It is kind of like people bluring serial numbers and vehicle tags. What does it really do for you? My first question is if it is stolen.

Got a 40 cal barrel for my Glock. So now it can fire that, 9mm and 357 Sig, which is what it came in initially.

 

What kind of barrel? I have 9mm conversion barrels for my .40's to make it cheaper for the range.

Don't be suprised if you have failures to eject with using 9mm. The ejector is shaped differently than .40-.357sig.

The .40 barrel is factory Glock, 9mm is a Stork Lake conversion. I've had that three years and probably over a thousand rounds without any function issues.

My tastes run more to this sort of gun ... double shotguns of the early 20th century.

As far as getting in your safe...a $1500 portable plasma cutter will open it up in less time than it takes to post from this stupid "smart" phone. Anyone thinks doggies are a problem ain't seen a dog eat a meatball with a pill in it. Toss it over the fence and go get a cup of coffee on the corner. Dogs and a safe don't buy much security for high value items.

Sig Sauer P238 and Glock Model 27 40cal as my carry pistols and a Sig P220 45 for most target shooting. I do carry the P220 in winter time when I have a coat on big enough to cover the monster

I would not plasma cut open a safe with 5k rounds of ammunition about 8 pounds of assorted powder and about 6k primers, it would just end very bad. That is all im saying, they can have at it but it will not be pretty.

He is saying the number 1 reason you want that is because it has 454 in it. The size of one of the most iconic big blocks

You just cut the face of the door around the lock, reach thru the hole and unlock it. Most safes have a thin sheetmetal inner panel on the inside o the door.Powder and primers don't explode when they catch fire unless contained in something to build pressure. It could be a heck of a fire th dough

Another way into a safe is to use a portable magnetic drillpress with a diamond concrete holesaw to cut the whole combination lock out reach in and unlock it. Plug it in the wall get a beer from the fridge and push the button. Lubricate and cool occasionally with beer. 10-15 minutes 2 beers tops.

Ordered the Glock extended slide stop for my G32. I hate how flat the OE one is.

      2018 Silverado Console USB Port Not Working

      By Tbhats2130 · Posted

      My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.

      The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.

      I have four that read by the dash 8 to 10% better than miles/pump calculations and I have one that is spot on.
