    Rimfire Flow through suppessor

    Blowback systems are potentially even more susceptible to excessive backpressure. This is particularly true when we start using rimfire cans with rounds that have more ass than 22LR (note that most of these are rated for use with "magnum" rounds and 5.7x28). I picked up the HUXWRX FLOW 22 Ti a...

    The Shuttle that damn near blew up...

    A good example of why redundancy and a bit of extra performance margin are useful measures in safety- and mission-critical systems, even when the analysis suggests that the odds of failure are "acceptably low".

    Credit Card Co's that report to the Feds ?

    Imagine living in 2024 and not already understanding that every electronic transaction is being captured and reported to at least one federal agency.

    Maggie’s Garmin $3K watch

    Garmin also makes the Instinct which IMO is the best smart watch, and the first-gen version can be purchased for $199. I know watch guys like to think that wearing expensive jewelry will impress other dudes, but a $3200 "smart watch" to me is indication of a failed intelligence test. That...

    Who had Iran bombs Israel ?

    While I'd love to think that a decapitation strike would result in some sort of populist uprising that yields the sort of government that we were promised that Iraq would build 20 years ago, my guess is that we'd just get something that is actively worse. As bad as the Iranian current leaders...

    JD Vance Murders Walz live debate

    Thanks for the clarification, and agreed - the fawning over Pence was unearned. Heck, even after the man did nothing for four years (other than heading the White House response to Covid), a bunch of people still thought that he was going to be a white knight. The good news is that the uniparty...

    JD Vance Murders Walz live debate

    Using that metaphor and then immediately calling out sometime else as a "strange ass creep" is remarkable in its complete and total lack of self-awareness, even by Pit standards.

    JD Vance Murders Walz live debate

    I know that there must have been a 2016 VP debate between Kaine and Pence, but for the life of me I can't recall a single detail of the event or any discussion afterwards. If we're attempting to criticize people for past positions, I'm much more concerned about the vast number of Republicans...

    JD Vance Murders Walz live debate

    After watching JD give a masterclass during that debate, I really wish we'd given serious consideration to a younger candidate during the GOP primaries. This regret was further reinforced by whatever it was that Trump vomited up in response to the Iranian missile attack.

    Suppressors New TBAC cans for 2024

    Fuckin' autocomplete :ROFLMAO: I didn't get any pictures, but even the inside surface of the brake (the one that faces the suppressor) looks extremely cool. Hopefully I'll get a chance later this week to ruin it.

    SOLD Manners PRS-TCS Rem 700 SA RH stocks

    For sale are two Manners PRS-TCS stocks with mini chassis for right-hand short action Remington 700 and clones. Both were used for assembly mockups and that's it - they were never fired and are in like-new condition. Action screws are included but not shown, and each stock has two rail weights...

    Suppressors New TBAC cans for 2024

    I wish to file a complaint: This brake is almost too pretty to blast with powder residue.

    “BARREL MOVEMENT BEFORE THE BULLET EXITS”

    Depends - are you an engineer with a few minutes to burn between meetings? If so, there's almost no such thing as "inconsequential and sort of irrelevant".

    Anybody else hate the gym?

    Update: gyms still suck, weights are still heavy, I'm still trying to be better than yesterday. Set a couple new PRs today, which is cool because I've never been this old before and still setting PRs.
