@fribbledom I was wondering just who uses multi-material printers, and to what purpose. I never trusted them enough to incorporate into products. But just off-loading the scaffolding to PLA seems like a capital idea.
@phnt@p@lanodan@hfaust@sim@sun Looks like the old Taurus 85 Hammerless, before the slanted release. Also, left handed and unloaded, quite a combo all around.
@splitshockvirus@benis_redux I'm seeing a business opportunity here. KelTec reps said that unloading is only possibly by cycling through the action, like on Mauser C96. But I may be able to come up with an anti-stripper unloader. Jam it into the ejection port, and all rounds pour out into a sandwich bag.
@sun@Lyx@jeffcliff Keep in mind that resistance of safes is much decreased by battery-powered grinders. It works by melting, therefore no metal can resist it, no matter how hard. The only thing safes can offer anymore is being super thick. But that also makes them so heavy that normal houses cannot support them. It's a vault, not a safe. So I think the most important characteristic of a safe is a fire resistance. None of them offer much of burglar resistance.
@shibao I used to work for Red Hat, and they specifically prohibited employees from carrying. Fortunately, they never had any detectors, at least in the satellite offices.
@sun I suspect you may be facetous but I re-iterate: make her comfy. Double earpro. Scout locations ahead of time. Choose the most posh range available. Spurge on membership in order to bypass long check-in lines. You can only relax these measures if she's a sabagemu nut.
@YTFoidLover1488@sun About that, there's Howa-1500. It's doing mostly okay against basic Tikkas and the like. Especially the mini action for the .223 is in some ways better than Mossberg MVP. I cannot verify if it's actually built in Japan though. I'm kinda curious.
I built a Glock 19 using a Brownells brand slide, native milled for RMR. I bought somewhat tall sights for it. Not super tall, but taller than normal. But the RMR sits so deep on that slide that sights obscured a good half of the lens, The RMR-to-RMR plate lifts the sight just enough so that I can see the dot with something like lower 1/4 to 1/3 co-witness.
Reptilia intended that plate for some weird-ass shotgun application. It even had recoil pegs. And apparently it was so popular that they make a whole array of them in various colors and thicknesses: https://reptiliacorp.com/product/rof-riser-for-trijicon-rmr/
Today I would just print a little plate from Nyon, perhaps with a little spacer that transfers the recoil instead of the pegs. But that was then.
