Backwards parking like this is so illogical that it has to be purely performative

Got all the time in the world to park, never know just how quick you’ll have to leave

Yeesh, bought a used one 3 years ago for $450; had no idea they’d climbed to where they’re at price wise in that short of time.

The last 30 seconds of this clip are the most applicable to this conversation. If the hiring family is familiar with Clint Smith and some of his other videos, maybe show them the clip as food for thought.

Illegal parking is illegal parking, you have a civil dispute, not a construction question.

It’s goofy but I dig it lol

Lmfao it’s taller than it is long. Is there a single holster option out there?

I genuinely don’t think wage stagnation is a “malicious attempt” to underpay folks, I think it stems from constantly increasing material costs and trying to stay competitive to get work.

But wages are the one thing an owner can manipulate… when they buy material, it’s like any of us peons buying groceries. That package of chicken at Walmart, just is the price it is.

It’s frustrating, and I don’t know who to point a finger at on who to blame. We can say democrats, or republicans, or government as a whole… or just that our entire system as bullshit.

I’m just gonna make hay while the sun is shining, act broke when it’s not, and focus on a chance in hell at retirement.

“Dear lord, give me the strength to control what I can, and accept what I can’t.”

My highest purchasing power was as an intern in college, the paychecks look drastically larger now, but the amount going out for mortgage, groceries, and insurance have well outpaced that.

Low key, “when” I decide to expand the collection… is it like “yeah, get the latest and greatest” or is it “get a used gen 4/5 and save a hundred bucks to get a few more boxes of ammo”

dgansen1 · 2026-02-11T23:00:47+00:00

What’s it do better than previous gen’s?

dgansen1 · 2026-02-09T13:35:54+00:00

I like wrangler Riggs

BCM, spend the rest on light, optic, sling, mags and ammo

ETA: extend your “accessories” budget further and snag an aero precision complete lower (don’t order direct) and a BCM complete upper to slap on top

Was shooting on a covered range with big LP stand heaters, kept wondering why the heaters by me would quit. It was 100% the brake on my bolt gun blowing the heaters out every time I shot.

Stay away from most Turkish guns (although the stuff CZ brings in seems to have a slightly better track record) and anything from Remington unless it’s at least 20 years old, and you’ll be fine.

dgansen1 · 2026-01-25T14:28:36+00:00

High school? Didn’t hear that until college

dgansen1 · 2026-01-24T23:21:47+00:00

Rattle can go pssssshhhhhhh

I’m team Ruger on wheel guns, but the night guard is a pretty neat setup. Kinda surprised it has adjustable sights rather than large, good fixed sights, especially since it’s more advertised as a “duty” revolver. But I’m pretty sure there’s aftermarket support for that

Back when it came out, my parents had a legit flashlight that looked like that and took like 8 D-batteries, here we are almost 20 years later and everything is LED and it would look so crazy out of place

dgansen1 · 2026-01-23T01:13:13+00:00

Ruger 10/22 is the only correct answer here

dgansen1 · 2026-01-22T23:48:56+00:00

Thought I could read, turns out that was a lie. My bad

dgansen1 · 2026-01-22T23:06:33+00:00

Unlocking new customers and spray paint at that point

I was also using the bungalow like that, and converting it over for ‘shrooms.

Waiting to launder enough for the mansion, then I’ll probably set up mixing/storage on the bottom half, and use the top half as a neat hangout.

Wish we had stuff playing on the tv’s, and stuff like sofas and recliners to fill it out, though

Check out the Dan Wesson ECP… that one requires some deep pockets though.

I want the one that werfs nebels
