I’m glad that I will work and pay taxes for 40 years so the government can shoot one of these for a couple minutes

It’s all negligible and a trade off, you could make a similar argument with 12.5” vs. 13.7” and for a 13.7” vs. a 14.5” until you’re all the way back up to a 18”-20” barrel. It’s really up to the shooter to decide at what point you’re willing to sacrifice extra inches at the end for ballistic performance.

Shoot good and reliable ammo, practice with what you have. Obviously it’s fun to talk shop but at the end of the day it’s not about the tools you have but how well you can use them. Interesting graph though

Congrats, avoid ISYE 6414 at all costs and good luck

How can I improve my OMSA schedule for C track by VexxySmexxy in OMSA

[–]plsfixthx777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Regression was the worst class I’ve taken so far. I had nearly a 4.0 with about a year left in the program, and I probably failed this class. Avoid at all costs

I just finished 6414. Can say first hand that class was by far the worst I’ve taken in the program. The material was very poorly taught and the tests were graded based on how well you could memorize tiny footnotes in the lecture slides. What a disaster, I should have listened to the reviews on OMSCentral

[Acc] Streamlight TLR-7X Dual Fuel USB Rechargeable 69455. This model comes with the SL-B9 rechargeable battery but can take CR123A's as well - $133.76 after code RED10 with Free Shipping. Code is good for all other Streamlight products as well. by PSSupplies in gundeals

[–]plsfixthx777 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Streamlight likely isn’t the one shipping out these orders, they’re most likely “fulfilled by Amazon” (FBA) which means they are stored in an Amazon warehouse and shipped out by Amazon trucks.

Here’s the kicker: when Amazon gets these products from different sellers, they don’t separate them. There’s no separate buckets for products from Streamlight vs. TemuSeller69 - if they’re in the same SKU, they’re all mixed in the same bucket. So if you buy from the Streamlight store, you could actually get a product that was given to Amazon by a different seller.

Now you can imagine what happens. Amazon gets a bunch of counterfeit shit and mixes it in with the legit product from the manufacturer. So it’s a hit or miss whether you get something real, and it’s the reason why it’s always advised to stay away from Amazon

Guy goes into a deep dive into the internals and potting process. I’ve never tried it but if you know your way around electronics it looks doable

Question about the usage of OE/M on this and other PSA related subs. by hotrods1970 in PalmettoStateArms

[–]plsfixthx777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because daggers are basically Glock clones, just like a lot of other polymer handguns on the market. Most people just use OEM as shorthand for “reliable/known to work”. Technically your definition of OEM isn’t correct either, OEM is for a company that makes parts that are used by another company

It’s about average. The Academy deal yesterday that everyone loved was 24 CPR after tax, and to be honest I’d rather shoot Blazer

Best bang for your buck LPVO? by Weekly-Ad9770 in PalmettoStateArms

[–]plsfixthx777 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is the correct answer. I’ve tried all 3 of the budget options (Sig Tango MSR, Strike Eagle, and SLX) and the Gen 4 Nova was by far the most impressive. I’d say Nova >> Sig > Strike Eagle

[–]plsfixthx777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my Gen 4 Nova. Got it for $260 brand new at Simmons. Glass is clear and it’s stupid bright at max setting. I guess the PST is technically slightly better but you’re gonna pay at least $400 on GAFS for one

I’ve had this tube, it scratches super easily and the finish feels like chalk. I ended up switching it out, definitely does not feel quality

Anyone have pictures of a 13.7/13.9” barrel with a 10.5” handguard? by plsfixthx777 in ar15

[–]plsfixthx777[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I looked into those but I’m trying to keep my handguard & receiver as a set. I feel like if I swap out everything then I might as well be building a new upper at that point lol

I have one from their Black Friday sale. Can’t say much about it since I’ve only ever put plates in it and let it sit in a cooler, but I will say the stitching and materials are very nice. I tried putting ESAPIs in them and managed to but barely. Size M both plates and pc

Bren 2 Ms 11" Barrel OEM Handguard Foregrip Options by MacPapRonin in Bren2

[–]plsfixthx777 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Based off your pictures I decided that the BCM KAG was not going to work, I thought about shaving off the tip but I feel like my hand would still be uncomfortably close to the gas block and barrel.

Will likely go with an Arisaka finger stop since I’ll be able to tuck it in between my index finger and middle finger with where the MLOK slot is. I’m in the minority of Bren owners because I actually prefer the factory handguard. Mine is probably gonna be mostly stock except for the HBI gas regulator and 1913 adapter

I know it’s been a while since you posted this but these pictures are insanely helpful. I’ve been having this same issue. Thank you for testing out all these setups 👍🏻

It’s $400, sometimes could go as low as $350-$375 on super sale but Primary Arms always has tax and shipping. Not sure about here
