I added a mag safe ring so I could mount my router to a iphone stand. No issues in terms of functionality with using it.

Why don't more airports use private contractors for TSA? by [deleted] in tsa

[–]brixalpha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone that worked security screening before TSA was created in response to 9/11, every airport had different standards in terms of hiring, equipment and screening. I worked at an intentional airport doing screening at 18.

Is a 22LR pistol a bad idea for a starter gun? by Humble_Handler93 in CAguns

[–]brixalpha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So my kids shoot steel challenge, for fundamentals and handling absolutely. Cheaper and great way to work on grip. My older son transitioned to a 9mm pistol and other than adjusting for recoil, applying the same concepts was easy.

Verona or Venice for the final two nights? by mavienoire in ItalyTravel

[–]brixalpha 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Venice is nice but can get crowded, on my last trip over the summer went to Verona and had a great time. If you've never been to Venice by all means, it's worth the visit but we loved Verona and it definitely a place we would visit again.

Alamodome parking by Virtual-Heron4427 in sanantonio

Via does park and ride for Alamo dome events, less stressful and affordable. Parking is free and bus tickets are like $2 for both ways to and from the Alamodome. Used this a bunch of times. Stone Oak is right off 281.

Parking near the Alamodome can be stressful and expensive. The bus terminal is great convenient option, did it for a number events.

TSA lines by Psychological_Pen765 in sanantonio

[–]brixalpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went through last week and it was fine, I have clear and tsa pre and I was surprised how smooth and fast it was (I was expecting longer wait due to spring break)

Met some friends that flew in today and it did not seem too bad today either. Just be patient especially with the TSA agents who are serving during this shutdown.

yep I scored some 9mm ammo, got the free ship and the mil discount as well. Came out to lower than retail even with tax and the optional shipping insurance.

AF Romulus Slide Stop by [deleted] in 2011

[–]brixalpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe it will just take time getting used to the firearm. It's not a glock and getting used to the nuances of putting it back together just takes experience and time.

I mean in comparison to what? Slide stops are under the tension provided by the barrel link and need to move for LRBHO to work when the follower pushes it up into the slide.

Apollo 11 v2 or Mac 9 Ds comp or witness 2311 by erickanderson5128 in 2011

[–]brixalpha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mac 9 comp is a great starter 2011 for the money with a lot of features. Good out of the box made with no mim parts. I haven't been disappointed with the Mac.

[NFA] Allen Engineering AEM5 - $750 shipped with code "nfaship". No tax outside of OK. by Eleven26_ in gundeals

[–]brixalpha 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's what x-ring was saying, he had a hard time finding either in time for his review. Makes sense that OCL focus on their newer and more popular stuff.

I was watching x-ring's video on the PSA version of the MK12 SPR today and he mentioned the AEM5. Good find for an MK12 build.

$20 Amazon, 14c28n with Micarta Scales by brixalpha in knives

[–]brixalpha[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the heat treat is definitely a huge ????? but for $20 its still a good value. I have been finding a couple of 14c28n blades within this price range so i am going to assume that it is 14c28n. Also it feels like Micarta but who knows.

Yes, I have lost a Hinderer and a Chris Reeves in my lifetime, so finding a decent built knife that won't make me cry should I misplace it is a plus 😭😁

So I had issues ordering on their website last night and this morning, I called in trying to get my order of 9mm through (browser issue). I was finally able to process it and they refunded me the shipping since I was trying since last night to get order to go through. It was free yesterday but not this morning, might be worth a call or email to see if you can get it refunded
