    Pics of your EDC II

    So..... I ordered a jig that allows a smooth pin punch without buggering up the frame on the FN. This morning, I looked at it wondering if I should take it with me to drop the FN off at the gunsmith. Naw, sez I. He surely has one. Get to his shop, and he says he'll have to take it with him to...

    Pics of your EDC II

    Heh... I watched the video for replacing the trigger and immediately knew this wasn't something I wanted to tackle. Too many tiny parts and springs which I KNOW would either lose, put back in wrong or generally screw it up. So..... Once the Meprolight sights show up, it's going to the gunsmith...

    The Lurker Thread

    Welp, we've been at it for nearly a month now. Our average, per day, district wide is over 23,000 scans. This includes after hours at the various games that are held after school (volleyball, football, etc.). The school I worked at last week averages anywhere from 3500 to 4100 scans per day...

    Chromebook? If so, there's a special key sequence that you can press when it flat refuses to turn on. Hold the reset key while pressing the power button. Should boot right up.

    Rain forecast for most of today which should keep the temps down a bit. Debating on whether to hit the range or not. Might wait until tomorrow as there tends to be fewer people first thing after they open. With the weather putting a damper on holiday weekend activities, I suspect there'll be...

    When was the last time you changed your GMail password?

    Gmail used to be my primary, until Google really ticked me off regarding system generated server messages that notified me of tasks that were accomplished or failed. After years of receiving them faithfully, one day they started to get rejected outright. Ever try to find an actual body to speak...

    Wisconsin & Texas Vape Ban 2025: What You Need to Know

    Again, the ban does not cover devices manufactured outside of the US. The law specifically prohibits devices that are prefilled in China. Components can be made in China, but the device itself must be filled in the US with US made e-liquid.

    Range report..... Yeah, the trigger is pretty heavy. Groupings were not up to my usual standard. Ordered an Apex trigger for it yesterday and it should be here within a few days. Otherwise, it's a pretty nice pistol. Looking forward to getting the new trigger in and putting a few more hundred...

    Wisconsin & Texas Vape Ban 2025: What You Need to Know

    To be clear, the Texas law does not ban all disposable vape devices. Only those that are filled in China. Devices that are physically filled with e-liquid in the US are not banned and can continue to be sold.

    Do you use a password manager?

    https://thehackernews.com/2025/08/dom-based-extension-clickjacking.html This is pretty serious. While some companies have fixed the issue, others have yet to update their software. Again, pay attention to the URL after clicking a link that takes you to a website. The website could be a dead...

    Yup. Unfortunately my work schedule doesn't allow me to get any OT during the week. However, there are some Saturday events on the horizon and I get first dibs on those spots. Time and a half at my current rate will be a very welcome addition to the monthly check.

    Ordered Wednesday, picked up Thursday on my way in to work. Going to put a few hundred rounds through it tomorrow. Manual says it has a 7 lb trigger pull. If I think it's too much, I'll probably drop an Apex trigger into it to lower it down to around 5 lbs.

    Another week done and things are smoothing out rather nicely. Alerts are down under 10%, and hopefully in another week or so, we'll have that to under 5%. Not bad when we're scanning on average 20,000 individuals in a given day. Now the OT starts as football season begins. That's going to be...
