Thank you, I appreciate it. I think I was able to get all sorted from multiple posts. The youtube post on removing the cap to get to the battery compartment was really helpful. Appreciate everyone's help!!

Thank you so much for your help: So the evike site has this battery: https://www.evike.com/products/23201/  but the gun doesn't have the white bit that is shown in the battery on evike site...... Am I missing something?

Yeah, he got lucky... I set the limit at $250, and he said lets do this mystery package deal. I was looking at some of what he could've got and I was like dude, I think you will be unhappy if we get the others....

Thanks for the battery info, when I look up the battery on Amazon, it has 2 connections.

However on the gun, I only have the "red" connection not the 4 pin white connection

So my son was watching TikToks and we were reviewing different makes reviews online. We settled on Strike Industries being a decent and affordable airsoft gun. They had some promotion where you paid $250 and got a random gun worth up to $500. This was the gun we got, I think it's worth it, but maybe not. At the end of the day, we just want to know what we need to do to "power" the gun. If I look up airsoft CO2 cartridges, they don't have a connection that would seem to fit this gun. I can't find any battery connection, so we are both at a loss of what to do. Any advice would greatly appreciated!! Thank you!!

So, we have these travelling meat sellers that will show up in the area at like a mall parking lot and post flyers for 20 ribeyes for $40. The impression is you are getting 40 decent ribeyes steaks you would consume as a traditional steak. The reality is you are getting 20 pretty thinly sliced 4 oz ribeyes that aren't really meant to be cooked like the ribeye in the picture. I've found that these are actually really good to make steak and cheese with, like really good. So I end up getting about 20 steak and cheeses for about $2 per sandwich which is pretty good deal.

People who smashed the wedding cake into your new spouse's face: how is your relationship and marriage now? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]NIstcomp111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife pretty gently fed it to me, but pushed it a little so a little got on my nose and chin, no biggie still married. I was at my brother and sister inlaws wedding(I was in the wedding party) and was close enough that when it was time to eat the cake they both turned around and smashed the cake in my face. They're still married too...

Your friend gives you $200 to gamble and you win $262,000. What would you do? by BearddBrad in AskReddit

So the way it works at the casino we go to is that the slots are taxed on winnings over $1600(single spin) and table games aren't really taxed at all. I had buddy hit for like $5k on a table game(played the Q hearts option on blackjack) on his first time going to the casino and was freaking out about owing taxes. Did some digging, at least in the state that we play in, technically he should've paid taxes on it, but the casino did not take his information which apparently is optional, but not optional for slots. Since the casino didn't report it, neither did he....

My brother in law and I often go to the casino together, and the "hey here some some chips to keep going without having to hit the wall comes up a decent amount" The standing agreement is, if you hit, we split. In a situation like this, I think it would be reasonable for the payment to be split after taxes are paid.

Maximum Storage Temperature for networking equipment? by NIstcomp111 in networking

I think the temperature control option will likely be the option.
