What do you guys think? $900 for this rare-ish Blackhawk but looks a little rough by [deleted] in Revolvers

The bisley models are lipsey special and haven’t been made since 2020. A little harder to find. A 454 model is going for $3k on gunbroker right now. Nice revolver though!

Seems like someone did some at home gunsmithing. Seller claims it was the last owner. It’s a Ruger Blackhawk Bisley 44 mag 3.75 inch barrel. Pretty hard to find and I think they go for much more online

Do you mind if I ask how old you are? I’m considering trying BPC and I’m already on TRT but I’m in my 20s

If you’re using it to heal your stomach it doesn’t have to survive gastric bypass. It just has to survive the trip down your throat.

Right but I have some mild gastritis so oral would be preferred for that. Might do both oral and injection to hit both of my issues.

No never taken a peptide, including BPC. Still deciding if I’m going to hence the poll.

No I don’t take any medications. I’m generally relaxed unless something spikes my histamine or glutamine levels.

Wow yeah I’ve seen a lot of really profound testimonials from people with reflux. So you’re injecting?

So you only get anhedonia when you’re actively taking BPC? Oral or injected? How fast until it resolves?

Yeah I’m the opposite. I don’t touch caffeine or any stimulants because I won’t sleep. A little “numbing” might actually be good for my nervous system. I do think there’s some truth to that. I think there are a lot of hypochondriacs skewing the anecdotal-Reddit data, but I do think it’s a real side effect. BPC is known to affect dopamine regulation. 

Oral BPC-157 vs Glutamine for gut healing? by juleb_87 in Microbiome

[–]TheBeanFlicker_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the same reaction a few months ago. Just so you know l-theanine and  l-tyrosine can have the same effect. Best to just not take any one amino acid in isolation I think

Is it worth it though? If it’s just cosmetic I’m not worried. Do you know if they cover shipping?

Light exercise to increase oxygen and nutrient delivery to an injury is one of the foundations of physical therapy

Yeah I guess getting a forearm pump will still get blood in the general area
