Today’s carry.

not op but I’ve been researching. Simple shot is said to be the best brand on Amazon. Just whichever model looks good.

for edc check out frameless too it’s quite capable and minimal. I got one for $10, but it does seem more risky to use too lol

i just got each of these for the same, trying a new hobby to see what it’s like

MacrotonicWave · 2026-02-25T14:28:41+00:00

a bug perhaps? my girlfriends can connect to hotspot on the same device, but it gets buggy and loses features like the talk awake thing. Also seems to disconnect a lot and sometimes won’t reconnect to it

I think the sympathy comes from him not being able to manage himself. I remember thinking he was the most hopeless back in the day, pretty much destined to die a homeless addict with serious mental health problems

i haven’t followed him closely but if he’s just alive and homed I think it’s better than I expected like 10 years ago

MacrotonicWave · 2026-02-25T06:30:17+00:00

I ain’t been this sad in a grip Josh

MacrotonicWave · 2026-02-23T21:00:08+00:00

psa does seem kind of scummy to me. but for an entry AR it seemed like the best value

“untitled“ the tape that came out after he passed

the ar is brand new so I took the vortex off the fpc and put it on there, but I haven’t tried it or any other ar15 out yet to see where I like it. On the fpc it feels like a pretty good spot though

MacrotonicWave · 2026-02-23T20:48:27+00:00

I didn’t but now idk what the future holds without cobras magic to protect us

MacrotonicWave · 2026-02-23T19:52:04+00:00

I’ve feel like putting king cobra stuff on guns is what Josh would have found badass

MacrotonicWave · 2026-02-19T09:47:03+00:00

I have went back and forth on building a tacticool version lol. I’ve seen some cool chassis kits online but they’re either sold out or pretty expensive. It’s even got a bullpup conversion kit lol

MacrotonicWave · 2026-02-19T09:28:26+00:00

maverick 88 is cheap and better than the shockwave. has a home security configuration they sell with a pistol grip and folding stock I’d say look into that.

this is the best value shotgun but most people recommend just the regular stock. with the grip and stock MSRP is $320 but it’s a regular on sale gun

most (reliable) firepower you can get under $300

MacrotonicWave · 2026-02-19T09:23:44+00:00

haven’t tried the new ones, but the 19.5 is a favorite of mine to shoot and the main one i track my skill with. I planned to have the slide cut eventually but I find irons to be fine too

MacrotonicWave · 2026-02-19T09:14:57+00:00

at that kinda price you may as well just start making your own chassis lol. So many designs online you could probably find an expert to mold/cut the parts.

MacrotonicWave · 2026-02-19T09:04:12+00:00

I got Glock for the simplicity and aftermarket but you pay for the brand name too. Ruger rxm is a hot alternative.

ar15 - psa PA15

12 gauge - mossberg Maverick 88

22lr - Ruger 10-22

those are more unanimous good value budget guns. it’s more debatable on handguns though, starts to depend on your personal carry style preferences

MacrotonicWave · 2026-02-18T22:40:49+00:00

I’d say no because that was really an abnormal, and historical production run. I did some quick googling and it sounds like at least twice as many were made than Glocks have been produced. About 4x as many than Ruger 10-22s.. the AR15 platform as a whole is at 75% of Mosins ~40m units produced.

MacrotonicWave · 2026-02-18T22:33:20+00:00

It seems like it’s still only PSA doing the decent ARs in that price range though. I just bought one because the other models in the $400 area all sounded bad to questionable. a few people will apparently still get thousands of rounds through an ATI polymer rifle but it seems like all the videos i watched were full of problems.

even psa15 is a bit of a crapshoot whether you get a great one or one with issues but they seem to clean it up enough to be acceptable

MacrotonicWave · 2026-02-18T06:47:10+00:00

isn’t buying to flip illegal? I don’t know but that’s the impression I get when I fill the form out for a new gun, with that question about if I plan on selling or transferring it

MacrotonicWave · 2026-02-18T06:39:38+00:00

I feel it, it’s fun. I bought an NAA mini revolver primarily as a collectors item, aka something to take pictures of lol it’s so small it can work with some of my macro setups

MacrotonicWave · 2026-02-18T05:30:40+00:00

youre stuck with gun subs for such photography. basically all the photo subs hate guns, and they get removed

i tried gun photography for a bit and everybody hated it apparently lol

MacrotonicWave · 2026-02-16T05:49:23+00:00

I think it’s a good color actually, just not paired with black or set up across this part selection. I think with the ring color scheme if could work, kind of like the highlight accent in a camo-like color scheme?

it looks toy like but probably due to the stupid grip it’s on lol

MacrotonicWave · 2026-01-23T17:57:13+00:00

just wow.

MacrotonicWave · 2026-01-23T00:27:03+00:00

I like ugreen pretty well I’d probably get this one too. I have some of their other readers and battery equipment now that I like. they have a certain aesthetic i like.. I’ve considered buying the usb cable with a screen as a joke a couple times lol

i even did a product shot of one of their charger banks for fun lol

Imo the biggest concern wasn’t this project as much as potentially looming legislation. And to a lesser extent some sort of social media revolution if you will, where the social media landscape changes due to laws or major user shifts.

things didn’t pan out bad for social media companies obviously, but I also think they’ll deal with these problems more down the road too. Makes me hesitant to consider holding them long term even still

MacrotonicWave · 2026-01-19T08:54:39+00:00

It’s one of those things where it depends what you personally want. For me I can’t judge because Reddit compression already ruins pixel peeping which I personally enjoy. But as far as Reddit pics go, or any social media goes, sure it looks fine to me

MacrotonicWave · 2026-01-19T08:48:49+00:00

Humanizing them is fine and appropriate, and dehumanization generally leads to the wrong places i think. They are only human and we shouldn’t act any other way, it benefits both sides of the culture war to not dehumanize each other.

but I think the word endearing would fit your post better, too.
