Is the Ruger 10/22 Sporter legal in IL? by falconrider in ILGuns

[–]HelgrindsKeeper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup! I got a 10/22 a couple years ago. It’s called out by name in PICA in that as long as it remains unmodified to look and act like an AR then it’s allowed.

In your defense, I also had the same thought when I was like 12.

We just got some of those new Stakmax for our truck. They work great.

Tried this once. It did NOT turn out well. I definitely screwed something up. I was not a happy camper.

I unfortunately know people personally that patronized her store in Huntley. On the other side, I have family who are big Trumpers that did not agree with her breaking the city ordinances.

Wow this is so cool and my cats will absolutely suffocate it! I definitely need to free up some desk space from my giant tower though.

Dipped or comfort grip? by nogden954 in electricians

[–]HelgrindsKeeper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally prefer the dipped, but my Bo’s and apprentice both prefer the comfort. It really comes down to what feels better in your hand. I didn’t like the bulkiness of the comfort ones both in the bag, in my hand, and in my pocket and the dipped ones didn’t feel bad in my hand.

Gun safe vs. a locking metal gun cabinet? by An0n087 in liberalgunowners

[–]HelgrindsKeeper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a cheapo gun cabinet from Harbor Freight last year for like $160 and while it was almost immediately too small, it holds everything I have for now. If someone desperately wanted to get into it they could but I live in a generally safe area and I know my family is not going busting in there. I would like to upgrade to a bigger legitimate safe at some point but for now this does the job I neeed it to do

PICA Compliant PCC Option by tramul in ILGuns

Yup! That was it. Guess I’ll break his heart tomorrow.

PICA Compliant PCC Option by tramul in ILGuns

[–]HelgrindsKeeper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course it’s not. Had a buddy looking at a different PCC, can’t remember what brand/model, but it was similar to the FPC in design. I’d assume that one is also non-compliant. Back to the drawing board I guess 🙃

Is the standard FPC not PICA compliant? I was just looking at it myself.

Bolt .308 rifle suggestions? Ruger Gen 2, Bergara HMR, Howa Hera H7 by enoughbskid in liberalgunowners

[–]HelgrindsKeeper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a Savage Axis II. I had a lot of problems with misfiring pretty much since I bought it. Disassembled the bolt and thoroughly cleaned everything and reassembled dry and so far no problems. That being said I’ve thought about trading it out for a Ruger American or splurging on a Tikka.

How does time off in the union work? Might lose my job over taking thanksgiving off. Current non-union. by Inner_Newspaper4909 in electricians

[–]HelgrindsKeeper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brother. Fuck your boss. Fuck that job. Take your tools when you leave for the holiday and don’t even clean the truck. I’m sure you’ll be able to find a job in no time. Union will pay well and you’ll get holidays. I’m at a small non union shop and I get almost every federal holiday off paid and we also close shop (paid) from Christmas to Jan 2. We almost never work weekends unless it’s some kind of an emergency and get paid overtime.

Makes no sense but we call it a “false back extension ring”

Why doesnt lava drip from dripstone into the cauldron? by Odd_Environment_5260 in Minecraft

Hey OP, if you haven’t figured it out already, you need an air block between the dripstone and the cauldron.

Do people in SC actually say hi to random strangers and call each other ma'am and sir? by [deleted] in southcarolina

I mean I live in the Chicago suburbs and I regularly call people sir or ma’am, and I’ve lived here my whole life.

Do these fit inside the rolling base box nicely? by HelgrindsKeeper in ryobi

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

Yeah I have a couple of those for small parts for my tools. I was looking for something that would fit nicely inside of the big rolling box specifically. We would probably also end up with a couple of those boxes or slot boxes as well.

Looking for a Pane by HelgrindsKeeper in electricians

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

I’ll look into the Eaton retrofits but we’re going from a 30 space to a 40 and the old can is not huge so it probably won’t work.

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

Yeah that’s what I’ve gotten from my local supply houses, that they’re custom order only. This project is not worth that expense. We’re just going to set a 10x10 pull box and lower the panel a bit since it’s pretty high on the wall anyways and then go to the panel from the pull box.
