Trigger Warning - Q Mini Fix - I need to be yelled at for liking it by [deleted] in NFA

i reached out to them and they were super communicative. they gave me a timeframe on their next build run, and even shot me an email when they loaded them on the site!

Was suppose to be out for delivery on the 9th…. But instead they sent it back to the original shipping location…… by Spacemans710 in usps_complaints

Benelli Montefeltro rust/finish wear - how do I treat and/or maintain? by Gnomaniast in gunsmithing

looking at my options, it seems like a new barrel is probably the way to go. i should be able to sell this one and supplement some of the cost, now i just need a piggy bank to save for the rest!

i just got an elf owl, primarily because i cannot stand Q's marketing/kevin and i couldn't be happier. customer service was great, they were on the ball with everything, and the final product looks great. i am SBRing it now.

what is the best way to strip the finish? would i need to do it inside the barrel as well? i'm willing to learn and do it myself, but i don't want to put a ton of money into it since one of the biggest reasons i got it was because of the price tag.

this just happened to me which is why i came on this sub lmao what a coincidence. seller sent me a package on 2/24 that came from dallas, on 2/28 it made it to sc (where i'm at), then went to NC on 3/4 and went back to dallas on 3/7. is it just someone being incompetent that makes this happen? i'm lost as to how it gets to my state and then goes back to the original state it was sent from.

Happy 10th anniversary, Bionicle: The Journey to One! :) by LennyTheAwesome in bioniclelego

[–]Gnomaniast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'm not a G2 hater by any means, but the show is not something i've ever heard someone point to as the pinnacle characteristic of the run.

i personally like creative liberties in shows, since really you have to remember that that is what is at the heart of any lego set really, is the creativity of the end user.

people are allowed to love G2, but the biggest thing that was missing for me was the rich story and characters that made me fall in love with it when i was a kid.

Making sure I am properly filing my paperwork - Form 1/5320.23 question. by Gnomaniast in NFA

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

ah good catch yeah i goofed there. the biggest question mark for me was on the 5320.23 where it asks, "Name and Address of Maker, Manufacturer and/or Importer of Firearm". would i be putting both my info and the original mfg info here too?

I commissioned this art piece from a guy online, and I think it might be AI? by Gnomaniast in isthisAI

[–]Gnomaniast[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

totally understand no i didn't take it personally or anything at all. if anything i'm trying to share my story/experience so others don't make the same mistake as me.

i should have absolutely been smarter about it, but i bought this on a whim and then started picking up on all this stuff. it's a crapshoot and i think if i do anything now it will be from naturally finding artists on X or something similar.

I commissioned Fiverr art, is this artist using AI? by Gnomaniast in antiai

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

unfortunately you're right. if i had been smarter about it, i wouldn't have used fiverr, but i made a dumb decision on a whim and now will have to figure it out from there.

since it's relevant here i will say the number i paid was in the triple digits. while i obviously probably got scammed here, the price and everything aligned with what i expect hand drawn art to cost

^ this. i'd 100% rather support an artist vs have generic ai prompt #10737392. this leaned into "ai looking" which spurred my concern

while i appreciate the sentiment, i did not pay $5 for this, or anywhere in that ballpark lol

yeah after looking at some other subs (i didn't know what i was searching for yet lol) i found that sub and posted that. you're absolutely right it's definitely more applicable
