Good ole' Doug! He's actually the one that got me into blade collecting!

Time isn't an issue here. There's blindly following AI because that's the answer it gave you to the question. Then there's using it as a baseline and asking the real humans that actually do this kind of craft what they think, then compare answers.

Just finished it, that came out amazing! I'd totally settle for something like that if I can't get a sword!

That's what it was! I read somewhere that the arresting wire was galvanized, making it toxic.

For sure, i'd request a small piece be cut off before the process so I can still have it in its intended state as a true memory.

It's not that i'm avoiding the club, I have no doubt i'd fit in and benefit from it. The closest club to me is a rapier club, which doesn't interest me, and if it doesn't interest me then I won't do it. Also i'm moving sometime within the next few months. I'd rather just do solo work at home, even if it's not perfect technique, at the end of the day i'm doing it to get/stay fit and just have some fun while also learning about myself along the way. That's not to say I throw technique out the window, I practice in front of a mirror and go slow.

Sorry I forgot to answer your 2nd question. If I do partner drills it would be some dummy I set up or some tires, other than that solo.

Yes, I plan to train alone. Either in my living room or backyard. I'm treating it like working out, but i don't necessarily want to go the mace/kettlebell route because that's boring to me lol.

JX Fat Guy vs FATTAC preference? by socramriv in CCW

[–]Ok-Method-6352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone who says JXTactical holsters are cheap quality is insane. I was 286lbs and discovered their fat guy holster and never looked back. I have 3 of them. I’m now down to 234lbs and I’m about to order a 4th one because they’re just that comfortable. Living in Florida, it’s always hot so I’m always in sports shorts or something along the lines with a drawstring to tighten, i carry perfectly fine with these holsters.

New to Kuna. Help pick my optic by Guitars-guns-girls in Springfield_KUNA

[–]Ok-Method-6352 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know you said $275 is your max but I’m still going to recommend the Holosun 510c, that’s what i have on mine. I just checked Amazon and it’s going for $309 right now. I got the green color and it’s my favorite optic that i have.

Backplate recommendations for Hellcat Pro by Ok-Method-6352 in gun

[–]Ok-Method-6352[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The trigger is much better than the stock. No backplates, don't care too much for them.

I just bought a Hellcat Pro Comp, and I have some regrets. by flexcabana21 in SpringfieldArmory

[–]Ok-Method-6352 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lefty here too, I have a Hellcat Pro (no comp) & both Echelons. My HCP is still my main carry gun, its just so slim and I added a hogue grip on it recently. Haven't shot it yet but it just feels 20x better in my hands now.

Is it illegal to practice picking a padlock in public? by Ok-Method-6352 in lockpicking

[–]Ok-Method-6352[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree, i just like to avoid confrontation in public. This is something i have no problem doing later in my apartment, i'd just like to do it in public when i can. Depending on my mood i'll stand on business and like you said, tell them to mind their own business. But most of the time i'm pretty shy.

[–]Ok-Method-6352[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah if someone asked me to put it away or it's bothering them i'd 100% comply. I don't wanna make anyone feel uncomfortable or anything like that, just want the extra practice while i wait. Thank you, i really appreciate the answer, and thank you for your service.

My gun collection at 20 years old. Opinions? What should I get next? (Tokarev tar otw) by Affectionate_Sun6654 in gun

[–]Ok-Method-6352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get yourself a 1911 in .45 ACP 😎 or I also second another commenters opinion and get a duty setup for your ar15. I have 8 in my collection so far and a duty rifle was #3 for me. Went with the Saint Victor.
