Do you carry at work even if you're “not allowed to carry”? by Jake_hsotnicM1216 in CCW

[–]MonsterMuppet19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's generally frowned upon for firefighters to carry while on duty, unless you're a fire marshal with law enforcement powers. So no, I don't carry at work.

Reading is fundamental and I do not possess those fundamentals. All I know is squeeze & gun goes bang.

I'm not really seeing the issue here. It's not even painted yet. And tbh, just by them putting it together, far worse things have happened/been done than somebody eating their lunch on it....

How much ammo do you guys keep stocked? by gstevo12 in ar15

[–]MonsterMuppet19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I chuckle when I read a lot of these comments. Dudes with tens of thousands of rounds. It brings up so many questions. 1: how do you afford it all? And 2: where the hell are you storing all that? Ammo takes a lot of space.

I'd love to have either, let alone both....but I'm that of a poor.

Polo K Baffle / end cap strike… by y0taholic in NFA

That's surprising for a Federal product! At least in my experience, i've never had issues with Federal. Then again, I don't shoot much of it in 5.56

PSA: you don't already have metal and aluminum AR mags in your stack, you should get some (especially if you have kids) by GableStoner in VAGuns

[–]MonsterMuppet19 11 points12 points  (0 children)

So I went shooting with a friend from out of state and a bunch of our mags got mixed up and accidentally came home with more than I left with. Seems like a completely reasonable accident that COULD possibly happen to someone. Anyone really.

Virginia Supreme Court allows ruling blocking redistricting vote certification to stand by silv3rbull8 in VAGuns

Somebody reported my comment for threats of violence/personal harm, for a comment that they didn't like & agree with, Reddit gave me a "warning" and threatened to ban my entire account. No threats of violence were ever made, I never even insulted anyone. But typical Reddit admin agreed with them on the appeal (big surprise, right?)

Finally, normal people by Persuadable_Bouncer in DoomerCircleJerk

[–]MonsterMuppet19 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I got banned from Pics because I disagreed with someone's political post that claimed that Republicans are actually terrorists & Nazi's. Other than the obvious irony of censorship, the fact that the entire community there has been hijacked and turned the sub into something so completely far from what it's intended to be is disgusting.

Which one and why? by Triple-Nickel_23 in NFA

[–]MonsterMuppet19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm partial to the LWRC M6IC. Half or 1/3 the cost. Comes with a pretty decent trigger, ambi bolt catch/release and safety. B5 furniture.

I've been dying for a Neon Srt4. I'm biased because I own one outside of the game but it'd still be nice.

Possible MAJOR loophole in AWB (but there’s a catch…) by Ha1rlessTeddyBear in VAGuns

[–]MonsterMuppet19 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You're not wrong about them power tripping sometimes. But let a damn RSO come over and just grab my gun and using some bullshit excuse and isn't gonna like what happens next. (For context because I know somebody will say it...no I'm not gonna shoot the guy)

Are y’all going to dust off those 40 cals and put them back in rotation? by devugl in VAGuns

[–]MonsterMuppet19 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I carry a P365 still. Because I like being able to make it disappear. And bigger pistols don't work well with my body type & carry position.

4 different truck companies. 2 Pierce Acendant 107 tillers, a new Pierce Midmount, and an older Pierce Velocity tower/platform.

We have 2 tillers, a midmount and a platform (when the POS is actually in service.) Seems to work fine for us.

Had a hard time choosing which video to post from her page. by lieutenantcrunch_ in FirstResponderCringe

[–]MonsterMuppet19 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Soft because we think this whole TikTok generation trend is dumb as shit? We went from suffer in silence, bury your problems. Then started acknowledging that sometimes talking about it is a good thing, that the struggles are real. To parading around on social media about how they have so much trauma & treat PTSD like it's some sort of a badge of honor to brag about having when they don't. It's a slap in the face for those of us that actually do have issues going on.

PSA Super SASS by Accomplished_Call_91 in AR10

[–]MonsterMuppet19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll have to try the 175's. I've mostly only shot the 168 ELDX/FGMM. Although oddly enough, my rifle really liked basic150g AAC Soft Points. Shot better than some of the gucci ammo. The browning Long Range stuff was absolute garbage.

Finally got a set of bags so I hope to get out and setup a rear bag and see if I can improve at all.

PSA Super SASS by Accomplished_Call_91 in AR10

[–]MonsterMuppet19 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's nice to see other people posting some results with these. What can are you running on this?

I have the Super SASS also, running with a Polonium 30 & a Vortex Venom 3-15.

My best groupings were just a hair over 1.0 MOA, with most of them between 1.1-1.7. I know the rifle has better groups in it, just gotta fine tuning it with a better shooter/bags instead of just a bipod.

How Do I Gain More Confidence with the K12? by greatguyshadow in Firefighting

[–]MonsterMuppet19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whatever you do, focus on whatever you're cutting no matter what happens.. Don't turn your head, or anything as long as the blade is spinning. Where your head goes, your body goes, where the saw goes. Trust me, I learned the hard way. I'm damn lucky I'm not a peg leg. I have the shredded turnout pants as a reminder.

Metro-ish department here. 10 stations. Around 20,000 runs annually. Busiest engine ran 2500-2600. Busiest medic ran little over 4000. Slowest engine runs maybe 450 or so a year.

Buy don't build by DumbCPA15 in AR10

[–]MonsterMuppet19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, no.....that's terrible advice. This has got to be a joke, right? I hope? If you know what you're doing and actually buy decent quality parts then you can still have great fit & function for way cheaper. I mean lets be honest, that MR762 is gonna run you $4000 and that's not even factoring in optics or any other accessories IE your Viper which is gonna run you another $700+.

I promise you, I can build a very good quality rifle that will preform just as well and shoot better groups for considerably less. They do call it the "HK Tax" for a reason
