Self defense pistol recommendations.
43x is my everyday carry and does everything I need it to. That said, go handle several guns in the size you think you want, based on your needs. See what fits best, then research reliability, etc. Smith M&P is also a strong contender. 9mm is the obvious choice for many, many reasons. Bullets... -
Who’s got a 6 arc?
I do. Have a pile of IMR 7977 I'm going to try to burn up first though. We'll see how that works out. -
Who’s got a 6 arc?
Both of those powders work great in 6gt. I’d have to guess dasher and BR would be similar. Creed likes h1000 and comparable Edit to add that 109 is the heaviest I’ve run in front of those powders. Going to tinker with 116 and 120 this winter. Might need slower powder. -
Skull Cleaning PSA
Works great on the nasal cavity too. Just have to be careful about how much pressure you use.- Arcola

Who’s got a 6 arc?
For someone that hand-loads and in a bolt gun, BR, Dasher, or GT are better options in my opinion. I have the latter two and they have been very easy to tune and produce very minimal recoil. Also had a HOWA mini in 6arc. Didn’t care for the mini platform at all. -
Kuiu attack pants
I’m a fan of the attack pants. And the Sierra, guide, etc. I have several pairs nearing 10 years old that are still in good enough shape to wear regularly.- Arcola

Seized engine torque converter removal
Cut a “U” shape in the flexplate above each bolt, then cut the bolt heads off. With an acetylene torch, that is. Done this lots and lots of times.- Arcola

Ford F150 fuel induction service
Missed this detail. As others have indicated, this is a dual injected engine designed specifically to minimize carbon build-up on the valves. The service they're recommending is unnecessary on these engines. Certainly doesn't hurt to use a fuel "cleaning" additive once every 15k-30k miles, but...- Arcola

You’re welcome. It would be wise to do it, but don’t shy away from asking them about exactly how it is performed.- Arcola

Ford F150 fuel induction service
Because the fuel is injected directly into the cylinder and never touches the valves, but carbon does develop on the top of the valves.- Arcola

Ford F150 fuel induction service
Should be done on direct injected engines. Not sure if yours is. Depends on the year. I’d ask details about how they do it. Hopefully not just a fuel additive. It should be run through the throttle body to take carbon off the valves.- Arcola

Fly rod info needed
I took a lesson at a local fly shop many years ago. Little tricks from an experienced instructor cut the learning curve dramatically. I passed those tips on to my boys and they both cast better than I do at 6yo and 10yo.- Arcola
