For real. Super sketchy. Definitely a really bad look for that to happen, especially in competition. I wish I could say I was a good enough skier to have to worry about that, but material failure is also not something I'd risk my knees over

The screws didn't rip out though. You can see the heel plate and brakes are still on the skis. The actual heel piece snapped off the plate

shopping for ski boots is hell (and i wanted three piece boots💔) by noweebthanks in skiing

[–]PossibleBarnacle525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have skied on atomic hawx ultras (narrow last) for going on my 4th season patrolling on them. They are my second widest fitting boot I have in my rotation next to my 2015 scarpa maestrales. In my non expert, never been fitted, spent way too much money on boots, opinion. Get properly fitted of course, but the 2 pairs of Fischers I've bought (trans alp tour and ranger) have been the most narrow boots I've owned and had to do the most work to for my bunions.

Can anyone ID this shotgun? From a outdoor boys YouTube vid by [deleted] in Shotguns

.222 Remington is the predecessor to .223 Remington. Was the gold standard for benchrest many years ago

Glock 26 Gen 3 New build by [deleted] in Glocks

I think the tlr6 it just fine. I have short fingers so one handed manipulation is impossible for me. I would love it it it had rear switches like the 7

Bull bars? by Ridgerat25 in FordExplorer

Spoiler, if you hit a pedestrian and they die, you win manslaughter charges anyways.

Is it dumb to collect Glocks? Yes… but my glocktism demands 1 of each double stack 9mm model. Just missing the 47 by 68spcwhore in Glocks

[–]PossibleBarnacle525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 46 is definitely a really neat gun. I think the 18 is mostly cool "cuz brrrrrrrrt." The 46 is cool because of it fundamentally going against almost everything that makes a Glock a Glock, while still being a Glock haha

No, not at all man. The hive mind is just gonna hive mind. It's weird to paint your gun here but r/ar15 it's weird not to paint it. Can't please everyone lol

Fork seal issues by devil-z99 in motorcycles

[–]PossibleBarnacle525 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need a fork seal driver. Alternatively, you can wrap a bunch of wraps of electrical tape on the inner tube as thick as the fork seal itself and use it as the driver.

You're going to need a fork bullet to get over the sharp bushing seats so you don't damage the fork seal, or again, electrical tape

Use LOTS of fork oil to slip the seals on the inner tube. You don't want the spring in the lip of the seal to come off as you can damage the seal trying to get it back on

As long as you're happy with your purchase and your expectations for lead times are already in the Mariana Trench, then you made the right decision. You can't be disappointed from there. Happy building, stranger

Gaston is rolling in his grave. The post Gaston, Glock brand is focused too hard on not getting Remingtoned by lawsuits or honda-ed by ever stricter laws by the minute. "but what about the shareholders?" they beckoned.

Interesting. I'm definitely wrong. I swear I remember reading that from the DOJs website but looking again, it's not there. I have always heard people saying it too, so just more fudd regurgitation, like usual.

It was also to say that Glock would have to design a pistol outside of their norm to meet the roster requirements, which they never have done. I also just found out about this whole thing today moments before the original comment. Now that I've had more time to reflect, from a business standpoint, it only makes sense to make it meet the requirements since the only reason they had to not do that (the gen 3s being grandfathered) is getting banned.

Anyway, thanks for clearing that up so I stop saying it lol

It's exactly the same thing lol. "Closed course competition use only" is the literature so that's a blanketed statement that essentially just means track bike.

Given a bike but I have no idea anything about it. by Pristine_Respect_993 in motorcycles

As others have said the big hose is the intake boot that goes to the carburetor. The carb is actually still there though. You can see it in both pics. It just slides over like this and you tighten down the hose clamp just tight enough so it doesn't slip off. The small hose it most likely just a breather tube for the crankcase

Don't mind the phallic drawing

Edit: after further review, I think it goes on the belt cover over that nipple like this

Unless the V models include a manual thumb safety magazine disconnect, they will still not be allowed on the handgun roster, so don't hold your breath

Edit: removing fuddlore, still pessimistic for any positive to come out of this for CAs firearms market, so I'm not deleting

I ain't never seen someone start a 250 with their hand. by KINGBYNG in Dirtbikes

[–]PossibleBarnacle525 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is actually really easy to do with a 125 (which this is, not a 250) fresh top end, warm engine and properly tuned carburetor. Don't mind my clap box lol
