[Fedoras of Salvation] - White Knights ITT

[Khaospawn]

I got drunk last night and cranked my half-stack to a deafening volume level.

It was amazing. EMG pickups are a thing of beauty when blasting machine gun staccato riffs.

[redthirst]

It's everything I could ever want.

[Khaospawn]

Windstrider -can't you just take two antidepressants and just be double happy?

[windstrider]

I hate cats.

[Khaospawn]

redthirst, I can't see your picture. Is it boobs?

[redthirst]

Can't see it? That's a shame - it's a Pika-Kitty.

[redthirst]

Boobs was an excellent guess, though.

[windstrider]

Windstrider -can't you just take two antidepressants and just be double happy?

Oh gods, no. Approximate representation of me like that

[Wraith223]

Sad face regarding the Kel-Tec...

Also, I wouldn't say I need a .22 mag... but a 30rd handgun for like 1/3 the price of the 5.7 just sounds awesome.

How would you rate the UTS?

I do firearms consulting as a side job for people who have money and no sense. Many want the newest tactical gun. I sit them down with the computor and show pictures of all the tactical shotguns. They soon realize that nothing is really new. Adding more ammo capacity is a step forward, but only doing so for pump action is stupid as the rate of fire is still the same. The UTS was extremely cool, but eye candy. For $1600, you can get a mag fed Saga Shotgun made in America (AK rifle that shoots 12 gauge). It's semi auto and has less
moving parts. Moving parts are the biggest issue with guns as shock, recoil, general abuse, and simple decomposition of materials cause jams. The best semi auto that should become a shotgun is the Kriss (Vector) as I bought that instead of a KSG (I wanted one to , but my hands said no). The build is able sift out materials at a rate very similar to the AK-47 and it loves all ammo due to loose fitting parts. Now back to the UTS. It is able to meet all the specifications of loose parts, few moving parts, but fails the ease of use. You have to stick ammo in near the but of the gun and it's not fast. 7 rounds going in is SLOW compared to the Saga with magazine fed system. Blowng a near equal amount for large tube magazine versus a real magazine fed auto is not wise. Reload time is is the percentage of time you are useless in a pinch. Consider a "real" new shotgun: the Maul. It loads and shoots based on
firestorm technology. Much better gun, but who wants to cary around extra barrel sized ammo clips? How do you reload them? I don't know everything, but reload time, magazine fed systems, semi autos, and simple construction win big in my book. UTS is eye candy for the die hard pump guys. Sad thing is you can't use for bird hunting as most states only allow 3 rounds in the gun while bird hunting. Thus the UTS is strictly for home defense, but maybe you could use it for turkey. I found a 10/.22 Ruger to be better at that as I hate spitting BB's in my plate.

If you want a large capacity pistol; I would wait. The 5.7 FN ammo is getting back to shelf capacity, but it is dumn exspensive. Also, Ruger, Taurus (not a fan of but their 1911's are good), Smith and Wesson, and Sig have yet to hit the market with a significant 5.7/.22 mag comparable weapon. Lately theor heads have been up their ass with innovation. I find 45acp to be just as effective and it makes you a better shooter as more ammo does not decide
the winner. I have yet to compare the .22 mag to the 5.7 in a vest test, but .22 long and 5.7 punch vests. I see more vest at gun shows for cheap and would expect criminals to start wearing them more often.

For house gun in .22mag or long rifle, you can't beat the accuracy of a Ruger Luger (.22 long rifle) or a wheel gun (.22 mag). $3-400 and clips are easy to find. Reliability is much higher as well.

For those looking for CCWs or serious home defense pistols, don't be afraid to drop $800-1,000 as saving up is really easy if you budget. The life span of Sig, FN, or H&K pistols are substantial. Ruger and S&W are mid grade and Taurus is low in my book. Glock is not a bad choice either, but small frames give slid burn BAD.

For those looking for Home defense shotguns. Go buy a simple mossberg pump for around $300 and have the time of your life pimping it out. If you want a semi auto, and have money to blow; get a Saga or Benelli/Remington/FN shotgun. The future ain't here yet.

Here are
some guns I am investigating.
- http://www.tactical-life.com/magazines/ ... ms-1216-2/
SRM Arms 1216- overcosted crap. The truning tube magazine is wobbly and weak. Also affects abbusive quick CQB style shooting. Great innovation, but needs more thought.
-http://www.tactical-life.com/magazines/ ... -12-gauge/
Kushnapup 12 Gauge- I really like this gun. It turns a SAGA into a bullpupu. Have yet to fondle one, but it's just a conversion. Not cheap and requires some mental, gunsmithing, and $ to build.
-AR-15 shotgun- You can look that one yourself as they are easy to find. Sometimes they are exspensive, and they look OK by me. I just want to see on from STAGG, Sig, or Rock River first. Watching this build line closely. Fondled but not shot it yet. It's the same as an AR, thus I am conserned about gas operated
systems unless it's piston driven from shotgun round gunky carbon build up.

There is much more to gun than just saying your general opinion. The whole line must be considered since big $ is easily blown.

where's the cat?

[TubeHunter]

kitty

[Wraith223]

where's the cat?

