The article by Clayton Walker from The Armory Life explores the question of whether investing in a custom pistol is worthwhile, particularly in the context of modern firearms such as the 1911 and Springfield Armory offerings like the XD Mod.3 and Hellcat series. Walker appreciates the precision and craftsmanship of high-grade, custom pistols, noting their superior mechanics and aesthetics. However, he argues that such upgrades are more beneficial to skilled shooters rather than novices, who might not experience a significant increase in shooting accuracy with a premium handgun. While some higher-end pistols offer notable enhancements that improve performance, entry-level guns today are also remarkably efficient, offering plenty of value for the price. Walker suggests that the decision to invest in a custom piece should depend on individual preferences, needs, and the potential for long-term returns or sentimental value, emphasizing that, ultimately, it's about choosing what makes the most sense personally in the context of one's purpose and enjoyment of the shooting sport.

When you are shooting, both mind and body are engaged. Arguably, it is our sight that matters a lot. This also means our eyes are in a vulnerable position.

In Time and Stars

[sammis-svsss-brainrot]

Many many many years after the events of SVSSS, Luo Binghe and Shen Qingqiu are celebrating their 10 millionth anniversary and Luo Binghe has somehow finally run out of ideas on what to give Shen Qingqiu to celebrate their union, because even the greatest of gift givers would run out of ideas after you've cultivated your way to immortality

So, begrudgingly, Luo Binghe turns to Shang Qinghua to ask for advice, after all, Shang Qinghua and his husband are always chattering away in that secret language of theirs and referencing strange things from their hometown, and perhaps if Luo Binghe has run out of things to gift his husband from this world he can gift him something from another

Shang Qinghua's eyes light up for once at the chance to help out his bro, and he tells Luo Binghe of a ballad from their hometown, one that was used by only the strongest of couples to showcase their commitment to one another and that performing it would be the perfect gift for Shen Qingqiu

Luo Binghe hurriedly agrees and Shang Qinghua teaches him all the words to the song and Binghe of course takes this and runs with it

Shen Qingqiu has no idea what his husband is planning for their anniversary but he knows Binghe has been very excited about showing it to him and so when he's directed to take a seat while his husband plays/sings an arrangement he crafted from Shang Qinghua's limited memory, he's very touched and enthused to hear what Binghe has in store

That is, until Luo Binghe actually starts singing

We're no strangers to love

You know the rules, and so do I

Shen Qingqiu is going to absolutely murder Shang Qinghua

The article "Continuous Precision Custom 1911 DS Prodigy" by Andy Grossman, published on The Armory Life, explores the recent surge in the popularity of double-stack 1911 pistols, highlighting the Springfield 1911 DS Prodigy. Priced significantly lower than its high-end competitors, the Prodigy offers value for money while still delivering exceptional performance. Grossman explains his decision to customize the Prodigy with the help of Continuous Precision, a custom machine shop specializing in law enforcement equipment enhancements. The customization process involved slide machining, grip modifications by Great Lakes Custom Works, and adding magazine extensions, resulting in a personalized firearm he dubbed "Prodigy 2.0." The final product maintained a balance of aesthetics and functionality, significantly enhancing the stock pistol's performance. Despite the additional customization expenses, the author concludes that this customized version of the Prodigy remains competitively priced and stands up well against pricier alternatives.

Can we please agree that the work of The Adjuster is art. Like unironically, this whole situation is 100% the greatest piece of performance art of all time and should not only be in your run of the mill history books, but it should go down in art history as well.

The bullets, the bag of monopoly money, the gun designed to euthanize sick animals, all of it is performance art and I am obsessed.
