Recommended Posts

A true purple on a color calibrated monitor....in both daylight pictures anyway

 

Though the first picture makes me wanna start (or dredge up) an EDC thread....

It's purple on my galaxy s6 so idk man. There definitely is an edc thread somewhere on here

Having seen how far out of calibration some monitors are, it makes me wonder how many people are buying things they think are a totally different color when shopping online.

 

I swore I remembered an EDC thread, I've probably posted in it and nothing's changed.

Thank you everyone for the great information. I ended up getting the Casio GSHOCK Rangeman in black for Christmas. So far I am really enjoying the watch and it seems like a great value for a little over $200 dollars. I realize that this model has been out for several years and they are pushing the Mudmaster watches but in my eyes the Rangeman has some better features such as being solar powered. Now all I need to do is learn how to operate all of the features. Thank you again for the advice!

I'm just wondering how long that watch is going to last.

happens to me all the time. Nothing to do with my monitor though I'm colorblind.

Back when I was in the Army you could ask the supply sergeant to issue you a watch which was basically a $10 Timex with a nylon strap.  

 

I would say a military spec watch is manually winded, non-reflective dark dull color and rugged, with a face that's viewable in the dark, but not so bright to give away your position...and cheap.

    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
    • Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
