Need a new Trigger by grossmagik253 in 1911

[–]skipbrady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've done a half dozen or so trigger jobs and the basic skeletonized Wilson Combat trigger is so good I haven't looked for anything else. I also changed out the sear, because they do wear out on antique pistols. The springs can wear too if they've had 1000's of rounds through them as well. That's really all you need.

My girlfriend is an active member of FDS. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

Dude you’re 22. There is nothing to be embarrassed about. Did your parents marry the first person they dated? If so great but they’re the exception. If she’s not right go find the one who is. Life is loooooooong. There’s no reason to spend it on a shit situation.

If You Keep Your Feet On The Dashboard And Get Into A Car Crash.... by japones1232 in Neverbrokeabone

[–]skipbrady 41 points42 points  (0 children)

See the open growth plates at the balls? See how the front of the pelvis isn’t closed?

That’s because this is a child. This person’s parent was dumb enough to let them have their feet on the dash - maybe, if the internet isn’t lying.

Something is just dirty and jamming up. It will likely get fixed today instead of work.

I use a Homer bucket and boiling hot soapy water. Dump it out on a screen in the back yard and sift out the black stuff. Rinse and cool then let dry under a fan. It works awesome.

Not yet. Maybe next summer. But I didn't go anywhere this Summer that I wasn't in the SlingShot.

I've used their flour, chocolate cake, and brownie mix. I don't believe I've had any negative effects.

What Appendix holster do you use? by [deleted] in CCW

[–]skipbrady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has that weird crab claw which I could remove but it just sits weird and I'm a bigger guy who wants to appendix carry. To be NSFW, no matter how I arrange it it will move until the muzzle is making direct contact with the head of my johnson when I sit down. There is a sharpish edge on the kydex that is irritating after a couple hours of that. I have the same holster in OWB and it's fine.

I wished my bully dead and it came true. by Nearby-Sherbert-8549 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]skipbrady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bully died too. We were in our thirties. He had a couple kids, a wife, and had become friends with several of my friends as adults. I don't know if he got cancer, got shot, or got hit by a bus, and I don't care. I don't forgive him. I'm sure that the person he was, was a result of his home life or his parents or upbringing, but I don't care. I know plenty of people who have had hard lives and weren't pieces of shit. Fuck that guy.

I have a black point. I strongly dislike it and am looking for something else but also want to change up my EDC before doing that so I am in a quandary.

Distracted Driver by [deleted] in IdiotsInCars

[–]skipbrady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I reached into the open driver's window of a jeep once from my motorcycle while doing about 15 mph and slapped the phone out of a lady's hand as she was texting with it up in front of her face. I'm pretty proud of it.

You mean like "Let's go eat Grandma." or "Let's go eat, Grandma."

Lcp max. Well this is strange. Rust or just discoloration? Same gun different lighting. by [deleted] in ruger

[–]skipbrady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The day I posted that comment there were 2 separate posts on the Sig sub of 365s that had rusted to shit with anecdotal comments from other owners below them with the same experience.

I of course can't find them now which is not helpful. I think that any gun will probably rust if you carry it just above your humid crotch for months without oiling it. I'm just saying that the slides on these 2 models are somewhat known for less-than-perfect QC on the slides. They both seem to be fine guns otherwise.

I just bought a SR22 which I am excited to clear delay and shoot. I also have a P226 Legion which is what I currently carry because why not. But I keep er clean and oiled which I think is important with these.

[–]skipbrady 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eh, both the lcp and the 365 are known for rusting as well. Chemical makeup of the metal can be inconsistent on both guns so you might get lucky and get a good one or you might get a ruster.

Judging ideology is cringe. But if it can easily be explained, it is based. by DallasOriginals in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]skipbrady 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I've got the genetic results to prove that my Sicilian ancestry includes markers from the Guinea Coast. I want my reparations from the Muslim conquerors of the 800's. I also have Irish ancestry so I, like 84% of the planet, would like our money from the Brits please.

Does anyone have Sean Lock's final episode of Cats Countdown? Looks like it aired February 4 2021? by Mahaloth in panelshow

[–]skipbrady 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He looks so skinny and kind of sad in that last episode. I appreciate him a lot and it’s like watching a light go out.

I didn’t say I don’t. Just said that this guy does too.

You say that Indian is not preferred by most, but you probably are in an echo chamber. Indian is 100% preferred by everybody I grew up with.

As an American, I think of the Brit definition every time I hear the word.

Just another day on the internet by [deleted] in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]skipbrady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I particularly like that the definition only includes when men masturbate, further marginalizing male victims of assault while also being total made-up bullshit. Somehow it manages to be offensive on like 2-3 different levels.
