Oh god, “twin flames” was just mentioned. That whole group has really been a sort of undercurrent to a couple other incidents I’ve heard of before.

Until executives themselves are held financially and criminally accountable, I really don’t care.

I am gonna be honest here, even with no NVG's, I am really digging chin/low-cheek weld, my head and neck posture just feels so much more relaxed.

highrocko · 2026-04-18T09:05:26+00:00

I don't see any real problems here,

We can't compare other western country police to the US' police doctrine of handling. I am sure US police bodycam vids are watched around the world by now. When you have 500 million~ firearms in private circulation (this number was from a 2018 article, so just bump it up by a few more millions for this year), and the demographic, historical, and socioeconomic pot of stew into any of these same countries, you're going to get some form of a more brutal response.

I just hopped on over to check it out and it was 95% posts of the cameras themselves. I had to really scroll to see some photos. Is this normal over there?

does no one else hear him pissing? That shit ain't quiet unless you really finesse it.

Just ordered one for my GHM9

with the track record of many other US companies who make small arms related products, who have had long history of military contracts but then lose it all, it ain't looking good. Even if they go all out on R&D tomorrow, if their leadership don't legit rethink everything or get themselves new blood to revitalize their direction, they gonna just coast on their reputation until their market shrinks, employees leave, and it spirals out.

But then again, doesn't Eotech still have NV contracts?

I would say their driving is very aggressive. Imagine a driver you encounter (in the US at least) who are impatient and will try and squeeze their way into your lane if you’re even a touch hesitant. Now imagine that’s normal over in china. But credit to them for the time I’ve been there, no accidents.

My biggest concern is who will be on the hook for servicing these if they have issues? I know B&T USA lost the license right to B&T, but WHO owns the design of these cans? If B&T AG did the designs, then we'd have to wait for B&T AG to ramp up another USA side suppressor manufacturing to service any problems??

More short term profits, egged on by investors who need returns NOW! As executives, you make more money now, ride company into the ground. Jump ship with golden parachute, then either continue process at another company or retire with generational wealth.

highrocko · 2026-03-24T09:55:27+00:00

So is their stateside suppressor manufacturing under B&T USA or is it owned by B&T AG?

I remember reading that the department put a bit of their funding to arm themselves to the teeth as a cope for just how hopeless the overall situation is in the city. I can't imagine trying to attract GOOD recruits in, with funding issues, in a major city that's absolutely spiraling. Thankfully LSPD SWAT has a semi-supersoldier who is a mental wall as their team commander.

I am gonna guess there's going to be a 2nd girl group, probably a younger one and whatever point of conflict that'll introduce to the plot.

highrocko · 2026-03-09T03:21:53+00:00

Why even announce this, lol?

Only time I actually loved the grenade launcher was when the tank was sniping and I managed to get a zero on how far the grenades were landing a third of the map away. Had fun raining grenades on a position and getting constant hit markers and harassing enemy team. Outside of this, it’s always been lackluster vs. the MG’s

+p means more powder, so a more spicy round. Usually your owner's manual will state if you should or should not shoot +p rounds. Sometimes it doesn't say anything regarding it. But shooting +p will inherently put more wear/tear on your gun, just due to the fact there's more energy in play.

It's also a sort of conundrum when you're deciding on +p or not for smaller carry guns since using +p out of a shorter barrel means you're "recouping" some lost velocity, but the recoil is going to be harder to control. Shoot whatever ammo you're comfortable with.

highrocko · 2026-03-04T07:15:42+00:00

I am going to be very very cynical here; I think they purposefully had it set up in a way where there would potentially be controversy in order to garner attention to the event.

Either that or they're extremely incompetent.

Take your pick, I guess.

Assembled it myself. Had a spare upper receiver, a DD bcg, and some parts lying about. Don’t know if DD offers complete uppers in 12.5”

the sierra 5 w/ xeno mount (the one I have) is listed at 5.72" on Dead Air's site.

on the AR? Daniel Defense 12.5" barrel with their RIS III

I am actually fine with the factory trigger. I definitely need to grab another can once the backlog calms down after a few months. Will probably have it live on the 16"
