  1. Sig 226 for $500 Is a great deal. PDs will issue sides and there are officers that only qualify when they have to. Sidearms will go months without firing according to my retired APD cousin. Believe it or not, some cops are not gun nuts or care very little about range time. He never carried what he was issued. Instead he opted to carry a Glock G21 .45. That being said, every used pistol I got off TGT “only had 250 rounds through it”. Right. Also could have been an end of contract situation. A cop may have gotten a Sig P320 as part of a new contract so he sold his old carry. The departments will also sell whole batches of unissued firearms if they change primary contracts. The first few Glock G22s I bought at GT distributors were department inventory that still had the manufacturer bronze paste or whatever that stuff was. Never fired, never cleaned. Again, It’s a good buy. I have a 226 and it’s a great gun. If I didn’t have a CZ I would shoot it a lot more than I do.
  2. The sound in the stadium is a fucking beating. It would be different if this was a good game. It isn’t. And the AV team is killing me.
  3. No regrets here. It’s a lot of money for a pocket knife especially when I have dozens of really good knives already. It’s not better at opening boxes than my others and it won’t be the end of my knife habit. It is a good looking knife and I really like the blue stud and spacer. I knew it was a big knife but it does not eat as much pocket space as I thought it would. It takes up about the same space as a Griptillian and less than a spyderco shaman. It’s pretty stiff so I’m bruising my thumb trying to break it in. Similar to my small Sebenza you can tell it’s a quality knife.
  4. After years of hemming and hawing, this arrived today: Chris Reeve Large Sebenza 31 The small Sebenza I bought used a few years ago used on bladeforums so I knew I’d get a large Sebenza eventually. They seem impossible to find retail and sell out on the bf exchange immediately. Thankfully, CRK changed the design on their inlays so I didn’t form over an extra $150 for the micarta version. Ultimately found an authorized dealer on eBay Action Concepts based in ….. Austin.
  5. Love CZs. I have a few. Shadow 2 is tits. And I doubt I’ll shoot the 75 again.
  6. Physics involves the science of motion. Thermodynamics involves the science of a change in temperature. I think. Actually I have no idea. I was a math major.
  7. Diplomat was suggested on my homepage for a month so I finally watched it. It would have been better if they skipped all the personal relationship issues. 6/10
  8. Gonna have to watch what Tom Bihn the company does next. The founders sold to another company and they started rolling out X-Pac that TB the person said he would Never do. I have two Synapse and a medium Road Buddy but that’s it….for now.
  9. Tom Bihn Synapse bag in the back? I have the same.
  10. Just to bring it back to the topic at hand… The bugout is a great knife. Just as good as any griptilian I’ve had, just slimmer.
  11. And the cycle begins anew I spent the morning browsing wurkkos and acebeam flashlights after my kid took my Olight warrior mini. I took it back and am looking for a tail switch light for him to have. Wurkkos FC12 In the process of looking for his new light I think I found my next impulse buy Acebeam e70 mini Ti
  12. I’m in.
  13. The writers knew the assignment. I was skeptical it was just a money grab but the movie worked for kids and parents. There was some Good sound adaptation to help the nostalgia points. And the length was just about right at 90 minutes.
  14. Thanks. Was going to go out there today but the rain had other ideas. Will try again tomorrow.
  15. Why does it seem impossible to find Bermuda sod in round rock area by the pallet for delivery. The place on north IH35 is always out. There is another place on 290 that doesn’t have enough supply to warrant a delivery. Any tips?
  16. Dup.
  17. Funniest scene for the whole series IMO
  18. Factory Reset. First time I’ve heard that. Lulz
  19. All that hates gonna burn you up kid
  20. Finally got serious and bought something not sold on Banggood. Arrma Big Rock 3s brushless V3. 1:10 It’s my second 3s vehicle and has some serious speed. I’m sure I’ll have it in need of repairs soon. Which should be easier than waiting for parts from china when I broke the others. As an aside I hate the sizing standards for RCs. The Big Rock and the truck on the left are. It’s 1:10. Not even close. All of the below are fun as hell. Even the little ref buggy from WLToys will destroy most anything at a big box store. Some day I’ll go for a Bigger RC like the 4S Outkast or 6S Infraction, but for now, this one will do….

    Shit My Kid Says

    “You know, in an earthquake, coffins become maracas”
  22. I love range day. Shadow 2 at 15 yards standing.
  23. Yes. Tucci is great and it’s an okay watch. I have a real hard time with movies where the whole plot falls apart if people just listened to the other person. This is one of those.
  24. Doesn’t the gun shop also have paddle boards or something like that? I know I’ve used them as my FFl a couple times.
