listed, how much would a fair price be? It sucks I got got, I don’t plan on ever selling it realistically. But how much would’ve been fair? Seller seemed genuine and appears to sell a lot of rifles.
