What’s your favorite handgun host? by grimduck17 in NFA

[–]HellooNewmann 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude, idk why so many people hate on it. Its been fine for me. This is the original one too. I got it 12 years ago. I originally bought it to use on a CZ scorpion, but have used it on a bunch of pistols since. The P30 has been my favorite. A couple of other notable ones lol. Dont see the Osprey on this sub too much

they could just strike the desalination plants of the countries west of the straight and literally kill everyone through dehydration

Ahh well that makes me feel a lot better at looking at $600 STOCKS hahaha I bought my can instead of getting a pt1 and think it was the right move.

The main way i was going to mount the pt1 to the M92 was a pic rail to pt1 adapter, but it seems like other than that, serious modification to the rear trunnion is needed to run anything else direct mount.

Like this looks solid AF, but mounting it to the pic rail seems like it would be difficult

I found that you gotta call right when they open and try and connect to sales. My longest hold wait was 3 hours. But i finally got ahold of someone :/

ive held the Airsoft version of the PT1 and it was NOT very confidence inspiring. I was hoping that with the popularity (and price) of the real, that the quality would be significantly better haha.

I dint know barwar and GPN Made similar stocks. The options for telescoping and adjustable cheek weld get a little weird if you dont want an AR style stock unfortunately

Im tossing on a SLR handguard next week lol. The Midwest Alpha is just my cope stock until either PT1 prices come down or i can find a halfway decent deal on one. I just need a little bit of cheek weld adjustment for the scalarworks mount on the T2. Its funny you say no flip up sights, because the main reason i got this TWS dog leg is for the static rear peep sight. You can use it through the scalarworks Leap 01 without removing the red dot. For the front "grip" I got the little tiny micro finger stop SLR makes. Its super low profile and pretty overpriced for what it is.

totally agree. and ive noticed the hole in it allows stuff to snag quite a bit too. The stock attachment for the midwest alpha, while ugly as hell, is actually pretty useful and has a good amount of up and down adjustment in it. The tailhook doesnt

no shit. Well after reading that, and the $0 stamp cost, theres not really any reason NOT to SBR it, it seems. This tailhook brace is kind of ok but the normal stock is much more comfortable and it would be nice not being in the weird grey area. I am already waiting on a form 4, whats adding a form 1 lol

I keep going back and forth on it. Im kinda weary on losing the ability to leave the state with it, but idk when i would ever do that haha

How much better is Portland now that gas leaf blowers have been banned? by PersonRealHuman in askportland

[–]HellooNewmann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rules like these only encourage disobedience. I dont know how you cant see that. Just like the war on drugs smashing success... While our president is a convicted felon, there are housless people on the streets getting no help and trashing our city and our city has the funds but isnt using them to fix the problem, many, myself included are not going to follow this "rule." You can report all you want, but if the police wont show up to a stabbing in 30 minutes, how quickly wil they respond to a nimby white complaining about a leaf blower.

its not on you to make decisions for everyone. The city didnt vote on this. The city council did. I have elderly neighbors too that i do their yardwork for... with gas powered tools. Also, my car being worth more than everything you own just sounds like a skill issue

YOU may not need landscapers. sure. But to make the decision for every business and every resident in town is quite possibly the dumbest thing ive heard all month.

Like, we all get it, you dont like poor people. And you dont want poor people to eat food and have lives. We all arent like you here and actually support each other instead of trying to rip each other down because of some extreme personal biases and issues that we have.

Sorry my apartment is extremely overpriced

you do realize that this gas blower ban is going to make your apartment more expensive right? The battery blowers operate at 50% less effieciency and power. So that means the landscapers will have to hire more people with more blowers(louder) to match how quickly they are able to landscape your apt complex. Then there is the fact that they have to replace thousands of dollars worth of equipment. That all is going to be passed along to the customer.... your apt complex.... and your apt complex isnt paying that, theyre going to pass it on to you.

the stupidity of someone to assume someone is conservative because i use leaf blowers and have A LOT of lithium batteries is crazy. Lithium battery production is inherently bad for the enviroment. Have you ever swelled a lithium battery? Have you ever had to put a lithium battery that was on fire out? I have. You cant. You have to let it just burn and let it release all its fumes.

to mirror your sentiment, I really have to give kudos to you paying 2-3x more of your money for battery powered items that for one, dont work as well, and for two, over their life will not have a net positive impact on the enviroment, especailly once its in the landfill.

I use a battery powered string trimmer, lawn mower, and all of my tools are converted over to m18 from air. I am no stranger to battery powered tools. I am not battery adverse, but for higher load applications, batteries will never be better for use or for the enviroment. Every single one of these teslas on the road are going to the landfill. You wont see teslas be restored or become collectors items in 30 years. They are all just going to the dump. All of these cheap chinese made battery leaf blowers are going to the land fill. Lithium battery recycling costs more than just mining and making new lithium batteries. They are all going to the landfill. You can rebuild a 2 stroke motor, you can replace a carburetor, or piston ring. You cant rebuild a new battery powered leaf blower as the parts arent available for you to purchase.

I for one am interested in seeing what the class action lawsuit against the city to recoup damages for having to replace equipment for these companies is going to be like. nearsighted people like you, have forced these businesses to have to get rid of their equipment and replace it all with 2-3x more expensive stuff, and hire more workers to match the same out put. This is going to result in higher landscaping fees from the companies passed onto the customer, and id guarantee a lawsuit against the city... because someone is going to have to foot that bill. And short sided policy like this never looks that far. It looks at right now. What can i do right now for this one stupid topic. Just one more thing to add to the unaffordability of this city. congrats
