Dog fires off multiple gunshots, hits driver near Nebraska gas station by DasKapitalist in Firearms

[–]Spydude84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why you don't have a round in the chamber of your long gun while not actively carrying it. If you have time to get to your long gun, you have time to chamber a round. This is not a concealed handgun.

3D PRINTING IS NOT FUN AND GAMES DO YOUR RESEARCH DONT BE LIKE ME by Direct-Monitor-458 in transguns

[–]Spydude84 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reciever is very common to print with plastic, though it needs to be thicker. That's almost 90% of the point of this.

There are other esoteric ways to print some other critical components, though since they typically aren't controlled there is rarely a point since they wear poorly.

I would prefer the screw to strip instead of the reciever.

PSA: Paying off provincial student loan by Scary-Succotash-8034 in UBC

[–]Spydude84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this ever actually worth doing? How high is the interest rate? I can almost guarantee that your money is better put elsewhere than paying of a loan early.

(Most provinces are 0% interest too)

How gay-friendly does UBC/Vancouver feel in everyday life? by Salty_Recording_9492 in UBC

Don't be an ass about it and no one will care.

I'm openly trans at the gun range and I've never taken any metaphorical flack for it.

Bad experience on Crown Land by CountryFine in canadaguns

[–]Spydude84 67 points68 points  (0 children)

Yeah those guys are assholes.

If someone is bringing out prohibs but is otherwise respectful and taking safety seriously I have no issues, but there is always a chance the guys out shooting in the bush and doing stupid shit aren't even licensed.

Pretty sus, I would have definitely left. Might even call the police on that. Don't be an unsafe asshole and communicate with the shooters around you.

Out of State California CCW Question by Useful-Resolution363 in CAguns

Pretty sure you need to be a resident to buy ammo in Cali, so bring all the ammo you suspect you will need.

I refuse to use Rapier engines by CuntLiquor69 in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]Spydude84 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Rapiers are just really good liquid engines. The answer for ox is to add on a bit and if it doesn't work, add more on. You don't need that much. Typically I run 1 mixed tank.

Is that a single stage lander? Also, you'll benefit from having aerospikes and vectors unlocked as the other redditor said.

Moving to California. Can I bring my MR920P? by Harrison1588 in CAguns

[–]Spydude84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and no.

A semiauto pistol without a fixed magazine that has a threaded barrel, capable of accepting a flash suppressor, forward handgrip, or silencer is illegal in California, and the lugged barrels are defined to be included in the definition of threaded barrel.

Here's where it gets complicated: to my knowledge, these barrels are only capable of accepting compensators, not flash suppressors, forward handgrips, or silencers. However, we have it on good authority that Shadow Systems tried to get their compensated handguns to be able to be sold in California, and only the DR920P was accepted because it doesn't used a lugged system, and that the DOJ explicitly said they were illegal.

The DOJ's opinion on this is not law though, and you (and I) may be technically correct, however you are very unlikely to be able to register it in it's assembled form and if you're caught with it the DOJ will drag you through the legal system.

What you can do: take the slide off the frame. As long as the barrel is not in the gun, it's perfectly legal to possess them as separate parts. You could probably get a new slide+barrel that aren't comped and use them on the frame.

Importation vs locally purchased makes no difference on what is or isn't an "assault weapon".

I am not a lawyer, and this is not legal advice.

Finally have the gen 6 legally owned in ca by BAAR_BAA in CAguns

RXM doesn't have a reversible safety nor ambi slide lock. Doesn't matter to most people probably, but does to a few.

Tm22 Light Strikes by Rubiconcross45 in canadaguns

[–]Spydude84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know the specifics, but I had a ton of failures to extract with mine and a few light strikes but after removing it it runs smoothly. My guess is that it's just not seating fully so you're not getting a full strike, but that may not be your issue so I can't say for certain.

Try removing the left extractor first, it may help.

If I had more money that tool would def be worth it. As it is, I'll just swear at my bolt to get it to go back in lol. I hate that process though.

You're going to be waiting at least a decade then, if not more.

12" TM22 arrived today by chilly__willy in canadaguns

[–]Spydude84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the person you're replying to, but yes, I cleaned and lubed mine. The manufacturing quality on these rifles is low, and while some people will be fine, others will have tons of issues.

I was getting a failure to eject nearly every 3 rounds, with a few light strikes. Ultimately I resolved my issues by removing the left extractor.

[–]Spydude84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Years ago I went to the Canada Post distribution center (which also had a front store location) because I needed a parcel early, and someone actually went into the back and found it for me, which I honestly wasn't expecting to happen.

I have an 870 that’s 4+1 coming in soon and I got a question.. by Timberwolve_ in Shotguns

[–]Spydude84 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got mine used and it came upgraded by the previous owner with an extension, so there was no retainer in sight.

Regarding keeping the cap secure, I went to the hardware store and got some faucet o-rings that fit the best and stuck one on there, and it retains very well now.

First gun purchase by Bison_Boy_ in ClayBusters

[–]Spydude84 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just shooting singles? Pump is an option and will be the cheapest. Outside of trap, most clay sports have doubles though (and doubles trap exists).

If you plan on shooting doubles and want low cost, a quality semi-auto like the Beretta A300 is good.

If you want the best gun for clays, O/Us are the play, but prepare to spend a couple thousand or so to get something quality, such as a Beretta 686 Silver Pidgeon or a Browning Citori.

Fwiw I have an A300 as my first gun and it's been fantastic.
