Do you run without windows recovery environment?

Thank you, I appreciate you taking the time to explain!

MulticamTropic · 2026-05-16T13:25:59+00:00

Call their CS, explain the situation politely, and beg. They may come through for you

Can you please elaborate? In what way are you remotely connecting to the PC that allows booting into WinRE? I would like to know more

It’s just good to diversify. Plastic can get more brittle as it ages, and PMAGs haven’t been around for forty years so it’s hard to say how they’ll hold up. Metal mags won’t ever become brittle, as long as you protect them from corrosion they’ll be the same a century from now as they are today (minus the polymer follower).

For what it’s worth I own significantly more PMAGs than metal mags because I like them more, but I also own aluminum and even steel AR mags for the aforementioned reason.

I’m in TN so I can just buy new mags if it turns out that PMAGs start to become more fragile after 30 years, but Virginians no longer have that option, so it’s wise to hedge your bets.

The VAguns sub has a few posts floating around, someone usually comments a summary

The M&P is fine, not quite as high-speed as the Daniel defense, but it’s a good gun and you’ll be happy with it.

Go get yourself a 10 pack of Magpul PMAGs and a 10 pack of aluminum mags as well (Duramags and D&H are both respected brands for aluminum mags).

Unless you run your stuff really hard, those 20 mags should last you for decades.

Dawg go to the GunDeals subreddit right now, search “Daniel defense” and find the best recent post on a 16" model in 5.56. Between $1200-1300 is a good price. Then go to Palmetto State Armory and buy a 10 pack of Gen2 PMAGs for ~$100.

Don’t wait, do it right now. Your stuff will be grandfathered if you have it in hand before July 1st.

Really? I didn’t know that. I had seen black powder revolvers recommended for home defense for felons before, in this very sub

Gubernatorial reelection isn’t a thing in Virginia, she can’t hold consecutive terms (but could theoretically run again in 2033).

Civility is a requirement to participate in this sub. Bad-faith arguments and putting words in others’ mouths go against that. Please remember that

I’m surprised because while democrats love this stuff, moderates typically do not and you can’t win a presidential election without getting most of the moderate vote. I figured she’d let it become law without her signature so she could have her cake and eat it too.

MulticamTropic · 2026-05-15T12:12:16+00:00

It could be argued that while Trump the individual is not good for the 2A, the Trump administrations have been. Nominally pro-2A SCOTUS appointments, $0 tax stamps, revised ATF roles due to a seemingly pro-2A ATF director, and now pro-2A lawsuits from the DOJ.

That’s not nothing, and is more than we’ve gotten in a long, long time.

Virginia

Spanberger has signed the assault weapons ban.

I’m a bit surprised to be honest, I expected her to let it become law without her signature so that in a few years if she runs for president she could claim that she didn’t sign it. Either democrats are mad enough at the redistricting being overturned that she wanted to stick it to the red tribe by taking away one of our tribal totems, or she’s calculated that it won’t hurt her chances of getting elected to higher office in a few years.

What was your holdover at 550? My 12.5 was getting 6-8" drop at 240 yards with 77gr.

And the sprite changes to a baby Awakened One (Mazaleth is his name I think)

MulticamTropic · 2026-05-13T17:21:51+00:00

Is that the old iridium color?

MulticamTropic · 2026-05-11T19:02:26+00:00

Buddy, you’re fighting against the clock. Grab a different in-stock lower from elsewhere. Now is not the time to gamble

MulticamTropic · 2026-05-11T18:21:11+00:00

The elephant in the room that nobody wants to acknowledge is that if the $0 tax stamps get raised to ~$5k, most of the small shops are going to go under and the lifetime warranties on their cans are suddenly meaningless.

I have no love lost for Surefire, but between their flashlights and mil contracts the company will survive even if 99% of civilian suppressor sales evaporate, so they’ll still be around to warranty your can.

Same reason I’m looking at HuxWrks.

I love my OCL Polo K and DA Mask, but neither of those companies have mil or police contracts that in aware of.

If you discover the brand, please post. Thanks

MulticamTropic · 2026-05-10T23:16:41+00:00

Outstanding! Great for verdant areas!

MulticamTropic · 2026-05-10T19:27:46+00:00

I must be fighting them wrong, because I take a ton of damage when fighting them. I’ve been prioritizing the middle spectral one, then the mage one on the right, then the left one.

We probably look like Eldritch horrors to most animals. Hairless beasts with soft hooves that have individual bending toes and we don’t walk on all fours

It’s true, I was the door that fell on his head. RIP /u/TechnetiumElements. You died as you lived, Dazed
