I just got into cerakoting and also did my first hydro dip this week. Apparently yes, you can use cerakote for a base and a clear coat. I only know that from reading.. no actually experience.

I only go to Panera for Sip Club and deals. Today I used the SUMMER code for a $6 sandwich, bought a $2 cookie with a reward redeem, and a lemonade off the club. Cost under $10.

Love this 22. I bought it right before my states AWB. I can’t confirm this, but I think someone at the distributor swapped the threaded barrel for a non treaded version. I called Ruger and explained the situation. They asked me to send it in, but I explained my state was going to ban threaded barrels in the next week or so (they did) and I wouldn’t be able to receive it if they took too long. So instead they asked for a picture and shipped out a replacement barrel the next day.

If the APC is only $300 more go with that. love my GHM but I only paid $1000 (have about $4500 into it now) vs the APC’s at that time going for $2500+. My GHM was my last purchase before my states AWB, so it’s my baby.

They make a buffer tube stock adapter for the GHM..

It was also sent at a reasonable hour of the day..and not like 3:30am.

The K2-XL grip of you want something bigger

No mention of “crooked joe Biden”..so yep, math checks out

Thanks for pointing out that it’s not an attainable number and calling it 22% is BS.

Anyone who’s into guns knows that people don’t buy overpriced guns at a gun show. 22% is such a BS number.

And online purchases have to be ran through an FFL, where a background check is performed prior to your acquisition of the firearm.

About a third of all states already have gun show loopholes closed down, so that 22% would be more like 40% of purchases in states that allow gun show purchases without background checks. Again..gun show firearms are so overpriced that people rarely buy from them especially in today’s day and age when you can hop on the internet and find the best pricing, then have it shipped to you local store. It’d be like saying 40% of buyers are willing to pay Nordstrom prices for the same item they can get at Walmart keeping in mind that most of those gun show friendly states are friendly in gun legislation and you can pretty much walk out of an actual gun store with your purchase the same day. Gun shows are for selling antique firearms and beef jerky nowadays and that’s well know by enthusiasts. 22% is BS.

The delta in price is small enough that it’s worth it for me to size up. So if I ever go into production the higher wattage will cycle items quicker.

Your bigger concern would be having enough SCFM to run a sandblaster of you’re taking that part on.

Poor gal got told hard work was the key to success if it wasn’t gifted to her….

Edit: it’s especially funny going over the posts that you commented thanking for the advice vs what I’ve said. Someone literally told you to stop playing the sob story and you thought that was great.

Seems like a case of just keep adding shitty assets until the overall package numbers add up.

I put the work in to get here and preach daily to other coworkers in my company that want to advance their skillset and do better. I’m also willing to give my time to help them out if they’re willing to invest their own time. I’ve also done things like host after hours classes for those who want to grow their technical knowledge which takes not only me giving those hours during class away but also putting together lesson plans for the classes. I’m very well respected throughout my company because of what I give without any expectation of a return.

Turning 30 was great for me. Left a job at my ex step fams company that was really holding me back. Took a job at a competitor and really started getting career focused. Started making decent money. Grew my friend group rapidly after getting deeper into the EDM community. Bought a home at 37.

Just turned 41 and took a managers position and am looking forward to even more success while making really good money now. The hard work in my 30s is paying off.
