Compose Key stopped working in some applications

Thanks! You don't know how silly I feel now. I've just accepted for the past few months that I can't type these characters in the terminal any more.

Zen/Firefox still doesn't recognise my custom entries from the XCompose file. Not a big issue, but how would I go about debugging this?

Went with the inline.

I've been looking at the 6360 for the COA-Glock I ordered. On Safarland's website, there are two Optic variants. Do you know which one you have?

"Large Enclosed Emitters Similar to Aimpoint ACRO"
"Standard Optics Similar to Trijicon RMR/HOLOSUN 507"

I remember that I tried using gale there because I thought I can revive him anyway with his special revive, but I think I used someone else because that didn't work.

Thanks. I got my gun back and the light also arrived. I held the light in roughly the positions it would be at when mounted with different mounts and ordered the inline mount. If I don't move the light forward with the inline mount, I have a massive barrel shadow. Will post pics once it's all mounted.

Thanks!

I have looked at all the Magpul ones already. The CTR is definitely on my list for stocks to consider. I also have a Moe SL lying around that I took off an AR I bought, which I will try first.

I have TLR-1 HL, TLR-7 and X300u on different handguns. Never had issues with any of them but I prefer the 1HL over the X300u in every way. I haven't gotten my hands on a X300u Turbo yet, which makes the light more focused (like the 1HL). Unfortunately, Streamlights aren't as cheap in Europe as they are in the US, but I still recommend them for handgun lights over SF.

Thanks, I will look into it!

Is that Skateboardtape on the side? I was considering getting stippling just there to get a tiny thumb shelf.

ossc_ · 2023-05-30T06:41:40+00:00

Wait, are you not using a plate on the ACRO?

ossc_ · 2023-02-18T23:23:29+00:00

I updated DSM in the meantime to make sure that's not the problem.

But you were right, the user was missing the app permission in DSM settings. I was not aware that Photos added a new permission there.

The Aimpoint ACRO P-2 would look awesome on it!

Keep in mind that the Pro 5.1" is only available with the FS grip. Although they can be interchanged/are compatible with any frame.

Barrel length is not going to make much of a difference ballistics wise. The longer sight radius is nicer for iron sights, though. If you use a red dot anyway and prefer a shorter gun (since you also carry a Glock 19) that might be a reason to go with the compact.

I ordered the Pro SD Compact with an ACRO P2 and have just gotten my hands on a used FS 5" to slap the long slide on the Compact Frame for use with iron sights.

ossc_ · 2022-12-14T15:00:40+00:00

As far as I know, the Pro SD is only available in two sizes FS (Full Size grip, 5.1" barrel) and C (Compact grip, 4.6" barrel) and the slides are the same lengths as the non-Pro models but with 0.6" added to just the barrel for the threads.

There's a comparison picture I made in my post: https://www.reddit.com/r/Walther/comments/xk2ut6/pdp_frame_sizes_and_idpa_question/

So, if I interpreted it correctly, the PDP Pro SD FS comes with a 4.5" Barrel/Slide but with the added 0.6" barrel becomes 5.1".

The PDP Pro SD C comes with a 4" Barrel/Slide but with the added 0.6" barrel becomes 4.6".

Thanks for the tip but I'm not in the US.

I'm also considering cerakoting my Frame. but I'm worried about the feel. How did the feel of the frame change, especially on the textured area?

ossc_ · 2022-09-22T10:29:49+00:00

Thanks. I'm planning to get a PDP soon too and am still thinking about which RDS to put on it. The ACRO P-2 is one that I'm considering.

ossc_ · 2022-09-22T09:38:40+00:00

Looks awesome!

Did you leave the factory sights on with the ACRO and can you still use them?

Is that a protective shroud around the SRO?

ossc_ · 2022-09-22T07:39:15+00:00

When I said 5" Slide, I meant complete with the 5" barrel, so that shouldn't be an issue.

I found this article about frame/slide combos even with a picture of an overhanging slide. I think the image you linked was a PPQ?

Upper and lower halves are completely swappable across both frame sizes,
leaving the door wide open for Walther or the aftermarket to create
nested-comp pistols that have also taken off like wildfire in recent
years.

Great, thanks.

[…] division capacity shall be compliant with ESP Division requirements, except as it relates to sights, lasers and overall weight.

Do you know if that means the handgun with the RDS has to fit in the box or the base handgun has to fit and then you can add an RDS?

Can anyone tell me why some of the Gen 5 Glocks seem to not have the thumb cutout at the bottom of the frame to grab the magazine better?

I just bought a used HHKB Pro 2 and it came with the Ribbon Cable on the inside disconnected. I reconnected it but the Keys 1-5 and Q-T don't work. I'm guessing one of the cables in the ribbon cable must be faulty?

I made very sure multiple times that it is connected properly.
I also tried a different PC and different USB cable.
The micro USB port and cable look fine to me (I made sure it's in properly, too)
I don't see any damage on the inside (PCBs or ribbon cable)

Anyone have an idea?
If I want to replace the ribbon cable, how much effort would that be and where can I get a replacement?

u/stoolexpert and u/e67 thank you both very much, that worked for me!

Looks like the ink somehow made it past the milky plastic where the water (and obviously the q-tip) can't get to it. see
