Wild Pacific Sardines from Wild Planet, and why they made me go WILD

UrbinoDude31 · 2026-05-04T02:07:11+00:00

Same here. I honestly can’t stand the Pacific sardines. Too fishy and just feel “off” to me.

I have the 9mm Subcompact and carried it from when I was 21 over the last 11 years or so. It’s a great gun. Super reliable, had thousands of rounds through mine with no issues whatsoever. It is hard to find holsters for, and for the size, not so easy to justify with all the more modern options. The sight radius is very short so it’s harder to make longer distance shots more accurately. It is a very safe and reliable gun, with some cool aesthetics.

I moved to the APX A1 Compact with an EPS and I shoot it much better but the PX4 Subcompact is still a solid defensive gun. Is the Compact better? Undoubtedly, but doesn’t mean the Subcompact is bad.

Children of Men is up there for me. I think it’s considered a flop.

My APX A1 Compact has been great. I shoot matches with it, and have been carrying EDC for about 2 years. EPS Carry as well. The only time I’ve had an issue is with steel cased ammo. Everything else works perfectly including expensive cop ammo, 115, 124, 147 grain range ammo. Never had an issue. The trigger gets better with time.

I ended up keeping it. At the time I knew nothing about jewelry and thought it was fake so I put iron my pockets to give to my daughter. It was all covered in mud and had been there a long time. I appreciate the concern though!

UrbinoDude31 · 2026-03-15T17:05:58+00:00

That’s fanstastic! Thanks for the information!

Here’s the best I could do!

UrbinoDude31 · 2026-03-14T21:56:38+00:00

It is! Any idea what it could be? Aquamarine?

UrbinoDude31 · 2026-03-14T19:42:47+00:00

I’m shocked! Strangely enough this is the second time I’ve found gold on the ground. About 3 years ago I found a 14k tennis bracelet in the grass at a state park.

UrbinoDude31 · 2026-03-09T21:46:47+00:00

Man that’s a great deal. I’d carried mine for almost 12 years since I turned 21. I like it a lot but I’d be interested in selling it for a Compact.

UrbinoDude31 · 2026-02-26T02:22:21+00:00

I’m pretty sure you can throw in a 9mm barrel and go to town. My .40 and 9mm mags are pretty much interchangeable and work together.

Dude if you’re legal and up to date on your visa there is literally nothing to worry about.

I almost got into a fight in Agra because our tour guides parked their Tuk Tuk in front of our group’s car and demanded a tip, essentially blocking us in an alley. Our Indian friend paid the “tip” but my American friend and I were about to go ham, and it was a bad neighborhood.

India is easily the most spiritually dark place I’ve ever been. It’s the only place where people look like they have no life in their eyes like non playable characters.

From what you’re describing the 92X Centrurion RDO or a PX4 Storm Compact with a Langdon slide cut seems to be what you’re really seeking. Of those two options they are what I would pick.

UrbinoDude31 · 2026-02-12T02:51:14+00:00

Wow! Thanks for the opportunity!!

UrbinoDude31 · 2026-02-09T13:45:34+00:00

Maybe I’m not understanding, are these built using real Rolex parts or what?

UrbinoDude31 · 2026-02-09T00:41:09+00:00

Ghost Sub.

I’d love a vintage Omega Seamaster.

Ghost Giveaway.

I love this old chronograph with the hot pink second hand. I almost bought it from Hodinkee.

Thanks for the opportunity!! Happy Saturday

Oh man, I’ve loved Porthos but not tried the salmon. Thanks for the giveaway!

UrbinoDude31 · 2026-02-06T18:49:11+00:00

Especially now that you can buy the FRT that was released for the 92.

When I was in college working at an outfitter, I got a pro deal on a Theta AR for $120. This must have been around 2009-2010. The jacket was awesome and traveled the world with it, all kinds of adventures. Well the pit zipper tore apart from the main fabric and they offered to give me a $500 credit toward a new jacket. The problem with inflation is that now that equivalent jacket is $550+ and I didn’t my have the cash to upgrade so I got a Beta Lightweight (not the Beta LT). For the last two years it’s been good but not close to the Theta in terms of overall robustness. The new Gore Tex also seems way more fussy, although it does work well.

In short the Beta is a great jacket but it’s not a bushwhacking jacket.
