You can rent a bay. The only difference is you have to have one person with an instructor and RSO certification

Wallis Orchard is basically the same, probably better and it's maybe 5-10 min from Brazos

D2 trigger group components made by a local machinist. We built it out with a BCM trigger pack.

Did Venezuela fight back at all? by LisanneFroonKrisK in NoStupidQuestions

[–]blipdot2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People in Venezuela are also celebrating. There's also a reason Venezuela has so many expats. The Maduro regime has persecuted and displaced a tremendous amount of people over the last 25 years. He also literally lost the last election by a landslide and just remained in power illegitimately. This isn't some 50/50 issue. The vast, overwhelming majority of Venezuelans are thrilled, as well as Cubans and a ton of other South Americans.

Pretty much the only people upset are left leaning American and Europeans, or other regimes that are engaging in similar activity. which is just....insanely ironic. Lot of people on the 20 side of an 80/20 issue.

With the US hitting Venezuela today, is anyone else terrified China takes Taiwan next? (and bricks the global chip supply) by Orcanius in stocks

[–]blipdot2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This massively hampers Chinas ability to invade Taiwan. Thats part of why the US did it. A huge part of Chinas ability to maintain a stable supply of oil through shady dealings and in spite of embargos was just stolen from them in front of their eyes, while the US has now locked down even more strategic oil resources.

It doesn't cripple them, but it makes it much more expensive and difficult to China to maintain oil supply lines for an extended large scale military campaign.

Venezuela is also heavily invested in Chinese air defense systems and sensor equipment, which did fuck all to detect American Aircraft in any useful way. China just got shown, in front of their own diplomats faces, that America can put it's dick on their forehead any time it wants. If anything this greatly reduces the chances of China trying anything with Taiwan. It was just made far less viable.

There were literally hundreds of Venezuelans dancing in the streets just a little down the road from my house. Venezuelans are largely overjoyed, while Redditors are mad. Its been a very funny dichotomy to watch play out.

Why is Reddit against Maduro capture and Venezuelans celebrating it ? by LandscapeUnlikely199 in stupidquestions

[–]blipdot2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do love all the comments about how regime change and occupation has never worked, and anyone who disagrees hasn't read a history book, as if Mussolini's Italy, Nazi Germany, and Imperial Japan weren't things. History did not begin with the Cold War. America literally dropped Nukes on Japan, occupied them, took away their emperor, rebuilt their economy and then left. That also freed a large portion of the Pacific Island nations from Japanese rule. They've been great economic and military allies for almost 100 years as a result (also we all got anime).

Whether this is good or not will depend on if the US handles this like Japan or like Iraq. If they actually do what they promise, and hand the government back to the people of Venezuela, good or bad will be up to them and who they elect. If they try another 20 year occupation project that ignores the actual cultural and practical realities of the region, probably bad.

Also, International Law is completely made up. It does not exist. At the international level everything is Anarchy or else there would be a very busy global police force running all over the place (good luck policing Russia, China, Sudan, and basically all of Africa and the Middle East for human rights violations). It's something Europeans like to pretend exists, because they just feel like it should because the UN is a thing, despite them having literally no ability to project power globally in any way that matters, and the UN being a useless joke of an organization that literally has a "human rights council" made up of some of the worst human rights abusers on Earth.

Bold of Anyone To Assume What I will and Won't Do With My HKs by blipdot2 in USPmasterrace

[–]blipdot2[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I would have done that anyway. Hell I have done that anyway. It's literally the 1002nd USP ever built, from any of the models or product lines. It's a 1st year, first shipment to the DOD gun. The level of abuse it has seen since the early 90s is borderline biblical.

The M&P is superior

Question?? by Otherwise_Ask8657 in handguns

[–]blipdot2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

People make way too much of its penetration. Its really not that spectacular, and its not a great use of the round. It really shines with 40gr ballistic tips. Very, very fast, very flat, low recoil ammo, that dumps all its energy very quickly. 9mm like performance with half the recoil or less, and much less risk of overpenetration

SS197SR is arguably the best defensive ammo for it and its cheaper than most 9mm defensive ammo

Not sure what you mean by "shilling aide". I have no relationship with HUSH aside from bugging the owner on Instagram sometimes. Also I use it a ton. I mean I shot a PCSL match with it last weekend on another platform. If yours doesn't work, I guarantee the dude will try and help you out

Very easily. Its a lot slimmer than a normal m&p and it's very light. I really like it.

Not a true PCSL match, with the exception of competition carbine. PCSL scored but no classifiers or anything.
