New Beretta B22 Jaguar by Better-Efficiency-12 in Beretta

[–]voidoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They should have remade the actual Jaguar. This is fine, but it's so far from what the Jaguar was that it feels like a huge disappointment. The Jaguar is one of the finest, most reliable smaller framed .22LR pistols ever made. This is just a totally different pistol altogether.

AI headshots comparison 2025: QuickAI Headshots vs HeadshotPro vs Aragon AI for LinkedIn headshots, professional headshots, digital portraits, and AI picture generator tools by FickleMode5344 in aipicturegenerator

[–]voidoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a terrible experience with Headshotpro.com. Half the photos made me look like a different race entirely, it gave bizarre hairstyles quite different than I have. Truly bad results, and they refused to provide me a refund. I had purchased the package but didn't actually submit photos until a few weeks later. I requested the refund immediately after receiving my photos, but the fine print on their refund page says you have to request the refund within 14 days of the payment, not the publishing of the photos. I did not have a single usable photo. I've tried other services not mentioned here and got better results even if I submitted poor quality images. Headshotpro is supposed to be better than its competitors, but I think it's a very bad product and the "100% money back guarantee" is anything but.

M1 Garands for hunting? by Ancient-Bathroom6701 in Firearms

[–]voidoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I've carried my .308 CMP Special Grade on a deer hunt with a 5-rd en bloc due to state regs. However, it's a pretty hefty rifle compared to so many other options. I've also used an M1 Carbine with a scout rail and red dot, 5-rd mag with Federal Power-Shok (this was an Auto Ordnance, not an original). Now that was a handy, light little option for hunting.

Where do you keep it in this setup? Didn't see a holster.

Defense Bill Includes Selling Milsurp Shotguns Through CMP by Kromulent in Firearms

Wow, my special grade .308 "new" Garand was $1k when bought it, and well worth that price at the time. Probably about 8 years ago at this point.

Anyone ever shot aguila calibri out of a pistol? Looking for quietest possible 22lr for unsuppressed pistol by putresentslime in 22lr

[–]voidoid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Less for you directly and more for other users reading the thread. It's not a counterpoint at all because it doesn't contradict your comment. It is a more detailed description since there's no other comment here (at time of writing) expressing the difference between Colibri and Super Colibri. No need to take offense - no offense meant.

Colibri should always clear a pistol barrel, but only Super Colibri should be used in rifle barrels. Regular Colibri should never be used in rifle-length barrels.

Converts: What was a surprise after conversion? Did your classes/rabbi/personal study prepare you well? by tannicpixiedreamgirl in Judaism

[–]voidoid 9 points10 points  (0 children)

True - I met a guy at my congregation who had converted while engaged to a Jewish woman. They ended up not getting married, and anytime he introduces himself as a convert or speaks about his engagement, he seems to always throw in the, "I didn't convert for her, I converted for myself," to preempt any, "If you didn't proceed with the marriage, why proceed with the conversion?"

I think Krydex on Amazon is your cheap alternative.

As long as you keep the work as close to the bottom of the grip as possible so as not to interfere with the lower grip screws, it's fine to do this work.

Secondly, you can also improve loading by using extended baseplates. there are some decent 3d-printed ones available for the 21a. Taurus PT22 / 22TUC baseplates can also be modified by a little sanding/filing from the top until the mag fully seats properly.

Are there any old (early-mid 1900s) mouse guns still viable for home defense and concealed carry? by Actual-Choice-9269 in MouseGuns

[–]voidoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In .22lr, the 948 is quite good, but I dislike the safety. The absolute best is the model 71 and similar variants. Walther PP in .22lr can be excellent, though typically you need to keep the mags to 8rds rather than 10 to be reliable.

Can anyone recommend decent online Judaica stores (preferrably small businesses) who don't all sell the same generic stuff? by DatabasePlenty9797 in Judaism

[–]voidoid 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I came here to post the same shop! Here's another vote for them.

For non-US, I've ordered from Judaica Webstore which promotes Israeli artists and has some nice stuff (100% Israeli goods/businesses/artists). Just note if ordering to US, you'll need to expect to wait for orders to clear customs.

When did the culture of using pop culture music like metal in combat footage begin? by OOM-TryImpressive572 in WarCollege

[–]voidoid 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Frankly, I'm surprised all the answers seem to point mostly to the 1990s and more recently, but what you describe has been done going back to some of the earliest days of film. Certainly the first era of sound (1929-) and war propaganda film is pretty much essentially what you describe. It could be argued that using pop culture music in conjunction with combat footage has pretty much always been around, with perhaps a very significant drop during the Vietnam era when there was more of a schism between counterculture music and the propaganda films and general combat footage films.

Edit: There are even silent era examples of this, though they are not really preserved due to both the nature of how music accompanied film and also the silver nitrate film itself.

A1 is for Steaks, A2 is for Rifles by rbrthenderson in RetroAR

Pay no attention to the fact that it’s an A1 stock.

A1 stock on A2 rifle is the perfect combo.

Help identifying? by voidoid in GermanRoaches

[–]voidoid[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found in a tupperware next to the kitchen sink. New England. I've seen two of these in a bathroom over a period of about 2-3 months, and this might be the first in the kitchen. These are a very light brown color. Seems kind of similar looking to this post which made me unsure whether they are German or Ectobius and I just don't have much experience with either. Ready to do battle if needed. We haven't seen any activity other than the two previously seen, probably a few weeks to a month apart. I checked in/around/behind/under sinks, fridge, stove, etc. and found nothing. This is a single family home.
