What is your "never again" brand, item, store, or restaurant ? by radbrad7in AskReddit

[–]maverickps 1 point2 points ago

I wonder if this is common. There is a McD in the parking lot of the 24Hr Fitness I use in Dallas.

What guns are on your current wish list? by crappyscreennamein guns

[–]maverickps 1 point2 points ago*

  • Sig P226 in .40 with the .357 and 9mm conversion barrels
  • A semi-auto shotgun, 3
  • O/U hunting shotgun
  • CZ bolt action .17hmr or 22WMR, for pests
  • AK-47, for fun
  • A cheap-as-i-can ar-15 for field work, truck, so i wont care if it gets scratched
  • muzzle loader - for muzzle loading deer season
  • Glock in .40 G27 - concealed carry
  • Glock 19 for cheap plinking
  • Ruger 22/34 Lite - because it looks like a good gun for backpacking/hiking
  • Colt .357 blue in 6" or 4" - because its fucking sexy
  • Decent 1911 - because they look fun to work on, and nostalgia factor
  • Gamo Silent Cat .22 - squirrels
  • Serbu super shorty - because lolz
  • An Atlatl - because it looks fun
  • Long Range tactical rifle, preferrably 6.5CM or .260, AICS2.0 folding stock
  • Mac 10/45 with .22/9/.45 uppers
  • Some cheap (500$), old Rem700 30-06 deer rifle
  • A survival .22, possibly Henry but I hear the quality has gone to shit so I will have to look into other options.

By my calculations I am about 18k$ away from being finished.

After the tools comes the toys: * S&W 500 with the 2.5" barrel * Serbu BFG-50 (or other single shot .50) * S&W 642 Airweight * Mosin Hex receiver * Belt-fed AR-15 upper * Legal Lightning Link * SKS

Moronic Monday for 5/14/2012 by eyeffensivein guns

This is what I thought. I move into a new apartment by the end of the year, then maybe to a house a year after that. Oh well, guess I can just save the money until then.

If you are planning to move (within the same state) in the next 6 months, is it a bad idea to begin the NFA process?

I'm an eating disorder therapist, working in TX. AMAA by TheLadyEvein IAmA

[–]maverickps 3 points4 points ago

Do you believe men are an underserved demographic in eating disorders?

[–]maverickps 8 points9 points ago

how do you differentiate between an eating disorder and a quirky habit? I know a girl that can't take a bite of a sandwich or hamburger; she has to tear off individual bites and put them in her mouth.

Are these telltale signs, or just something she picked up along the way?

  • What is the average duration it takes to "cure" a patient?
  • What is the strangest/most interesting thing that has driven a patient to have an eating disorder?
  • Do you treat any men with eating disorders?

I'm ashamed this isn't the worst thing to come through our office. by Bayoublasterin guns

I hear they are worth every penny.

I just have a difficult time trusting my fingers/eyes to a piece of 150$ plastic.

How to clean (and lubricate) a gun by presidentenderin guns

[–]maverickps 0 points1 point ago

The rule of thumb I go by in general is "clean the gun when it begins to malfunction."

The caveats on this rule are: always clean/lube if it gets caught in the rain; corrosive ammo; a concealed carry should be cleaned after every other trip. you cannot afford for it to malfunction.

Slapped some new glass on my 200+ yard rig by mr_mrs_yukin guns

Dallas, TX.

The range is North East Texas Tactical. Should show up in a google.

[–]maverickps 0 points1 point ago

Yes to this scope! I have the exact same one. Mind if I ask what you paid for it?

It will go on my .308 once it gets back from the gunsmith. Getting a brake, similar to yours, added to my long range baby.

So far I have only take it out to 100yd for 1 day, but I get the rifle back Thursday and Saturday a guy is opening up a 1500yd range about 35 miles from my place. Also 200rnds 175gr Federal GMM showing up on Thursday. Lol, and the 1600yd laser range finder showed up just today!

That's some excellent trigger discipline you have there Vanessa.... by prey1337in guns

One day people will learn that not all downvotes are real, reddit automatically adds downvotes to prevent gaming the system.

From the FAQ

How is a submission's score determined?

A submission's score is simply the number of upvotes minus the number of downvotes. If five users like the submission and three users don't it will have a score of 2. Please note that the vote numbers are not "real" numbers, they have been "fuzzed" to prevent spam bots etc. So taking the above example, if five users upvoted the submission, and three users downvote it, the upvote/downvote numbers may say 23 upvotes and 21 downvotes, or 12 upvotes, and 10 downvotes. The points score is correct, but the vote totals are "fuzzed".

If money is the issue, why not the mosin, or those 800,000 Garands in Korea?

Just ND'd a shotgun in my apartment, inside city limits. No one was hurt and no serious damage. Am I obligated to call the cops to report it? by SlutBusterin guns

[–]maverickps 12 points13 points ago

Long ago in the Boy Scouts I took the shotgun shooting merit badge. Before you got to the shooting part you had to take a test which included a part where you defined each part of the shotgun such as the trigger, bolt, barrel, magazine, etc.

The only acceptable answer for "Safety" was: A mechanical device that can and will fail.

To this day the only time I have seen a safety fail is when it was not fully engaged, but I still dont trust the fuckers.

$5,000 and 12 months later I finally completed my SMG! by shikijiyuin guns

[–]maverickps 1 point2 points ago

Did you do any research for Mac-10 vs Mac-11, and why did you go with the Mac-11?

I have been looking into this, and my thinking is to go with the Mac-10/45, so it can fire .45/9mm/.22

1500 Yard range opening up 35 miles from my house!! by dieselgeekin guns

[–]maverickps 1 point2 points ago

Aaaaand next Saturday is the open range day. I guess I'll meet you there if you are planning to go.

I pick up my gun from the smith this week. He claims his muzzle brake reduces muzzle rise to the point where you can watch the vapor trail out beyond a few hundred yards.

This is how I felt at Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament. Food does not taste as good while watching a horse shit.
