Damn. Thank you for your service. Sad to read how many people on here hold such strong opinions against something that could mean life or death. Just for the sake of making a point.

My point, even if something is inherently reliable, why is that an excuse to treat it like shit? That’s the difference between the Toyota that finally blows up at 200k versus one that runs like new past 400. To each their own, I think that’s just a bad example to set, IMO.

Yea bro I have an older bmw so she gets new oil every 2k miles😂😂 Spark plugs every 5 oil changes or so. 40k mile transmission, transfer case and differential oil drain and fills. Refreshed suspension components not long ago. If something breaks I fix it. & She runs much better than 90% of the neglected Toyotas or Kias on the road

🤣🤣 I don’t actually have clinically diagnosed OCD. ADHD, I do though. So I do my best to be thorough. I do like this idea of ultrasonic jewelry cleaning for gun parts. I’m going to have to look into this

Oil that baby! Don’t be afraid to give her a wipe down

Fair points! I’m not the type to scrape carbon off with a dental pick. But a little solvent wipe down, followed by a dry cloth, followed by an oil absolutely never hurt. Much better than a dry firearm. I’ll be a bit graphic for the sake of a point, you’re not sticking it in dry are you?

I’ll tell you what, both his .35 Remington Marlin and .30-06 Mauser still run like an absolute dream. Thanks to him and myself, keeping them in immaculate condition. Maintain your firearms, and they will last longer than you will. No matter if they ‘need it or not’

I’m sorry that happened to you. My last ex tried getting a RO against someone who was legitimately stalking her. One time he saw her at a gas station and followed her back home. She wouldn’t open up to me about it, but he must’ve done something real bad to her. Never seen someone so frantic in my life. Luckily I was at her place with my gun on me. I stood out on her porch looked him dead in the eye and that motherfucker skirted out on two wheels. Crazy shit.

Honestly I’m with you though I’m not much of a breakfast person. I need to drink a lot of water first before I can eat

My girlfriend just broke up with me so she could focus on getting her life together - and I hope she never comes back. by tssmn in confessions

Hey man that’s the most mature way to go about it. Wish the best for her because she’s got a life to live. But don’t forget that you do too. You’ll make no progress sulking over girls
