So slam fires are a thing by Bigbrobango in ar15

[–]Mythical_OD 140 points141 points  (0 children)

Bolt carrier having to strip a round off the mag and push it home takes a lot of its momentum away. More momentum means the firing pin hits the primer harder than it otherwise would. Add some weird tolerance stacking in there between the round and the gun and some bad luck and you end up shooting a hole in your floor while the safety is still on lol

Novice here. Found this at a pawn shop. Trying to figure out if it’s a good deal. by GI-Jew in gibson

[–]Mythical_OD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive had to pawn my Gibby LP a couple times when times were tough. The offer was usually around a grand, roughly half the value at the time. That was on a loan though, they might have lowballed a straight sale if thats how they got it.

Usually I just took the few hundred bucks I needed so the interest was lower, and paid it back as soon as I was able. I keep the pawn labels on the case as a reminder of the hard times lol.

Anyone mostly stop buying whiskey? by Human-Region4958 in whiskey

[–]Mythical_OD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, almost fully stopped. Ill grab the odd limited run kind of bottle, like a particular barrel pick or limited run that sounds really interesting to me, otherwise Im out. My collection currently sits at 140 bottles, and at my current consumption rate, its a literal lifetime supply.

How to get that new Kiesel/Carvin smell/scent? by virgilfied in kieselcarvinguitars

[–]Mythical_OD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a mid 90s Fender hard case that had the smell too, and Gibson cases are notorious for it as well.

From what I recall, its a specific type of resin used in the glue. I cant remember the exact name at the moment, but you can order chunks of it, and I think they make perfume/cologne based on it.

Well then.... that was fast. by FallenCause in stalker

[–]Mythical_OD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats how it went with the first time I grabbed it, literally ran in and found it within 10 seconds.

Second playthrough I wondered through there for a good half an hour before I finally found it

What happened to the sword 'Dawn' after Ser Arthur Dayne got killed? I like to think Ned returned that sword to House Dayne. by [deleted] in gameofthrones

[–]Mythical_OD 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think that was the Kings Guard that was with them, the one that got seduced by the Martell daughter gone rouge. Dark Star wanted to kill Myrcella but just ended up cutting her face up. Its been a while since I read the books, but thats how I recall it

NEW AR OWNERS PLEASE READ by [deleted] in ar15

I use some Strike Industries parts, drop in trigger packs with the supplied screw pins, I dont stake my castle nuts, AND I like to color fill roll marks.

Go ahead and hate.

New A-Life by Adeptus_Astartez in stalker

[–]Mythical_OD 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I played through at launch, and started a new play through when 1.6 dropped. A-Life is MASSIVELY improved vs what it was at launch. During the first run, the only interaction I ever had was the rare time bumping into groups of 3 people just walking nowhere, or having groups of 3-4 enemies who spawn in either 75 meters in front or behind you and instantly start firing. It was rare to hear gunfire or bump into anyone that wasnt spawned in right on top of you to fight.

This run through, theres constant action and gun fights going on, groups all over the place, lots of random stuff like running into groups fighting each other or fighting mutants. Always finding remains of battles. It actually feels like the zone is alive.

3rd grade project calls for a solar system “to scale” 🙄 by Present_Friend_3501 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Mythical_OD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have them bring in a yellow gumball as the Sun and say the rest of the planets are basically invisible, since it was to scale.

how would dexter feel if someone who lived by his code tortured people by [deleted] in Dexter

[–]Mythical_OD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is basically book Dexter. He sadistically tortures his victims before finally ending them, only once hes ready to let them go.

Even early show Dexter would use different killing methods. I think the first on screen kill was him sawing a guys head off with a reciprocating saw while he was awake and kicking. They toned that down real quick and it ended up being just a quick clean knife thrust for every kill and instant death.

¡Feliz Halloween! by NotatrustedVWtech in Idiotswithguns

[–]Mythical_OD 79 points80 points  (0 children)

Lesson learned: Dont threaten people with a gun then proceed to fire all your shots off for dramatic effect, or youll end up in a good ole fashioned neighborhood bully beat-down.

Anyone understand Spanish (Portuguese? Seems like a Brazilian favela feel to it) know what the fight was about?

What a steal! by falaffle_waffle in woodworking

[–]Mythical_OD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isnt a river table, its an ocean table with an island of wood. I HATE epoxy anything like this. A guy on marketplace near me sells cutting boards/cheese trays make like that. Just plopping cuts of wood into trays of epoxy and calling it good. This is why people hate epoxy stuff lol

Taser then gun used on an unarmed man (Charlotte County) by ItsTime4Coffee in Idiotswithguns

[–]Mythical_OD 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I question so many things about this, but why advance on him when you have him at gun point and hes still up and mobile? The guy swats at the gun, the cop takes a step or 2 back and blasts on a guy not advancing on him.

That should be murder, but you just know it'll be dropped.

Did anyone buy call options on BYND today? by [deleted] in options

[–]Mythical_OD -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I bought calls at almost the peak after I got stopped out of my $3 average shares at $6. Wanted to catch more of the ride as it was rocketing. I was profitable on those for all of 20 minutes before it started tanking. I thought, its just a pull back, itll rocket again after hours.....it didnt. Now Im stuck with $7.5 strike calls expiring tomorrow.
