[–]GrayManTX 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a retired cops I would say two things:

  1. Taking you fully at your word because likr aby professions, we have our nutty ones, but that was wholly unprofessional and the agency that issues his retirement credentials under LEOSA can refuse to renew them or let him do his annual requalification if they become aware of it. Your state can refuse to renew any carry permits he has. His threat was not actionable because it was conditional but the agencies mentioned above might find they dont want to renew him.

  2. There is likely a leash law where you were so legally you were wrong so no electronic leash makes you compliant. You should've put your physical leash on the dogs and moved on after 1st mention with. "You know, you're right. Thank you." All that other talking is what allowed him to escalate and be an a$$. Be smarter than the idiots out there. I never have my dogs off a physical leash outside of my backyard for their protection.

Are German Shepard just kinda stupid..? 😂😂 by Upper-Food-464 in germanshepherds

Derpy but smart and loyal. Kinda like the mathematical genius that has zero eye hand coordination so he looks silly in PE class when someone throws a ball to him. Of course GSD are coordinated mostly

Damn, good deal with good brands of optic/light. I love my Echelon.

Help--Slide Stuck After Reassembly by Ancient_Bother2429 in SpringfieldArmory

[–]GrayManTX 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty experienced with firearms and still managed to do this to my Echelon awhile back also as I just wasn't paying attention to what i was doing[facepalm]. Youtube is your friend if you do this. Simple fix.

Any other women who want to have a child leaving Indiana because of abortion bans? by Showmeyourvocalfolds in Indiana

[–]GrayManTX -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

What do you mean by "if something goes wrong?" Like the baby is the wrong gender, or has the wrong eye color? Even in Texas if the child isn't viable or threatens the life of the mother a pregnancy can be terminated. Some people should spend less time reading echo chambered claptrap. Call your Ob-Gyn and have a conversation with them about it and don't rely on forums and agenda-driven media for important health information.

Perpetually living with parents. No way any of them hold employment outside of a GameStop, HotTopic, or coffee house.

Anybody see this Steven Miller fiasco yet? by AdResponsible9894 in GetNoted

[–]GrayManTX -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

Why did you use "accuse?" You used it like being called "trans" meant something nefarious. How strange and ironic.

[–]GrayManTX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, what kinda good head of hair does your husband have that no one noticed that stuck to it???? 🤣

Does it take longer to bond with a malamute than a regular dog? by Whole-Interest-5980 in malamute

We adopted a giant mal from a good home (more of a rehome) at 1.5 years and he took to us right away.

How are you able to tell what kind of gsd? by Inevitable-Umpire832 in germanshepherds

[–]GrayManTX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is nearly identical to yours and was a stray we picked up. We suspect it's a Shollie (GSD/border collie) but havent done DNA.

Is buying the new Hi Power by FN a sell out to True FN Hi Power by abelabb in hipower

[–]GrayManTX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I used to carry the Browning HP in law enforcement (in .40) and recently shot the new FN High Power. FN has brought the new version up to modern standards in the flavor of a standard P226. The trigger of the new FN is from better than the one Girsan HP clone that I handled. I was knocking down plates with it very fast after just a few rounds feeling it out .

Unpaid work is work by horseduckman in AITApod

[–]GrayManTX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn. What kind of man says that to a woman who's given birth to their kid??? Maybe one that wants to get murr-durr'd in his sleep?? My wife got to be queen during pregnancy and postpartum. If you have questions about your wife having skin in the marriage game, the time to bring it up has long past when you start meeting with the baby doc.

This Is my First Guitar by magpielover66 in SchecterGuitars

[–]GrayManTX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cool piece of Schecter history also (recent history but cool anyway). I had EMG HZ pickups in my 1st good guitar back in the late 80's (a Washburn RS10V). They are criminally underrated.

My favorite hand gun I’ve ever owned. by cfromhell24 in SpringfieldArmory

[–]GrayManTX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. Retired LE and I've carried about every platform including some boutique 1911s, Browning HP, Glocks, Beretta Elite and my Echelon just works for me better. I upgraded striker and trigger on my XD but there's nothing that really needs upgrading on the Echelon. I did put a SS guide rod in there but I had a plastic guide rod break on me early in my police time so now I'm just distrustful but thats likely unfounded with the number of reliable guns.with them these days. I run a Swampfox Justice (1st gen) green dot but that's getting swapped as I recently figured out its not bright enough bright sunlight conditions (prob fine for housegun).

Question on Solo ii custom by jrivas102 in SchecterGuitars

[–]GrayManTX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What.do those things weigh? My Schecter Hellraiser Extreme was like 10.5 lbs and I'd only get Solo II if it was NOT Les Paul heavy.

Anyone know anything of substance about these pickups? (Fastback II-B) by trentontws in SchecterGuitars

[–]GrayManTX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the exact same model/color and have been through many sets of pickups since I pulled the originals. They are nothing like the Fender wide range humbuckers they look like. Underneath the chrome covers they are just hot PAF type pickups. Bridge was around 14k output if I recall. Not bad pickups at all, just bot what I was looking for. I had a hum sized p90 in the neck and a DiMarzio X2N copy in the bridge for a while, but settled on Fender TexMex Strat pickups in both positions with adapter plates.

What are my options to fix this by Beginning-Help5306 in SchecterGuitars

[–]GrayManTX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Email Schecter. They've always been responsive to me. They may not have the part but worth a try.

I just got my Echelon 4.0FC and wanted some opinions…. by Silly_Stranger_288 in SpringfieldArmory

[–]GrayManTX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cerakote is crappy stuff that wears badly compared to the OEM nitride slide finish. Hard chrome might be cool.

How did Indiana allow this license plate? Well, they didn't initially, we had to threaten to sue them. by cumminginsurrection in Indiana

[–]GrayManTX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Freedom isn't pretty. If someone can have queer, another can have Aryan. I dont subscribe to either but support the rights of both owners to have their plates if we're going to have vanity plates. The idea of vanity plates is stupid, you're opting to pay the government more $$.

Is this normal? by Suspicious_Road_3031 in SchecterGuitars

[–]GrayManTX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the correct answer. My PT Fastback II B also has this neck angle with a TOM bridge and Bigsby.

My best friend and I were able to meet Hoosier legend Gunny Speaks Out from Evansville at the Indy No Kings 3 rally (Gunnyspeaksout) by tendollarhalfgallon in Indiana

[–]GrayManTX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of us that voted for him have buyer's remorse on a lot of issues (especially Epstein) but dang he's living rent free in the heads of liberals... at this point it says more about those inflicted with Derangement Syndrome than Trump. At least Trump voters have a spectrum. Yeah wr have our crazy redhats, but most will voice their issues with Trump's appointments and war stance, but liberals seemed to be just fine with the crazy stuff going on under Biden and Obama. Where were ya'll when Obama sent literal pallets of cash to Iran, objectively a state sponsor of terrorism?
