>>64636354It's been subzero for a while-22 where I was larping earlier
>>64636353Without those material goods my life isn't worth living
>>64636364Fuck that noise. When it gets that cold things just stop working
>>64636364damn, here it was -20 this morning.

anyone have the unity 4x ftc? is it any better (eye-relief and glass) than the eotech g43?
>>64636319
>>64636427G43 is the short guy you want the g33.I haven’t used a Unity 4x but I assume like 5x g45 it’s a game of eyebox vs magnification.

>>64636511I don't live in the cities
>>64636516>he's got better taste than recalled "police trade" plates with an expired warranty and really suspicious timing.Alrighty then. If you can't swing $430 for a pair of Hesco 4403s then look at these:https://gilliamtechnicalservices.com/products/model-1023-9-75-x-12-rf3-nij-0101-07-10-x-12-ceramic-armor-plate?
>>64636272I'm in
>>64636272how much do they weigh?
>>64636559I think the actual weight is slightly less than the stated weight.
>>64636543Nice.>>64636559It's the Hesco 4400, 10x12 "gamma large" (shooters), 7.6lb. Note that these were suspended by the NIJ for failing a follow up FIT test so they cannot be expected to provide Level IV protection.If you have $180 and some change, you can get a set of Hesco 4600s. These are 6lb and have the same problem.https://surplus.botach.com/hesco-model-4600-lvl-iv-plates-set-of-2-police-trade/
>>64636424Ugliest rifle of the week for sure
>>64636580I bought a set of L210's many many moons ago, that was enough Hesco for me
>>64636580>6lbthat's tempting. I have a set of highcom 4S17Ms and they are heavy.
>>64636592I don't knock Hesco around too much these days. The 4400, 4600, 3410, 3610 (all models Botach is now conveniently selling after the 5 year warranties expired, hahaha...) suspensions were egregious, but they made good on recalls and replacements. Their entire current lineup is solid except for the 4800, which is underbuilt - this is a problem endemic to all civ-accessible Level IV plates under ~5.6lb. By the way, the L210 shares a ceramic strike face with the 4400 so, in theory, there are bad L210s out there since the 4400's suspension was traced to a batch of improperly hardened strike faces. SRT plates like the L210 are not subjected to FITs, so there wouldn't have been a recall. Are you still running the L210s or did you replace them with something else?
>>64636599I would NOT replace the 4S17Ms with the 4600s. The 4S17Ms are heavy as shit, and the 10x12 if you got that is really more 9.25x11.5" so it's undersized, but they're dual NIJ / DEA-compliant and are robust Level IVs.There are Protech 2230s for sale on Gunbroker. These are older plates that used to go for $500 a plate and were never sold to civilians. 7.5lb for a 10x12, dual Level III and IV rating, and tested to defeat .30-06 M2AP up to 600ft/s faster than base Level IV spec. They're "expired" but good plates don't really expire, that's just the warranty. $450 or so a set, no affiliation with seller.https://www.gunbroker.com/item/1139132598
>>64636531159 a pop isn't bad at all.Are these reputable by any stretch of the word or "just as good" and expected to delam in a few years or something
>>64636584Why must you try to hurt me so
>>64636618>I would NOT replace the 4S17Ms with the 4600snoted. I'm not going to get those protech plates though, about a pound of weight saving (total for the two plates) isn't really worth it.
DIDNT REALIZE THIS WAS BODYARMORGENERAL
>>64636635I'll give you the pros and the cons. Cons first because armor is very sketchy and needs to be scrutinized.Cons:1. Gilliam uses primarily Chinese materials, although their armorfilm adhesive is proprietary and supposedly made in-house. The adhesive failing is what would cause delamination. 2. Gilliam has no NIJ certifications.3. Gilliam is very new and has little to no youtube testing.Pros:1. Because they use primarily Chinese materials, Gilliam plates are really cheap.2. Their test reports, when available, show solid performance. Pic related shows the Gilliam 1023 vastly outperforming the new Gen2 RMA 1155. Six hits of M2AP for the 1023, all under 44mm BFD, versus just two for the 1155 and the second is suspect. 3. They're very up front with sizing and plate construction, which is good.4. Their 8002 plate is multi-hit rated for really heavy shit like 7.62x51mm M993 and Swiss P AP, with test report proving so, and is the cheapest plate available for that at $800 a pair. It's over 8lb though, and single curve.
>>64636653Fair enough! The Protechs have a multi-hit advantage against lesser threats, a built-in trauma pad (hence why they're so thick), and have a ridiculously high v0 against .30-06 M2AP. They're objectively superior to the 4S17M in every way except thickness and an active warranty. I get the weight issue though. You'll need to throw some money at the problem to get lighter IVs.Your best upgrade would be a pair of Hesco 4601s if you don't mind a thicker plate. Sierra has them on sale for $900/set last I checked. Active NIJ cert, 6.6lb SAPI M or 6.4lb 10x12.People tend to jump to the Highcom 4S16 as an upgrade from the 4S17M. I wouldn't. It just got outed that Apex Armor Solutions lied and the 4S16 does not have drop protection.If you're brave, Gilliam's lineup is in pic rel.
body armor faggots are intolerable. go to /fa/ or whatever.
>>64636657This shit is all they talk about in /gq/ and now it's here, too

