Lower 1/4" co-witness. Out of the way unless I need them.

Ah, you know... I had the same impression at first, but the overall width seems to be the same as a Glock 19. Besides, the ergonomics of the gun are so good that I would be willing to tolerate a little thicker slide if I had to.

Your favorite NFL jersey worn in an opposing team's hometown will invite smart-assed remarks from people who want to feel big about themselves. People can be assholes, as you've noticed. Anyway, I what I really wanted to add to this conversation is the basic necessity of being competent in verbal judo. We're all going to invite attention to ourselves sooner or later - even if it's because of something we can't change about ourselves. When that happens, the best initial course of action is de-escalation if at all possible. It would suck to get injured or murdered by a small-minded idiot because you took the bait and got into a battle of words with them.

Resurrecting an old thread. I had the PDP Compact with the first generation optics cut a while back. It was a good gun but the lack of recoil lugs in the optic cut probably worried me a little more than it should have. As an educated and trained engineer, I know that it was highly unlikely that the plate would shift laterally and cause the screws to sheer, but it still nagged me a little. I moved on to other platforms and we even tried a PDP-F for my wife, but she didn't care for it and the grip was a little too small for me, so that one also found a new home. But what was old is new again and this is my new PDP Compact with the 2nd generation optic mounting. These guns are just great shooters with excellent triggers and ergonomics, and settling back in with this one has been like putting on a pair of comfortable old shoes. It just feels right. The only changes I've made are the Ameriglo .315" front sight, 10-8 Performance suppressor height rear sight, and ZR Tactical Solutions 15lb captured guide-rod and recoil spring, and the ZRTS mounting plate for the Holosun HE509T optic. Pretty much the perfect setup. That is all.

Welcome from somewhat nearby. Spring Hill is the closest town from the rural area I live in.

I've got an Aeron size C and it is insanely comfortable compared to the size B. I'm built like an ogre with a long torso and short(er) legs. The C fit me way better than the B did. Plus with it being somewhat wider, I don't snag my gun on the arm rests when I'm carrying and sit or stand. I've also used the Steelcase Leap V2 in an office setting for 4-5 years and really liked it a lot. I would have bought one of those for home if the Aeron hadn't actually been cheaper.

For anyone on the fence about this, I run the exact same setup on my Gen 5 G45. The barrel is every bit as accurate as the OEM Gen 5 Marksman barrel, and likely more, and the comp is highly effective.

I think you should go with "Big O" and let us all embrace our inner 13-year-old selves.

Those were actually the Battle Mug, a creation of @BimmerFreak. I still have mine! Very cool kit and a fun piece of local firearms industry history.

It's a financial decision made after the fact, perhaps strongly encouraged by his agent, lawyer, manager, financial advisor, friends, family, etc. Black lucked out. He wasn't the idiot who said it, so he gets a little more latitude for damage control than Gass does. Black certainly didn't seem to denounce the comment on stage, though.

Question: Which generation optic cut does this have?

That is going to look great! The fact that it is using Magnacut steel for the blade is just tops.

Re: Bongino... Bongino is the shock-jock of the conservative mediascape. Like others said, he does often seem to receive good intel from his sources, but listening to him fatigues me. I just can't stand being constantly yelled at and someone set Dan's volume knob at 11 and ripped it off. I need him in very small doses.

Oh, man... there's the problem right there. And I say this as being someone who makes the same error all the time! The problem is you're reading what the whackadoodles on livestreams and social media are saying. I've sworn off Facebook so many times now because I find myself reading something incredibly asinine and thinking, "I wonder if this person is as much of a dip#### as what they just wrote leads me to believe." And then I click their profile, read a few more things, see family photos where everyone's eyes are spaced just a little too far apart if you know what I mean. Before I know it, my assumptions are confirmed and everyone's a dumbass, the whole human race is a miserable mistake, and I'm just ready for a giant meteor to crash into earth and end it all. Don't pay attention to the comments on live streams. Those are lonely weirdos whose own families won't even talk to them anymore. I suspect their customer bases are 10% true fanboys and 90% people who just like stirring up liberals. Businesses who sell #### for the sole sake of antagonizing people you don't like always make big money.

Hey, if we're going to start trotting out each other's lunatics, I'm going to need to add more storage capacity to TGO's infrastructure for all of the posts and pictures.

I'm struggling to think of anything I've read from the most ardent Trump supporters that suggests they think he can turn water into wine. What I can think of are many cases of people simply pinning their hopes on Trump as the candidate who most closely seems to represent their personal values, or as being the candidate most likely to bring some stability or restoration to the economy, secure the borders, bring important manufacturing capacity back to the United States, and project enough power globally so that America, Americans, and American interests are safer than they have been in a long while. Are those the things that you think makes him some sort of god-like deity to his supporters? Because, man, if so... most Democrats think the exact same things about their candidates of choice. Well, except for the stuff about a stronger America. Democrats don't seem to care much about that as far as I've seen.

I would only wear it at home because wearing it out in public would invite interactions with people, and people are generally just the worst.

Donald Trump - Missed Me - T-Shirt – Nine Line Apparel

I stopped trying to explain matters of personal faith to people who aren't genuinely interested in understanding them a long time ago. Your objective here isn't to understand, it is to argue. I don't have the time to spare for that, nor the interest.

That's a weird way of saying he survived an assassination attempt.

If divine providence is absent from the discussion of why a bullet meant to blow Trump's head off missed by a scant few millimeters and only because he turned his head at just the right moment... then the only thing we have left is that he survived purely by coincidence. I'm not a fan of the idea of coincidence, so I attribute his survival to the idea that it wasn't his time to die yet because God isn't done with him on this earth. Now, whether that means God is long suffering in his grace and allowed Trump to live another day because there is something keeping him from being "right with God" that still needs to be resolved [read: salvation] or if it means that Trump plays a role in some plan that God has... I don't know and it's not my place to say. I do not and dare not speak for God on such matters. But with all of that being said, I think we can agree on the simple fact that our nation will be electing its next president a few months from now and the options that we currently have are to either continue down the extremely disastrous road that we've been on for the last four years, governed by people who outwardly seem to hate our country and everything that it stands for, or we pivot back to Trump - a man who still seems to be the antithesis of that. A bullet nearly irrevocably changed our options. The fact that it didn't -- by sheer fluke or coincidence or whatever you want to call it -- feels to me like divine providence.

Ask him yourself.

From that article: I just want to point out that this is the mindset of the Southern Poverty Law Center. SPLC has been held up by people on this forum before as being the kind of organization that you should care about what they think. Well. I guess in this case you certainly should.

Divine intervention.

Yeah... uploading from a phone can result in trying to send a MASSIVE file to the server. Since yesterday I made some more changes to our software config that will allow most photos to be uploaded, but the forum software is still going to shrink them before attaching them to posts. This whole thing is a never-ending game of Chase The Rabbit since every new iteration of phones seems to bring even higher resolution photos with larger file sizes.
