  • Absolutely not. Especially with said small mags, op said 5 but for Cali I believe it’s 10?

    Either way that’s a small fucking mag even for a round like 5.56 (standard us rifle round). You could easily stuff 4-5 in your two pants pockets.

    Sticking with the 5.56 example, push the mag in, hit the bolt release to load the first round, pull the trigger and the next is auto loaded. Pull the trigger for each bullet and when there are no more the bolt will stay locked back. You push the mag release button, mag falls out, then you just slide a new mag in. Hit the bolt catch release and it will load the next round.

    It’s easy as fuck, no the goal isn’t to reload once a day. If anything the goal would be to hit the target with as few bullets possible x the person you replied to was just being facetious.

    here is an excellent example animation that covers the entire sequence from load to fire. Most of it is irrelevant but if you actually care you can jump around using the chapters

    The only laborious thing about reloading is putting each round in one by one. The video shows a 30 round mag so think of a mag 1/3rd of that for this post context. With stripper clips or a speed reloaded it’s easy and quick af. Realistically you’d go out with preloaded mags instead of a box of bullets you load on the fly. Always a good idea to take extra cartridges tho.

    Nfts are not simply images on the blockchain. The technology is not a scam even if scammers use one aspect of it to sell pixels for ridiculous sums of money

    But please, don’t let me stand in the way of a misinformed circlejerk

    I don’t have an ig account because I walked away from Facebook and and any other non-anonymous social media a long time ago and I just don’t want to get back in.

    For me i can see the allure of threads for those that do have an ig account and that will naturally bring others in. I will never bother because I can get the same or better in terms of content without sacrificing things I value.

    For those that do have an ig account, they’ve already given up all that data when they signed up for fb/ig so it was always going to have a good sized starting pool of content/users

    The real question is if people stay or if it acts as a springboard to other parts of the fediverse. Surely a combination of sorts
