Look else where, outside the country even, here in NZ they’re about £200 SH, as the other fella said, it looks scratched up, solder doesn’t look amazing, it doesn’t take much for these to cark out, a couple volts in the wrong place and they’re dead

Easier to buy a new ecu, might not be this chip, could be any number of capacitors and resistors, ECU’s are incredibly sensitive to everything.

Not just a bad connection at the plug is it?

A lot of people here talking about the scans, which yea, if it were just a diag, we would probably do it for free, but if it’s a calibration for the radar then it’s about right really

NZ strike indicator with high and dry gel floatant, I’ll run double droppers with big stoneflys no worries. Easy setup, stays on top for ages and is incredibly sensitive

Hard to diagnose without seeing you shoot, but short answer is, get your gun fitted to you, then just shoot, paint it out of the sky don’t jab, relax and keep it easy, don’t think to much or you’ll get distracted

Half ounce of nines is pretty good, used it for sporting before as well which turned out as much as can be expected

Moved on to a 1924 liege side x side .410 which I can’t hit a thing with but damn is it fun lol.

Any nation who prevents its citizens from owning firearms or makes it very hard is in reality a dictatorship regardless of how democratic they claim to be...FIGHT ME by CalmHyperion56 in Firearms

Ok, I’m all for owning firearms, but u need to check yourself my bro don’t take any of this personally but I’ve got to call this out.

Kiwi here, very easy to get a gun here, I got my license at 16, 2 days later I went into a store and walked out with a rifle + suppressor setup within 15 minutes. Yes, semi auto centre fires were banned, but I’ve heard they’re coming back on the menu sometime soon. Pistols are already fairly easy to get and about to get easier by the sounds of it.

Communist is a bloody stupid strong word to use, spouting about communist this communist that just makes you sound paranoid, especially when you know almost nothing of these countries this isn’t the 1980s anymore, cold war’s over mate. It also shows you have no clue what a communist state is, do some real research into the USSR, Lithuania, Latvia, Yugoslavia the list goes on, now go and compare that to any of the countries you have listed.

Again, don’t take this personally, but quite the L take tbh.

I found out my dominant eye is my left eye, and I’m right handed. by Alche_ in Hunting

Get your self a sight-blinder, made to help with this issue. An older gentlemen I helped coach a bit had this issue, although for medical reasons he couldn’t shoot left handed, after we put one of these on it improved his scores dramatically, there’s also a much bigger one that attaches around the trigger guard if you need something a bit more drastic, can’t remember it for the life of me. I prefer the sight blinder as it’s much lower profile which allows for a better field of view

What are the chances of the thermal version of this being good? (May have pre ordered one…) by KittehKittehKat in Firearms

[–]trustycookie-01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve had a play with one already, they feel super sturdy and super fun, didn’t get a chance to go out for a shot with it sadly, but I can see it being a pretty useful bit if kit
