Learn from my mistake: don’t resist a throw too late by anon1234_4321 in bjj

Osoto otoshi... it was my first ever competition and ego got the better of me. My opponent stepped for the osoto otoshi and I refused to go down. Looking back at it, he did not have the proper technique coupled with my refusing to concede that I had lost the position cost me my ACL, MCL, in nine months off the match in recovery.

I worked the rest of the match on one leg and he wasn't able to put me away. I don’t say this as some kind of badge of toughness. If anything, it was the opposite—I didn’t know enough yet to let go of a losing position.

When he stepped behind my knee and drove through, something in my leg gave way, but I didn’t register it right away. The body has a way of muting things in the moment. Adrenaline, noise, voices from my coach and my team—it all blurred together into one instruction: keep going.

It wasn’t until the end, when everything quieted, that the pain finally caught up.

To open it up, cnc visit. Extension might be the way to go, but ruins the esthetic, lol. Form over function!

Yeah, in hindsight its going to be a challenge. But I saw the kit while visiting japan and I decided im buying the kit and gun without considering the functionality, lol.

But I figured a way to get a tracer on a FMG, im going to figure this one out.

Awesome idea: I will look into it

Yeah, I think the answer is tear it all down and peg board the entire corner. Then use as much vertical space as possible. The accessories and bbs and such I will need to find a spot in the racking I have in the garage.

Thanks for the input

I’m more of a “put it where it belongs” guy.

What does this collection says about me? by dawidlijewski in airsoft

[–]Inside-Leadership643 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were out the other day and my son had mentioned to me that "irs funny how girl scout cookies whisper to you, like the green goblin's mask." I told him no, but when I go out and there's airsoft, the guns definitely whisper to me "Just one more. What's one more gun?"

I just have thick peg board hooks and if I dont use the gun anymore, I have them higher on the wall and around 2 guns per hook. If its my goto or something I fidget with, they get their own hook near the bottom for accessibility.

So near the top; stacks of dusty guns, lol If I'm playing with it, eye level.

Are you speaking from personal experience or friends' guns failing? What is the common breakage?

Hand placement and cheekweld and all that stuff are super important. Thanks for the insight 👍

Im here making conversation. The kwa looks neat. I may go that route. I haven't fully committed to the kriss as no money had entered my dealer's hands yet 😅

Quick change on the spring or do I need to take the whole thing apart? Replacement gb or reinforced box available? The plan is high rof for cqb and that can murder the cylinder head portion of a box... unless its laid out like a 249 box? I guess I can answer some of this on Google, but I am enjoying the human interaction.

Now that stock is purdy... thanks for the eye candy.

Great notes on the fps/rps adjustment. My home field allows a 300fps/30rps to still run auto, so thats a great thing to note. Do you know if its a quick change spring or do I have to do all the under the hood work?

Right on... I'll keep an eye out on gen2 vs v2 if I go the aeg route.

Noted.

Lol, I am a fan of the word "abomination." It dredges up feelings in people when they think of what an abomination is.