>>64636758>Overt gear is fucking stupid.Don't worry, they make covert plates too if you're so inclined.

>>64636857You're no fun. Do you hate plates? Both gym and the armored variety?
>>64636816I require one daughter per gig. I hope you planned ahead.
>>64636830mead
>>64636839Well I had one on this very lower as u know but every time I shot naked/shirtless, not in gear, etc. it sucked and dug into my chest. Kek it looks HARD as hell I agree but waffle stock's angle just agrees with me
>>64636869Now imagine the soft supple feel of a sopmod.

>>64636902>I also have level 4 hescosNice, 4403s, 4401s, or something more pimped? Protech 2230s here. I run them "Russian style" with climate panels so the BFD numbers hang lower than deez nuts.By the way if anyone here bought those Battle Steel plates I hope you like BFD over 44mm and no drop protection.
>>64636873LOOK it just doesn't look contrast the urgi okay? I like the old vs new like someone grabbed an ol lower with a clapped out barrel from an armory and slapped a new urgi from a killed nafo death squad member or some shit. It's insane but I hope you understand the vision, it's environmental storytelling as a gun
>>64636830eggnog & rompope this time of year. probably a lot of toilet wine and whatever we can loot from r*dditors if shtf
>>64636919I understand now. It would stand out more if the whole lower was painted.
>>64636939You're right it's been itching for a repaint but only the lower. That would probably go a long way. Currently in the southeast, lush greens and urban sprawl, what's the move camo wise? I'm open to inspo

>>64636618Would you replace 1199MC with the 4600s?
What's the current meta for "gud enuf" NV-compatible red dot? Doesn't need to SHTF-worthy, this is for guest rifles.
>>64636987I use my holosun with my 14 just fine
>>64636987T2
>>64636914Idk I don’t want to get out of bed and look but I’ll check in the morning.>>64636987I have a holosun on my Glock and a T2 on my AR and there is no immediate difference between the two though I haven’t done a thorough analysis it’s more like when I look through the holosun it’s fine and when I look through the T2 it’s also fine.NV performance really just means >can the dot get dim enough >is the dot size small enough 1 & 2 MOA dots are good for NV use and while I haven’t gone larger than that I would imagine they’re less good and get in the way but idk since I don’t go for big dots
>>64636982The 1199 or 1155? First gen 1199 (4.4lb) was cheat ringed and should be replaced ASAP. Second gen is okay-ish. Not a very robust plate but light.1155 is bad and 1155MC is also not great. The 4600s are NIJ suspended and are not going to stop M2AP reliably, just like the first gen RMA 1155.Look to the Hesco 4403 for an 1155 replacement. 1199 Hesco 4800 or, if you can accept lost drop protection, Protech 9812-R1. Do note with the lightweight boron carbide Level IVs that they're especially weak to tungsten threats versus their heavier Alumina or SiC counterparts. If M995 / M993 is an issue you'll need to look to other plates than the above.
>>64636991What model? I've got an AEMS that does pretty well but was looking at the AROs
>>646370101155MC my bad. Appreciate the write up, I'll take a look at your suggestions >>64637013403B. I can get a pretty good view of the dot and it dims down really low too
>>64637013Bradsfacts says the ARO works with nvI’m trying to decide if the multi reticle is worth $30 over the dor
>>64637029$30 is very little might as well give yourself more options. I don't know about you but I almost never sell or get ride of optics.
>>64637021Glad to help. 4403MC is a straight upgrade from the 1155MC. Protech 2230 is a straight upgrade again but you have to buy them expired / second hand.A big move would be Hesco 4601s. Sierra has them on sale for $900 a set. Lighter, more robust, better multi hit versus 4403.Also reexamine what threats you need to stop. Is Level IV overkill and can you get away with an M855A1 + M80 plate like the Hesco 3411 / LTC 19513? Do you need more protection than IV? (Gilliam 8002, Adept Colossus, surp XSAPI)
>>64637050But the brown one looks so cooool
>>64636830Natural Ice.
>>64636830a pepsi
>>64637052That does look cool. Unless your rifle is tan/brown or painted id go black on black anyways. I'm a big fan or 65/68 moa circle dot.
>>64637064Black upper and lower with all tan furniture and black mbus.
>>64637073That can look good

