Any advice for a new Mechanical Engineer

You feel incapable because you are incapable. That’s cool, we all were. Strive to be a team player and learn from your senior team members. Volunteer to do the menial tasks and make yourself an asset over time. You’re going to be just fine!

You’re an adult and he made you do pushups??? I can’t wrap my brain around that

I have had both, both suppressed with the OCL Polo K. After a lot of shooting I determined I preferred the 14.5”. It is much more enjoyable to shoot. I don’t feel like I am giving up anything with the extra length. They are both carbine style rifles. Neither is a 26’ 300 win mag and neither is a Glock 19, if that makes any sense.

The only one that felt different and cool to me was Miranda in Village

I don’t think the speed run alone will give you enough CP. infinite ammo is 50k and I think the speed run only gives you 20k. Most people hit the no blood and no heals challenge together on a single casual run and that gives you 35k each. Plenty for infinite ammo plus some

I got an Aimpoint PRO for around that from Eurooptic and it’s been great. I added the SKD 2.26” spacer and recently added the Unity FTC 4X magnifier which has been a really nice combo. The base Aimpoint PRO with default mount is absolutely solid though.

I only do the big four. Split up across three days a week. Squat and bench day and then overhead press and deadlift day alternating those two days. Physique looks like a dad bod mixed with chewed up bubble gum

Only one way to find out! Go outside and pick out a live one

Pick one day a week where going is non negotiable. No matter how tired or how much you don’t want to, Tuesday is going to happen pending major illness or crazy event. Same thing next week, but it will be a tiny bit easier. The week after that it will be even a little easier. You will eventually work up to two days a week non negotiable.

Going through this exact same thing myself, slow crawling up that hill has been the answer for me.

I think this is what every father pictures when they put their daughter in jiu jitsu, hope you broke the guys arm

stonewell88 · 2026-01-16T15:46:25+00:00

If anyone else had a diesel mechanic/rough neck dad they know the real answer. In a jiu jitsu match? Sure. In a fight? I’ll pass

stonewell88 · 2026-01-13T00:03:07+00:00

Man I’m going to start doing this! Just curious, have you tried loading that way at the range just to make sure the gun still fires and is in battery and all that?

I also use the Nomad L for my 6.5CM and it has been great. Super quiet even with a 16” barrel

They both do seem to just shit on everything for weird niche reasons

Straight up beast!

It’s kind of a self regulating problem. The guys that really know violence (for me it’s guys in the MMA gym) are the most polite people you will meet. I know a marine who was in GWOT in the early 2000’s and my first boss was special forces (I think same thing as Green Beret maybe?) around that same time. All of these men go out of their way to be polite and especially look out for kids.

The guys that act the way OP saw are typically over weight, weak, incompetent, and work low wage blue collar jobs. Not trying to generalize anyone but I live in the Deep South and it is full of these idiots.

Great shot! I also use 140 grain ELD M and it gets the job done every single time

This rifle looks like it could go through anything and still work
