    Why Jeep May Never be Great Again

    Before I lifted mine I was looking at getting rid of it and going a different route (either a 392 or a real truck). In the end, I couldn’t justify the added cost of either. The gladiator works for my needs and it does drive far better on the freeway (even with 37’s) than either of my JKURs do...

    Why Jeep May Never be Great Again

    Mine works for me because I can carry all of the camping/apocalypse shit I like to carry. lol. But I could certainly get by just fine with a wrangler and a small off road trailer for my RTT. I do like that it is smaller than a full size truck though on a daily driving basis. I test drove a...

    Old but new tires

    I should have added an emoji to my original post. Sometimes sarcasm is not self-evident. ;)

    Old but new tires

    I had late 2020, early 2021 tires on my gladiator up until a few months ago. Do tires have a “use by” date?

    Why Jeep May Never be Great Again

    Calling a gladiator a pickup is a bit of a stretch in my book. I say it’s a wrangler with a big ass.

    Jeep dogs!!!

    Took my wife almost two years after our 15 year old golden retriever passed. Over the last few months things started to change and we ended up with a new pup today.

    Put it in to make you happy. No intention to mislead. Either way, the charge means human interaction was the proximate cause of death. You don’t charge someone with involuntary manslaughter for setting a holstered pistol on the table. Pretty shitty if this guy was fucking around with a pistol...

    https://www.airforcetimes.com/news/your-air-force/2025/08/08/air-force-makes-arrest-in-airmans-shooting-death-involving-m18-pistol/ Perhaps the pistol didn’t fire on its own after all…unless of course the Air Force arrested and charged the pistol with involuntary manslaughter.

    Is it worth it?

    I gave mine away locally. Some guy was convinced he could make them work on an old Cherokee.

    I haven’t heard of a single complaint that the Flux Raider has AD problems, which is interesting to me for several reasons. 1) it can’t really be holstered which means a poor fitting holster can’t activate the trigger and cause an AD. 2) it has its own trigger safety but I don’t believe that...

    There is no question that a fair amount of people change springs, trigger bars, put in triggers with adjustable screws to eat up a lot of the pre-break trigger throw, etc. I don’t know if any of the claimed AD’s involved modified FCUs. But, if they did, it would almost certainly provide an...

    100% And trying to figure out what is truth is not that easy. Personally, I want to know if the gun is unsafe. Again, that is a much different question than is it less safe than some other design. A gun that fires without trigger interaction is unsafe to me. A gun that fires with trigger...

    A coworker of mine is good friends with a competitive shooter. That competitive shooter watched a friend in competition shoot himself with a P320. It was a ND, not an AD. Guy had his finger on the trigger, went to re-holster, and his finger got caught on his shirt causing a trigger pull...

    Damn. I’m sorry for you and your family. It will take time for sure, but your family will heal.

    One thing is certain, Sig’s responses have created a situation where it doesn’t really matter if they are in fact right about the P320. A massive number of people will likely never buy sigs again.

    Honest questions. Did the military and other groups test the P320 before adopting? How rigorous are those tests? Is it a “cool, shiny new penny and they will give us the best deal” kind of thing? Or, is it actual real world, put it through its paces kind of testing? Why is it not a fair...

    Sig is for sure all in and it will be interesting to see how this plays out. That said, as someone who has just a bit of experience in the world of burdens off proof, someone is going to have to do a much better job of showing a design flaw leading to a readily repeatable AD…without any input...
