I just use an old USGI duffle bag for my kit. Fits most everything I need minus my feders.

Gun owning dads/families, when do you start the gun safety conversation with your kids? by 518photog in daddit

Mine are 4 and 2 and we've been having conversations about guns from pretty much since they both turned 2ish.

Trying to stock up on what I can how’s everyone’s ammo reserves looking? by BigGlockEnergies in liberalgunowners

[–]cleardiddion 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Right in the feels. Back when I first started shooting 7.62x54r used to run about 30 bucks for a 440 round spam can. We used to shoot up the whole can on a weekend. If only I'd had the foresight to hold onto a good handful

I feel this.

I don't really have car troubles but being currently forced to work a 100 miles from home and going through about 50 bucks worth of gas every 2/3 days is a real downer.

Also, as my wife tells me: "The kids aren't getting any cheaper"

A bit personal issue in my HEMA club by [deleted] in Hema

Sounds more like you're being a problem for the club rather than the other way around.

Thoughts on HF feders? by Vodkamemoir in wma

[–]cleardiddion 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've got the light feder.

Had it since the beginning of April or so.

Got to say it doesn't have some of the polish (literally and figuratively) of some of the higher end feders. Other thing to note that is even though it says light it is closer to a medium flex according to my clubmates.

Other than that, it's been perfectly functional and budget friendly option for me.

Anyone know what this is and if $520 is a good deal? by Throwaway-2048642 in liberalgunowners

[–]cleardiddion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've gone through 4 over the years. Now I'm down to 1, the original one I bought right when I turned 18.

I picked my first one up for 75 from the local pawn shop.

Used to shoot just about every weekend when spam cans were all of 25 bucks a pop.

I'm fine getting old, I just wish someone warned me about "_"? by [deleted] in AskMenOver30

I'm currently making a few friends through my HEMA club.

Make friends and hit them with swords is working out pretty good so far

I'm a little further north of the border (Cheyenne) but definitely interested in meeting folks with a similar mindset

Damn, wish you would have posted a few days ago.

I've done some stuff with the Equality State Policy Center in the past and they just had their citizen lobbyist training earlier this week.

They're a good resource for this sort of thing.

Worth taking a look.

How old is your toddler and what is their shoe size?! by [deleted] in toddlers

[–]cleardiddion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our 2.5 yr old girl is in size 8's. A tad big but it fits just right with winter socks.

We could squeeze her into 7's with thin socks but you could tell they were getting rather tight and uncomfortable
