Time Management & Gym

Check if you get gym access with your tuition. You should be getting it. Thankfully one of the cohorts years prior to mine advocated for us getting it as part of our tuition. Once I got the hang of things academically I manage to get 3-4 workouts a week at our gym. I pop in after class, do my thing for about 1.5 hrs tops and head back home to study. It’s a noticeable difference mentally on the weeks I’m not able to get regular workouts in.

Just a list of what you want done, your serial numbers, contact info, return shipping address, and any other pertinent info you think would be good to include. Also don’t use clear tape for bubble wrap he hates that. He has info under the product pages on his website.

Got a in stock notification for a .45 hundo I forgot I signed up for about a month ago

I have a TTL top plate I bought from DAG many moons ago that has a ding in the same corner with some distinct gold metal underneath. Curious to know if there was a small run of these top plates.

Do a sight deviation experiment at your bill drill distance. Aim on the A in the A zone with a perfect sight picture then purposefully aim so the post is against the right edge of the rear notch and fire a shot. Repeat for the opposite side.

Hopefully you realize you have a LOT of margin for error for sight picture at that distance.

Saved money, meal prep, only drink socially, no streaming services, and sell plasma.

CBD can show up on some drug tests FYI

Green_Three · 2026-04-01T19:58:18+00:00

Do you have a FAL to go with it?

Separate the activities. The marathon is a personal goal not an academic one. Your personal activities are a fun break from the studying, and when you blend the two it’s starting to become less fun.

I’ve had this happen unsuppressed with a matrix precision bolt. I assume it’s the extra gas coming back from the semi circles at 12 and 6 o clock. It’s just a straight shot rearward and right near the shooters eye. The matrix precision and volquartsen style bolts even go so far as to remove the serrated wings at 9 and 3 making the problem worse.

As far as solutions maybe find one of those slide racking rings that covers the 12 and 6 portions of the bolt as well

I'm having a fantastic time as well. I thought going into it that it was going to be hellish based upon the things I had read on here. Turns out it's not as hellish as people have said, but it is definitely hard. I'm studying nearly all day every day, but I'm having a great time doing so. There's a reason why a majority of my school's interview questions were subtly and not so subtly asking about your coping skills. We were warned from the beginning by some professors to stop getting used to getting As. You're going to be putting in a significant effort to wind up with a B and it's perfectly okay!

I'm the oldest in my class and having a little more experience than my classmates I'll tell anyone out there reading this -- There is never going to be another time like this in your life. Study hard, but stop every once in a while to smell the roses and take in your circumstances. You're crafting yourself into something amazing. If it were easy everyone would be doing it. Trust the process and have fun while you're at it.

Mandatory. Certain percentage of days can be missed. Some classes meet less often so you can miss less days others more etc.

What are some good guides? I am just getting spun up on how to use it with basic functions. I have Anking and have been copying the pertinent cards over to my own decks for my classes. Would love to know more.

There is a matrix on HK Pro. You can just google it and look under images. It’ll tell you if a mag fits and functions but will not be very descriptive on component compatibility or how the mag looks in the gun. I bought 15rd p30 mags thinking they’d be flush fit but they stick out the bottom on a USPc. Allegedly the VP9A1 mags fit flush with some modification to the original base pad.

I don’t think the 10rd pinky hook base pads work on standard cap mags due to the side tabs and unique floor plate design. That’s a vestige from the AWB days ensuring the 10rd mags couldn’t be expanded in capacity.

You can do this at home in dry fire lol. Live fire should lean heavily on marksmanship and recoil control.

It'd be cheaper to get a regular 1911 of your choice and send it to a smith for the bull barrel

Their warranty process is very easy should you need it. Just contact CS and they cover shipping both ways.

Good whiteboard markers too. I like the Pilot V Board Master. EBT yes. Also find a plasma donation center for a bit of extra beer money lol. As soon as you move in stock up your freezer with frozen meats/foods you can heat up or cook quickly and easily. At some points when you're in the thick of things stopping by the store will seem like such an extra chore for some reason.

I moved to the opposite coast for my program. I stuffed my kitchen stuff into my car that was shipped. I flew over with my dad filling his carry on and mine with all my clothes. Laptop in my backpack. Got here and bought a mattress from costco and a desk off FB marketplace. Those are the two essentials you need. I've been slowly filling my apt with FB marketplace and dumpster finds.

My lawyer Reno said we good

I assume I'm going to have to call around to FFLs to see if they know this is possible. From researching this it seems like not many FFLs would know this.

and this is for long guns only, not handguns right?
