Buy one and mail it to me:)

For anyone interested I'm selling the very same flash used in the above photos on the classifieds here at TGO. Keep in mind these photos were shot at nighttime in the dark:)

I already drank my coffee but it hasn't completely kicked in. In other words, I posted in the wrong section:)

Again, today (10-24), Lifestraw products are on a decent sale on Amazon.com's Deal of the Day LifeStraw Personal Water Filter LifeStraw Family 1.0 Water Purifier LifeStraw Go Bottle LifeStraw Mission

Played around some tonight with rear curtain sync.

Update: Peak Design Slide SL-2 works great! Shot with it some this weekend. Very comfortable and easily adjustable. I love how easy it is to add and remove from the camera. The only downside I have regarding the issue is that it stores quite largely. If I had a bit larger bag it would be fine. Well, since it is a padded strap with decently large buckles it does take up some space. That's a trade-off I'll gladly make for all of the other things it brings to the table. Now, some pictures from this weekend.

I purchased two items recently that I think some of you may be interested in. The first item I purchased was to eliminate the common issue of my camera strap being frustrating. The stock Canon strap is hard to adjust, uncomfortable, and too short to use as a sling. I found this: Peak Design Slide SL-2 I think I'm really, really going to like this. I use my camera for video sometimes on a tripod and it will be nice to be able to easily remove the straps. Supposedly it is much more comfortable than stock straps. Review pending after I try it out. The second item I purchased was more of a spontaneous purchase. While shooting video over the weekend I noticed some sort of something blocking the picture slightly. I had one of these years ago but misplaced it: Giottos Rocket Air Blower These are great, not only will the get dust/debris off your lens but also the more important sensor.

Show it to Ebay.

So, as an update to this. Over the past year I've struggled with left eye being dry. It sort of comes and goes and honestly it was something I became complacent with. I was using some cheap drug-store equivalent drops. Earlier this week I decided to research and find out what is really helping others. The first thing I purchased was Allergan Refresh Plus Lubricant Eye Drops. They seem to be about the best. Well, they arrived yesterday and I've tried them. I can honestly say from the first drop in my left eye that they feel better than the drug-store equivalent drops I had been using. They felt much, much more "buttery smooth" than with the others. I plan on using these at least twice a day until I run out. I also have been reading some about "hydrotherapy". This is where you take a warm wash cloth and hold it over your closed eyelids. Supposedly one of the biggest reason for dry eye syndrome is clogged oil glands/ducts. Holding warm water/warmth near them for several moments a day can help unclog them. Of course this only helps if that's the reason you have dry eye syndrome. Well, I randomly stumbled across Thermalon Dry Eye Compress on Amazon and noticed it had over 1,000 good reviews and the comments have people raving about it. Will it work magic? I don't know. I certainly am hopeful that it may help. It gets here tomorrow. For the price it can definitely be a splurge purchase even if it doesn't work. Going to give these two products a try for a while and see what happens.

You're equating a 10% increase to a 300% increase? It bothers me 0% that a station rises their prices a whopping $.20 when there is speculation of reduced supply. It also bothers me 0% that Benton's charged $100 for .22lr. You either buy it or you don't. Want a secret? Had Benton's left it at rock bottom pricing you wouldn't have been able to buy any anyways. There wouldn't have been any on the shelf. Equilibrium point: The point where supply meets demand. People that are willing to pay the market price can because it is available. Anything below the market price and you will have a shortage. I'm not saying that $100 was the market price, but anyone that purchased it for $100 was faithful that it was.

Never-mind. Tapatalk was being dumb and it turns out he's still active.

Yeah...but he also hasn't posted anywhere since 2013! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It isn't that you would necessarily lose or gain anything. The 17 is just simply a tad bit larger. Comes with higher capacity magazines. For what it is worth you can use Glock 17 magazines in the Glock 19. I say Glock 19. Easily carried. Look around and you should be able to find a LNIB one for $500 or under.

Finally. Someone who understands basic supply and demand. If a law is keeping prices below the equilibrium point there will be a shortage. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Maybe just purchase some training videos or something like that? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A little preview: Last year I made the decision to trust my life on the street to Second Chance body armor. I got the level IIa because it stops the most rounds. plus I got the Trauma Plate for the front. What scares me is that, although I can fit an extra trauma plate in the front, I cannot fit a second one in back. As of late I have taken to duct-taping a second trauma plate to the area of my back where the heart and vital organs are located. Then I put my vest on. Here is the questions. The ducttape solution, although tactically sound, is hot and painful to remove. I would like to go to the single-plate solution in back. What I am worried about is repeated hits to that area with .308 ammunition. I have a high-risk security job and I fear that I would be the target for repeated long-distance shots to my back. Are any of you aware of a thicker plate that could stop, say, .338 Lapua or something like that? Is there a better way to do the second plate? BTW, I am, of course, usually carrying a pair of ceramic plates in my briefcase so that I can shield my head. My SO (we work as a team when necessary) has a similar accessory containing a breakdown NEF single-shot 300 WinMag with an 18" bbl. The plan is that I shield us with my body and “catch the rounds” while she assembles the NEF. I lay down covering fire with my 23 (Bar-Sto .357 Sig barrel) and she makes the long shots. I will then throw smoke grenades to obscure the area while continuing to lay covering fire. The problem, of course, is when I have to turn my back to run, and then the problem crops up. Thanks!

At this point you should be DUCT TAPING hard plates to your chest under your shirt. I'm sure that would have stopped most anything .308 or smaller. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I question the validity of this concern. Seems of valid you would hear more about it. All of the "big names" in the firearms industry are silent on it. The ammoland article mentions June 2016, so it may even be a bit old news. Here's to hoping. Still reading about it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If true, interesting to see the repercussions. I imagine it would make reloading too expensive/troublesome for most and ammo will cost a lot. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
