PSA is dope but the permanent asterisk next to their name that you have to double check their work after unboxing a gun from them is worrisome. Sure the Customer Service is "great" but even better CS is never having to use it on a new in box product. YouTubers, Redditors, competitive shooters, they've all shown praise for PSA and even called out the QC of their products and yet consistently we have to have the talk of their QC processes for 4 years now. The AR15s, the PSA Dagger, the AK's, they all have shown up online with things missing, out of spec, or had parts failures.

If you check r/ak47 there's a thread of someone that got blacklisted from PSA because of a warranty issue and others commented also allege they were banned from shopping with PSA but I take these claims with a large grain of salt. The PSA Dagger used to have the trigger pin walk issue. The AR lineup itself has had its myriad of random QC crap wrong posted with seemingly every part from all different customers. The PSA JAKL pic rails being out of spec "controversy" seems trivial but its really not. The controversy of PSA not taking kindly to being called out by some YouTubers and cutting partnerships over honest reviews of products that are out of spec isn't cool either. I'd like to hear unbiased reviews of their products. I don't want to see PSA become the Olight of guns by purchasing everybody's reviews to say beaming things about their products. Not to mention the AAC 5.56 blowing up like a dozen guns now.

Every company has issues to work out when it comes to logistics, manufacturing processes, and quality control but some of these things are basic as inspecting a rifle or pistol to make sure it has every part before it is boxed and shipped. 4 or 5 years later and we're still talking about the QC issues with PSA. I don't think it's a blemish that can ever leave them we all admit they provide great products for the prices with the caveat of potential issues and having to use their warranty. To me PSA has a problem of having too many manufacturing processes they're trying to improve QC on. There's no focus on meticulous attention to detail.

Honestly you just need a Glock 26 with the OEM +2 mag and any decent Kydex holster with a low profile clip or any smaller gun. IMO the 26 is one of the lowest profile guns you can wear as a skinny guy but I haven't tried any Sig P365s yet. I'm 5'6" about 125 on a good day and carry a full size and a Glock 26 Clone from Polymer80. The smaller gun prints a lot less and is practically invisible even with the wind blowing against my face. The full size I carry doesn't print either because I carry around family that aren't aware I carry a gun and they've never seen it or said anything. The only time my full size truly prints is on a windy day if my shirt gets pushed tight against my body but I've been using that as a winter carry. I use a generic Kydex holster from Muddy River Tactical with the plastic DCC clips swapped for thinner metal clips. I also wear the Kore EDC concealed carry belt that's stiff as a hoola hoop with a size 26 waist (belt cut to 32 inches).

It is possible but you just have to be open to the idea that the gun you're carrying isn't working out. Sometimes it's a hard fact to accept that the gun you just spent a few hundred dollars on isn't conducive to the way your body requires you to carry.

Each backlash is different but it helps to find a nice rock to sit on and work it out. I once spent 35 minutes getting out a bunch of 30 pound braid that I had made a mess of after my texas rig snag on a reed next to me. It was a lot of pulling the main line out as tight as possible, tracing out where it was snagged under the loose line from the spool, and lots of pulling line over/under and working the spool both directions. Often times like this you will get the line on the spool that was tight become loose and it wraps under itself and other parts on the spool. I had to pull all of the loose line from the main reel guide and then I reeled the fixed loose line hand tight. Then I tied off to a tree and make the respooled line tight again just to be sure everything is good and nothing slips under itself again. It saved myself about 100 yards of brand new braid. Bait casters are super fun though I love them as much as I do spinning reels especially my Shimano Curado DC 151HG since I'm also a semi-beginner bait caster user. I've had it for 2.5 years now and I've caught LMBs and Rainbow Trout using it with all types of lure weights. It's been almost a year since I smelled a bass though.

Firmly grasp it and don't white knuckle it when you hold it.

People keep saying that but don't realize what "Backup" means. It means shit has already hit the fan. If you're in the middle of a fight and need this as a "backup" it likely won't be effective. In a physical fight this won't do much good if its in the deepest crevice of your pocket and you need to protect your head from either hands or a blunt object. If you're caught in a shootout and your gun is out of ammo or malfunctions you're better off retreating in cover to safety and taking care of that problem. Also a good mention is if you've seen the Active Self Protection YouTube channel that reviews Defense Gun Usages caught on camera, it's very rare for a civilian in a gun fight to reload let alone need a backup gun. I would rather just carry a spare magazine than this for my full size gun. If there's a malfunction or I need more rounds, drop the mag, rack the slide, make sure its clear, and insert the fresh mag.

I'm sure it's possible to train to use this gun perhaps inside of a fanny pack if you're walking your dog and don't want the coyotes or snakes to bother you. However for serious self defense even as backup I would say this is horribly inadequate. Rim fire ammo like I said can be finicky, without a barrel I'm sure this won't be too accurate past 5 feet if that. Also this is a single action gun meaning you have to cock the hammer each time for this gun to shoot. Some reviews of this I've seen owners complain of having to warranty theirs to get the cylinder fixed or replaced after it breaks from usage. Additionally if you pocket carry this the lint in your pocket is likely to seize up that cylinder mechanism since it's not very enclosed and just a simple pin.

