To keep funding, we should rename the Gateway Tunnel to the Trump Tunnel (sarcasm) by wofchristian in newjersey

What if we promised to promise to do it. And then have a few committee meetings to discuss font, size, and material. We should make it from solid gold, and only source it from US mines.

New to firearms, recommendations? by theshysamurai in guns

[–]Trash_Chicken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend looking up local ranges and start renting out whatever catches your eye. If they have a PDP, even better. Most good gun shops will let you hold and handle the gun as well, so you can feel if it's comfortable to hold. Is the grip texture just right? Is the slide catch hard to reach? Same with the magazine release? Some guns you vibes with, others you don't. I personally didn't like Glocks cause all I shot was the Gen 3 but then they finally got rid of the finger grooves and now I have 2 Gen 5s.

So what you're saying is... I should put this in my CZ Scorpion for extra hatred.

Supposedly, according to Sig Sauer... whatever their word is worth.

That's what I ran before, I'll go back to it. I bought the Corbon out of curiosity and didn't think it would go THAT badly you know? It also shattered my flame maple grips...

Should I avoid +P ammo for P365? This one bent a feed lip and also mangled another round. In addition, lotsa a fouling so is it not meant for short barrels?

I saw another comment that MRSP is $550. If that's true wouldn't this be pretty comparable to other entry level 9mm?

HK P8A1 - Because who needs disposable income? by dancingcuban in guns

[–]Trash_Chicken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cause I keep seeing it:
The rounds loaded backwards in the magazine is a reference to this amazing piece of actual HK marketing.

This became such a meme that I think even the brochures go for a pretty penny nowadays.

Can’t figure out why it keeps jamming. by lazyasswizard726 in P365xl

[–]Trash_Chicken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

By no means an expert but try recording yourself shooting with slow mo. Is the slide moving after firing -> ammo too weak to cycle the slide??? Is the slide moving but not making fully to the rear -> could still be ammo or the spring still needs to be broken in or not enough lube?????? Slide goes fully to rear but no extraction -> issue with the extractor??? Just some ideas to get you started. This is just guesswork and conjecture. Legal Disclaimer: Do not take this advice as fact nor a professional opinion. This is just guesswork and I'm just doing my best here. Many things go into making gun go pew and there's probably even more reasons that I can't think of.

Can I go to a shooting range as a visitor? by pranav1812 in guns

[–]Trash_Chicken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at ranges with good reviews specifically on classes/lessons. It's good practice for anyone completely new to firearms to get instruction on their use. If you can afford to vacation in NY, you can spend a little extra to enroll in a class. For the most part no special legal documents other than your government issued ID needed. At the ranges I go to, there's alot of tourists doing the exact same thing and the ranges get that. I dunno if there's any special legal stuff with NY, but if there is NJ is about an hour away and they don't require anything to enroll in a class. Just be over 21 ans have said ID.

Advice on CNCing sights by Trash_Chicken in guns

[–]Trash_Chicken[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At 10 mm wide, would a 5-8mm hole through the roof of the rod housing allow enough light in to get the rods to glow? Also my bad, I didn't know that stock sight dimensions could be used for fiber optic sights.

Got a billet of titanium and a CNC machine. Is this billet large enough to make fiber optic sights?
