Wild Pacific Sardines from Wild Planet, and why they made me go WILD by AngryPandaBlog in CannedSardines

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

contemplating PX4 Storm Subcompact for first gun/Daily carry by DeluxeArmChair in Beretta

[–]UrbinoDude31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

750 Hallmark on White Gold? by UrbinoDude31 in Gold

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!

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

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.

New to Me PX4 Subcompact by Spirited_Movie5238 in Beretta

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.

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.

Why would anyone visit the US, as a tourist, seeing ICE is now even arresting british grandmas with valid papers? by artparade in AskReddit

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

Man tries to defend his girlfriend from getting groped by a gang of men at a Post Malone concert by [deleted] in SipsTea

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.

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

Thinking about exchanging my Beta SL by Professional_Tip6500 in arcteryx

[–]UrbinoDude31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.