Cat theme huh. Here is my old kitty, Tiger. She got into a fight with another cat and got a absess on her head. Doctered her myself and saved aroun $200 in vet bills. It's been 4 months and she is living it up.

[TubeHunter]

I have 7 cats at my house. All named after the Greek gods

[TubeHunter]

Mine is Poseidon

[Wraith223]

Anyone watch the 2nd part to the South Park Consol wars episode? They made rags of Game of Thrones. I have only seen 3 episodes and lost interest. Sean Bean is much better in the old seriers "Sharpe" that aired on PBS. There's a real man's series. It's during the Napoleonic Wars and no gay weener (South Park Quote).

I have 3 barn cats out side and 4 inside for each family member. We have bad scorpeons and they kill the shit out of them for us. One dog though, and she is wolf hybrid.

[redthirst]

I'm actually much more of a dog person, myself, but my daughter is bugging me about getting a cat.

[Wraith223]

Get her one, but make sure it's a short hair. Easier to keep house clean. Cats sooth women when they are indistress and create controling (non-insane) hormones during the evil time of the month.

[Wraith223]

Corruption Report was good from rcwraspy. No police investigation expieriance or training? Never hide your secrets on the ass wipe or in the resivor bowl. Put it under the lid of the resivor bowl as no one flips it over. Also taping it under the Resivor bowl just out of sight or in the toilet paper tube dispensor is perfect as well. Think Micro dots as no one looks for those either.

[Elricity]

High School of the Damned, or HOTD.

The anime about huge tits, big guns, and zombies. There is a scene where one character shoots a .50cal around the huge heaving breasts of another to cap a zombie - like over one breast, bounce, under the other, dead zombie.

Sometimes I just need that HOTD inside of me.

I second this. Although you forgot the shapely asses.

Show is actually entertaining even factoring out the fanservice.

[LP, of the Fires]

Agreed, HOTD was legit entertaining and I wish there was another season of it. I mean, they made a Sarah Palin joke ffs.

[Khaospawn]

Tyrannosaurus Rex > Dogs > Cats.

[Kazekirimaru]

It's too Fall Out Boy-ish, not enough man-guitar.

Please tell me more about how you know anything about anything musical ever.

[Kazekirimaru]

Playing guitar is a lot like Magic. It looks like lots of fun, so you get a guitar, try to play, and suck terribly at it for 6 months. Then, one day, things click and you can play something resembling a song and it's fairly linear after that.

It is EXACTLY this.

[Kazekirimaru]

[hamfactorial]

ITT: daaawwwwwww

[Kazekirimaru]

I got drunk last night and cranked my half-stack to a deafening volume level.

It was amazing. EMG pickups are a thing of beauty when blasting machine gun staccato riffs.

Got dem 81/85s? That's what I have in my Ibanez.

I love it when the topic shifts to something I know about. That never happens!

[Valdarith]

Fall Out Boy is terrible.

[Kazekirimaru]

Fall Out Boy is terrible.

Tempted to video-spam the thread now.

My son is learning to play (he's 12) and my in-laws got him an electric guitar and amp for Christmas. My mom got him Rocksmith 2014 Edition. So I think I'm going to try and learn along with him. The software also supports bass guitar, so I might want to try that out.

[Helios]

Kaze, what kind of pickups are in the tele? Tele's are my personal favorite, the cover on the neck pickup gives you that sweet sweet sound. I have a custom-built (by and for someone else, got it from a pawn shop) semi-hollowbody tele with a quilted maple top, a Fender Custom-Shop lipstick tube in the neck and a Seymour Duncan rails in the bridge. It's fuckin glorious.

Val: That's just, like, your opinion maaaan.

[Kazekirimaru]

Kaze, what kind of pickups are in the tele?

They're stock single-coil. Never wanted/needed to change them up.

[Helios]

So the Fender American stock?

[Kazekirimaru]

Yep.

[Helios]

Hmmm give me a day or two to think about it. If you find another buyer though, by all means go ahead.

[Kazekirimaru]

Really? Alrighty. I'll hold onto it.

I have the original cover for the neck pickup and strap, as well~

And I think another bridge. And the case, of course.

[Valdarith]

I can't possibly wrap my head around why someone would like a shitty, talentless, whiny, and outright annoying band like Fall Out Boy. They're actually worse than Nickleback. Really, I'd rather listen to the worst Nickleback song played on a loop on my way to work than that shitty "da da in a lillilura" slit my wrists gay Emo track you call a song.

81/60

The 60 on clean is nice - round and full, like the women I drunkenly bring home from the bar. And then pee on.

81's are just....perfect for metal. Though I like the bluesy tones that you can get from the 85's. Zakk Wylde swears by them.

I play an ESP
eclipse. I have a picture of my rig around here somewhere. Rogue's Gallery, maybe?

There's something worse than Nickleback? That's a bold statement.

Someone's mad.

Bonus points for using a mockery of a song from their early career to attempt to drive your point home. Because bands don't evolve over the course of
eight years or anything. All good, though. Shows how uninformed your decision is.

[redthirst]

Light 'em up up up.
