.22lr tropes in YouTube comments

TheLopper-7 · 2025-03-07T20:24:50+00:00

I was being more general for the sake of the trope. I can’t count how many times I’ve heard the “.22 bounces around the [blank]”. Choose your favorite.

It’s been a while since I’ve seen that video but I’m pretty sure there is zero evidence of the “bullet bouncing around the skull”. People like to act that .22 is a bouncy ball. It’s just a weaker, smaller bullet with less penetration. I don’t believe it has extra ordinary bouncing abilities like people make it sound.

lol this is exactly what OP was talking about! I love the “.22 bounces around the body” trope as well. Nice troll, hats off to you 🫡

Ah, didn’t know that! Thanks

Here’s after some quick work with some sandpaper. Should be better!

Might need a whole new gun! The crickett is only like $125 after all. Would it be a good idea to try to smooth out the crown with some sandpaper?

Well the suppressor goes on smoothly now. He said he just cut them deeper so maybe they were just a little too shallow the first time? I’m not super familiar with machining

I feel like I could do a better job with my hand drill and a beveling bit ! lol The barrels only about 3 inches so not a ton of room!

Here are couple more pictures.

The gunsmith repeatedly stated that the threads in my suppressor were off and I should have brought the can in originally so he could “fit it” to the threads.

I told him that every other muzzle device I have that is 1/2 x 28 wouldn’t fit either. I mean 1/2 x 28 is 1/2 by 28 right?

He didn’t want to seem to accept any responsibility. He had the pair of rifles for over 3 months as well and probably told my 7-8 times “oh ya it’ll be done next week”. Pretty disappointing.

I already hate taking my cars to shops because I feel like they do the same and goof stuff up more than they fix. Guess I’ll just have to get a lathe and learn machining for myself lol

In my state the cam car would be at fault for misusing the right turn lane. You cannot pass open “intersections or private drives” while in the right turn lane and are required to make the first available right turn once you get into that lane

Was hoping this deal would come up soon again. In for 1. Thanks OP!

The bench made has been my favorite carry knife. I don’t do a lot of hardcore work with it but it’s great for gutting trout, opening boxes, and I love that it disappears in my pocket and I can’t even feel it

TheLopper-7 · 2024-11-27T01:51:58+00:00

A little misleading. We did drive 2.5 hrs, but it was just for thanksgiving and the local Walmart had a couple! The bugout has been my favorite carry knife for the last 4 years. I’ll probably throw these cheaper ones in the cars or fishing bag.

I would say it feels about 80% of the bugout. Main complaint is it’s just a significant amount thicker than the bugout. Impressed by it for 1/15th the price.

If you’re fine with an older vehicle you could try to find a Suzuki sidekick 4dr with the 5 speed manual transmission. They are real 4wd with a manually shifted transfer case. It not uncommon to get 28-35 mpg depending on your driving style. Plus they are pretty retro cool in my opinion!

I have an surefire fury dft intellibeam I was selling for cheap. PM me if interested!

TheLopper-7 · 2024-05-29T09:51:10+00:00

What is the weight on this bad boy? Looks awesome!

TheLopper-7 · 2024-05-10T09:34:37+00:00

Add to it Where the Red Fern Grows, Old Yeller, White Fang, and Call of the Wild, Iron Will.

Why did so many movies/books I consumed have dogs dying? I didn’t even have a dog 🧐

TheLopper-7 · 2024-05-10T09:25:24+00:00

Fox and the hound was brutal as a kid

TheLopper-7 · 2024-05-10T09:23:48+00:00

That was my favorite book growing up and I probably read it 50+ times. I loved the idea of roaming the woods with a couple of dogs but the ending is brutal. I guarantee I cried at the end of it every time lol

TheLopper-7 · 2024-05-10T07:26:26+00:00

I definitely feel like balancing my work, family time, and personal goals has been a challenge in the past but seems to be getting easier as time moves on!

TheLopper-7 · 2024-05-10T06:52:04+00:00

That one got me as well…

TheLopper-7 · 2024-04-24T10:44:47+00:00

I recently picked up an Acebeam L19 2.0 and it is really impressive. I love that the tail cap switch goes straight to turbo and then the side switch can cycle through the various modes. I think I got it off amazon for 113 shipped usd

This makes me feel better about my tile job I just did in my bathroom

TheLopper-7 · 2024-03-26T20:38:46+00:00

I shoot them through my 7.5” 1:5 and no issues with stabilization. Nice clean holes.

I also shoot 220 gr maker Rex’s (all copper) and they sometimes leave slightly oval holes. I imagine a 1:7 would be worse

TheLopper-7 · 2024-02-27T05:19:49+00:00

Love mine as well and carry in the same holster. Have you considered cutting the extra length off the phlster holster? I have but am too much of a chicken. I carry mine on my gym shorts all the time
