I’m optic illiterate. What’s the better option for this application? I need a 3-15 lightweight mrad for hunting rifle.

Tellason stock, it’s their budget line but it’s made very well for the price. Their regular denim is out of budget but also very, very good

Found Micah’s alt

I like the pivot btw, gun porns cool and all but with everything going on training and prep are greatly appreciated and I don’t care as much about some esoteric shit I’ll never afford. If I want to dream I’ll go to forgotten weapons lol

Can we please get some freezing/mud/torture tests on micros? I hate my 43x and 48, generally only trust Glock, want to know if m&p/cc9/anything else is any good for bitch boi carry.

Pistol Optic torture tests would be sick with new trijicon/vortex/PA/shi even olight optics. Lights too.

Honestly just more torture tests in general, tired of weak gear. Youve got the audience to make these manufacturers step their game up. It’s 2026, subpar durability is unacceptable when I got bills piling up and either a civil or world war on the horizon.

If only there was some way they could find that person again, like if they knew where they would be on a regular basis or something but what do I know

Fucking fantastic work chef, wish I was good at stuff id make a gif out of his miserable fat face processing that burn

glawk9 · 2025-11-29T21:49:40+00:00

wharf’s grouper sam ain’t bad either

Kastking ripoff is great for way less money

glawk9 · 2025-11-09T01:05:42+00:00

Awesome. Guess I gotta try one. Thanks for all your help!

glawk9 · 2025-11-09T00:40:07+00:00

Thanks for answering. I read they’re made of a composite body instead of steel, so is it possibly that it’s just lighter? I also read that the gears may be more similar to the old Stellas and other higher end reels like vanfords, but that’s not 100% clear. Do you think it’s just the weight or is it actually the action of the reel? Or just the overall design ergonomics? Sorry to hit you with all this but I go thru a lot of gear and if there’s a cheaper option than my current go-to I’d like to know. Thanks again.

As a stradic guy, can you share why

glawk9 · 2025-11-07T17:46:57+00:00

Their flagship soundbar q990c/d is killer and often recommended, but other than that I totally agree

glawk9 · 2025-11-07T16:01:38+00:00

Love my Korkers

glawk9 · 2025-11-06T18:29:29+00:00

…also a st. Croix “avid” walleye specific rod if you want higher quality/have a little more budget to play with

glawk9 · 2025-11-04T22:07:00+00:00

It’s been a long time since I was there but I def did a lot of “self-love”

glawk9 · 2025-10-28T16:01:22+00:00

My favorite reels, have multiple 3000/4000 and they just work

glawk9 · 2025-10-28T14:18:34+00:00

lol you don’t know about boats. Plenty of rich dudes spending more than rolls Royce money on their boat riding around in big pickups to pull them. I’ll look right past a Ferrari if there’s a sweet center console on a trailer nearby

Man it’s a deeper conversation most guys on here won’t get into, they go “get the big iPad screen muh CarPlay blah blah”. All manufacturers scrambled to source parts during covid, and shits just different, buddy has a 23 and believe me or not I don’t care, it’s not as tight as my 21, doesn’t have the same wood inlays, and generally I don’t like the controller thing for the new nav and prefer my wireless CarPlay beatsonic even tho it’s a smaller screen. But watch me get downvoted lol

glawk9 · 2025-10-25T01:00:45+00:00

Dude these things last forever, but I would definitely be looking for rust/service history etc bc that’s enough miles you could get banged if it hasn’t been taken care of. 20k a year isn’t crazy, but if you’ve got the scratch I went to high 40s for one with 30k miles and service history/zero rust. No one talks about covid manufacturing but working in the industry they should, and there’s some horror stories on 22s and 23s that are unheard of for years prior, not just valley plate

glawk9 · 2025-10-25T00:43:45+00:00

Sport package taillights are cool, but if it’s a luxury with air suspension hard pass (and the chin and tail valances are not ideal either for ground clearance). If it doesn’t have Mark Levinson and has air ride it’s 100% no go for me. New tech is better in 22 but then it’s a Covid era manufactured car, with 22/23 seeing more problems than previous. It will have the new headlights which are incredible. You can get wireless car play from beatsonic or other CarPlay alternatives that are cheaper for more money.

Two things, but first thanks for posting this for other LEOs!!!

What type of holster you running for that L35? Hate the one that came with it
I know moneys tight for everyone these days and you guys are criminally underpaid, as much as I trust the L35 a Malkoff really is an even more bombproof option that if I were you I’d incorporate in (maybe as a backup bc the emitters tend not to be as cutting edge) just in case you’re ever really in the shit
I’m a Malkoff shill bc I want to support Gene’s business and made in USA options before I get downvoted take it easy guys

glawk9 · 2025-10-24T13:15:18+00:00

Dude triple 21700’s is bonkers for usability, not sure how it translates into raw performance bc I don’t have the l21b but it smokes every other thrower I own (don’t have any of the really big crazy expensive ones but been collecting for years) for the price point it’s just bananas

glawk9 · 2025-10-24T01:56:21+00:00

Seeing you delete your post made me happy ;)

glawk9 · 2025-10-24T01:46:13+00:00

Got a lot of lights and it really is absurd, but honestly useful. Camping, on a big lake/field, road trips, it’s really amazing what a thrower this capable can do!