Hey guys you know where I think we should drop that atomic bomb we have lying around?
Thermal overlay, non dominant eye or dominant eye and why?
>>64637754Thermal overlay or a separate thermal scanner giving you an independent dual set up with pvs14 one eye and thermal on the other?
>>64637786 Not what I asked. No wonder this is a dead general
>>64638029crazy almost like this is /arg/ not /nvg/ you dum bitch
>>64637754whichever side causes less problems, such as when passive aiming
>>64637754nonbecause idk
I hate my urgi. Should have just spent a little more for a super duty.
>>64638092both are shit
>>64638097How so? I won't lie, my urgi is basically just a cheaper feeling version of my dd mk18. Yeah it's lighter but I'm just bench shooting anyway...
What's a good brass casing resistant finish? Shit dents steel, it's no joke.
>>64638105Anything but whatever spray can bullshit h&k does for the sp5.
maybe I should just bacon wrap my entire gun, make it scratch proof
>>64636306>You've spent more on things you never use.Whotf are you? Get out of my head!
will post the dented t2 aimpoint when I win the powerball jackpot
>>64636375>Without those material goods my life isn't worth livingI totally agree, but without the RIGHT THINGS you are fucking up and probably have too much of the WRONG things. No judgements, just saying.
>>64636497You should try Arizona weather for 1/12 months. Just make it the right month!
>>64637754Non-dominant if aiming with a sight because the COTI won't be able to see through your optic (thermals can't see through glass). If aiming by laser dominant.
>>64636564Just like the actual protection level.
holy shit the Sig Sauer Romeo 8T-AMR combo is a game changer
>>64636692>This shit is all they talk about in /gqAmen. Shit up the thread with hypotheticals.

>>64638102>I'm just bench shooting anyway...so why does it matter then?
>>64636802>Are Warne QD mounts ok?Better than Leopold, better than ok.
>>64638166because he said it feels like cheap shit?
>>64638166It doesn't. But people hyped it up so much I thought it was gonna be better than what I ended up with.
Why should I buy from LaRude Tactical?

>>64638220MLok stands for Magpul Lok
>>64638138I see everyone always put it over their dominant eye but that was my thought too. Non dom is better
>>64638239Lok stands for Lock
>>64638102>cheaper feeling version of my dd mk18.how so
brand new psa haven't fired yet, anything i should know about these? watched some youtube vids and the price was crazy cheap so seemed like a good entry level option.
>>64638251yeah, they're for poors
I can't believe I fell for the suppressor meme (0 use cases for range toys)>inb4 muh hearing protectionum your earpros?
>>64638251U likely don't have the tools to QC but if you have the tools to disassemble the upper to retorque the barrel you would be solving a lot of problems ahead of time. Besides that assume the first 1000 rounds are a """break-in"""" period for problems to arise.
break in periods are a meme
>>64638269i have some basic hand tools and a cleaning kit, what's the deal with re torquing?
>>64638290yes which is why it's in quotes. The break in period refers to expect small issues to creep if the rifle isn't assembled but can take hundreds of rounds to manifest
>>64638292It's likely the barrel is over torqued, which will throw off a lot of stuff just enough to cause compounding problems that lead to early failure.
>>64638251>price was crazy cheap so seemed like a good entry level option.They are, excellent choice. Protip, donfuck up the weight advantage by adding a bunch of useless tinkertoy crap!
>>64638245Now I can die with peace in my heart.
>>64638304something i dont have is a good workspace to do this kinda stuff, would i be better off just going to a gunsmith for a tune up or they gonna rip me off?
>>64638313this one is a "pistol" and it's meant to kinda look like the commando from CoD black ops. it's gonna stay barebones like this til i get a 300AAC upper
>>64638321>i dont have is a good workspaceWhy are you buying guns, if you don't have a kitchen table to rebuild a carburstor on?
>>64638335i mean i don't have things like a vise or whatever but yeah i could lay it out on a table or something
you don't need a vise, just use your thighs
>>64638349just hand tight is good enough?

