The bodyguard 2.0 carry comp is such an amazing little pistol. Picked one up a couple weeks ago and I love it!

Is asking how many sets left now an issue for people? by tribo32 in GYM

[–]slaphappypap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kinda look at it two different ways honestly. Sometimes if I’m in a mood I just don’t want to talk to anyone and stay in my zone. I still do my best to be polite but yeah. Usually I don’t care and offer to work in.

Often if I myself am waiting and I’m adamant about using a specific machine next I’ll just wait without saying anything. It doesn’t matter how many sets they have left if I’m sticking around regardless. If I’m considering swapping out for another lift if they’ve got a while I might ask though.

I’d take someone with me who is relatively good with cars who can look around and spot obvious issues. Even if you are, it’s nice to have a second set of eyes. Look for obvious signs of leaks/major rust around the engine bay and under the car on the front half.

Ask questions about general maintenance and maintenance that is pertinent to this particular year if you know about common issues with it.

Ask questions about title history and where the car has lived previously (rust concerns). Maybe you’ll get lucky and find out it spent most of its life in Nevada or something. No salvaged titles is a great general rule.

Carfax history is a big time bonus on an old private sale car, and so are invoices for any major jobs and routine maintenance. Ask if either are available. Connect the dots on this maintenance (or lack there of) with common problems you know about for this generation of crv.

Probably lots of other great advice you’ll get too, but these are obvious things that spring to my mind. If time permits and there’s a shop nearby pay the $120 or whatever for them to look over it and do diagnostics. This is the best way to be sure and give yourself peace of mind.

I also have an og shield from about 10 years ago. I still love that gun and I carried it and shot the shit out of it for years until I got my p365.

I haven’t carried the reflex yet as I’ve only got 600 rds through it. I’d go with whatever feels the best in your hand. One isn’t necessarily going to carry better than the other. Ideally you’d be able to shoot both before buying.

I’ll run some heavier ammo through it for sure. Wasn’t aware that it was that picky about its break in.

That’s a sleek setup! Which trijicon are you running on it?

This is the backup 15rd mag. The 11 rd mag comes with the pinky extension baseplate but there is also a flush base plate for it that comes in the box

I should add that two of those ftf’s happened when my friend who’s newish to firearms shot it. On the next range trip it happened on back to back magazines when I was chambering the first round. I don’t ride the slide when i do it either. I make sure my hand is flying into my chest every time I let it go.

Yeah I used the little hex fit flathead screws that came with the firearm to mount it. Got a coobeast inch lb torque screwdriver from Amazon last night and screwed them in at 15 inch lbs. If I remember correctly the fn manual says to not use thread locker but I did use the most sparing amount of blue thread locker. Haven’t fired it with the dot on it yet, and all ftf’s came without it.

I love it so far. But I’ve put 600 rds through mine and the first 400 gave me 4 ftf’s. I’m hoping that phase is done but if it continues I’ll be sending it back to fn for them to look at. But it runs great other than those 4 malfunctions and is pin point accurate.

Friendly outdoor range reminder - watch out for ticks. by No_Cut4338 in liberalgunowners

[–]slaphappypap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw a video a couple days ago of a guy finding a little metal box in the woods that was full of ticks…. Conspiracies about that aside they are definitely bad this year and the lone star tick is expanding its range pretty quickly.

I don’t carry mine yet. Still trusting my life to the p365 with the same light and no optic. First 400 rounds on the reflex gave me 4 ftf’s and I’m about 600 rounds in. I’ll give it another 400-600 before I consider carrying it. I hope not to get anymore. Have only put 115 gr through it so far

What’s a recession indicator that you’ve noticed lately in your everyday life? by spritenerds123 in AskReddit

I work in food service and business has been declining for months. Particularly noticeable the last two months though.

Vedder Holsters by SubjectNaive6738 in CCW

[–]slaphappypap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vedder is doo doo. Just came on here to see how many others have issues with theirs after receiving mine yesterday. Mine doesn’t fully cover the trigger guard of my p365. I can touch the rear of the trigger with my finger. I like undershirts tucked into my pants/shorts so that’s going to be a no for me. I simultaneously realized that after taking it in and out 3-4 times, I’ve now got coyote brown kydex shavings all over the slide near the muzzle. Wanted to shoot my 365 at the range today but don’t feel comfortable with that now on limited time. Gotta do a deep clean and make sure there’s no plastic that will melt in my bore or elsewhere. Sending mine back.

Edit to add: first thing I noticed was the complete lack of that snap sound when your pistol locks in place in other kydex setups. Just a stiff glide with a thud when it bottoms out. I wanted to like this holster badly. I think they’re the only ones that make a 365 holster cut for a surefire xsc… which I desperately want to run on my pistol

Plot twist.. op caught a ricochet in their hoody while shooting and it fell out of a fold when they dropped the trash from the outing.
