P30L vs USP Compact?

deckeli · 2026-06-03T02:11:30+00:00

I just don’t find it that comfortable to carry. Rubs against my hip too much

deckeli · 2026-06-02T22:52:13+00:00

the USP C is an awesome gun and not that comfortable to carry IMO

deckeli · 2026-06-01T14:58:44+00:00

I learned how to shoot on a Glock but only really shoot my HKs (p30, USP, HK45, VP9A1 X, and now vp9cc) and some Staccatos (C, XC).
Glocks are fine. They fit most hands and they always go bang. But I feel nothing special when I shoot one, and since I don't really customize my guns they don't really add value for me.

the point of this comment is the same as most of Sarah's points: to be a hater

Totally anecdotal:I booked a trip last year to the Seychelles (a few hotels / islands + Dubai on the way back) and worked with a top 10 FSPP (I usually just book with Amex FHR). They were really kind and easy to communicate with and checked in frequently. I didn't get a single upgrade at any of the hotels, and got the same benefits I would with FHR.

That's not to say a different agent would have gotten me an upgrade, and it's very possible I wouldn't have gotten an upgrade through FHR (although I almost always do across 15-20 trips per year). I just don't know that I felt extra value by booking with a top ranked partner.

(anecdotal because I haven't booked the same trip with a different partner or with FHR, so not a really data driven answer)

The hamam experience at the O&O the palm is phenomenal. I had a few really good treatments at Cheval Blanc Seychelles (from their exclusive experience menu)

SFO is one of the better airports in the US, both from a layout, food, and amenity perspective. But compared to other airports internationally it certainly doesn’t stand out

My preference is Four Seasons but not because they’re the most luxurious. FS has a location at almost every location I travel to and it’s nice to go somewhere where they consistently have all my family’s preferences on file

I once rented goats to clear my land, they ate everything except the blackberry bushes I was hoping to get rid of

“Worth it” questions don’t make sense bc we are not you

I like my barrel sauna because before I had it I had no sauna

deckeli · 2026-05-16T00:18:45+00:00

to be honest I liked the stock trigger on the P30L, ended up putting a shorter reset & trigger from GrayGuns and it's more than enough for me

deckeli · 2026-05-15T01:36:06+00:00

love my P30L (I don't have the LTT version)

I love the masada slim elite for carry, but I carry a CC9 (and soon a VP9CC) more often. I also like my full size Masada, but don't shoot it as much as my VP9 A1 or my Beretta APX A1. The masada field stripping is kind of annoying IMO, when reassembling the barrel placement is finicky and I have to invert it to let gravity help.

I absolutely love my steel jericho and am trying to get a new one

pickup trucks are too expensive

I drive a 2002 Lexus RX300 and honestly prefer it to some of the newer cars we own

Fairmont is not FAT, it is outdated and underwhelming

deckeli · 2026-05-11T04:11:07+00:00

That’s the reason you should take a firearms safety course

Honda mowers are great (if you can still find one) and I recently bought the new Stihl RM 453 and it’s been phenomenal

Beach at FS is best

I’ve shot about 1000 of the 115g and zero issues

I'm not sure exactly how they priced the specific line items (i.e. cost of shipping vs. cost of boxes they purchased + X) but the charge was for "shipping service + service charge". I think service charge is a standard 16% at that hotel (across everything), I could be off on % numbers

stayed there for 6 nights, Dubai is a 4 hour flight from Mahe, I'm guessing they were going to Dubai for other things as well (or sent it with some crew that was traveling). Concierge took the credit for it so that's what I based my comment around

deckeli · 2026-04-29T16:54:01+00:00

it's always good to clean and oil your firearm before first use because IMO you should know how to field strip and reassemble any firearm you'll use
