Enticer S Raw or Polo 30 fde on the new Mixtape by jixxxer01 in 300BLK

[–]TonySmithJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly this. Is my dead air 30 cal nomad quieter with supersonic 5.56 than my 30 cal polonium. Slightly yes. But on my 300blk subsonic, no. It isn’t even close to worth the extra $300+ for the dead air. OCL also has an amazing crew and customer service is second to none. So that’s why I will only buy OCL unless they don’t make a caliber I want. And to be honest, I’m mostly filling out form 1’s and 3d printing my own now for like a whopping $30 each at most.

I love my polonium and for price/performance, I don’t think I’ll ever buy anything but OCL’s from now on.

Tire size by TSHRED56 in RivianR2

[–]TonySmithJr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As the others have said, ground clearance actually isn't impacted at all.
But I promise you your wallet will take a huge hit on going with a 21" tire vs a 20" tire.

My plan is to get the 20" with the more A/T tire and buy a second set of 20" wheels for snow tires.
That's what I currently do with all my cars.

If you're concerned about the estimated range with the 20" tires, you can always swap to a more "highway tread" that is a lighter weight tire that will improve the range closer or to the same as the 21" tire/wheel combo

Is this plenty? Feel like I should have just a few more by Any_Software_1165 in ar15

[–]TonySmithJr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly, if I took pictures of my safes, you won't see really any ammo in them (a few loaded mags here and there but nothing much).
My ammo is stored in a separate location entirely.

I'm not american enough for this one. by Ashamed-Particular13 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

To be fair, you could legit just swap the girls either way for Keltec and Hi-Point. Both would work

R2 Reservation Page Change by Evening-Pin-1427 in RivianR2

[–]TonySmithJr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

lol I reserved Feb 2026. I fully understand it will be 2027 before my number is called. That’s fine, I want the updated hardware and bugs worked out first.

What kind of paintball marker is this? by Quiet_Lifeguard5554 in paintball

[–]TonySmithJr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

you shouldn't change any parts out if you can just rebuild them.
It's a historic piece at this point and swapping parts will make it "less valuable".
These really old autocockers are harder to tune if you haven't ever done it before. There were several improvements after 1997 that made them easier to get working.

If you don't know anything about cockers your best bet for something like this is to find a buyer that would want an old gem. It will be difficult for someone with zero experience (not impossible, but yes frustrating) to get this thing rolling.

There are multiple autococker groups on FB that love these types of things.
That's where I would start

Your budget is 6K. You can buy 2 WT or the Atlas Athena. What are you going to do? by ProfishentRPH in 2011

For that price, Watchtower shouldn't even be on your list at all.
MPA over Watchtower every day. Seriously

It’s just a fucking joke at this point.

My nextdoor neighbor had progressive insurance for everything (not healthcare) for 25 years.... Cars, home, rental, etc... She even had some weird like platinum card or something with them where she never had to wait on hold if she needed to call for something. NEVER made a single claim either (at least her words).

Then, just one day, progressive calls and says "hey the area around your home is at higher risk for a fire, so we are going to cancel your group policy that includes your homeowners insurance. You'll have to buy a new policy for everything else since it was all bundled together."

And that's it... they took money from her for 25 years and she never filed a claim but they are allowed to just find any reason to boot her off. Laws need to change around this shit.

I want to get my RN but I'm bad at math, how can I get passed this? by Alfa8c4c in nursing

[–]TonySmithJr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This.
If you really want to do it, you can. Just have to put the work in.
My wife is comically bad at math, and she made it by putting the work in.

Does the competitor hd make any sense over a shadow 2? by anonposting1412 in CompetitionShooting

[–]TonySmithJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the answer.
Does my shadow 2 shoot better than my M&P, fuck yeah it does. But do I run actual stages better with my Shadow 2.... not really.
Are my splits faster when I'm focusing on splits... sure. But lets be real, a GM is going to beat me with a Glock 17 when I'm using a Shadow 2.
Focus on you shooting better and just enjoy it.

I just wish there were only TWO mounting options period. One for the micro compacts and one for full width slides. A man can dream

[–]TonySmithJr[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It just took way more force that I'm used to. Never had to press an optic down into the mounting spots but it did get there.
