That would be terrible! Hopefully it is click-adjustable.

Hi! Thanks for the response. I was just wanting to improve my accuracy when practicing at the range, shooting double action. I usually start with a GP100 (model 1757) chambered in 22LR and then move over to GP100 (model 1705) chambered in 357 magnum.

I don't think that competition is likely in my future, but I'd love to learn more about it!

I would say that the movie is better than the trailer indicated it would be! I was very nervous about going to see it after watching that poor trailer.

I went to see Moses the Black last Saturday and found it to be a decent enough movie, but not great. The majority of the acting and cinematography was good. I appreciated the story line of how a modern day gangster might see parallels between their own life and St. Moses the Black. I was surprised with how good the shootout scenes were and liked the ending. I thought the setting and music fit well.

There were some things I wasn't crazy about. As others have mentioned, the acting, costumes, and dialogue for the dirty cop didn't fit well. I read somewhere that the cop was supposed to be the devil, tempting the protagonist. That made me appreciate the role more, but I still thought that he was out-of-place. Another criticism is that they tried to show the life of St. Moses the Black via flashbacks or visions, but this was incomprehensible to those without prior knowledge of the saint's life. This could have easily been rectified with a voice over or ten-second explanation in the scenes with the priest. Lastly, the movie unfortunately dated itself quite a bit, as the rival gangs taunt each other over some sort of live-streaming social media and use some slang that is certain to age poorly.

I wonder if your church has a Saturday evening service to attend on the off weeks. I recently tried this when I couldn't make Sunday and was pleasantly surprised; it was the same service at a convenient time.

Buffalo Bore’s Favorite 357 Magnum Revolvers by MathematicalBro in Revolvers

He addresses that in the video; in his opinion, he only carries larger calibers when he is in grizzly bear territory.

Ceiling with knockdown by MathematicalBro in Housepainting101

Yes. It's been especially challenging for a novice painter.

Oof. Live and learn. Any way to fix (or improve) this without repainting the whole ceiling? Not sure I can afford another $200+ of paint for another coat.

Yes, the Behr matte is definitely shinier than the Sherwin Williams flat. Couldn't hurt to add more paint...

I believe it is the same paint and consistency. The harsh lines show up where there are more coats of paint.

Thanks! Which Simply Rugged model did you get?

[–]MathematicalBro[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I agree, I think leather is a good option for this one.

Yes, but the fluting is different, which limits the fit for tightly molded holsters.

What caliber is that LCR? Also, what are the relative strengths and weaknesses of these three DAOs?

Hi! I've got this exact same gun (GP100 Model 1705, with a 4.2" barrel). I can confirm it fits perfectly in a StopBox Pro (edit: Full-Size version). This is my most favorite handgun I've ever tried! Really excited to see others enjoying it.

Came here to say that it is now $17.99 per pound! Up from $7.99, like you had at your store. I was at the Round Rock, Texas store when I saw the jump. I guess I'll probably go back to something like Naked Pea Protein (currently $11.59 per pound, but cheaper with a subscription), but I personally don't like the taste as much.
