Looking for a grade 10.9 metric bolt in store today

Looking for in store, not online. I need them asap.

Looking for M12-1.25 x 40mm class 10.9 bolts. Having a hard time finding metric, and the ones I do find are not 10.9

Checked Home Depot (Gilmore), Rona (Renfrew and Edmonds) and Canadian tire (Rupert and Market crossing) no luck. Anyone have a suggestion in Burnaby or close?

Odometer number incorrect on insurance form, noticed months later

I got insurance on my new (used) car. Just looking at my form and noticed the insurance place input my odometer reading 10,000 km less than I told them. It’s been like 4-5 months.

Was wondering if it’s going to cause issues down the road. Plan on contacting them on Monday

Idea for a gauntlet style game mode

It would be fun to have a gauntlet style game mode where instead of preset loadouts, the game randomizes weapon loadouts where everyone has the same weapons.

For example, knives only and everyone running around with knives fighting to do the objectives. Or RPG only, or pistols only, etc

I think it would be hilarious and a blast

Has the M12 soldier iron been updated?

All I’m finding are terrible reviews from 2+ years ago, nothing current. It went on sale at my local store was thinking of picking one up. I know there’s other soldier irons out there (I have a pinecil V2 adapted to M18) but I wanted something running off M12 all in one contained unit with no wires.

Anyone know if they redesigned it in the past two years? Common issue seemed to be the plastic retaining collar melting and the resistor burning out.

Isn’t it extremely nerve-racking to approach a vehicle with tinted windows?

For traffic stops, I imagine tinted windows would be terrifying. You can’t see the situation you might get into. Approaching a vehicle you can’t see how many are in there, if there’s firearms present, etc

Here in Canada we can’t have tinted driver, passenger and windshield. Which I think is completely fair, not only officer safety but being able to communicate with eye contact or hand waves as another driver.

Did the KTS get a nerf last update?

I remember at one point every single person was running one in BR, now I very rarely see them.

I did notice a bunch of other LMGs got significantly better. What’s the best LMG in the current state?

My mod 2 didn’t come with mlok foregrip?

I received my mod 2. It has the less curved trigger, pro lifter and removable choke. But it didn’t come with the foregrip with the mlok slots. The ODG one is the one I got, and the black one is the same model (but has mlok).

Is there a reason? Did I get the older generation of mod 2?

Edit: After some digging I found this info, I’ll keep my posting up incase another Canadian runs into the same question.

“Canadian-market versions of the 1301 Mod 2 sometimes ship without the extended magazine tube or the M-LOK handguard (relying instead on a standard forend and a 5+1 capacity) due to local regulations.”

Are Mod 1, gen 2 accessory options limited?

Looking to change out my hand guard and stock. I can’t find much info in terms of what fits mod 1, gen 2.

Last thing I want is to order something that only works with the mod 2. Or are they all the same fitment? Was just concerned because I was reading another post where someone was saying the mod 1 needs adaptors

Beretta 1301 doesn’t come with Velcro sticker (for shot card)?

Upon receiving my 1301 Mod. 2, I noticed it didn’t come with a Velcro receiver card, and I was wondering if it was supposed to. I ask because my A300 Ultima Patrol came with one.

Normally it wouldn’t be a big deal, just slap some Velcro, but the one included with the A300 UP was laser cut to match the receiver outline perfectly. If the 1301 isn’t supposed to come with one, that’s a little disappointing considering it’s Beretta’s higher end model.

Timing off? Misfire letting off a high speed

1993 Suzuki Sidekick 1.6L 8v G16A

If the timing belt is off by one notch, can the engine seem perfectly fine at low to medium speeds but misfire (POP noise) when letting off at high speed? I just did my timing belt, alternator belt, and power steering belt. Everything has been running smoothly, but a couple weeks later I noticed that when I’m going about 110+ km/h with the pedal fully pressed, the engine will sometimes misfire as I ease off the pedal.

I’m not sure if it could be my timing. I’m trying to avoid pulling the radiator again just to check it. The spark plugs, ignition wires, and distributor are all under a year old with very light driving. My kickdown cable is old could that possibly be the issue?

Seller got regular oil changes, lots of sludge in engine

2002 Chevy Tracker 2.0l J20a

I bought a used car, looks immaculate inside and out with no leaks. Heard some rattle on startup figured it was the chain tensioner something I can figure out. Previous elderly lady owner owned it 15 years and regularly got oil changes every 5000 km, she had a book of all the receipts and was telling the truth. I opened it up and found lots of black sludge, looks like a lot of missed oil changes. My guess is Jiffy Lube lied to her and skipped a bunch.

I’m going to clean the sludge as best I can, then do few oil changes every 1000-2000km, then run seafoam through the oil and air intake. I’ve attached pictures not sure how much damage has been done and wondering what you think.

Extending the M18 vacuum hose without modifying existing hose?

Everything I can find involves unscrewing thread on the end of the original hose and threading in an adaptor.

I want a longer hose that I can slide onto the attachment end of the original hose to extend it. Is there a hose like that? I don’t mind modifying the third party extension hose, has someone 3D printed an adaptor that can thread onto a third party hose?

Was the WS MCR just as bad as the WK 180?

I never got a chance to own any, I was wondering if WS MCR better than the WK180? What about the Lynx 180?

Was the AR180 platform just bad overall? What failed often on it?

Thinking of leaving my cheek hairs, bad idea?

I had to shave for a respirator fitting, now growing it back. Usually I trim my cheeks but this time I’m thinking of leaving it as is.

Do you think it’s a bad look? Trying to figure out from someone else’s perspective

Tight brake pads question

1993 Suzuki Sidekick 8v

Is it common for ends of the brake pads to be just a bit too tight even when lubricated?

The calibers are brand new, so there’s no dirt or grit in there. I was thinking of filing the brake pad ends a bit, or is that a bad idea?

Pro Boondock lace vs BOA

I’ve been wearing Timberland Pro Boondock lace work boots the past 10ish years, replacing them with new ones when they wear out. I liked them a lot.

Saw there was a BOA tightening system version, figure I’d give them a try. Been wearing them for a few days and they feel horrible. It doesn’t tighten evenly, and it’s either too tight or too loose.

-On the seam left and right of the tongue there’s connector flaps which dig into the top of my foot. The lace version had these too but I couldn’t feel them.

-My heels are rubbing raw, maybe because of the uneven BOA system I’m getting heel lift. Sizing is correct it’s the same size I’ve always worn with the same socks.

-In order to get somewhat of an even tighten, I have to put them on and tighten, walk a bit to even out the BOA webbing then tighten it again. I do this 3-4 times before it’s ok feeling.

Anyone else have these issues and have a solution? I’d return these but it’s too late/used.

▲ 260 r/burnaby

“Burnaby is adding a new all-direction crossing at a busy Metrotown intersection to improve safety. The scramble will let pedestrians cross in every direction, including diagonally, while all vehicle traffic is stopped. It’s planned for Central Boulevard near Metropolis at Metrotown, one of the busiest pedestrian areas in the city.”

I’m unsure how I feel about this. I’d rather just a pedestrian bridge again, not introduce a concept drivers have no practice with in one of the worst intersections in the city.
