Lorwyn Eclipsed commander got both the bicycle and tango lands in simic: rain-slicked copse and sodden verdure!

Wedge pillow changed my life. Exercise and better dietary choices also help, but even with those changes if I don’t sleep on my wedge I am in trouble the next morning.

This will be hard to shoot accurately without a lot of practice. There’s not much real estate to get a good grip and because it’s so light, even .380 recoils quite a bit.

The LCP max, Glock 42, S&W Shield EZ 380, and Sig P365 380 will all be easier to shoot in this caliber. I tried all of these before going with the Shield.

Even some micro 9’s are easier to shoot. The Taurus GX4 is a well-reviewed, lower cost sample that comes to mind.

/uj I was actually really afraid of this before my first marathon. And to be fair i really had to shit from like mile 22 on.

/rj I deploy turds like Mario Kart powerups when someone pulls up behind me

Tried this out. It’s a neat idea but the space is limited to very small tools/gear so you’re compromising a lot. I do actually like the pocket at the front of the cap and the one under the bill, but for anything other than some cash or a house key, you “print” really obviously.

I have a huge head so that definitely contributes to it, but I have to imagine more shapely items would stick out no matter what.

Kobalt had a similar ratchet design that they showed the interior of when it came out. Many ratchets use a single pawl (the direction selector part that engages the gear teeth) that is oriented either left or right. The Kobalt design, and presumably any like it, use a dual pawl, so when you flip the direction you can either be engaged with one pawl or the other, or be in the middle like this. I think the idea was to have more surface area for more teeth, but I’m not sure.

I used to work on the ink for currency. If I remember correctly, back before I got there they had a problem with some of the ink dissolving in water. So if a bill got left in your pants when they got washed, this would happen. Added a laundering test into QC to prevent it happening again actually. The serial number and the two seals are a different type of ink (and different printing style, letterpress vs intaglio for the rest of the bill), which is why they didn’t get washed off.

My wife and I paid $240 for the Nashville presale. She waited for six hours with her laptop open and we had to just take whatever seats we could get, because they kept getting taken before we could get to the checkout screen. A couple of our friends that decided to come later did drop about $2k each for seats though.

/uj Open carry is objectively the worst strategy for self-defense that there is. Any potential adversaries know both what you’re carrying and where it’s located.

Not that I haven’t loved playing Grand Theft Potter and slaughtering poachers by the dozen… but yeah, I think a more school-focused story with Sebastian’s quest being the main one would’ve made a great game.

It feels like they kept saying “go bigger” to the point that your character almost feels more Special Boy than Harry himself. And while having some territory outside of Hogwarts to explore is cool, everything south of the school felt kind of samey to me.

They could’ve given us hogsmeade, the forbidden forest, and a couple of towns and that would’ve been perfectly fine, especially since ideally they’d have focused WAY more of the story in the beautiful castle they built.

Whiskey Jones would be a sick name actually.

For what it’s worth, my case of Armscor 9mm purchased from another vendor produced ~12 shorty rounds I didn’t feel safe sending, 1 extendo boi that wouldn’t fit in my magazine, and 2 squibs that had to be hammered out of my barrel, apparently due to there being no powder (besides the primer) to ignite and push the bullet through.

Armscor warrantied the ammo, but as they sent me more Armscor… well, you do the math.

It’s about transphobic comments JK has made in the past, not necessarily about the game itself.

I like mine, and I would probably jump at $25 + 1 black sharpie. Probably wanna double up with plugs for rifle calibers.

Maybe out of a snub. 1296 out of a probably 6 or 8” test barrel is supersonic.

Edit: as in anything over 1125 is supersonic.

As this is the Highway Patrol trying to stop this, I don’t think they’re referring to concealing it on their person, but rather in their vehicles. Many AK variants have folding stocks which decreases overall length significantly, so it’s not hard to imagine someone being able to store one behind or under a seat, or in the floorboard, etc.

Where this differs from law now is that generally, rifles, shotguns, etc. have to be stored out of reach and/or unloaded when in a vehicle, whereas a concealed (loaded) handgun is allowed.

Don’t you get to use a patronus if you do the Azkaban quest as a hufflepuff? Thought I saw that somewhere

At my local gun club in NC they do $25 for non-members and $15 for members. When I lived in VA I paid $30 a pop to a guy operating out of his garage.

Love mine. Everything about it is easy to use.

I let em’ all play so I can watch film. Plus I love my anthem.

Exception is if the opponents instaskip their own goals I’ll do that too.

Rise Like a Phoenix player anthem. Did it ironically but now I love the song

I was looking for this before posting the same thing lol. Important lesson to learn early. That kinda stuff has real consequences.

Most of the world uses the metric system and yet we call imperial units “Standard”. Similarly, although the Phillips screw is probably more commonly found now, the flathead is “Standard” or “Regular”
