RPGs tend to attempt to allow multiple paths to resolve a certain issue or quest. As a result, many different "builds" are possible and viable. However, this does not mean that a fast talking weakass nerd is going to be able to tank and defeat a wrestler in hand to hand combat. Due to the fact...

Well, the killer for the Elcan is the external lever needed to switch magnification. The way it's made, there's a chance that something might block its full travel and you can't really tell easily when looking through it. So you might be shooting several degrees off target without realizing it...

Actually, most people with astigmatism seem to prefer etched reticles (so ACOG, variable magnified optic or prism style).

Do you think things like the Nickle Boron carrier group matters for reliability? Or did you just pick it because it's just a lot easier to clean? I've been quite spoiled with my Sig551SB, so the concept of doing anything special to a gun to make it work correctly is entirely foreign to me. The...

Neat. :) But are you sure there's enough exclamation marks in the title @TorontRayne ? ;)

SFS is kinda neat, but it's a gimmick. But I like it purely from an engineering point of view. As for not fully supporting a 10mm Auto, that's just asking for trouble. I'd only run soft loads with thick casewalls through that too, yeah.

Sure, but again, be careful to also train with the ammo you're going to use for self-defense. Cheap Wolf FMJs range fodder might feed great, but your super fancy $3 per shot super expanding hollow points you use for self-defense might not work quite as well.

Although better looking, the first gen Delta Elites had a reputation for beating themselves to death if you used full power ammo through them and didn't reinforce the components. So it's probably for the best. As for the high power, I was considering getting an SFS one, just because. The HP is...

Was the Delta Elite you sent in to work over a first gen or second gen?

Head janitor. ;) But yes, you can get a name change, but think it over sufficiently because it'll likely be the last you'll get.

I think that Australia even restricts 9x19, so you're best off gathering some legal information before continuing this conversation.

Nuke it from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

9x19mm FMJs have a tendency to hugely overpenetrate unless they hit bone. So if you want to shoot both the thug and his buddy behind him, be my guest. But it may very well be the thug and the kid in the house behind him... FMJs make little sense for self-defense unless you expect to shoot...

I'd suggest 9x19mm if there's no mag cap restrictions. Modern hollow points are great at what they do and partially negate the .45ACP advantage. The caveat for 9x19mm is that most people train with cheaper FMJ and load their carry gun with JHP when they take it out without actually making sure...

You'll need to state your intended use case (range fun? self-defense?) and your local restrictions (mag cap? hollow points?) before we can even begin to meaningfully approach that topic...

Quite frankly, I don't like where this is all headed. It seems to suffer from the same thing Hollywood suffers from. When they have a good product, they just end up making it more & more extravagant and extreme instead of fleshing out the core features which make the movie/game/whatever great.

What's your intended use for it? If you say social purposes, does that mean as a classy carry piece?

This time around, I bought: Sunless Sea - Zubmariner - 7,36€ System Shock Enhanced - 1,49€ Dishonored 2 - 19,99€ Krai Mira - 7,19€ Endless Space Collection - 4,99€ Arcanum - 3,95€ Star Wars: KOTOR - 2,49€ Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II - 2,49€ The latter three I already technically...

For those that love conspiracy theories: The problem is not adapting to working with a lower population. We have that covered and it's not a real problem. The problem is adapting to an economy without growth. Our entire economic system is built around the idea that anything except growth (and...

Not hyped, but I'll surely play it.
