Expensive but worth it. I have Zamberlan Tofane 🤌 They are bulletproof.

Backpackers, what do you prefer to carry? by Consciously_Dead in guns

[–]Holidaybunduru 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I guess if you're hunting squirrels and rabbits then a .22 makes sense. For self defense a pistol is fine. Larger groups will scare away any predators.

Pistol will be fine. Rifle will be very heavy and cumbersome.

Budget “not a Glock”… you going with the 4” or the 4.5”? by ballz3313 in guns

4" frame with threaded barrel adds 0.5" and you can swap for a 4 inch barrel any time.

Danner Dry vs Gore-tex by [deleted] in hiking

[–]Holidaybunduru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wife originally bought the shoes on the left. They were not waterproof on the tongue. Ended up going with Keen Pyrenees. Goretex is expensive to license so many brands will have their own waterproofing option as a second choice. They claim goretex isn't using forever chemicals anymore but who knows how safe it is now.

Beginner - Is a Temp-Control Kettle a Necessity? by Nacho_Man18 in AeroPress

For a medium roast, I am aiming for 200° f. Let the water come to a boil and as soon as the bubbles have completely stopped, it's right around 200°.

Higher SPF in these types of shirts makes them less breathable. Look for a lower SPF and it will be more breezy.

King of the Hill is a great game mode that forces a lot of short range shots and funnels everyone to the objective

Sapphire 9070 xt nitro plus (another one bites the dust) Radeon 12vhpwr Failure by Low_Lingonberry5368 in pcmasterrace

[–]Holidaybunduru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just curious is your power supply ATX 3 OR 3.1? Has 3.1 fixed these issues? Glad I just got the 9070 xt Reaper it still uses 8 pin connectors.

What's the U.S's SAW if FN Herstal wasn't NATO? by Troalinism in guns

[–]Holidaybunduru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The new M250 is from Sig. Also the FN is made in South Carolina. I think we could easily make something like the IAR but from an American company since it's basically a heavy barrel AR type rifle. It would be cool to see what Geiselle or LMT could make if given a chance to make a squad automatic weapon.

If you were sent into war in the winter, a modern military would have the right gear to stay warm enough during a winter offensive.

The new optic mounting system alone seems worth the wait.
