I'll play........here are a few from my collection that I had out for cleaning today after a range trip. (Crappy cell phone pic, sorry)

3a33f9974942510da2e0b4e2447f8bb2.jpg

 

Starting top LEFT:

Glock 22 : Gen4

Glock 19 : Gen4

Glock 26 : Gen4

Ruger P89

Glock 17 : Gen4

Glock 19

Glock 27

Ruger SR1911

Springfield Armory XDS

 

No modifications to any of my pistols. I only make slight changes to my Glocks so they are pretty much identical no matter which one I am carrying.

The compact and sub-compact models, I replace the factory target trigger with a factory smooth face trigger that come in the full size models.

I also switch the Gen4 trigger bar out for a Gen3 trigger bar. All of the Gen4's come with a bump on the trigger bar that causes a little heavier trigger pull. Getting rid of that bar with the bump allows for the exact same trigger pull on every pistol.

They also get Glock night sights if not purchased that way and my sub-compact models all get GAP floorplates on the magazeine. Just gives the ring finger a place to sit without compromising the size of the pistol.

Both Rugers and the XDS are untouched but the XDS will get night sights at some point since it's my summer time carry gun.

 

One day I'll have to pull them all out and post a picture of the entire family of pistols..

      Gas Prices

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      If we actually used any significant amount of that source in the USA then I'd agree but we don't. We've had that discussion before. We drill and pump more than we use. Thing is, we sell. We export. Gas and Crude. It's more profitable so any shortage here is self inflicted and LEGAL.    I worked a gas plant that has multiple fuel sources available and I worked in the furnace and boiler plant in that facility. I'd had days we swapped fuel types four times in a twelve hour shift which isn't done on supply but on margin. Two of the fuel sources are internally generated. Tail gas and DAK, both of which are sold as well a consumed. We always had more than we needed to run the process but we chose the fuel that produced the best margin not bought at the cheapest price always. A good bit of math to that and back in the time that was done on a slide rule.     I worked the Shale Oil Semiworks of Chevron Research and CONOCO Research in Salt Lake City. That process never went into production although it was very successful. Why? Did we lack oil bearing shale? Nope. Price of crude never made the margins work. That was in the late 70's early 80's. Remember history? What was happening then was a reaction to that situation. It didn't drive it. If so then it's easy. This isn't a supply and demand thing. This is a profit and margin thing and AI rules that now.    In no refining situation that I was ever in would a bomb hitting a well anywhere in the world 'instantly' interrupt or even distress the supply. Most plants have more than a months worth of crude in the tank field and more in pumping stations. That yo-yo could play out over days, weeks and maybe months and have zero impact on plant operations. How many times has this been off and on in the last few months? These people and not stupid. These plants measure down time in hundreds of thousands of dollars per day. They are not sucking fumes or waiting on the next truckload with baited breath. Besides, as I noted, they are for the most part 'vertically integrated'. They own it from the dirt is sits in to the delivery rack and sometimes to the pump. It has a HUGE shock absorber built in. When production suffers, refining wins and when refining is winning exploration is killing. The rest of that crap in the news is a 'news cycle'. Government dipping in to reserves? Oil is stealing their milk money. There's a reason Chevron abandon Venezuela infrastructure and it had nothing to do with security of US citizens. Nationals run those plants. it has to do with MARGINS disappearing to corruption. They are in no hurry to return. Is there supply there? Oh yea. More than enough to offset what is bought in the middle east. Just isn't ???? Profitable.    We have supply. There are places in Illinois you can drive a pipe into the ground and run your homes natural gas furnace on it.    A refinery fire will gum up the supply works but not a localized war where the market is using a limited supply from. Now Europe, that's something other....

      $4.00 a gallon here now.   Diesel nearly $5.00 again.

      If we're talking futures, yes, it's speculation.   The spot price of a delivered barrel is elevated now compared to before the conflict. And that is related more to current supply/demand.

      SPECULATION on the wars effect raised prices. AI is maximizing the profit. Refining is vertically integrated.

      It's the Middle East conflict that raised prices, not AI. But nice distraction.
