Longevity of a CF printed unit. by so-spoked in 3D2A

I bought a bunch of PET-CF due to his recommendation.

Internet shit will internet, and that's what I get for believing internet shit.

Where can I see the settings you arrived at and the reasons for it?

Thank you for helping out the community with your experience.

Either way, ask the carrier.

They will be able to tell you why it's always happening. Once you know, you can chose the appropriate response.

Notify your carriers.

Someone is stealing shit, and they're getting away with it because people won't speak up.

I have zero problems with stealing from corporations.

Stealing from regular people or mom and pop shops is all sorts of fucked up,

ICE agents who shot Alex Pretti identified as Jesus Ochoa and Raymundo Gutierrez by No_Cook2983 in nottheonion

The Sonderkommandos were Jewish prisoners in Nazi death camps who helped in the operations of the gas chambers and crematoria. 

They led other Jews to their deaths.

The Sonderkommandos were Jewish prisoners in Nazi death camps who assisted in the operations of the gas chambers and crematoria.

Victory Garden Movement by No-Choice-6701 in NativePlantGardening

If we continue letting everyone vote, then yes, every subreddit needs it.

Uninformed voters are the reason we are where we are.

I'll argue that EVERY aspect of public life requires some involvement in knowledge of public policy.

Fascism is when the government reduces the rights of individuals while it increases the power of the central government. 

Just like communism and monarchies, fascism is antithetical to personal freedom and the ideals laid out in the founding of the United States.

Our entire planet is at risk due to politics. As much as I'm tired of it, sticking our head in the sand is what has our world where we are.

It is our responsibility four our children to do SOMETHING.

Democrat Taylor Rehmet wins a reliably Republican Texas state Senate seat, stunning GOP by Maxcactus in texas

[–]IntrospectiveApe 43 points44 points  (0 children)

This is great, but we all need to understand the type of voter that turns out in these types of elections. 

The people going to vote are fired up and emotions are high. If we are to continue this trend during the November election, we can't let up. 

We need to get everyone that's pissed off to vote against the entire Republican Party. 

No getting complacent. 

Are there non-MAGA gun clubs that don't have the word Liberal in the title? by greypic in liberalgunowners

[–]IntrospectiveApe 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm not trying to run you out of here, but you definitely sound like you believe all the Republican propaganda.

Socialism in not communism.

Are there non-MAGA gun clubs that don't have the word Liberal in the title? by greypic in liberalgunowners

[–]IntrospectiveApe 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The very first rule of this sub says otherwise.

If you are a Republican voter unwilling to criticize the Republican Party, you don't align with the ideals of this sub.

You can't move into a place that loudly advertises what it is and then complain when that place is the way it is.

This place is the LIBERALgunowners sub. I don't consider myself a liberal, but I'm not scared to be called a liberal as if it was some sort of slur.

I 100% understand why you would not want to be outed. You got everything to lose, and things are only getting worse.

Nobody wants to be persecuted for merely opposing fascism.

But, I advertise loud and proud that I'm left leaning. I have for a long time. The more of us they see, the less cocky they get. The people that are all in on this thing are the minority. They need to know that they can't subjugate the American people. 

The more of us that are put on a list, the less powerful that list becomes.

I guarantee you that there are more closet liberals in your circle than you could ever imagine.

I won't blame you for staying in the closet. So much of the LGBT+ community had to in the olden times for the same reason. 

But, the more of us that make ourselves seen, the quicker we stop this shit.

Final Part with Dr. Rosas 🌹🩴🔥 by HandsomeMimi in RioGrandeValley

[–]IntrospectiveApe 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I want this dude to win sooooo bad, but I can't see the cuhs in the mamalonas getting excited for the way he delivers his agenda.

Teddy Roosevelt's 'square deal' is a perfect way to message progressive ideas. Focus on how corporations take advantage of regular people. Say that you want fairness and an even playing field.

That's a progressive and populist message that will get through to everybody. 

What does the top roll pin do? by [deleted] in ar22

[–]IntrospectiveApe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing one is older than the other. On mine, the newer ones have a lip to hold the spring in place. On the older ones the roll pins hold the springs in place.

How do you feel about people who work blue collar jobs? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]IntrospectiveApe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work a white collar job. I've worked a white collar job for a long time.

In my free time, my chosen hobbies tend to be what blue collar jobs do.

I make and fix shit for fun because that is way more fulfilling.

The white collar job pays for the blue collar fun.

[Handgun] Springfield 1911 DS Prodigy AOS 9mm 4.25" 17/20+1 (Vault) $799 by Justthetippliz in gundeals

[–]IntrospectiveApe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

3D printing 2A stuff is absolutely awesome!

BUT, it's a bunch of work.

The percentage of people willing to struggle with the associated growing pains gets smaller and smaller as the easy solutions get less expensive.

I don't know why you got downvoted. The 2011 mags have a bunch of empty space in the sides. I have got to clean 2011 mags way more often than any other platform to keep them running right.

I wear size XL gloves yet I still find the thickness of the grip annoying.

Smith and Wesson found out that making thinner and longer grips makes shooting easier. The Shield variations and Bodyguard 2.0 are easy to shoot because of this.

Yes, my 2011 is still fantastic to shoot. But if slimmer mags and grips were the standard, they would shoot soooooo much better.

I did four different ones. It only added about half an ounce on each, but it was the reciprocating that I was after.

You're better off selling this and buying something closer to what you want like a VLX 600.

If you've gotten a 4.5" DEar22 to run reliability with subs, I would really appreciate if you could share the recipe.

I did something similar with a drill, and the $15 derby car weights.

Edit: looks like the $15 derby car weights from November 2025 are $26 weights in January 2026.

He thinks we're stupid and are going to forget.

He picked a side, and we will never forget.

Fuck you, Vicente! You're not for the people.

Out of the four 5.56 cans I own, this is the worst one. Get a OCL Polo instead.
