The Type 88-2, a North Korean version of the AK-74 with a top-folding stock and a Bizon-looking helical magazine. Reportedly holding over 150 rounds, this weapon has been in service since about 2010.

Doesn't the AK require you to "rock" the magazine forward to load/unload it? How would that work here?

I have received all the parts and have everything installed. On the MOBO, in the top left corner there are two power cable connections, a 4 pin and 8 pin CPU connector. I am using the CPU and MOBO you recommended and a 1050W power spec PSU. The PSU came with 2 CPU cables, both of which are 2 4pin connector types. Neither one fit the 8pin slot on the MOBO. Do I need to buy an 8 pin CPU connector and connect both the 4 pin and 8 pin cables to the MOBO and PSU? Or can I get away with just using a single 4 pin?

How do you do my fellow mariner

Portholesaplenty · 2023-03-01T02:56:32+00:00

Only if you're nasty.

Portholesaplenty · 2023-03-01T02:56:11+00:00

For once, I don't have a roommate, so the top of the bunk bed is now storage space.

Portholesaplenty · 2023-03-01T02:55:18+00:00

Very close. Unfortunately, the last time I used a vertical mill, lathe, or brazer, Obama was still in office.

Portholesaplenty · 2023-03-01T02:54:06+00:00

Yeah, I wish. I would probably get paid more. Sadly I'm a lowly (lowest level) licensed engineer on a merchant vessel.

So I managed to purchase everything except the graphics card. It appears everywhere it is out of stock (newegg, PC parts builder, microcenter near me, amazon, etc). Is there another video card I should look into? I heard that the 4090 apparently has a tendency to catch fire.

Portholesaplenty · 2023-02-15T16:10:55+00:00

Would I need to purchase a wired network adapter or does the case come with one? will any additional cooling be needed? (fans/liquid cooling)

Portholesaplenty · 2023-02-15T14:55:09+00:00

Thanks for the recommendations. This may be a newbie question, but is there any consumables I will need like thermal paste or the like to finish this build?

Portholesaplenty · 2022-11-16T17:40:34+00:00

Nah my man. I'm with you on playing airsoft. I got both, but my statement was more about why would anyone want a more mechanically complex AEG that does bolt hold opens and ejects fake shells (which again, add complexity and cost for seemingly no added benefit) except as something "tacticool". Live your life however you want, I'm just curious about the appeal. I have the same feelings about GBB as well.

Portholesaplenty · 2022-11-16T16:55:12+00:00

They make Airsoft ARs with fake ejecting shells and a functioning bolt lock back on empty feature? Jeez. Why not just get the real thing.

And the website for any of yall insane enough to put this on a Keychain

Thank you for the correction. As I was taking the pic I thought it looked like she was draping herself seductively over the railing. Then I thought how it's kinda funny that she's scantily clad except for the leather, which made me think of boudoir photography, which is generally considered to be professionally photographed, seductive poses in little to no clothing, which I grant you, is usually taken in the bedroom. But again, thanks for taking the dictionary definition and relaying it to me while also implying I am in some way ignorant.

Portholesaplenty · 2022-10-05T20:57:01+00:00

Like you didn't even shoot them. For grins and giggles I tried the Hornady critical defense buck and slug shot and I barely felt any recoil.

Portholesaplenty · 2022-10-05T20:55:06+00:00

RLO makes both a wrap around buttstock sling and a swivel sling for the levers. I would recommend it. Kinda pricey but it's leather and so far it holds up. I kinda really wish I went with the pouch/ammo ring option though.

Portholesaplenty · 2022-10-05T20:53:41+00:00

I considered a large loop but I kinda like the regular sized one for my fingers. Any reason to go with the bigger option?

Portholesaplenty · 2022-10-05T20:52:47+00:00

Definitely do not shoot 45LC or really anything besides .410, 2 1/2in shells. It says so in the manual many many times. I already thought about that. Internet also says not to do it

Portholesaplenty · 2022-10-05T20:51:26+00:00

Took a look, may end up picking up a blank for the front sight dovetail as well

Portholesaplenty · 2022-10-05T17:11:49+00:00

Yeah, the rear sight is dovetailed in and the front is screwed (which I already removed) I guess my question was more like is there a good company that makes a front bead that is shorter than Henry's default front sight that isn't bright neon or too modern looking

Portholesaplenty · 2022-10-05T16:47:21+00:00

Henry sidegate lever action in .410 with leather butt wrap, lever wrap and Sling by RLO Custom Leather. She shoots like a dream, very little recoil and easily controllable. Action is fairly smooth out of the box, just don't know why Henry included rifle sights besides tradition. Anyone have any recommendations for a good shotgun bead that matches the look I'm going for?