>>64638353....no, don't you own a torque wrench or something?
>>64638349>vice like thighs Mmmm.
>>64638375yeah i got things like that, so just tighten enough to where it stops and don't push it?
oh my fucking GOD
>>64638381She sure ain't got em
>>64638353pop the handguards off real quick (no tools required just pull the delta ring down) and see if the barrel nut is loose. If you can't move it by hand then it's probably fine
you can also use your fat ass as a vise if you sit on your rifle
>>64638400I prefer light meat.
>>64638412>If you can't move it by hand then it's probably fineJesus fuck, Bubba.>>64638384The right way is to torque your barrel nut, loosen, retorque your barrel nut, loosen again, and give it a final torque to set it.

>>64638173As much as he is the embodiment of peak boomer his company manufactures really good products
>>64638531What's wrong with peak boomer? Jealous they can retire?
>>64638535Peak Boomers arent retiring though theyre still working because they foolishly thought they didnt need to save.

>>64638561Im not assuming I havent seen any boomer retire at my company in the laat 5 years.
>>64638568that's because they actually enjoy working and being productive, while zoomers cannot wait to die
anti boomers are just like antisemites, they seethe when someone else is successful and enjoying life.
>>64638571Im sure they do love being miserable wagies.
>>64638577Please don't group us with anti-boomers
>>64638581>miserablethey don't share the same mindset as subhuman zoomers
Boomers are gonna work until they die because 95% of their money is wrapped up in their house and the options are sell to Blackrock and rent a space 25% the size or sidegrade and be house poor in a retirement community.
>>64638592zoomers will end themselves like the subhuman they are

