    It's hard to say without a chrono, haven't splurged on one yet. I've been shot with it both before and after the mods and there was a noticeable difference in the sting.

    Mine's not the BCAR actually, OOD was out of the BCAR in the color I wanted so I went with a regular SCAR (also it looks a little better in my opinion because its longer).

    The good news is there are already metal plunger tubes on the market. But mine has held up so far.

    No worries! I didn't take it that way. I was initially going for more of an LVOA/recce look and instead ended up with what I think looks more like a bullpup sniper rifle.

    Yeah, it was bigger than it looked in the pictures but I kinda like it. May switch it up later.

    Really, the only way #2 isn't a lie is if they're also announcing a new slogan...

    EDIT: I suppose it's also possible that the social media manger that wrote #3 didn't realize that that statement literally can't be false the way it's worded.

    You can tell by how fervently they're arguing this when the solution to defederating a community they want to be involved in is just... going and making a free account on Threads.

    Meta is one of the most demonstrably evil corporations on the map right now. Feel free to go to Threads, Lemmy will be fine without you.

    They were out of the size I wanted. I finally ended up finding one and put it in this morning and it's not actually as long as I hoped with the quick change front end I printed for it. Luckily they had the length I actually need in stock!

    Which mag adapter is that? Is it just a spring detent so you can pull it out without holding a lever?

    Looking for a 40cm barrel compatible with the xshot longshot. Doesn't one end need to be chambered?

    The one thing I didn't get from all of this is whether or not he'll still be active in the hobby as a participant. It's sad to think that being a consistent content maker could ruin your enjoyment of a hobby on your own time, but at the same time there are are parallels in my own life that would make it understandable.

    Pretty much the same experience here, I joined a couple of nerf Facebook groups and even they were basically wastelands. Granted one of them was a page for a nearby local group so there's probably organization and conversation outside of their Facebook page.

    I just picked mine up the other day, kinda excited to start messing with it. Did you open yours completely or just take off the front end?
