I feel like I've deadlocked myself into NOT wanting to spend time working on my side projects

I've broken away from the productivity+dopamine+ship fast cycle, and my side projects are passion projects/experiments that don't make money

After work, I could use that time to cook a good meal, clean up the house, spend time/watch a movie/have sex with my wife, go to the shooting range, etc

participating in real life makes me feel so much more alive

[IroncladDev @IroncladDev]

@john_galt_42069 beautiful, I can't wait for this one to come out

by the time I can afford a Lima Six, maybe you'll convince me to get one of these instead

[IroncladDev @IroncladDev]

@petersteele you should get an FRT

The more time I've spent modifying my AK, the more I'm realizing that the AR is the better platform

I've swapped almost every part for an aftermarket upgrade over the past two years. It's a build I'm really proud of and it shoots very smooth

In terms of reliability, the AK and AR have similar results, with the AK generally performing better in cold temperatures, but it's such a fine line that there really doesn't need to be such a heated flame war

In terms of availability, it's pretty difficult to get AK spare parts due to the number of variants and specifications. 7.62x39 is significantly less common in the US than 5.56

Ballistics-wise, 300BLK is a heavier and more deadly round than 7.62x39 for close-quarters engagements, and 5.56 can be adapted to a lot of different use cases without dipping

The most common rifle in America is the AR-15, and if we ever get into a firefight with the people trying to disarm us, mil-spec would be better than fitting everyone with AKs that differ from each other in various ways

I still like the AK platform because it looks cool and is based

I still don't have an AR (I have a JAKL in 5.56) and I should definitely get one soon

[IroncladDev @IroncladDev]

@AlolanRonin the gas system uses a long stroke piston but it takes AR mags and uses a mil-spec receiver

[IroncladDev @IroncladDev]

@MelkeyDev @chardon_cs Rust programmers in shambles

[IroncladDev @IroncladDev]

@DeMoDLLC If it's a 5.56 AK, that would make sense since more gas goes into the gas tube instead of out the muzzle

[IroncladDev @IroncladDev]

@DeMoDLLC my AK has a muzzle brake and a 7" barrel it will absolutely blow out your eardrums lol

[IroncladDev @IroncladDev]

@chickenOnaise you should build a short 300BLK AK

[IroncladDev @IroncladDev]

@l0tkas firearm safety courses should be left to qualified individuals operating in the free market not the government

public gun drop locations would be a disaster lol just conceal carry or leave in car

[IroncladDev @IroncladDev]

federal law restricts 18-20 year olds to obtaining long guns

and they're trying to take that away from us at the state level on day one

[IroncladDev @IroncladDev]

@l0tkas they won't because they want to disarm and de-incentivize law abiding citizens from getting them

[IroncladDev @IroncladDev]

HB 218 would also allow them to arbitrarily label someone as having a mental illness and order them to turn in their guns within 24 hours or be charged with a misdemeanor