For $500 you can buy a decent used Glock or Sig Sauer P365 even police trade ins for sub $500 or a Ruger LCP and a ton of ammo and pocket holster. There's much better options that are more reliable.

I wouldn't even take this as a back up. Rim fire rounds can be finicky even with the premium stuff. 22 Magnum isn't a joke but I think the reality of using this as a backup precludes the fact that it is much too impractical. In a moment where tenths of a second could mean the different between life and death, drawing this and deploying doesn't seem speedy as it's marketed. If it's meant to be stored without a holster then that means its free to flop around where you stick it. It will get jumbled around and be obstructed by other stuff you have in there. A great novelty gun but much too impractical for many realistic self defense scenarios imo.

Besides if you've seen the video of the youtuber who got shot after harassing a delivery guy in the mall with a .380, he barely noticed he'd been shot with a .380.

Yeah get one of those Arisaka inline scout light mounts that brings it more out and forward. Delete that shadow some more. Those things fuck got one on my rifle.

As for the game anybody that doesn't understand light and shadows doesn't get to have an opinion

I had the box catch fire one time because of the adhesive to hold the tear tab down. After that I stopped microwaving them in the box and put them on a microwave safe plate. I still eat these to this day. I’m not sure why the instructions are insisting that you microwave it with the top torn off as it makes zero difference with the box or without it. Functionally the box serves no purpose other than a safe way to handle the scalding hot lava pie.

Just buy a 19 mag with a sleeve for the 26 if you want more grip. Much cheaper. But I also think you should have a 19/17 alongside the 26. It’s truly an undefeated combo.

Yeah but you're supposed to take the pot pie out of the box you don't leave it in there.

BB guns and pellet guns probably like 5 or 6. I didn't shoot a real firearm until I was 21 and bought my first gun.

I bought 300 of them from Cabelas for $130 3 years ago. I still hold onto 180 rounds for nostalgia of when ammo was cheap.

Dude the U.S Military teaches people with sometimes zero firearms experience to shoot groups exactly like this and worse. 4 inches at 100 yards with 55 grain out of a 1:7 twist from a barrel that costs less than $100 isn't bad for 70% of gun AR15 owners and is arguable "mil-spec true" accuracy.

What you're saying is true nonetheless. If you can afford a better barrel buy one. Somebody who buys this barrel (or Anderson rifle) is probably not even going to ever wear down this barrel. They're going to buy it for home defense, slap a Romeo 5 red dot on it, and throw it in the closet. Maybe they'll shoot it once a year but let's be real about how niche being an enthusiast in this community is.

The real problem is that France has little to no Uranium reserves naturally. France gets their Uranium from a couple mines in one or two African countries. These same countries are former French colonies that are experiencing economic hardship because of how the French have manipulated their currencies.

So sure France may have been able to fight climate change but it’s at the expense of an entire African country. Furthermore Russian forces and Russian aligned PMCs are working in these countries to try and stop the French from accessing these Uranium reserves. This is ramping up more hardship and pressures for civilians caught in the conflicts.

The Glock manual says to release the slide depressing the lever or pulling the slide back.

I don't let what other people do bother me. If I'm a tourist somewhere I have no right to tell another tourist what to do and they have no right to tell me I can't be in the background of their pictures. Unless they're using a physical roll of film it's not a problem they can just snap another shot when I'm out of the frame.

Has it ruined traveling? No, it just means you're too conscious of what others are doing and trying to be considerate when you stop for every person taking pictures. Not purposely but I have walked in front of many people taking pictures on vacation because there is simply no other path and I need to get somewhere at a specific time. Take for instance Universal Studios California. When the park opens and closes the big Universal Logo water fountain area gets so clogged up you have no choice but to walk in front the 1000 people taking pictures.

Courtesy does go both ways however. I'll make mention to a photographer I need to get by and usually they oblige. If it's a large crowd, I'm walking in front of whoever I need to, to get by it doesn't matter if you're setting up for a picture.

Now you have to sleep with his dad. Can't let that little fucker get one over on you.

You can get 1000 rounds of 9mm for as low as 15.5 cents/round right now.

Cases of 1000 on Ammoseek are floating between $160 and $240 depending on brand, case type, and projectile type.

1000 rounds of .40 at its lowest price on Ammoseek is $250 or 24.4 cents/round for remanned and jumps sharply to $280+ for other brands/types.

Most of the porting from the development workspace to console is debugging and optimization. The console version of the game is totally functional on PC but designed to be optimized for console. Before consoles were using CPU architecture that wasn’t compatible with PC processors that made porting games more laborious because the entire engine had to be coded specifically for X or Y consoles and CPU architecture. Then you had to debug the entire game from a console. Today the consoles share more similar hardware architecture thanks to developers and the way hardware has advanced. Realistically there’s not too much of a valid reason other than money and maybe server logistics to delay a PC release. But more than 6 months is enough to say the delay is to cash grab impatient gamers.
