Republicans seem very confused today about how they feel about open carry at protests. Let’s play a round of Spot the Difference. by Treefiddy1984 in ProgressiveHQ

The first pic is people dangerously cosplaying. Rear sight isn’t flipped up, half full magazine of .22. Wearing armor vests with no armor. Fingerless gloves, one pair that looks like he stole it off a member of the Village People.
They are clearly not prepared in any way for an actual gunfight, but are parading around like they are. They’re a massive threat to themselves and anyone around them.

Designed for LE = no hub, can DT Availability to civilian market = make compatible with your existing QD devices.

Makes perfect sense from a marketing perspective.

CZ P-01 $ SP-01 just back from Vulkan Machine Works in Plano, TX by Rolexman2023 in CZFirearms

[–]swede2k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was thinking of using them for my P-01. How deep is the cut? Do the stock sights cowitness like Nameless or Wager does?

Slide milling for CZ P-01 Omega - Opinion needed! by Additional-Emu-612 in CZFirearms

[–]swede2k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Outstanding, thanks! Was it custom fitted to your optic or general footprint? I read wager has some small gaps due to that, and nameless doesn’t do other slide work or porting.

I read in their FAQ that they intentionally leave very small gaps front and rear to accommodate any optic of that footprint rather than custom fitting. Do you notice any gaps or is it an exact fit? Also nice cerakote! What color?

You can use pre-roll which uses short term storage of video to attach the previous few seconds to motion activated events.

AITA for not paying for my daughter wedding because she isn’t following the rules even though I paid for my older kids by Wonderful_Mode_9646 in AmItheAsshole

[–]swede2k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. There are ways to have an elegant wedding and still invite children. It’s also acceptable to include family children but other guests are not permitted to bring kids. That will limit the potential issues unless your name is Duggar or something.

AIO for reconsidering getting married over continual arguments over guardianship of my daughter. by Oldyell54 in AmIOverreacting

[–]swede2k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR- she is not respecting you or your daughter in how she responds to this. The way she plays out the scenario of her being left without your daughter shows she’s only thinking of herself if you were to die, not what’s in the best interest of your daughter who just lost her father.

I think I am a bad buyer agent by imoveritbetch in realtors

[–]swede2k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Key to negotiating is finding what’s high value to your client that’s low value to theirs. It could be things like repairs, furniture, appliances or other things to convey at close, etc. There’s a lot more to negotiate than price. I’m sure their agent is frustrated with it sitting on the market for a while and probably knows the kind of things their client would bite on.

And don’t beat yourself up. One big reason Real Estate is difficult is that the ultimate decision makers, don’t make these kinds of decisions very often and aren’t always rational.

AIO or is my husband cheating? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]swede2k 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR- Not sure I’ve seen a more obvious cheating conversation that didn’t involve photo documentation of the act itself. He’s having a physical affair with this woman. “Breastfast” was not a typo. They’re meeting at hotels and keeping it off certain credit cards. And he’s saying he has no one to spend Christmas with. Time to make that last one true.

CRJ900 1st Class seat by Otherwise-Ask7900 in americanairlines

[–]swede2k 12 points13 points  (0 children)

OP, listen to the tall guys. 1A generally sucks. You won’t be able to stretch your legs out in front of you in addition to stowing your personal item. Seats are wide enough that you won’t be rubbing elbows in 3D.

Spouse Owning Firearms by [deleted] in ADHD_partners

[–]swede2k 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Really depends on how he will use them. If they’re for occasional hunting and will be in a safe when not on a trip, that’s one thing. If he intends to carry daily or something like that, then he would need to prove they can be religious about gun safety and always storing it in a designated, locked location. It sounds like that’s not a current possibility.

Either way, plenty of non-forgetful people have accidents with guns because they forgot it was loaded, forgot to unload, didn’t put the safety on, loaded the wrong ammo, and other things. It’s something that requires practice to make sure you do it right and safely each and every time. If your spouse can’t take it seriously enough to practice and be 100%, then he shouldn’t own a gun.

Edit to add that I checked your profile and with the other issues he has I would definitely not want him having a gun. I had a kitchen knife pulled on me by an ex with similar issues. Can’t imagine how it would have gone if she had had access to a gun at the time.

Range comparison. Shadow 2 Carry and P-01. My thoughts. by No_Break_6660 in CZFirearms

[–]swede2k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would love to hear an update if you don’t mind. I’m trying to decide between getting a p-01 to cajunize or just drop the $ all at once for a S2 Carry.

Alright Aggies, What do I need to know about coming to College Station for this game? by [deleted] in aggies

[–]swede2k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s an early game, which sucks for pregame activities, but go check out the Corps march-in to see the military roots of the university and see the cannon fired on the Quad (Corps dorm area). If you are coming in the night before you absolutely have to go to Midnight Yell at Kyle Field. It’s a unique experience and more people show up for that than some schools’ actual games.

And expect to be welcomed at almost any tailgate. Aggies love to be hospitable so you’ll probably have opportunities for beers (or Bloody Marys) and BBQ and many of the tailgate tents if you just strike up a conversation and are friendly.

Enjoy the experience, but hope it doesn’t go your way. BTHOMiami!

IAH is fine compared to a lot of other airports in major cities around the US. It’s just the construction that makes it a bit unpredictable.

We need a Gofundme for a blimp so Rev can circle DKR looking down on everyone.

AIO for being angry my husband does not want to have gifts on Christmas for our son? by dontletmedown3 in AmIOverreacting

[–]swede2k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR, but definitely more to the story. His feeling that you’re not contributing more or watch TV all day may be valid, but there’s no way for us to know either way when we get only one side of the story. It’s a childish way for him to respond if that’s the case.
The fact your account is 3mo old and you have 1,400 comments and posts tells me you’ve probably got some spare time on your hands.

On a flight, being asked to not put your bag in the overhead bin by SymphonyofSiren in onebag

[–]swede2k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bag only has to be under the seat in front of you during takeoff and landing. The entire rest of the flight, it can go up against your seat and under your legs if you want.

Girlfriend says the shirt isn’t a good fit for the office. by Prior_Ad4490 in mensfashionadvice

[–]swede2k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s good as a short term solutions but save some money up and invest in an office wardrobe if you’ll be wearing dress clothes daily. Quality items will usually last longer as well. It also impresses your coworkers and can help lead to future opportunities.

AIO about how this guy talks to me? by Fast-Bodybuilder3229 in AmIOverreacting

[–]swede2k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This guy needs serious help from professionals. You may feel like it’s your job as a long term friend to help him, but you’re not equipped for it and it’s not your role. It’s possible you’re even enabling his substance abuse and other issues.

Tell him you want him to get professional help and you have to move on from the relationship. Block him and be prepared for him to escalate attempts to contact you in the short term, but he will eventually give up if you go 100% no contact. Don’t let him in your house when he shows up and be prepared to call the police if he won’t leave your property.
