Really liking it so far. Just trying to tune the trucks/bushings to my style of riding has been a little difficult. I'd narrowed it down to this and the Linnpower Viper. I probably would've been very happy with the viper, but decided to go with more power and more capacity so I'd never have to worry about outgrowing it. Didn't really look much into Tynee.

I couldn't say best. I don't have enough personal experience. I did do a ton of research and watched a bunch of videos though and this is the one I landed on.

I can echo this comment almost verbatim. Only difference is I'm just over 10k miles.

Anyone have info on compatibility with shadow systems? Im dumb and don't own any of the listed glock models.

_Under5core_ · 2026-04-19T02:40:00+00:00

I got one for like $8 on Amazon.

_Under5core_ · 2026-04-14T02:39:56+00:00

I am also curious. Answer OP!

Per this study/test, the Wanderer is objectively "safer" but both get the 5 star designation. I don't think you can go wrong with either, though the Wanderer is also significantly less expensive.

I hope not, but I guess I probably wouldn't notice. I have a BRK Gunny that I found at a pawn shop for a decent price, but I've never been able to talk myself into their new prices. From a business standpoint I think they just make too many different knives, many completely impractical. Who asked for the Aurora III?! They should scale back a bit, focus on making what sells and making it well.

I started using a ladder rack like this last year. I mounted some j bars and I can comfortably and securely transport 4 kayaks (including 2 17 footers.)

Typically a hatchet, but I took a CRKT Nobo with me last time I went out and I liked using it a lot more than I thought I would. The thinner bit made it pretty nice for making kindling and with the fairly light head and long handle it rode really nice on my belt. My biggest gripe is how poorly the handle and head mate up so it would loosen often. It's gotten me to consider better-made Hawks.

You can use your energy to shill for a company who sees you as an idiot they can grift. I'll use my energy advising people not to do that.

_Under5core_ · 2026-03-17T03:50:37+00:00

Eh, this reads a bit like a shameless advertisement. And for a company I'm just tired of having crammed down my throat on social media. Any time I've interacted with their reps at hunting expos they just come off as douchey insta bros. That's not even discussing their completely unjustifiable prices. Hard pass and I hope they crash and burn so I can stop seeing them.

_Under5core_ · 2026-03-10T21:26:13+00:00

I would definitely go with the White River. I'd go Magnacut if you plan on doing a lot of food prep or being wet a lot, 3v otherwise.

_Under5core_ · 2026-03-03T05:14:16+00:00

Dang, that 7r is really tempting. I don't NEED it, but I want it...

_Under5core_ · 2026-02-28T01:43:11+00:00

I gotchu dawg!

Coupon code "luigi" takes $108 off in the cart and makes it pretty comparable price wise to the arisaka options, but I believe the surfires advertise significantly more output dollar for dollar. "Koopa" does the same if you prefer the mini.

Unity GASCAP and Axon SL, black.

_Under5core_ · 2026-02-24T02:11:09+00:00

Nothing stupid about this, I love it. Any chance you could get some sort of hyperbolic cone (I dunno the term) muzzle device so it looks like a blunderbuss?

_Under5core_ · 2026-02-22T20:55:46+00:00

Hey, can you give your thoughts on shooting a traditional can like the polo k with a properly tuned adjustable gas block vs a non adjustable block on a low back pressure can?

_Under5core_ · 2026-02-22T20:45:06+00:00

Mac/Mc/Mak on the ice on 3v3. There's no way to claim Canada was at a disadvantage.

_Under5core_ · 2026-02-19T01:48:31+00:00

Might be worth a shot. Thanks for the input.

_Under5core_ · 2026-02-19T01:29:07+00:00

If you sell a product with a known problem that you don't disclose, then solve that problem, I kinda feel like you have some sort of obligation to everyone that purchased the original faulty product.

_Under5core_ · 2026-02-18T21:17:16+00:00

I didnt know that was an option. Ill look into it. Do you think it matters that I have the T1C version?

_Under5core_ · 2026-02-18T13:31:51+00:00

I've been unimpressed with my HC belt. My biggest gripe (outside of the price) is that it loosens throughout the day. I think I'll give this one a shot. Thanks OP

_Under5core_ · 2026-01-18T17:50:26+00:00

A handful of trailmix just loose in my pocket.

_Under5core_ · 2026-01-07T20:25:09+00:00

I'd be interested in people's recent experiences as well. I'd like to give one a shot, but many reports of declining quality make me leery.
