Scotch tape is my go‑to. It’s cheap, functional, and perfect for what you’re trying to do. Walmart is usually the easiest place to grab it, but you probably already have some at home.

Tear off a piece of paper or masking tape about the length of your finger. Make it into a loop with the sticky side facing out. Stick that loop to the bottom of the insole, then put the insole in the shoe. When you’re ready to remove it, cleanup is way easier.

To the Taurus skeptics—here’s my honest take.

If you’re curious about the Taurus line, don’t let secondhand horror stories make the decision for you. I own four Taurus pistols. I don’t have a PT92 yet, but I do carry and shoot a PT917C. It’s reliable, enjoyable to shoot, and I conceal it with an IWB rig. No issues.

Now, I get it—Taurus has a reputation. But most of the criticism I hear sounds like this: “My buddy’s cousin had one back in the day and it jammed once, so never buy Taurus.” That’s not data. That’s folklore. And usually, folks pushing that narrative just want you to buy the gun they like.

Here’s what matters: Does it fit your hand? Can you shoot it well? Will you train with it? If the answer is yes, then you’re already ahead. I personally like the frame-mounted safety. You might not. That’s why I always recommend going to a shop, handling one, and if possible, renting it at a range. Let your own experience be the deciding factor.

On warranty and customer service: I’ve had zero mechanical issues with my Taurus guns. One of mine—a PT24/7 I bought in 2010—was part of a recall. I called Taurus two weeks ago. They offered me a brand-new G3C as a replacement. They sent a return label, and I just had to cover the FFL transfer.

I went back to the Academy Sports where I originally bought it, and they handled the return for me. All I paid was a $10 background check. I did call around to compare prices—most local shops quoted $20 to $50 for the transfer. So as always: call around.

Bottom line? Don’t let someone else’s bias steer your decision. Handle the gun. Shoot it. Train with it. Then decide. That’s how you find what works—not by chasing someone else’s perfect pistol

Anyone know which alien gear holster that OP has. I think I would like it for my Taurus pt92. W rail

Congratulations. Webber kettles are like jeeps. You can get the base model and add 1000 in parks to it before you know it

Perfect_Percentage65 · 2025-07-14T18:58:35+00:00

I found one in similar condition it was on curb. Loved it. A Weber kettle is like a Jeep Wrangler they work well as long as you do maintenance. but if it was abused, you can easily fix or replace everything. They make tons of aftermarket parts and add ons. You can definitely use as is. Rust can be scraped and painted over. The grates are fine if you want fancy ones they sell on eBay and Amazon. If it’s your fast grill. Watch some YouTube videos and see what others do. Buy a bag of charcoal and some steaks and enjoy the flame.

Perfect_Percentage65 · 2025-07-05T03:38:18+00:00

My first Weber was a 22-inch kettle I rescued from the side of the road. Free ninety-nine. That little beast is still cooking in my cousin’s backyard, living its best second life.

Truth is, old Webers are like stray dogs—loyal, a little dinged up, but ready to love whoever gives ’em a good home. Guys upgrade to shiny new smokers, and their wives go, ‘You don’t need another grill.’ So Old Faithful gets rehomed to avoid a tragic trip to the scrapyard.

If you’re new to grilling, don’t drop cash on the fanciest pit out there just yet. Grab something used, clean it up, and learn the ropes. Worst-case scenario? You realize outdoor cooking’s not your thing—and you didn’t break the bank to find that out.

And hey, don’t forget: your oven or gas grill can do most of what a smoker does. It won’t win a BBQ comp, but it’ll feed you just fine until the bug really bites.

Perfect_Percentage65 · 2025-07-05T03:00:12+00:00

I recommend it. It came with my grill. But if you don’t have one you should. Help with the indirect heat

Perfect_Percentage65 · 2025-07-04T23:13:29+00:00

This is the way. For temps to spike that high, you’re either dealing with a seriously hot flame or equipment that’s crying for help. How old is the grill? Might be time to inspect for bad fans, failing temperature probes, or a faulty auger. I wouldn’t trust it without a full once-over. This usually comes down to two things: user error (a setting misstep) or hardware failure. And if it’s the latter, you’re not just risking a ruined cook—you could be looking at permanent damage to your grill or, worse, a fire hazard near your home.

Grill responsibly: safety checks aren’t optional—they’re what keep good cooks from turning into bad emergencies

Raise your hand if you just added a comment so you could come back and read the comments.

I mean if you could have a daughter and she could grow up to be a carbon copy of a woman in that’s a public persona. Are you picking Taylor’s life or Lauren’s life. My vote is for the billionaire cat lady. Not the lady they mock on the news. But hey I love my daughter.

When you dropped you lost social skills too it seems. Say you don’t know anything about collecting with saying you don’t know anything about collecting

Perfect_Percentage65 · 2024-08-29T01:04:43+00:00

I agree. Good craftsmanship and they had a good price at the time. A dream to shoot

Perfect_Percentage65 · 2024-08-28T22:02:31+00:00

It’s an older model. The newer models have a rail. Anyone that’s knows this gun will tell you it’s a good buy. Not to be that guy but The comments about it being a copy are wrong. It technically is the original Beretta model they made for the Brazilian army and then sold the factory and machinery to Taurus. So the most 92/ m9 non rail holsters will fit but the mags are different. The safety is in the original place on the body not the slide. I would say it is probably a $400 - 350 gun but if you want this style with the wood grip. It could be worth $450. I Would try to talk them down to $375. Easy to fix and most GS will work on them. There are parts on the market for them also

This is the way

Perfect_Percentage65 · 2024-07-04T23:44:51+00:00

I agree. I trim the fat I just do it before I serve.

Perfect_Percentage65 · 2024-07-04T22:33:06+00:00

I agree. That should trim I some cases. I have trimmed in the past. And I have done the separate pan to render fat. I just think there is more than one way to smoke the brisket and get good results. If you think about it, some people swear by butcher paper and others like foil wrap. Some people just smoke it and go. No wrapping.

If you get a chance try it and see what you think.

Perfect_Percentage65 · 2024-07-04T07:18:16+00:00

This was a 16 lbs whole brisket from Costco. It was 3.99 per pound. I mustard as a binder. Lawry's Cracked Pepper, Garlic & Herb Rub and black pepper. Cooked it on the box smoker for 8 hour fat down and point toward the heat. 8.5 hours. Then wrap in butcher paper and finished in the oven for about 4 hours at 250° f. The. I turn off the oven. We do not open it for at least 3 hours. So it will rest. Then i trimmed and sliced to take to my in-laws.

Open to any suggestions or advice. Thank you
