  1. She's a beauty. My next build is going to be a 9mm carbine that takes Glock mags...and this makes me want to be impatient and start today haha.


    Go ahead and get started cause it's hard to find all the pieces and parts in stock. It took me a few months just to find the bolt carrier assembly
  2. Well I finally did it.
    It's a 1/4 circle 10 small frame glock lower with their modified bolt.

    Cmmg pdw upper. 8.5" barrel keymod rail.

    Only got to shoot it 5 times, but so far so good. Bho works as it shoot.

    Parts kit is a spikes enhanced lpk. Not crazy about the ambi safety's as it rubs my trigger finger.

    Also not sold on the keymod over a standard rail.

    Now just gotta settle on sights and optics.

  3. So anyone have experience with these?

    What's the good bad and ugly about them?

    My AR had been parked for a while. Got it out and the batteries were dead on my eotech. Not to worry I've got a bunch of Chinese 123A's that work great in my flashlights...long story short they won't fit in the eotech?

    So I'm looking to go battery free...
  4. I got a couple from xxxknife.  I got 2 troodons and a benchmade infidel. 

    You can really tell a difference in the quality vs the real deal.

     

    The troodons are heavy but real nice for the $$$ nicer than the lightnings and flea market stilettos 

    The infedel while nice is not as good of quality.

     

    Shipping took about 6 weeks. 

  5. That is about like one of the theories I have said in the past (can't remember if it was here).  It is the Komodo dragon effect--their bite is toxic not because of venom, but because of the sheer amount of bacteria in their mouth.  Walkers could have similar toxic bacteria, which could explain why a bite eventually kills you.  It could also explain the variability in how long people are sick before dying.  Morgan even mentioned that one of the first signs of sickness was the incredibly high fever.  It is not that the bite transmits the Walker germ, but rather it is a source of other infection.  If we wanted to speculate further, it would be that the bacteria in saliva is unique and not found in other body tissues, hence why you can get a face full of blood, guts, etc.  A somewhat similar real world application is rabies--it is almost exclusively transmitted through saliva (the virus travels along nerves and then moves into the salivary gland).  However, you could also be exposed by brain tissue into a wound, so it is not a complete analogous disease.

     

    I know this can't explain the whole deal; for example, was saliva ever dripping into Rick's face?  But in terms of suspension of disbelief, it goes a long ways.  One of the important things is that everyone is already infected; so the only thing that needs to be explained is why bites are worse than any other exposure to Walker body fluids.  This is in contrast to fiction such as 28 Days Later, in which any body fluid infects you.  The Walking Dead would be much harder to excuse if they weren't already infected.

     

    There is a chance that the cannibals' reactions were due to them not knowing that everyone is infected, but you would have thought they would have that figured out, unless they happened to smash the head of anyone who died and never saw a natural-dead person re-animate.  Maybe they ate them too fast before the dead could rise.

     

    I have always assumed the Zombie virus is a weaponized or otherwise mutated rabies variation.

  6. I need some clarification on the Sasha Gabriel situation.

    One minute she is baring her soul, then they fight, then they have a half ass prayer meeting with Maggie? 

     

     

    I don't see anyway Glenn got out from under two zeds and didn't at least get bit a little...

  7. Just watch out for bloody ceiling drippings and you should be okay. Unless you get sweaty and your face shield starts to droop. 

     

    Of and the smell, oh gag me the smells is what I cant handle.  All the irony putrid blood and singed hair. 

    IF you can a little vapo rub under your nostrils will keep it from seizing to your nose hairs.
