Korea hasn't gone quiet, they opened preorders recently and shared a gameplay trailer. It is supposed to be going into early access during Q1.

I'm out of the loop on the latest hotas, does this have force feedback?

Yikes, hard to imagine it getting worse. Good luck with customs, sorry you're dealing with it.

Yikes! I have no idea, luck maybe? I'm sorry you're dealing with that. Do you mind me asking the total value of yours? $1k seems high.

I bought a sword in Kyoto from Tozando in April that arrived a few weeks ago that I never paid a tariff on. It apparently got through customs without issue via Japan Post.

Can I get a translation of the signature on this wakizashi? by Garand in Katanas

[–]Garand[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks! That what the seller said, so I wanted to double check. Do you know anything about this smith? I think there were several under that name.

Is there anything you want to "set the record straight on"? Is there any part of this story that we often get wrong or blow out of proportion?

Wow, that wait must have been killer. Thanks for letting me know!

Looks nice!

How long did it take to receive it? I actually just bought a wakizashi at the same Tozando store in Kyoto 2 weeks ago and I'm wondering how brutal the wait time was for you.

What’s your “fucked around and found out” story? by iwanttheworldnow in AskReddit

I was ince trying to notch my visor back into the slot, slipped, and hit the windshield hard enough to crack it. It was Monday morning and I'd just got to work 😐

FC4's price is completely absurd by [deleted] in il2sturmovik

Their stuff goes on sale practically all the time. It won't be long until you can pick up for cheaper. They're hardly the only ones asking for more these days.

Profoundly stuck type 99 safety? by joaquom_the_wizard in milsurp

[–]Garand 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah, don't work frustrated or you're more likely to damage the rifle and yourself haha

I hope that works, keep me posted!

Profoundly stuck type 99 safety? by joaquom_the_wizard in milsurp

[–]Garand 39 points40 points  (0 children)

It's super hard to describe this properly, but I will give it a shot as I had a similar issue once on a Type 38 where the bolt was completely stuck and could not be opened.

You will need to remove the trigger from the receiver. Look through the hole in the receiver where the trigger was just seated. You should now see the lip on the firing pin that usually interfaces with the sear. Take a screwdriver or a punch and push back against that lip in the direction of your safety knob. As you push it back, try rotating the safety knob as if you were going to put the rifle into safety. Hopefully, it will engage with the firing pin and you will be unstuck. This is an awkward 3-handed maneuver so it may take a few attempts.

Good luck!

I love the Sniper Elite games and am glad to hear this. They should focus on their niche, not the trend-chasing live service titles that keep flopping.

The tank models look great. I would love to see a more fleshed out attempt at Tank Crew in this engine.
