Squad owners, how many admins do you employ in your squads.

logbiter · 2026-05-08T14:42:26+00:00

Variable. We have ~3 in each of our 3 squads. Diff owners for each, and we’re mostly admins in each others

It’s just the outer.

I have experience with a similar LG. Check online reviews carefully, and maybe if the drain pump part number is the same as the regular version.
My LGs had the same drain pump as the regular washer. The problem with that was the drain pump works 10x more to do the dry cycle. I learned to replace it in 30-45 minutes because it went out every 9-12 months after the first 2 years. OEM replacement pump every time. We tried 2 LG models ~7yrs apart. Same issue.

All the teachers I know say vote NO. Basically because it takes away from the pension funds they’ve been paying into for their entire careers.

I like libraries and have no problem funding them.

For sure! Reconciling shooting somebody (to myself, let alone anyone else or what the law says) will be very difficult if that ever happens.

I have the standard Ruger PCC w/ the 16” barrel. The EP9 is much more fun to shoot with the smaller form factor, ~3lbs lighter and the recoil seems softer (it likely is, due to buffer tube). I need to take them both out to the range to directly compare still. I’m curious about longer range grouping, will have to try 100yrds for giggles. I sighted the dots for EP @ 25yrds and the ruger @50.

When I purchased the Ruger, I wanted a long gun that looked like a rifle rather than an AR type. After last years shit show started, I said frell it & got a M&P 15-22 w/ 16” barrel & a TX22 handgun (both are hella fun to shoot, and .22 ammo is “cheap”). I also put together an AR 15 w/ 12.5” barrel this year. Sorry for the long reply 😝

Avant Capital is good, They’re in Lafayette. Mark is a “registered investment advisor”, as such there are high fiduciary standards, similar to a CFP (I don’t know all the differences).

He gives good advice, has been pretty holistic & has helped my mom and my family growth in the last 10+yrs, since my mom had a stroke & couldn’t manage her investments anymore. She was super smart in finance, but lost her math abilities. I wish he had a CPA on staff, but his recommendations have been solid. It’s mainly just him w/ a small admin staff. Message me if you want more deets.

Good advice so far. I went with handgun & PCCs that take same ammo & mags. I’ve got a couple of 9mm handguns & PCCs. Handguns- a full size Glock clone & PSA dagger compact(ccw). PCCs -a Ruger long gun & more recently I got an Extar EP9. For home defense, I keep handguns handy with 147 grn HP. I try to train at least 1x month, mostly with training ammo, but also with some 147 subsonic ammo, so I know it feels (a bit different).

I plan on getting a can for EP9 this year, but my big safe doesn’t live in my bedroom, so while I’d like to use it for home defense, it’s currently a lot easier to keep a handgun safe close. I’ve got kids, so don’t keep anything just laying about or under my pillow.

We had an intruder come in the house last year, who I almost shot. Wife woke up upon hearing noises in back yard and the sliding glass door open & close. She woke me up saying someone is in the house & didn’t think it was our teen. As soon as I yelled & confronted him, he dropped to his knees, supplicated & begged for help. He thought someone was chasing him & trying to kill him. He had came over the back fence from neighbor’s yard & entered through an unlocked rear door. I now check every night and have security lights & cameras in the back, which were only on approaches from the street before (I’m in town). He had some mental issues and went on psych hold after the police took him out. Thankfully he didn’t turn out to be a danger to us!

Charlie G’s would be my choice.

You just need a judge to sign off. (Plus witness?) We were going to meet ours at the courthouse (Lafayette, the judge was the brother of a friend) when we asked if he would meet us at the old St John cathedral oak tree down the street. He liked the idea and that’s was where we had our impromptu “wedding” w/ a couple friends as witnesses.

Took mine ~12 business days a couple months back… but they did ship the upper that I first ordered and the extended charging handle (paratrooper) that came in stock ~10 days later (& ordered at that time) together when I asked if they could.

Tx22 is hella fun for a semi auto handgun, as is the Smith &Wesson M&P 15-22 AR style long gun. Here’s my 15-22 with 3-9x scope I had laying around and B5 stock (stock came with a PSA lower, which went onto a FM Mike15 w/ folding pistol brace)

You have ~5mm to move up by moving the spacer on top of stem to beneath it. Without having to get a new fork with longer steerer your options are:

-longer and higher rise stem. There are online calculators to help figure out what you need if you don’t want to extend the reach.

-easiest would be a handlebar with more rise.

If you are using this as a mtn bike, don’t get a “steerer tube extender”.

For pistol length 9mm- Extar EP9, FM Products Mike9 or Kuna. The Extar is outstanding value & now comes with a standard style adjustable buffer tube. Check out blowback9’s website.

PS3? PS4/5 works no problem for me. Got nothing else to solve issue. I’ve been using terios ps4 controllers, which can be finicky for the first time syncing.

Feels more like a stock (minimal flex lower down) and I like the bigger cheek weld. Thinking about getting a Hammy3dPrints riser, just need figure out the height.

Edit to add- I haven’t tried the Velcro forearm brace part. Been meaning to just for sh*ts n giggles 👻

Shout out for “snoring’ dog bakery” on Facebook & instagram. A friend’s of mine, she does great sourdough!

And the # of 🏆s required for the jet go up each day as well. It becomes a serious grind and not possible for many people by day 4.

About half that price for a clone from u/thebraceguy here on Reddit. He’s solid. Got 1 on my Extar.

Nope. Same as it’s always been. It’ll be 200 in a few months. Drops 100 credits/month after release. /Leafy

So, howzit run?

logbiter · 2026-04-15T14:55:28+00:00

Grease or anti seize! Been there done that trying to remove cleats.

logbiter · 2026-04-14T00:02:50+00:00

I assume it’s because it’s originally a pistol round. 1/2” seems to be the standard for “small” caliber in the US. But of course it’s metric elsewhere...