>>64638610That implies the boomer hasnt already done that. The lucky ones are aelling their houses, most are gonna get their finances one shot by chronic diseases that pop up in their 70s and 80s. Unironically theres gonna be boomers working in McDonalds for Insulin money.
Why are blue collar shitters always ripping people off? Gunsmiths, plumbers, mechanics, fucking hell, what's their problem?
>>64638635My only hesitation is that it's a 6arc and adding a bag rider and a riser to a CTR is trying to make the stock into something it's really not designed to be and the rest of the magpul lineup is dog ugly. The thing will live mostly on a tripod/bag.
>>64638640it's kind of economically incentivized. If they got more business and were more common it would drive prices down but as it stands they basically only exist now to fuck over the boomers/zoomies dumb enough to pay $100 to zero their sights until you build enough ifykyk clout to found a company like Gay Dynamics or Faggots Solutions >>64638475Imagine you skull slowly being crushed in a stock vise
>>64638251Just shoot it.
>>64638638BigBestie said he’d give me a screamin deal of only $120 to build my upper for me if I mail him my parts. I just have to pay shipping both ways plus tip.
>>64638568one guy "retired" at my work. literally died in the office at his desk out of the blue one day.
>>64638638>I'm one of them>part of the problemYou're not helping. Why is that, Leon?
I think sig really struck gold with the 8T-AMR.
>>64638667you jest but I would never charge my frens or family for work >>64638680I get angry and attack you and save the turtle
>>64638651Because theres always some rich asshole who will pay 400 bucks to unclog a drain.
>>64638614Most of the ones around here are really friendly. Some even initiate small talk on their own. Maybe 15% are like the online stereotypes.
>>64638672>literally died in the officeI've know people who should have retired, that died at work. And people who retired that died in less than a year. I cannot imagine being on your death bed and saying>i wish i could have worked one more day!I think they have a fear of scarcity that comes from an independant, "help yourself" attitude. Most youger people expect entitlements. MOST.
>>64638693There's no purpose to life without work. It's why entitled zoomers become drug addicts.
>>64638667>only $120 to build my upper>$120/hr>dealYeah.
>>64638667You can just buy the equipment needed to build it yourself at harbor freight for less than that...
>>64638702>no purpose to life without workTotally disagree, there needs to be a shifting of priorities and energy. >start training Heelers for the Purina Challenge>start a marksmanship program>join a hiking group>travel to ever National Park>double down and hit every National MonumentGood God, I could go on...>t. Already doing it.
>>64638714when did HF start selling reaction rods and barrel nut wrenches?
>>64638667everyone knows u just stand on the mag and vice grip the gas block to torque a barrel nut silly>>64638684the real invoice was the frens we made along the way>>64638705>>64638714i would trust bigboss with my life which is worth less than a measily $120
>>64638748>my life which is worth less than a measily $120Or just buy a mag for your gun, Josh.
>>64638693My dads going to work until he dies, not because he needs to but because its all he knows and what gives him purpose. As much as my mom would hate me for saying this i hope he is never forced to retire, that will spiritually kill him. He used to play a ton of hockey but he had to stop at 62 when he fucked up his shoulder trying to fuck up some other cunt. He doesnt fish, hunt, shoot, play an instrument, do art or anything like that. He just works, sleeps, watches hockey and some history shit on youtube, reads the news, and works on his house. Thats all he wants to do and anything else is a major inconvenience to him. Hes a good dude but i cant imagine a life so dull. He doesnt have any friends and doesnt want any, he says friends just want shit from you.
>>64638631I have the ACS which is similar to the UBR. I replaced it and prefer the CTR.
>>64638693I mean if you like your job it's not a bad way to go out. Maybe not as good as heart failure while doing two goth chicks at the same time or dying in glorious battle but by modern standards not bad
>>64638764what does a magazine have to do with a gun!
>>64638765>Hes a good dude but i cant imagine a life so dull. He doesnt have any friends and doesnt want any, he says friends just want shit from you.Yeah, the older I get, I can understand why the Grinch just wants to live by himself on a mountain. And for your dad, that's what he wants, because that's what he knows. I have an eclectic brace of interests. 2025, I will read the Robert E Howard canon, get my '62 convertible running, (put 10k mi on it), maybe get my Shovelhead running, ride up to North Dakota and harass some buffalos, maybe flirt with some squaws. Maybe go back to work? lol.
>>64638692Here also, my kids are zoomers and have large friend groups that hate their phones, go camping, off roading and shooting, there is hope outside the internet.
>>64638786Depends upon the magazine.
>>64638251Pull the upper off hold it pointing down, With the dustcover open. Lift the bolt then drop it or horizontal push the bcg forwards slowly. if it hangs up at all send it back they fucked up and canted the barrel.
how come no one uses magpul flip up irons anymore? (the plastic ones)
>>64638836The plastic in them made everyone troon out
>>64638859@grok is this true?
>>64638702Work was only important when people had families. Now that no one has kids theres no reason to devote yourself to a job.
>>64638862@Anon yes I am a pretty princess now
>>64638883yeah there is, this cocksucking semen slurping hobby requires money
>>64638862Yes
>>64638888Still cheaper than daycare
>>64638651It really depends on who I'm working for. If it's some poor family, the most I'm going to charge is $50 to do some simple service work, and not make any money. The boomer will be charged anywhere between $150-$300, depending on how much he annoys more while I'm working. And as a zoomer, I automatically charge the millennial $400 just because I don't like you retards. The gen x guys are usually alright.
>>64638902BBB
>>64638902>as a zoomeraren't you like 30?
>>64638475In the words of the NIJ, less effective armor is still better than no armor.
>>64638944Don't know who you think I am, but no, I'm 25.
>>64638902Seeing that most poor families would be Millennials because theyd be younger parents, nice larp.
I am a poverty lord aint paid the bills in fo months
Its always funny watching zoomers upset with the world lashing out at others without a hint of irony. The cycle continues thanks to your generation.
>>64639006zoomers are subhuman, we know
>tfw built a nice and light pistol build>wanna fuck it up with a laser, light, and thermals againwhat is my problemo
>>64638862I feel pretty and i hate those plastic turds.
>>64638971It depends, the range for poor families is older millennials and younger gen xers. The younger millennials who have kids are comfortable but only have a couple of kids at most. The poor millennials don't have kids at all. If someone is poor, I'll overlook their generation cause I grew up knowing what that is like. But as the economy worsens, I get less calls from the poor. But I will rape anyone of you guys if you're too stupid to do your own work.
>>64638944Why would I say something so silly unironically

