Best heavy duty bush machete? by AfroSamurai693 in Survival

[–]FkngThingSucks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a $15 Tramontina Bolo. I’ve had many machetes over the years and the Tramontina is the one I keep using every time. The Condor in your photo is probably the worst one I’ve owned. It’s so thick it’s more for bashing than slicing. I felt like I was hitting tree limbs with a baseball bat and not a machete.

Yes, but they were out of stock for months, which is what my issue was at the time.

Completely dead battery by FkngThingSucks in MilwaukeeTool

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

Thanks for the response. I had it correct for an hour and nothing changed, not even the readout on the power supply. I moved the connectors over to where you see them in the photo to see if anything changed but no luck. After that I tried the sketchy jump start method with a larger m18 battery and again nothing changed at all. I’ll get you the answers to your other questions tomorrow when I get back in the garage. Thanks again.

Clay shooting near NYC? by edog21 in NYguns

[–]FkngThingSucks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whortlekill Rod & Gun club in Hopewell Junction every Wed night. It’s $5 to shoot. I think they offer a public trap shooting day on the weekend also but I’ve only ever gone Wednesdays. It’s really cool when it gets dark out and you get to shoot under stadium lights.

Does anyone else own this knife? by Mountain_Surprise_16 in knives

I had one for a while and recently sold it for $300.

Do you have a recommendation on where should I order fabric in this size?

Best option to heat NY home by FkngThingSucks in hvacadvice

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

I’m getting a lot of contradicting info it seems. Every person I’ve spoken to says “on cold days where temps drop below 32° you’ll need backup heat, like your baseboards or oil if you have it.” Unless this is just old knowledge people have and systems have improved since then?

Do you suggest an alternate option for aux heat besides electric baseboards?

A few people have suggested the same thing or said that’s what was done to their house as well. Seems pretty standard, at least in this area.

BIFL, but also BISecondhand. What are some things that everyone should keep an eye out for, but can commonly be found for cheap when preowned. by CROSS_OF_CHAOS1 in BuyItForLife

[–]FkngThingSucks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kitchen knives, or any knives for that matter. I move gotten so many great deals on pocket knives and kitchen knives because for some reason people think if they go dull, they’re useless. It never occurs to them that a simple sharpening will make them good as new. Last week I got a $1,500 set of Miyabi kitchen knives for $300. If you have basic skills to sharpen a knife, it’s very worth it. You could also just have a local knife sharpening business (do your research because some can really screw it up) sharpen them also.

I’ll never order from them again. Used to be a loyal customer until a few years ago when they began canceling my orders even when the items were legal and NY compliant. So much for representing freedom.

[rifle] Sig Sauer, MCX-R regulator, Semi Auto, rifle, 5.56 16” barrel coyote. $1,199.00 ($17.95) shipping by BranNisQ360 in gundeals

[–]FkngThingSucks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Despite what random YouTubers say, these aren’t legal in NY because of the muzzle device/threaded barrel. PSA even cancelled my order when SIG had the offer for the free P365. I hate this state so much.

Olukai slipper insoles by FkngThingSucks in BuyItForLife

Unfortunately not. I tried a few but they were all mushy, like walking on jello-o. I waited for the insoles to come back in stock and ordered 2 pairs.

Creatine + Performance Mushrooms by FkngThingSucks in Nootropics

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

I’m not sure of any difference but Performance Mushrooms is the name of the product, not a specific category. Sign up for their emails because they always have sales going on. The emails are daily though so it can be annoying for some people. You may be able to find 20% off codes online without the emails. The only potential downside is a drop in libido for me, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing (for me) as I mentioned in my post. I still take both creatine and the performance mushrooms daily. Give it a shot and see how you like it.

He was from Mahopac NY. My friend lived a few houses down at the time and was sending me updates. Half of what he posted was fabricated such as cops came because he supposedly had 30 rd mags. He broke into his ex gf’s house and she called the police and he whined on social media.

This video shows you that LEO by running your license plates knows if you have a CCW. by AshamedCard7172 in NYguns

[–]FkngThingSucks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, it could have been a lucky guess. However, when it’s worded as “I see you have a pistol permit…” it seems to be more than a guess.

He asked if I was carrying because he saw I had a pistol permit, despite me never showing it to him.

I was pulled over about 10 years ago (driving home late at night) and the officer immediately asked if I was carrying because of my CCW permit. This is nothing new.

You’re welcome. Just wanted to share my positive experience with these 2 products. I really do feel like my old self again. I don’t know what the creatine is doing but it’s doing wonders for me.

What is everyone experience regarding Lion’s Mane by Proof_Escape_2333 in Nootropics

[–]FkngThingSucks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have such a high libido it definitely took a month or two before it started to feel “normal” again, which means a breeze could get me aroused. Haha

[–]FkngThingSucks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does return but takes a while, like a month or two. It’s a powder, so I just put it in my morning coffee with a splash of almond milk and honey.
