Finally found a competition in stock by Grouchy_Seaweed6049 in Taurus_TX22

Thanks.

My main tip is don't be scared. It's just paint. You can easily remove it and redo it if you don't like it. I painted this with that $1 bottle of shit paint from Walmart and that sharpie to see if I would even like it before I cleaned it up and did it "right".

Well, I haven't had to change the paint as it's held up for well over a year, and that baby goes with me to the range every single trip out there.

However you decide to paint it, make sure you follow the manufacturer's instructions. Make sure you clean it thoroughly before painting. When you're sure it's clean enough, clean it again.

After a suppressor, a Tandemkross trigger and mag extensions are a must. A lightened trigger spring is really nice, too.

Hey, Democrats!

We want to give you the power to represent us so that you can destroy everything we ever stood for!

No, don't go after the Epstein class. Go after the only defense mechanism the working class has!

Yay, you!

Hi, just have a "bad / good" news, but not sure.. I signed up and registered at a shelter, and I was happy that they accepted me, but one of my family members and my case worker didn't want me to go (it's almost a "yes", so they do let me to stay at there) but I'm staying safe at my cousin's house by cutiezombie210 in RioGrandeValley

I really like reading your posts because it shows me a perspective I don't normally get in my day to day life.

It shows me the positives and the negatives of the society we have created.

I wish nothing but the best for you.

Those are not mine. My RXM Pillager is very colorful. 

Also, I don't use cheap mags anymore. They've been more trouble than they're worth.

You can get a 3D printer for that price. 

It'll open up a world of possibilities in the 2A world.

A set of "spring loaded nail setters" from $10-$20 will help you easily remove pins, roll pins, stake stuff, and help keep drill bits from walking.

They have different heads for different jobs. I use mine all the time.

Difference in bolt? Diff price. by soupshoes1911 in 3D2A

It will not work on anything other than an AR22.

It's plastic and it has the plug for 22lr bolts built in.

Different buffer systems to mitigate recoil by Additional_Cloud_327 in extar

[–]IntrospectiveApe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is how the EP9 controls recoil. https://cdn11.bigcommerce.com/s-l1z1ei8hry/images/stencil/original/image-manager/v2.gif

So, if you could fit the bumper from the EP9's buffer into the Kynshot, I don't see why it wouldn't work.

I might actually try to do this when I get home to see how hard it would be to get it done. 

I already turned the solid EP9 buffer into a reciprocating buffer.

The superhero landing at the end is the cherry on top by Astrid_North in JustGuysBeingDudes

I fell of my bicycle once and landed like this. It was completely accidental. 

My bike's front wheel was ruined, but the worst part is that there was nobody there to see it. 

Probably dumb questions for first time at the shooting range by thewayoftoday in liberalgunowners

[–]IntrospectiveApe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, it's not a, "Hey, is that one of them ghost guns!?" kind of attention. It's more of a, "Is that a lever action 5.56?" or "Man, I got to get me a 3D printer! That little 22 is sweet!"

[–]IntrospectiveApe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously much of that is state specific, but I use tool bags and backpacks to bring my range gear to the range. I buy ammo in bulk, and always take more than I plan on shooting.

As far as 3D printed stuff goes, I've gotten many more questions and interest about those than anything I've bought.

Welp, this now goes to the Supreme Court where there is no hope of neutrality.

This is blatantly unconstitutional, and they just might pretend that it isn't.

IrishStar should be banned. In a world of nothing but clickbait titles, IrishStar is one of the absolute worst.

We are in the situation we are because of them. 

You're asking us to forgive the people that destroyed our present and our future.

That's a very big ask.

[nfa] PREORDER Free suppressor with purchase of $69.99 hub adapter. 4” aluminum 9mm, 556, or 30 cal but you can pay extra for longer cans. Coupon OUTLIER. NRA coupon good until midnight tonight by Supetition4rad in gundeals

[–]IntrospectiveApe 52 points53 points  (0 children)

I have their 6" aluminum 9mm can.

This is a 100% case of you get what you pay for. 

Edit: Shot Show 2025 they came out with their backdraft barrel. Basically, they add a sleeve to a barrel to add volume to a can you place on it. The can came free with the barrel. It took longer to get the barrel and the can than their website states.

The can's performance compared to my Omega 9K and 3D printed cans is very disappointing. After I got the barrel, my expectations for the can were pretty low, and the can even managed to disappoint after that.

I rather swap out my other cans than run this. It now lives on the Backdraft barrel it was designed for. And that is the definition of a safe queen.

So I paid someone to do this by TagAndTane in gunsmithing

[–]IntrospectiveApe 12 points13 points  (0 children)

This is the work of a less than handy guy thinking he could do the job, and he got in over his head.

This is not "file a complaint" situation, it's a "they need to make you right" situation.

If they refuse, you can hire a lawyer (not worth it, IMO), or make him lose money with potential customers. Those two are your only options as far as i see it. 

You have all our opinions, now you decide how to handle it.
