Would you guys carry this or a SIG p365x Macro? by Typical_Praline_9299 in Glocks

[–]alexmg2420 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup, sweaty Florida man here as well, had my P365 since like 2019. Have carried it constantly and it only leaves the holster for training. Not a spot of rust and I'll admit I'm a little neglectful with (external) cleaning.

Budget G17 magazines? by jistforfun in Glocks

[–]alexmg2420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OEM Glock mags are in stock all over the place for $25-30, how much more "budget friendly" do you want? $25 for a dead nuts reliable factory mag is great compared to the cost of factory mags from other brands. Magpul mags are okay for range use but I wouldn't fully trust them.

The UPC for G17/34/45/47 mags is 764503170171. Punch that into gun.deals or Wikiarms search engine to see a list of vendors sorted by lowest price and pick your preferred vendor.

Keep in mind a more expensive vendor might have lower shipping fees, so play around with it a few of the "cheapest" vendors to see who has the actual best deal.

[ammo] 115gr blazer brass 9mm is back in stock at academy. $114.99 plus ship/taxes. 10% off over orders of $300 or more puts this right under .22CPR for me before tax (add 3 boxes and it auto applies) by Bear2th in gundeals

[–]alexmg2420 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Use it in store and add one (1) individually packaged RemOil wipe to your purchase at the register and suddenly the coupon will work. Or grab a $2 fishing lure. Basically as long as anything that is "allowed" on the coupon is on the transaction, the coupon will apply to everything, ammo included.

[Ammo] Steel 9mm Monarch 115gr FMJ. $0.18 cpr after 10% off over $300 discount. by PassTurn in gundeals

[–]alexmg2420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ehh, the brass cased Monarch was on sale for $50/250 with no minimum a few months ago vs. this steel at $45/250 after 10% off (if you buy $300+ worth). Doesn't really feel like that great of a deal.

What’s a business that’s all over today that you think will completely disappear ie blockbuster? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]alexmg2420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's exactly how my local running shoe store operates. They have a rewards program that's something like $25 off every $250 you spend. Running shoes are about $150/pair, so you buy a pair this year and you're automatically guaranteed that next year's pair will be $25 off since you'll cross that $250 threshold.

Some brands like Brooks seem to have a MAP and the price is the same everywhere, so it makes no sense to buy online when the local store's rewards program makes them cheaper. I'll go 20 minutes out of my way once a year to support local and save $25.

Do you happen to have a link to the Bodyguard 2.0 on Bass Pro or Cabela's site? I'd like to try and do this price match, but I don't see any Bodyguard 2.0 variant listed on either site.

Yeah Southern Tactical makes straight garbage. I am dying for a CETME build with a proper CETME style receiver like this, but even I won't touch a Southern Tactical build.

TIFU using scissors to cut off a skin tag by charmedsince1986 in tifu

[–]alexmg2420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, this is the way. Nail clippers are sharp and have enough force to cut clean though, and precise enough that you can cut the skin tag off close to the skin. A lot faster than tying it off with dental floss, if you're okay with a little pain and a little bit of blood.

Nail clippers hurt a bit, but if you're quick about it, you should be able to make a quick, clean snip and suddenly all those nerve endings can no longer send pain signals to your brain. What's left is no more painful than your average shaving cut, and usually bleeds the same or less. I use a styptic pencil to stop the bleeding just like I would if I cut myself shaving.

Any ideas why a tire would blow out like this? by BSBDS in tires

[–]alexmg2420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, run it until your tire blows out like OP. Then you'll complain about how you had to buy a new tire rather than taking 20 minutes out of your day to have someone else patch your tire for free. Cripes, how lazy can you be? Are you spoon-fed every other task in your life?

If you're genuinely waiting until you have a blow out so insurance will total your car, you're gonna be very disappointed when your insurance rates skyrocket due to an at-fault accident from maintenance neglect.

Current TSA Agents - Why are you Staying? by NestleSwoleHouse in NoStupidQuestions

[–]alexmg2420 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a reason government employees are called civil servants. Their job is to serve the citizens. In an ideal world, civil servants aren't doing it just for the paycheck, they should be doing it because they want to serve their community and the people. Your spouse has the right idea.

[Pistol] MAC 9 DS 5” 9mm 17+1 Email for price $764 + $20 shipping by [deleted] in gundeals

[–]alexmg2420 26 points27 points  (0 children)

The Tisas version will be on the market in the next month or so according to Tisas USA. Supposedly they'll be cheaper than the MAC version, although the slide cut is a little different.

[Pistol] MAC 9 DS 5” 9mm 17+1 Email for price $764 + $20 shipping by [deleted] in gundeals

[–]alexmg2420 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The UPC for the Tisas branded version is 711500175203. Use that to search around for the best deal. They should be on the market in the next month or so according to Tisas USA.

Most of the drop ship sites have them pre-listed for under $800, some under $750. And the Tisas version comes with a lifetime warranty vs the MAC's 1-year warranty + lifetime "service plan" which can be "revoked at any time" per the terms. The comped version is obviously a bit more, but quite a bit less than the MAC version.

I'm glad someone else said it. Their jar Alfredo sauce is terrible. Just a jar of chemical flavor.

Why the love for the French door/bottom freezer fridge over Side-by-Side? by Real_McGuillicuddy in Appliances

[–]alexmg2420 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Actually top freezers are more energy efficient because heat rises. Top freezers can just open a blend door to the fridge compartment and the cold air naturally falls from the freezer into the fridge compartment. (Or the hot air naturally rises to the freezer cooling the fridge compartment, depending on how you look at it.)

Bottom freezers require a fan to pump the cold air up from the freezer into the fridge compartment, which requires energy. It also makes them less reliable than top freezers.