Is the burn proof rail rap worth the price?
>>64639263No, it's just another grift like most gun accessories these days
I'm seething
>>64639338When aren't you seething?
.
I feel like having an AR, having plenty of ammo and actually practicing with it is becoming more and more important
>>64639449why?
The year? 2045. The place? Mega-Idawoa. A2's razed yet another city on his warpath to Canaan. I follow behind his hordes, watching the embers from afar.
I'm torn, should I get super duty upper or just build my own. would cost about the same
>>64639474Just look at the state of this country.You'll definitely need something to not only protect yourself and your family, but also put food on the table
>>64639415>rez desert tiger stripe camoActually love it!
>>64639506>super dookie upperWtf you need super dookie upper that std upper need not apply?
>>64639554honestly just for a pre-built upper with the geissele barrel, which I was gonna use anyway
>>64639340Tuesdays is good for me.
>>64639475>A2Someone needs to stop that guy, before it's too late.
>>64639563>geisseleSurely there are better for the $$?
>>64639587Nah they're comparable to criterion barrels but CHF rather than button
>>64639533country has gone through way worse. if shit really goes bad you will be conscripted and issued an MOS.
The OR firebrand mitts came in today. I ordered them in my normal glove size but they definitely run on the small side.Might have to grab a pair of XLs
>>64639614>MOSWhat?
>>64639608>comparable to criterion barrelsI accept this img as a decent rifle, and mockers be damned.
>>64639645nothing wrong with the classics
>>64639628Military Occupational Specialty aka your job. "Military" in this case is not necessarily the literal United States Armed Forces but whatever the equivalent organized force in your region happens to be after shit has popped off. Although obviously if anything did pop off the US armed forces are almost certainly going to be the biggest organization anyways (barring a 1861 style succession that divides the armed forces).
>>64639614>issued an MOS>>64639628Metal Oxide Silicon. He means a chip implanted in your head. Commonly associated with the "mark of the beast" in fundamental religions. You will be the Spawn of Satan. Oh, and don't let him lie to you, he works for the Great Deceiver.
holy shit guys i just watched a gerand thumb video
>>64639659He's lying already. SATAN GET BEHIND ME!
>>64639668enjoy your steroid-induced hair loss and divorce
>>64639668You are now a smooth and fast operator. Are you gaining weight yet?
>>64639475>plate carrier over the cape >ACOG>no light, no LAM, no red dot 1xYeah you’re not in A2’s rectum raiders
>>64639662in the grim darkness of the future shiggy diggy MOS codes are stamped into your equipment that are assigned out Stalingrad style. Like 3381 would be stamped into the fry pans or whatever. >>64639668nice bro how's your impregnation rate looking
>>64639687actually yea, I went to the gym and noticed in mirror that I have a little belly and have gained 12 pounds. time to cut back on beer and soft drinks.
>>64639415Drippy Qilo sherp. May get in on the frogskin preoder
>>64639506You know what you gotta do
>>64639751Faggot!
Not sure if im chasing the dragon here, but is there any point in getting an adjustable gas block for a 10.5 SBR? I already have:>flow through can (Velos LBP)>gas busting charging handle (GMS-15)Honestly the gas isn't too bad, the charging handle does a ton of work. Before I got it, I would get tons of shit stuck up my nose within 1 mag.
>>64639811it will be done>>64639825what barrel/upper? I would personally say no but YMMV
>>64639835Colt barrel. 10.3"* actually, .070 gas port. I've been told its crane spec but I don't know what the means exactly
>>64639857>crane specgenerally the go-to for 10.3".I would say if you can tolerate it don't worry about it, but I'm just a dude on the internet
>>64639857>>64639872crane spec means a smaller gas port, intended for use with a suppressor
>>64639872I'll take your word for it. Like I said, gas isn't too bad and I don't really care about min-maxing it
a crane spec 10.3” colt barrel just flew over my house!!!

When nas3 coming back
If we conclude that most people who would likely be considered subject matter experts on this platform that sell a product are going to give you a biased take (Reed Knight, Mark LaRue, Bill, Jim Hodge, Mike Mihalski, etc) then who would you consider an expert on the AR platform outside of Stoner himself? I've been reading a lot of Frank Wood's articles (Tasker Network) and generally like what he says but he's also painfully autistic about gay things much of the time.
>>64640223>he didnt stalk up last release
>>64640257me
>>64640257The era of thoughtful discussion died with blogs and forums. Anybody who has something enlightening to say is trying to sell you something.

>>64636950What light and switch plug do you have on that (the bit on the rear for the crane /LA23), looks neat
>>64640551>World collapsing right as adult age is reached>Boomers deciding they'd rather set the world on fire on the way out instead of accepting they're irrelevant>Millennials foisted culture war dogshit on everyone for over a decade instead of fixing anything >Xers more or less the same but a tad less insufferable about itGee I wonder

>>64640838So you blame everyone because of some blue haired tumblr faggots.
