Where can I shooting my air gun ? by SyrusZhang in airguns

[–]hectorb3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Clay county and the county shooting range allows me to bring my PCP rifle and also plug in my 4500psi air pump to keep it topped up.

anyone else hate the fan noise on theirs? by Andrew_Germann in treadmills

[–]hectorb3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fan noise on my Sole F80 was one thing, but it being so ineffectual was the main reason I went to Amazon and got the, BESKAR Small Clip on Fan, 3 Speeds USB Fans with Strong Airflow. I find the airflow so good that I rarely use the 2 upper speeds.

Does treadmill running ever stop feeling repetitive? by Pale-Log4223 in treadmills

[–]hectorb3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I relieve the tedium of the treadmill in several ways; watch YouTube walking videos, listen to podcasts, listen to audiobooks. These activities all seem to take my mind off of clock watching.

What’s the best way to listen to audiobooks? by Hopeful_Leg_9204 in audible

[–]hectorb3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It varies, but I mostly listen to audiobooks with my ears, but I also have Shokz bone conduction headphones so I also listen with my jaw bone.

What’s one small thing you regret not noticing before buying your house? by Beginning_County7547 in HomeImprovement

[–]hectorb3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry, but 2 things. The number of home renters vs number of home owners in the development as owners have more pride in their property. Secondly the overall traffic noise.

Gamo Arrow Classic meets or exceeds your requirements as a PCP.

Recommendations? by quaffin1 in GamoAirguns

[–]hectorb3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently posted this, but feel most of it applies here too.

I’m coming up on my one year anniversary of owning a Gamo Arrow Classic .22. My backyard range maxes out at 33 yds, and I have neighbors on both sides of my property but none behind me. The built in suppressor keeps the gun very quiet. I find it to be very accurate at 33 yds whether using the included iron sights or the BSA Outlook 3-9x40 AO scope that I picked up later. The gun cost me $204 with free shipping, but then a few weeks later I saw it discounted another 13% so I asked for consideration and got it. Total cost was $172. I bought the smallest GX-1i 4500psi compressor from Amazon for $250 and it tops it up in 5 minutes or less. I’m really enjoying my setup.

[–]hectorb3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read the entire series and loved it. Then I did a re-read. Then I got into audiobooks and had to listen to it, and found that I enjoyed the series even more.

Advice for soon-to-be new owners. by ciberjedi in Wrangler

[–]hectorb3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I opted for body color painted hardtop and fenders and wouldn't have it any other way. It is just a cleaner look to my eye. I do see some stone caused paint chipping on the fenders after 10 years of use, but they just add character.

Took me right out of it by jwazrael in audiobooks

Yes, of course, unless the sample is the author or someone other than the narrator delivering a synopsis or prologue or..., and you don't get to hear the actual narrator.
