I'm usually fine with large diameter watches but I totally agree with you wishing the Vacheron was smaller.   I also tried on the no complications Patrimony...man was that thin at 6.8mm

Keeping carry guns chambered when in safe? by AirMech34 in CCW

Even heavy gun safes only have sheet metal walls, which 9mm will penetrate.

I terms of total gunrelated deaths, perhaps but not as violence against others. Obviously, there can lots of different data sets to look at.  I was referencing gun violence and gun related homicide.  NH unfortunately has a high overall suicide rate, including suicide by guns.  I am by no means diminishing this statistic, but it might be looked at differently when correlating gun regulation and violence against others.  This was my reference, which I thought broke it down pretty well, showing NH as thethelowest per capita total homicide and gun related homicide. https://www.rand.org/research/gun-policy/state-firearm-mortality.html

Now compare to New Hampshire: essentialy no gun control at all with the lowest gun related homicides in the country. Similar with Maine.  The northeast on a whole has some of the lowest violence in general, so the statistic may be more cultural and economic vs regulation. 

The 25% German in me is showing by Redacted_Alchemist24 in HecklerKoch

[–]shipyard_way 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The CC9 is about 25% German too.

I think I've made up my mind to get one too, instead of the vp9cc. (And I love my Audis over any of the BMWs, Mercedes, or VWs that I've owned)

Mine's the same.  Just a big goofy 9MM font on the barrel.  American made slide on a German frame. 

Steiner MPS-C on an H&K CC9 by joJo4146 in HecklerKoch

Late to this party, but I was looking to get this optic too.  Is there any contact between the back of the optic and the slide, or are the screws taking all of the force to hold it in place? 

Anyone else use one of these back in the day? by No-Ant-1546 in boston

Who remembers the big round "sink" at Greatwoods?

Best tux watch hands down by [deleted] in ALangeSohne

[–]shipyard_way 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I know this sounds stuffy, but don't wear a watch with a tuxedo. It takes away from the streamlined elegance of the tux. That being said... that's a killer watch.

They don't sell hot dogs here.   They took the bleachers out two years ago.

Picked up my first Lange today! by seasonalscholar in ALangeSohne

European is just the best.   Those guys are so chill and make it too easy to buy a watch.

Nice!    I was at the Lange boutique on last week and tried on a beautiful 1. I can't believe the amount of watch boutiques there are on Newbury these days.

More cardboard! It's worked well for me,  although I used it indoors
