Grew out my beard a little. Should I keep it or shave it?

Id be here all day if I listed all of them,

1.Mike Ehrmantraut is the epitome of this. Dosnt know how to propely hold a rifle or a handgun, his finger is always on the trigger when he holds a gun. And he usually beats everyone easily because of his knowledge and experience from being in the military and being a police officer.but they didnt even bother to give the actor playing him basic firearms training.

2. Laura croft from tomb raider,

Finger is always on trigger. And many other obvious reasons.

3. Any jason Statham movie.

Finger on the trigger always/ improper holding of weapons. I honestly dont even think hes ever shot a real gun in his life. Because he dosnt even try to fake recoil when he shoots.

I swear every year youtube tries its best to get a little bit worse. And they really outdid them selves with these recent long adds that arnt skippable.

I tried to draw it, I should of took a picture. But I was installing a johnny glock trigger into my gun. The spring came off the slide release. When i went to put it back. There was a small cylinder piece of plastic inside the spring. I put the small cylinder back inside the spring and reconnected the spring. And it seems to function fine. I tested it on a empty mag and it locked up like it's supposed to. I was told it was a glock oem slide release. But I see glock dosnt put a piece of plastic inside the slide release spring. Unless there is something im missing?

I normally carry a custom micro dagger which is the size of G43x. But I carry a lcp 2 when im in the gym. I cant really waist band carry when im doing squats and stuff. I was about to buy a body guard 2.0 for a gym gun. But ive heard a abnormal amount of people complaining about reliability lately with the 2.0 lately. So im assuming maybe bad batches. The lcp 2 is reliable and concealable but thats about the only good things I can say about it tbh.

I dont know how to describe it with the lcp 2 but if you put pressure on the trigger side ways when pulling the trigger, the trigger safety will get stuck and not let you pull it until you completely let go of the trigger and I really dont like that.

So im trying to replace it with something better.

If you have any other suggestions.

Mininum smallest caliber I'll go is 380 tho.

I got done with this mask and sprayed clear coat over it. But i think it looks too shiny now. Is there any clear coat that dosnt look too shiny?

Ive heard of people cracking old 1911 frames around the 6k -10k round range. Which kind of turned me off to them because i shoot thousands of rounds a year. But I recently found out they didnt heat treat many of the early ones like they do today. I have a lot of modern self defense pistols. But I want something thats metal and has a nice trigger pull now. I like working on guns also and 1911s seem to one of the few full metal pistols with a nice trigger pull that has plenty of after market parts on the market.

I shot about 300 rounds of +p through my micro dagger that i replaced the internals with oem g 43x parts. and it gave my trigger finger a blister that made it hard to shoot accurately after the first couple of mags. I have about 1800 rounds through the gun so its not a break in issue. Some people were saying a smooth trigger will prevent blistering. I shoot mine a lot so I want a comfortable trigger that is still reliable for self defense.

R/worldbuildingcrafts is the winner of our contest.

Congratulations and thank you for your story, in our opinion it was the best one.

Our next contest will be a Halloween scary story contest

Its obviously a freddy vs jason poster pic. But it looks like a part 7 mask that was repaired with chicken wire. I know part 7 was originally going to be freddy vs jason, maybe they made this image before making part 7. But I m curious if anyone has any info.

I bet that thing smells too

1500 word limit but if it goes slightly over thats fine.

Use the contest flair when posting please for consideration

Ive seen a lot of reliability issues lately with them lately. I wanted one as a good gym gun to replace my lcp 2. But I see reliability issues every day on here. I saw one guy had gouges on his feed ramps after 500 rounds of fmj. And im not even sure how thats possible tbh. Ive never seen a pistol get those issues before. Only rifles shooting steel tipped ammo.

1500 word maximum. But if it goes slightly over thats fine. Must be SCi-Fi horror based.
