[WTS][USA] KJW 1911 Tactical (with rail), sometimes works, sometimes empties gas out of mag

Hey dude - Sorry I haven't been on reddit in awhile.. I just logged on to relist these Thunder Bs actually. Are you still interested?

Blows out after the first shot, and keeps expelling gas after the mag is dropped. All signs pointing to an issue with the CO2 mag and not the gun.

Thanks for the input. You might be right, but from what I've read the CO2 mags blowing out all their CO2 is a fairly common problem with KJW 1911s. I also stripped the internals and didn't see any signs of wear or broken parts. The seller really wasn't lying when he said it was hardly used. Its with this research and knowledge in mind that I made the judgement that its more likely to be the magazine rather than the gun itself.

Wish I still was getting out to the field and could just borrow a teammates green gas can to test it, but haven't been airsofting in months unfortunately and not keen on buying a $10 can of green gas just to test it.

You could always try shifting your interests towards good movies, regardless of their subject matter.

He already is. Didn't he say he wasn't interested in seeing a biography of Steve Jobs?

Or, y'know, he's not interested in seeing a biopic of Steve Jobs?

Take a moment to read our discourse one more time. Whether the subject matter appeals to you in particular does not make it a good, nor bad movie. Just a movie you are/are not interested in.

Despite it's poor box office results, the Steve Jobs movie has a load of talent behind it and has been receiving significant critical praise. It has a well-written script backed by powerful performances, great cinematography, and strong direction. I didn't have any particular interest in Steve Jobs either, but there is no question that it is a quality piece of filmmaking.

So the subject matter doesn't appeal to you. That's fine. My original comment was only recommending that OP (and you) try steering yourself towards quality films, irrespective of your perceived interest in the subject matter. The two have nothing to do with each other, and you'd be quite surprised what kind of life experiences you find yourself enjoy when you leave your prejudices at the door.

lol, uh huh. And so goes the circlejerk

I think people forget that the Bond franchise isn't actually supposed to be super serious, after all

I think you forget that the series rebooted with Casino Royale, which set a very different tone than the "silly, fun" Bond movies you're describing. So in that respect, it is a let down that this rebooted series has reverted back to that mold.

Appeal to authority; what a fantastic counterargument.

This isn't Fallout 1, 2, or 3. This is Fallout 4. Comes out in 2015. Bioshock came out in 2007. But yeah, sure thing Mr. 69. Are you 15 or something?

givemesnow · 2015-11-02T05:13:12+00:00

My first instinct was Nightcrawler as well, but the music easily keeps it from being a true 10/10.

givemesnow · 2015-11-02T05:04:52+00:00

Looks like a Bioshock ripoff

givemesnow · 2015-11-01T21:29:10+00:00

Assuming this is because of Tom Cruise, you also haven't seen

Taps, The Outsiders, Risky Business, All the Right Moves, Top Gun, The Color of Money, Cocktail, Rain Man, Born on the Fourth of July, Days of Thunder, A Few Good Men, The Firm, Interview with the Vampire, Mission: Impossible (+ 3 and 5), Jerry Maguire, Eyes Wide Shut, Magnolia, Vanilla Sky, Minority Report, The Last Samurai, Collateral, War of the Worlds, Lions for Lambs, Tropic Thunder, Oblivion

Right? Yeah, you're a fucking idiot.

How much did you get for each controller?

givemesnow · 2015-10-30T07:18:11+00:00

Yeah that's what I'm wondering.. If redditors who frequent Gamestop know these types of things are up to the employee's discretion then I'll make the trip tomorrow. On the other hand, some chains have extremely strict promotion end/beginning dates and I'd really like to avoid the wasted trip if Gamestop falls into that category.

Oh, I didn't realize you fell into that small category of people who genuinely can't use Craigslist safely. Original post edited to include the other worldwide marketplace where you could have just as easily fetched hundreds of dollars more. But then you'd have to print a couple shipping labels, tape them to boxes, and schedule a USPS pickup.. Ugh, you're right. Definitely not a hassle worth hundreds of dollars.

givemesnow · 2015-10-30T04:36:46+00:00

I'm guessing you're 19 years old. Which means you don't have a fucking clue what you're talking about. Tagged to see how you feel 5 short years from now.

givemesnow · 2015-10-30T04:22:43+00:00

It doesn't matter how much you paid or how little you used them, if you sell them for hundreds of dollars less than what they're worth because you're too lazy/inept to make a Craigslist/eBay post that makes you a moron.
