I desperately need an electronic set that auto locks. My lovely other half is downright awful about remembering to lock the front door. I just need it to replace the deadbolt as the handle doesn't...

I desperately need an electronic set that auto locks. My lovely other half is downright awful about remembering to lock the front door. I just need it to replace the deadbolt as the handle doesn't...
In a bit of a conundrum for a vehicle, I have a leased '20 F150 XLT 2.7 Ecoboost that runs out end of August leaving me in a spot to decide what to do when rates are trash and the car market in a...
Well I've tried a bunch since my last post while massively enjoying CAO Brazilia, AB Magic Toast, Padron 2000, My Father Le Bijou 1922 (Just ordered my first box of cigars and it was this one), and...
I just realized Fox sold singles to pick up. I also realized today that I work maybe 10 minutes from a Cigar International store which means I'll be hitting that up. I want to try a Magic Toast as it...
I've added a Perdomo Habano, a Macanudo Cafe Hyde Park, a Punch Clasico, and a CAO Gold to the list I've tried so far. The Perdomo and Macanudo were alright but nothing special to me. The Punch was...
I grabbed a Buenaventura BV600 the other day and while it was an alright smoke it was bigger than I liked at 6x60 and took forever to get through. I grabbed a Oliva Connecticut Reserve I smoked the...
Thats what we went to. G45 with TLR7a in a Safariland 7xxx series holster. Ive never once found holster length that much of an issue to warrant a decrease in light ability. And with my TQ mounted to...
I’m actually walking into a chiropractor in a few minutes. I recently moved across the country for a new department. My old agency was nylon belts and an outer carrier with some things on it; not the...
I recently decided to start trying cigars after never having smoked anything in my life. Watched a couple Youtubes to see what I didn't know and not be totally in the dark about them. Went to local...
I just got forced from an X300U that I've carried for years to an issued TLR-7a that got issued department wide at my new PD. The general consensus is that this light is trash for a duty light. Its a...
These days my rotation is:
Duty: G45 w/ TLR7a (Dont ask. Its a crap setup but that is what is issued and I'm stuck with for now) Will have an ACRO on it soon though.
Most often off duty is a...
Well my 2020 F150 seems to have developed a lovely knew knocking sound. It almost sounds like something in the rear axle area is bouncing but I only hear it during low speed turns. I'm guessing its a...
The heat and the energy here in N.TX has been driving my electric bill through the roof. With the heat my usage has already been 1.5x last month and we don't really leave anything on ever. My...
With the failing power grid/rolling blackout talks plus shoddy electric coverage by Oncor in my new subdivision causing regular-ish outages I've been looking more into generators. I was looking the...
I've been looking into these a lot the last couple days, mostly the Bluetti and EcoFlow brands. I'm trying to decide what is best for my needs. Lots of pros and cons to them leaving me unsure to go...
My old agency had a very wide open policy on what we could carry. I was issued a G17 carrying my personal G19 with milled RMR/x300u for most of the last 5 years on duty with my S&W 642 running backup...
Even with our massive violence and gun crime increase this year we haven't encountered any body armor here. Lots of rifle rounds located on scenes though. We have come into contact with more than a...
While a lot of us have gone to the sit and respond types of work thanks to everything, we also have to remember most of these OIS's are still coming from dispatched calls. Today its like going to...
The short of it is this bill screws us and many of us are now looking to leave the state and/or get out of LE all together thanks to this passing here. I don't work in Chicago but this bill has...
I have made the switch to Modlite for all my duty lights so far and my pistol light will be as well as soon as its released. The OKW Head is MORE than capable on a rifle for inside work. I'm running...
Qualifications are I'm a cop that trains on my own time and dime because my department barely does it.
Couple thoughts, if it's serious enough my gun is out I'm using my WML. If my gun isn't out...
Currently all Supervisor squads carry LL 12ga in them. Anyone else trained/qual'd on the LL 12ga can get one assigned to them at shift but then you have to get either a firearms cadre or Sgt to let...
I'm with you on absolutely hating suspenders but I haven't found a better solution. My current good solution was moving my radio to my external carrier, this made a massive difference on my belt. I...
GearFondler would the one that Olong posted be a viable short cut to where you are already taking these? It SEEMS (from my super untalented eye) you could sharpen the pry end and cut/grind the board...
As someone who rocks a duty belt 40+ hours a week and will have to for another 28 years I try to keep my belts light and keep nothing on my back, which is a feat with a 31" waist. I'm currently...
