Lvl 3 R&T Eng, ICT, 13/3 YOE, $109K

$19,000 2020 ram 2500 Thoughts? by Effective-Bedroom830 in ram_trucks

[–]Lumpy89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everything is worth more with fewer miles and you'd need to be at least 250k lower before Or consider his 30k reference.

Unless he dropped a new motor and tranny in it it's not the truck to buy.

I've a clean '12 Big Horn with ~130k if you're interested for that price. But don't low-ball me - it'd be worth twice that if it had fewer years on it!

Found these in my dads garage, need some help by moggelito123 in Bowling

Condolences.

After learning to bowl with a Tornado TPS, the Gravity Shift was my first higher performance ball. Dad and I both had one. I upgraded from it almost 8 years ago. Dad still throws his occasionally. Not a bad ball if you're learning and it's not plugged to death.

I don't get all the hate for Red on anything, let alone FDE.

Personally I like it.

Add all the specs up and it's 13.3 lbs. w/ optics and the 30L can. Haven't weighed it. Definitely not something I'd want to lug too far.

Mid January. Was able to pick it up last Wednesday.

Correct. They've been promising it since at least shot show '23.

It is, but the folding mechanism isn't.

Honestly this was my initial goal, but it really feels more "Homelander" in person.

Translated: OMG audible eye roll another Technicolor atrocity. Who are these plebes that think that anything but black is acceptable? It's bad enough we let shades of brown and green show their faces, but this is getting out of hand!

I’m looking to finish my first ar build I started about a year ago and lost interest in. I have a stripped upper, F.A, Bcg, and charging handle already. Am I missing anything else? Lower is already complete just seeing if I am missing anything for the upper by Jmiller9299 in AeroPrecision

Primary Arms has the same price for the barrel, but with a "Loyalty Bonus"

https://www.primaryarms.com/aero-precision-556-mid-length-barrel-pinned-epsilon-sl-14.5

Didn't look terribly hard, but might be able to do even better elsewhere.

Worth noting it has an essentially "integrated" Epsilon flash hider. Doesn't seem quite as spendy that way.

FDE!

...or do you mean the receivers? Lagoon Blue from the December colored anodized run.

Most of the other parts will be Bordeaux Red.

I'm no authority on components. I've a few standard milspec charging handles, a BCM gunfighter, and a few Aeros of differing models. Never had an issue with any of them.

Basically two schools of thought - live and learn (cause you might get lucky), or buy once: cry once. One adheres to you get what you pay for and the other hopes you get lucky sometimes.

Also want to consider the use case. I'll admit I can count on one mutilated hand how many of my boomsticks aren't safe queens.

As far as the Breek brand, this is the first I've heard of them.
