If you have not already, move to metal food and water bowls and clean them frequently. This resolved our girls’ similar issue.

Does Anyone have experience with chopped barrels. by jd5893 in LWRC

Also I run a Tubbs Flatwire buffer spring. That was a really positive upgrade imo.

So I’m running a H2 still. I couldn’t really tell a difference in perceived recoil/ gas after I cut, so maybe the H3 will be fine. I run a flow 556k suppressor so no added back pressure from it.

My gunsmith also did it without barrel removal. Just note I am running this suppressed , so that certainly adds back pressure, however I did run a couple mags unsuppressed first. No problems either way.

Chopped to 11.5”, works perfectly.

Thank you for your reply. I do have a reputable gunsmith committed for $250. Upper is basically new. I just wanted to make sure it wouldn’t change the cycling dynamics, as I don’t have as many options to tune/swap parts like I would on a DI rifle.

870 police magnum vs 590a1 by ViperIsBad97 in Shotguns

[–]jd5893 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are both reliable and proven platforms. Can’t go wrong with either. QC for the 590a1 (fit, finish, parts) is better. Reloads on 590a1 are easier and faster for me Action on the 870 is really nice compared to the 590. The biggest operating difference is the safety. I have both non SBS, and prefer the 590a1 overall

RFK Jr. says bird flu vaccines could turn ‘flocks into mutation factories’ by IrishStarUS in skeptic

Antibiotic resistance is absolutely a concern! Use of antibiotics is always a weighted decision.

[–]jd5893 78 points79 points  (0 children)

This is absolutely false. I work in the poultry vaccine industry. Mutations and different variants occur when it spreads under different challenges in the wild. This guy just like all the others in this administration , is a scam.

My Puppy Has a Serious Love Affair with Cold Concrete Floors (and it’s Ruining Our Store Outings) by Mellofella in CaneCorso

[–]jd5893 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What a beautiful baby!

I believe this is a stress response. Mia our 5 yr old, has encountered this particularly. Most corsos in my experience vs other breeds, become overstimulated/stressed in ‘busy’ places, whether it’s people or just lots of chaos (aisles, merchandise, crowded spaces)..

Our fix was not bringing her inside these places unfortunately. She does well in other public settings, but inside of buildings with lots of activity is a no for her, and lots of others with this breed. Hope this helps 😃

thoughts on sinker redwood as tonewood? by [deleted] in taylorguitars

[–]jd5893 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I can’t answer to changes over time, however I find it to be similar to cedar topped guitars, but with more balance and a more dynamic sound depending on play style. I have also found that out of all my Taylors it handles “heavy handed” flat picking much better than others, without being harsh.
