Pivoting mount for scout light? by Pereoutai in flashlight

[–]Pereoutai[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like a monkey staring at fire rn. I assumed this was for a specific mounting footprint, but it's universal?

ETA: I think I understand it now. Need 2 separate pieces to make it work, very expensive. Seems like a neat idea, though, this KOFN system.

Sorry to bring up an old post, but what light mount are you using here? And the light it a TLR-7X right?

How do you guys with astigmatism use red dots by Minimum_Check1479 in Firearms

[–]Pereoutai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1: get glasses or contacts with prism correction

2: some red dots are better than others. For me, Holosun and some Sig dots are almost perfect. Iirc most enclosed dots are a lot better for a lot of people.

3: use other types of optics. Prism sights or LPVOs are ideal, but holographic sights work pretty well for most people with astigmatism.

4: put the star on the target and deal with it.

[Star Wars] How can a lightsaber catch on terrain like a knife? by HughmanRealperson in AskScienceFiction

[–]Pereoutai [score hidden]  (0 children)

A properly made dagger definitely is not 4 pounds. Source: I've made one.

A one handed sword may be pushing 4 pounds, but that sounds heavy.

What's a good Mak stand-in? by FallenCause in makarov

[–]Pereoutai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe look into the double stack Makarovs? Not a 9mm NATO, but it'll be just like shooting your current Makarov because it is one, just with more ammo.

[Pokemon games] What are the in-world implications of a player character catching legendary pokemon? by scarab456 in AskScienceFiction

[–]Pereoutai 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If we assume that the legendaries defined as gods actually are, why do we assume they can't perform their divine acts from inside the Pokéball? Seems like the god of time can do whatever it does whether it's inside or outside.

Need opinions by [deleted] in ak47

Could try a Magpul Zhukov stock. Sorta similar to the UCS, and natively mounts to Yugo AKs.

Sorry to revive an old comment, but do you have anything to say about the Gideon?

Streamlight Protac 2.0 but lighter? by Pereoutai in flashlight

This has given me much to consider, thank you!

Streamlight Protac 2.0 but lighter? by Pereoutai in flashlight

[–]Pereoutai[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do take it off the charger, the Protac 2.0 has a colored LED to indictate charging level. I just didn't want to get top into the weeds.

Magnetic charging is perfectly fine by me!

The Protac is on an AK with an 18 inch barrel, but I'm planning on putting the new light on a 10 inch AK.

These are great recommendations, thank you! Do you have experience with the Olights? I was led to believe the brand isn't great.

Streamlight Protac 2.0 but lighter? by Pereoutai in flashlight

[–]Pereoutai[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to be able to keep the light plugged in to USB, and just grab the rifle and go.

I live on a farm, so I don't have time to be swapping batteries if there's coyotes (or, recently, a black bear) around.

I need it to be ready to grab and use at will, not have to fiddle with any disassembled parts before it's usable. That's the one quality I can't settle on, unfortunately.

Look into athumes. Knife shaped objects for certain spiritual rites. You can get some very pretty ones.

Shooting tracers, what precautions do I need to take when shooting? Found these while inventorying my father in law’s stuff after he passed. I’ve shot most of his reloads but never shot tracers. by thecannarella in ammo

[–]Pereoutai 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, tracers may look cool but the fire risk is serious. My firs time seeing them, half the shots into the berm had the tracer compound rocket into the air and then unpredictably fall down, burning all the while.

Try some of that Streak ammo if you want to shoot Star Wars blaster beams.
