I haven’t been participating on HDForums in a while but I can confirm! Between people arguing over brands, the people arguing over intervals, the few arguing over actual oil analysis tests, and everyone else just throwing crap at the wall, it can turn into quite the show in general chat!

(I’ve currently been using Mobile 1 V-Twin in the engine and primary, 75/90 gear oil in the trans).

Also, last time I rode I had to have passed 47 riders during the day that I didn’t wave back to. I bet a few of them had their whole afternoon ruined because of that 😂.
 
I've noticed magnacut questions go unanswered and wonder why.

To build anticipation?
To build suspense towards a great outcome?
Pressed for time?
Still working on it's HT?
MC turned out to be not as good as its hype?

😆🤷🏽‍♂️

You left out a few likely options Christian,
i’ll add them…….

To inspire people to use the search function and answer their own questions?

Because the same type of question gets asked over and over?

Because the same type of question has been answered over and over?

The team has chose to build knives with their time rather than answer questions?

Maybe, just maybe, the constant questions that start with I want, I need, can you, will you, when will, can we get updates, any progress, how about pictures, what’s next, how many, will you do it this way, will you do it that way and so on and so on has finally got to the point that he just said fuck it?

(Read the last one again, it’s the right answer)

Control yourselves and have some patience you thirsty bitches.

Today I am getting a free gun (sorta).

When my ex-wife and I divorced we were on better terms than we are now, and I left her my Glock 19 for a house gun because it was the only one of my guns she could shoot and have some hope of hitting her target.

I have missed that gun because it was not just a G19, it was a reworked by Lou Biondo of Business End Customs, who I do not believe is taking work requests for polymer guns anymore because he got real big as a 1911 smith.

Anyway, I'd given it up for dead in the five years since my divorce, but half an hour ago she calls and says that she had been keeping it at a friend's house who had a gun safe, and that friend was moving somewhere and can't keep it anymore. My ex has a lot of small kids and no safe of her own, and it has apparently either not occurred to her that she could have sold it, or she was actually trying to be decent, but she asked if I wanted it back, since she is not comfortable keeping it in her house.

So now I get back a customized G19 that I thought was long gone!

I've honestly moved on to Sigs for polymer guns but mainly 1911s for carry. But it's nice... for a Glock. I was actually thinking of letting it go and my SA Prodigy to get a Langdon Tactical 92 compact with all the bells and whistles or a second Colt Python. I actually got it when the Gen 4 Glocks first came out, and they came with three mags at the time, not sure if they're still doing that with the Gen 4 or Gen 5 guns.

I'm holding out hope that we'll see a "Langdon-ized" Prodigy one of these days. But in the meantime, I'm supremely happy with the plebian version. I can't shoot that thing without getting a big grin. Although it sure likes to burn through ammo...

I have an issue though, I hate selling guns haha.

I know the feeling. Before I started into knives, I bought, sold, and traded guns like mad. I was always loathe to part with one but I usually had to in order to acquire something else I set my sights on. With Oregon making it a lot more difficult to conduct private transactions, my assortment has remained pretty static for awhile.

No issues with taking that extra step but a lot of folks would opt to conveniently "ignore" the law and want to meet in some parking lot. Sorry, I am not making a statistic out of myself - it's why such laws only really impact the law-abiding.
