Awesome! Thanks.
I suppose it depends on if she's "worth it." I'm only slightly older than you and by now I know myself pretty well and what's important to me. I got married at 22 and my wife didn't care about guns...
I can't really disagree with the utility of BUIs on a rifle. But I kind of view them like the tires that come with a new car- enough to get you off the dealer's lot but almost certainly not great...
Honestly, I can't remember the last rifle I bought that came with sights. Probably gotta set the wayback machine to when I bought my Bren 805. In the last 40 years the only rifles I've had except...
Kinda interesting carbine but the comb looks too low to use the optic comfortably. I suspect nearly everyone will use an optic of some kind so this seems like a big omission to me.
Does anyone here by chance have their EPS mounted on an HK VP9? I'm trying to figure out the best plate to use, sounds like maybe the CHPWS is the way to go despite being twice the cost of the HK...
I was pretty excited about the new crop of 10mm pistols but my hopes are fading. Somewhere I read that the M&P 2.0 was designed with heavier bullets in mind but I can't verify the truth of it. Right...
Well, I'll chime in as a data point but to be honest I don't shoot anything at a high level at the moment.:p I wrecked my shoulder in a fall at work in early 2021 and was on work comp for 18 months,...
FWIW, RMA Defense 1155mc plates do indeed fit the Strandhogg, albeit fairly snugly. The plate fit the back panel more easily, probably just a minor variation in the plate bags. Anything larger or...
Well, just a quick update! I'd say it's a mixed bag. I ordered my Strandhogg v3 in black and just over a week later they emailed to tell me it's out of stock with an eight week lead time. That...
Awesome stuff! I've greatly enjoyed your videos, started watching them during the pandemic and never stopped.
You make some great points but I don't want a safety lever on my sidearm at all.
Yeah, the popularity of the AR platform is a double edged sword. It's not perfect but it's somewhere between 85%-90% as good as anything else for a reasonable cost. And there's such a vast...
If she likes the crossbolt safety the Storm carbine should be on the short list. I never really did like crossbolt safeties, and it feels especially out of place on a carbine set up like a big...
Awesome! Checking it out now.
I had two Star BMs and a Star PD back in the day. Carried 'em all (not at the same time, natch) at various times. Of course this was before the Plastic Fantastic took over.
The ultimate hipster gun is a Glock tricked out to the point that there are no Glock parts in the gun. The trigger is almost certainly red and it's got the full panoply of slide cuts. Invariably...
I've had a couple different pairs of speakers with compartments in the bottom for mass loading. The idea was adding some lead shot (or other heavy dry media) would increase the effective mass of the...
Great stuff, as always!:cool:
I of course plan to get a REIN 3.0 and am stoked to see it will also run on CR123a; that was my sole complaint about their other lights. On the negative side I already have an OWL and a REIN 1.0 so...
Hahaha, so true! This will be my 4th plate carrier and hopefully each one is getting me closer to the Platonic ideal of the form. I've got a slick/lo-pro Shellback carrier which will probably stay...
I got an email yesterday that the Strandhogg V3 in Black was out of stock with an 8 week projected lead time. Bummer! But after thinking for a moment I inquired if they had the same one Manatee in...
Well, lots of good carriers out there but I can't shake the desire for the First Spear! For today only, 12/12/22, they're going a 20% discount with code justthetip22 so I broke down and ordered a...
That was actually pretty cool!:cool:
This might already be kind of irrelevant given how wild this discussion has become but I'll throw it out there- a cell phone will probably never come close to a dedicated handheld light, at least...
