Hello I am Falsedawn.

And I like @Sketch.

Motherfucker.

 

[LangfordBarrow]

No clue but I still might have a photo of R3ZNOR on a photobucket account somewhere...


Also found this video of @Sholum

@SBJJ you might want to be careful. We have some very dangerous Jews around these parts.

And they don't like racists

Pinning his scarf to the pinboard was genius.

He was still living upstairs with his parents into his 30's? What a loser. I moved into my mom's basement at 27.

If you're single, paying cheap rent to live at home is the lick of the century imo. I wish I would have done it longer.

I'm getting an MPX K. Was looking at the BFS3, but @A.C. mentioned DigiTrigger, so I'm up in the air right now.

If you know anything better, I'm all ears.

The Fostech Echo doesn't play nice with the Sig, and the digitrigger hasn't been properly vetted in the wild. Not to mention it's gonna be weird in digi-mode with a 1lb pull and no mechanical feel to it. The MPX is known to be hard on aftermarket triggers due to high carrier velocity. Many folks though have had success with the BFSIII. Especially with the price difference, I'd go Franklin Armory.

@Falsedawn @Cubo de Sangre

I WANT THAT UPPER FOR MY PISTOL BUILD. GAH! Only annoying thing is that when buying it from DD (minus the like $1100 price tag) is it's a government profile barrel which means it's going to be on the heavier side. Ggggrrrr

Aren't you like 300 lbs? What's a little extra weight on the barrel?

I am but I’ve gotten real used to how light my 14.5 pencil barrel feels.

BUT, it’s 10.3 inches and a Daniel Defense so..... looking past it

I’m a cop. If you don’t want to get hurt, don’t challenge me.

Am I supposed to hate this? Idk despite the literally horrible clickbait headline and sub-header there's not too much I disagree with in there after a quick read. I think he could be a little more empathetic towards regular citizens but I generally agree that both sides should be more empathetic. He could also use fewer absolutes.

He says he's been in danger in many circumstances and most often been able to diffuse or deescalate the situation, so idk why the headline would be stated the way it is. I feel like this author is probably a good cop who got too defensive in writing this, and then the editors added the stupid headline to get clicks. I hate the title, but while I don't love it I also don't really hate the article.

What's the actual difference in weight between the barrel profiles?

I saw where they released an MPX specific BFS3 since it is hard on triggers relatively soon in the ownership life, so I think I'm gonna go in that direction. I'd ultimately like to keep it under $3k, but I'm really not sweating it for good quality parts. Just gotta take care of some professional business and I'm gonna dole out for it as celebration. I'm more than a little bit excited about it.

1.15 lbs for the DD 10.3 government profile

1.15 lbs for the Faxon Firearms 14.5 inch I have on my current build

 

[TeTe]

Ah shit
Did I miss a "fight me irl"?

We had another Brawnyman/JMKad situation

Then to me the BFS is a no-brainer. If you're not in a hurry then maybe drag your feet for black Friday sales. What optic are you eyeing?

@A.C., you running a binary on something?

1.15 lbs for the DD 10.3 government profile

1.15 lbs for the Faxon Firearms 14.5 inch I have on my current build

Looks like the real difference is gonna be balance.

 

[Gregolian]

Everything I have seen is that it's a tad front heavy but ultimately not so much it's unusable.

Since all my shit has to be 16", that's hard to believe.

 

[Gregolian]

lol.

To be fair a lot of the guys that say it feels front heavy... also have like DBALs or MAWLs and lights and shit on the front.

I'd just pull off the muzzle device, drop a Dead Air brake on it, and then like a Cloud Defense light and that'd be it.

There is A LOT I hate and I think you should hate. I'm going to use some GIF's to illustrate my own emotional reactions.

1. "No officer goes out in the field wishing to shoot anyone, armed or unarmed."

He starts out with just a shameless lie. If you have any exposure to large police forces (he does), you know there are plenty of cowboy wannabe-bad asses with authority complexes. There are plenty of instances, despite the difficulty that the public has in getting any remotely thorough investigations into cops, of officers reveling in the chance to beat up civilians and even being glad that "nobody can tell us apart!!!!" so they can be even more liberated.
​

2. "Working the street, I can’t even count how many times I withstood curses, screaming tantrums, aggressive and menacing encroachments on my safety zone, and outright challenges to my authority."

Wow, outright challenges to your authority??? My god, the thought!
​

3. "One time, for instance, my partner and I faced a belligerent man who had doused his car with gallons of gas and was about to create a firebomb at a busy mall filled with holiday shoppers. The potential for serious harm to the bystanders would have justified deadly force."

Could you at least maybe think of a scenario that actually involved imminent threat of death? A guy lighting a car on fire shouldn't have even made your trigger finger itch considering that the worst case scenario was that he'd light the match and you'd have minutes before the gas tank ignited.
​

4. "We are still learning what transpired between Officer Darren Wilson and Brown, but in most cases it’s less ambiguous — and officers are rarely at fault."

Oh, cool. Glad we got that settled. Hundreds of unarmed people are killed every year by police, but it's rarely the officers' fault. Nothing conclusory or moronic about that.
​

5. "Even though it might sound harsh and impolitic, here is the bottom line: if you don’t want to get shot, tased, pepper-sprayed, struck with a baton or thrown to the ground, just do what I tell you."

Hmm, yeah, the constitution is supposed to protect against arbitrary use of force by the government. And, while you seem tooootally reasonable and wouldn't throw your weight around, maybe consider that plenty of your meathead colleagues aren't so retrained. So how about: if you want to keep carrying a gun on the public dole, you calm the fuck down and don't kill anybody, you fragile bitch.
​

6. "An average person cannot comprehend the risks and has no true understanding of a cop’s job."

Yes they can, you self-aggrandizing cunt. Plenty of us have experienced dangerous environments. The only difference is that we weren't armed to the teeth and allowed to use deadly force against anyone we want with no earthly consequences.
​

Honestly, it takes a HUGE granting of the benefit of the doubt for someone who is remotely familiar with urban policing to think this dude isn't being a hack. Come to St. Louis, see giant armies of cops chanting "WHOSE STREETS? OUR STREETS" as they beat the shit out of unarmed protesters so liberally that they end up hospitalizing an undercover cop, and tell me these are just scared snowflakes wanting to me home with their wives and kids.

 

[PolishHeadlock2]

Almost had it

 

[SBJJ]

@SBJJ do you have any evidence you would not get your ass whooped?

Yea. That hes been reduced to saying he'd shoot me.

Crazy but what can you do. With the new firearm laws this seems pretty dumb. But he is being egged on and likely does not realize the harm hes bringing to himself and the site
