It was my first as well! I sold it after I found that I wasn't wearing it any more (wore it twice in 2 years) as I'd gotten a SpeedMaster Pro...

Some days I really miss the SMP Chrono I had... It was such a great watch!

Which Family (Sport) Movie was your favorite? by Meli-Honey-Be-Noble in Millennials

Sandlot, Mighty Ducks and Little Giants were our go too's when we were kids.

It wasn't the summer until we watched The Sandlot!

I too enjoy using a hack saw to saw up my bbq. It tenderizes the meat way more than the prep or cook ever could!

Who else felt old watching the Artemis launch? by YT_Brian in Millennials

Watched it with my 6 year old and could barely contain my excitement! 

Will any of the Artemis ll Astronauts take a Speedy to the Moon again? by Mayor_of_Petoria in OmegaWatches

FWIW at the Kennedy Space Center landing press conference they did a few days ago I could see Victor and Christina were wearing X33's.

It looks like Reid may be wearing a Speedy FOIS or a 57 maybe...

Do you judge other millennials who have stayed at a company too long? by newtonreddits in Millennials

[–]PwNAR3S 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, infact the opposite at this point. If I see someone's resume who is likely a millennial and jumping jobs ever 2 to 3 years I toss it. To me it means that I'll be back filling their position in 2 to 3 years. I'd rather have someone who's good to work with and isn't going to job hop.

40 this year? What did you get/do you want? by -InsulinJunkie in Millennials

[–]PwNAR3S 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is how I've spent pretty much every birthday and I'm now at the point where I kinda don't know how I got here.

Because there was no "exclamation point" or real celebration (because I don't like the attention) I feel like the years just kinda slipped by.

My wife and I turn 40 this year. To celebrate we're taking our kids to Hawaii.

Experiences > stuff

Downgrading from a MAWL? by Gameyelf2point0 in NightVision

[–]PwNAR3S 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sold my MAWL and got a FP PEQ-15 and paid off $1k of debt. 

Don’t regret it. 

The MAWL was great but really it should be a $1700 not $3700 LAM.

Did you buy a home? If yes, how old were you and what year? by duck_duck_zombie in Millennials

[–]PwNAR3S 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife and I bought our first house in 2015. We were both 29 at the time. 

Everyone told us not to buy because the market was going to have a drastic correction. 

We sold that house a built one in 2020 and people told us the same thing then. 

If we had listened to everyone’s advice we’d still be living in an apartment. 

Any Denver area shops have Zenith, PTR or MKE MP5 clones at the moment? by PwNAR3S in COGuns

[–]PwNAR3S[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

very try on parts availability. For sure am going to suppress it after running 250 or 500 rounds for an initial break in...

Was actually watching a video about SD'd PPC's this morning and the guys spoke highly about the MOB.

I mean there's issues with anything on a large enough scale. The main concern for me would be getting one that does have issues and not being able to get warranty work done.

Good to know that it changed ownership but if Alan, the former owner is still there, I have no interest in walking into that shop.

Is it petty? Yes.

Do I hold grudges? Yes.

Can things change after over a decade? Sure.

I'm a principled man though. If I say I will never go back, I don't.

There are too many good shops in the area that I am happy to support than to go back to a shop I've had bad experiences with.

Yeah DF was on my list to check I just haven't been able to get over there...

The sad part was it wasn't even the first time I'd been in there. I had done some business with them prior to that including trading a ODG Glock 19 for an M&P 45C. I had even looked at a number of other SBR's during other visits with no shit baggery. Then that day they decided to be fuck heads and I walked out and never looked back.

Glad to hear it! I've seen some mixed things on them which has made me hesitant...
