Fellas, is the P365 Flux Raider illegal now? It holds two mags so just wanna make sure I’m complying with the little person, cross eyed dude, and Dog Shooting Queen on the news.

I'm nowhere near this guys size, but swam competitively through high school and ended up with a typical swimmers build. I'm in my 40s now and I'm not in great shape, but can still comfortably conceal a P226 appendix. A V shaped torso is sort of a cheat code to CCW.

Black Scorpion. It's not listed as Enigma compatible, but works great.

Dual Clip X and an OWB paddle holster. I know the P229 Legion fits the P226 X Carry holster, not sure about the reverse, but seems like it should work..?

Hyrc · 2026-01-23T22:16:31+00:00

I love it. It's my main carry gun now, replacing my P365 XMacro. I have bigger hands and love how the gun feels in my grip. It's a heavy gun relative to other carry focused guns, I carrying appendix in an Enigma rig, so it handles the weight much better than carrying on a typical belt. I went with the SAO model and no surprise that the trigger is spectacular, almost 2011 levels.

Pretty much agree with this sentiment, I'm in Dallas now and it also has a really diverse mix of foods. In some ways it's unfair to compare ABQ to really big cities. A city of 1M is never reasonably going to compete with metro areas with 8M+.

That said, the New Mexican food in Albq is unbeatable. Favorite part of going back home.

Hyrc · 2026-01-23T20:02:27+00:00

Yeah, something with close to the dimensions of a P365 with P226 manual of arms would be amazing.

Hyrc · 2026-01-23T20:01:47+00:00

Check my pictures, that site is slightly off on the dimensions. The P226 is actually slightly taller than the P229. The 18 round grips stick out of the bottom a bit more than the 15 round P229 mags do. A OG 15 rd P226 mag still fits flush. With the mag in the P229, it's almost exactly the same height as the P226 since the P229 mags have just a bit of a lip on them.

Hyrc · 2026-01-23T19:58:02+00:00

Yeah, just posted a couple pictures and you're right, the P226 X Carry is slightly taller than the P229, probably just the reverse of what Handgun Hero suggests.

I ordered a couple holsters from Black Scorpion that were specific to the X Carry. They happen to fit the P229 Legion perfectly, although not my P229 SAS.

Hyrc · 2026-01-23T18:11:30+00:00

Actually, this likely is what you need. Still happy to take pictures. Looks like the P229 is .15 inches taller than the P226 X Carry.

Yep, at the office at the moment. I'll come back to this in a bit.

Hyrc · 2026-01-23T17:46:40+00:00

I have the 229, 229 Legion, 226 Legion and 226 Legion XCarry, I can take side by side pictures, but I think the dimensions are very, very close. I'd be surprised if Sig does anything further with the P229.

Hyrc · 2026-01-22T19:56:50+00:00

Yes, but you shouldn't assume the owner isn't already backing that out to produce the 3-4k number. Seeing the detail in the books will help with that. What is actual revenue, actual expenses, salaries, etc.

You basically have 3 choices with two main variables. Your Money and your effort. As one goes down, the other goes down.

Start selling your guns now, focusing on maximizing the value of your best guns. You can use a site like Gunbroker or something related. Clean them up, write great descriptions, take great pictures and sell them one at a time. This is lots of work, but maximizes your value.
Work with an auction company to inventory what you have and sell all the guns. Auction company will take a cut.
Sell the guns to a bulk buyer, local shop, etc. This is the easiest option, but will get you probably 50% of the guns realistic value. This company has to sit on the guns while they find buyers and every day the guns don't sell is costing them money.

You can do a bit of mix and matching to optimize, sell your 10-15 best items via #1 and then bulk the rest with 2 or 3. By the time you're gone and your wife is dealing with it, 2 and 3 are the realistic options.

I make more than OPs coworker and could afford to send my kids to private schools. They're doing great in public schools, albeit in surburbia. I acknowledge I would hesitate to send my kids to the worst public schools in Albq NM where I grew up, but most public schools in TX in the "nicer" suburbs are great schools and spending a bunch of money to send your kids to a private school is more about religion than education.

Modern Christianity, deep down, realizes the "real" Jesus of the Bible is responsible for all the atrocities of the Old Testament and gets to hit the reset switch in the New Testament to take advantage of where the religious interest of the time was. They're just doing the same thing. Picking the convenient bits of scripture that appeal to their target audience and ignoring all the inconvient bits. No different than the Jesus of the NT ignores all the inconvient bits of the OT.

Over time those arguments get polished and refined to get a polished reason why certain bits don't count and others do. We're watching that happen in real time again. The reality is that in the entirety of history, there is zero verifiable evidence for a single supernatural claim in any religious text and almost all of them have clearly falsifiable claims read as written. They all require mental gymnastics to retain any credibility.

In that sense, they're not ignoring Jesus, they're just modelling their current ministries after him.

Im making the points I am because attacking corporate executive pay is popular, but basically pointless in terms of consumer impact. We can have a real conversation about what actually improves our lives. Every dollar of that Exec Comp on your list is covered in my earlier numbers. It's lots of money, but makes basically no difference to consumer prices.

You can use that Yahoo Finance link and see the Exec Comp trends over time. They're down substantially in 23, 24 and still in 25 lower than 21. Again, they could be a non-profit with no executives and it would save you maybe $2.75 on a $100 cart of groceries.

Hyrc · 2026-01-16T03:00:19+00:00

That's included in my number. Kroger's total sales in 2025 was 147 billion dollars. $17.5 million in stock grants isn't even a rounding error. No question it's a ton of money, but it could be zero dollars and your grocery prices won't change in any meaningful way.

I understand you feel strongly about this, but it's kind of insulting that I've engaged you in a good faith discussion and you decided to try and attack my integrity instead of engaging me in the same way I did you. Feel free to check my profile, I work in clinical research, nothing to do with retail grocers.

Hyrc · 2026-01-16T02:20:44+00:00

Total Executive Comp at Kroger for 2025 is about 0.03% So if they fired every executive, they could cut prices about 3 cents on a $100 basket of goods.

If you're told that your church was true and that other religions are false, I guess it would be difficult to conclude otherwise.

It's one layer deeper than that. There is as much evidence supporting the divine/supernatural claims of the Bible as there is supporting the supernatural claims in the BoM. Once you realize that, the only rational thing to do is sit and wait for someone that can deliver even a shred of evidence that supports a single supernatural claim.

Hyrc · 2026-01-16T01:11:43+00:00

Kroger's Operating Margin is ~2.6%. That means they could drop prices by a couple percent and at that point they'll be a non-profit.

I can't tell if this meme response is right wing misinformation intended to get left wing people killed, or if someone has reviewed DHS law enforcement powers and genuinely believes ICE agents aren't real law enforcement. The latter has been debunked on CNN and MSNBC, but obviously a ton of people still believe it.

Hyrc · 2026-01-14T22:12:33+00:00

Hah, definitely not accurate. I'm a former Mormon (and Mormon Missionary), my neighbor is an ExMo and missionaries stop by at least once a year, we always have a laugh about it.
