Tragic, bad idea to go boating with new reveivers 😭 0/10 wouldn't recommend

> @[LA] Zoomer Medi/k/ do you happen to have the lower specs handy in a link? I could find them later
@Crye_Salesman

No, I don’t have the TDP.

2020-05-07 22:32:14 UTC  

Someone posted it already, thanks. Well the dimensions, not the tdp

2020-05-07 22:32:51 UTC  

The TDP is the shit

2020-05-07 22:32:55 UTC  

Just don’t know where to find.

2020-05-07 22:33:10 UTC  

Got some trigger time like 20 minutes ago. Worked on some things such as making mag changes without looking and keeping my damn eyes open even when shooting. Alleviated both.

Daddy Thumb gives some good advice, I'd recommend watching it whether you're all gucci'ed up or not. He doesn't even poor shame. Just good solid advice, especially for some of the newbies.

2020-05-08 00:09:18 UTC

2020-05-08 00:22:50 UTC

Lower I’m looking at buying. Aero lower and BCM parts kit. What do y’all think?

2020-05-08 01:48:31 UTC  

I think it's a decent purchase. Aero is decent Intermediate, haven't had any issues with them. And BCM never dissapoints.

2020-05-08 01:49:07 UTC  

I think it would work well.

2020-05-08 01:49:27 UTC  

Yup, Crye stamp of approval

2020-05-08 01:49:50 UTC  

Cool. My neighbor is a shooting instructor and he said it would be a good buy as well. I’m poor but I want to buy decent gear.

2020-05-08 01:50:11 UTC  

That is a great attitude and plan to have.

2020-05-08 01:50:19 UTC  

You have the SOTAR cult approval

Brownell's can eat of bag of dicks.

2020-05-08 01:52:58 UTC  

Not brownells fault at all but okay?

2020-05-08 01:53:04 UTC  

I’ve also been experimenting with home made armor. Saving up for RMA or Hoplite stuff but wanted to learn how to make halfway decent shit for if shit really really goes down. Pretty happy with this first plate. Gonna wack it with a 12ga magnum slug and a SKS this weekend. Happy with it so far.

2020-05-08 01:54:43 UTC  

I am simultaneously mad and impressed

2020-05-08 01:55:39 UTC  

Why are you mad lol?

2020-05-08 01:56:01 UTC  

@Crye_Salesman
I know it's not their fault, but still BS.

2020-05-08 01:56:03 UTC  

Because I would generally consider that to be a terrible idea, but your product and results actually look decent

2020-05-08 01:58:56 UTC  

I build a lot of crazy shit. I watched the one vid of the dude that made the home made plate, and did it better. I used a fiberglass microfiber and a fiberglass bonding agent and used more layers+ had consistent pressure over the entire product, and used a garage to keep a more consistent temperature to cure it.

2020-05-08 01:59:53 UTC  

I’m gonna order some dirt cheap steel plates to be able to make them curved.

2020-05-08 02:02:11 UTC  

Im also currently working on building a candlepic bowling ball cannon.

2020-05-08 02:17:37 UTC  

@KnightArkane what is it made of

2020-05-08 02:17:47 UTC  

ive heard you can just layer a shit load of fiberglass

2020-05-08 02:17:54 UTC  

it doesnt work for anything but small arms

2020-05-08 02:29:02 UTC  

I’m sure some of those lowers will still be ending up in Canada

2020-05-08 02:30:27 UTC  

well layering fiberglass is essentially the same thing as layering kevlar, just lower strength

2020-05-08 02:31:37 UTC  

@MrCaviar 5.56 went straight through. I’m gonna test a magnum slug and 7.62 this weekend.

2020-05-08 02:32:11 UTC  

not surpised

2020-05-08 02:34:36 UTC  

That’s the vid I based it off of. I used more layers, fiberglass microfiber and a different bonding agent. I also used a better compression so there were no bubbles and it was consistent all the way through. Mine cost close to $45.

2020-05-08 04:19:55 UTC  

well theres gotta be a way to make it stronger

2020-05-08 04:20:19 UTC  

maybe a thin sheet of metal on the front?

2020-05-08 04:20:26 UTC  

Or in the middle.

2020-05-08 04:21:19 UTC  

maybe
