Spend money on an American product

I bought 5 boxes of 30-06 once
The guy threw in another with 9mm
Called me a jackass for wanting to return it

>buy a new glock
>doesn't even come pre-loaded with any ammo

wtf, I hate Glock now!

i bought a gun and it came with no ammo, i better return it

wait, you got a box of 9mm free, and you wanted to return it? And you think that makes you not a jackass? He's being a nice guy, just take the damn free ammo. Give it away at the range if you don't want to keep it.

The PD35 might just be the best 18650 flashlight on the market. I've had mine for 5 years now and carry it every day. Cold, rain, grease, drops, etc; its been through it all and never skipped a beat. Spend a few dollars and get some Orbtronic 3500mah 18650s and a half way decent charger and you'll be good to go.

Yeah, but the gun came with ammo right? Checkmate loser.

1. Fenix is a Chinese owned and operated company that makes Chinese products for Chinese people that just happens to have a good international marketing plan to get their lights into American stores like REI and Cabelas.

2. Many Fenix lights do come with batteries, but there are extra shipping restrictions imposed on lithium batteries these days, and shipping the flashlights without the batteries probably makes things easier for themselves, and also their distributors.

>Fenix
>best anything
>he's never heard of Acebeam

What do you guys think of the Thorfire four-barrel? I have a couple of extra 18650s lying around and figured I could just throw them in there and be good to go.

Shipping batteries with a product is Chink-tier commercialism. Batteries have a surprisingly short shelf life, after which they start leaking.

>a couple extra 18650s lying around
Pretty sure this is the same bait that gets posted in every flashlight thread, but if not, you want to be careful whenever choosing lithium batteries for a multi-cell flashlight. They need to all be the same charge, the same age, the same brand, the same model, everything. I don't know if that flashlight runs batteries in series or parallel, which does matter, but you need to find that shit out first if you want to get one. The danger is over-discharging the weakest cell, which causes fires, and if your flashlight is sealed up and water-tight, all those escaping gasses building up in the sealed metal chamber is generally considered unhealthy for your hand.

You have no idea what you're talking about. Please don't post in this thread.

These are the ones I was talking about.

If you have four of the same model that are the same age and have been used about the same amount, it should be fine. You might double-check if those batteries aren't too long for the Q8. Sometimes Olight batteries are pushing the limits of cell spec length.

>Talking shit about fenix

Get fucked, chink brand but is it fucking good.

>I have never ventured outside of the brands of flashlights carried by REI

>*insert assumptions*

Get fucked, been using fenix since my iraq deployment and never looked back.

ADDS TO WEIGH FAG CANT AFFORD THE POSTAGE

You can't afford a surefire?

Why fix something that's not broke, litrelly never ever had a single problem with fenix flashlights. Now go get fucked.

Im stuck with 2000 round of left handed 7.62x39

That will teach me to read the information on the box more closely next time

Imagine being this much of a fragile faggot.

I'm sure each model has its own UI, but the two I tried both required a press-and-hold to turn them on or off. Quick click to cycle modes. Very annoying system. If I want light, I want it NOW. If I want light to go away, I want it to turn off with a single button press.

Shipping batteries in the US is regulated at some retarded level. I ordered a battery tender it was treated like a battery itself. Box had the flammable battery warning and it was shipped via ground.
You should be thankful it didn't come with any batteries.

>all batteries are alkaline batteries
>if you question me, it's because you're a fragile faggot
>I'm not actually too retarded to figure out why I'm wrong

Nice deflection, you absolute retarded ass.

You've clearly never held a proper fenix like the one in OP.. I'll excuse your ignorance.

>buying products from people who donate to grabbers
nigga pls

>wipes his ass with toilet paper made by people who donate to grabbers
>sips a beverege made by people who donate to grabbers
>drives a car made by people who donate to grabbers
>wears clothes made by people who donate to grabbers
>*sees someone who owns a gun accessory on the no-no list*
>"you better not support them gun grabbers, boy howdy!!!!!"

you're also missing a hole on that frame, hombre.

so where exactly are you on the spectrum, user?

M’kay. So Surefire’s ownership might have donated to people who support certain aspects of communism but can’t actually implement it. Fenix LITERALLY is owned by red Chinese Communists!

Nope.

maybe read the entire product description next time faggot

You are posting in a thread about flashlights and trying to use “being on the spectrum” as an insult. Take a few moments to reflect on the life choices that have led you to this moment.

>Fenix LITERALLY is owned by red Chinese Communists!
I don't own any Fenix products, nor did I endorse them.

You never considered to check the political donations of the companies that make all the other products in your life, but you’re perfectly willing — eager, even, to punish gun companies and gun accessory companies for their perceived slights against your beliefs. Think about that.

Good! Because if you have ever bought a Fenix or even so much as touched one by accident, that is the same as supporting gun-grabbers and sending the ATF into peoples homes to shoot their family pets.

well
I use bidets like a civilized person.
I drink water 90% of the time.
I'm wear mostly imported clothing, and of those made in the US are not people who donate to grabbers.
Imported cars.

Again, what point were you trying to make?

If you own Troy Industries products, even if you bought it based on its strengths as a product and knowing nothing of the controversy, you support the sniping of pregnant women. Pure and simple. This is why the rest of us boycott them, since we don’t want to be thought of as supporting that.

Did you check the company roster of the bidet manufacturer to make sure there are no ex-cops who shot innocent people? Nope. You didn’t.

Japan doesn't care about the 2a.

I wasn't the one who posted that original comment, dumbass. I just call out fragile faggots when I see them.

>implying I bought that rear buis

And yet you are willing to financially subsidize their gun-grabbing, tyrannical regime. Absolutely sickening. How do you sleep at night?

You seem confused and angry.

>you're likely to buy from some companies that support gun-grabbing so that means you should buy from more of them
wow, excellent logic.

It was $60 five years ago. It has done everything I have ever asked of it. Yes, its Chinese but its also a very high quality product that I feel comfortable recommending to others. Are brands like Surefire and what have you better? Probably but they're also several times the price and most cannot use cheap and effective 18650s. I'll give the chinks credit when it comes to flashlights.

>How do you sleep at night?
Pass out pretty late these days, and it's kind of humid, so I tossed the blanket to side.

The water you drink was brought to you through plumbing infrastructure that was paid for with money taken through coercion. Drinking city water is the same as supporting socialism.

I'm not the one so butthurt about someone having an opinion about batteries that I demand they not post anymore because I can't handle seeing their opinion. I feel really bad for you. Do you never go outside out of fear that you might see an opinion that you disagree with in the real world that you can't do anything about?

If he doesn't live in Japan how would that affect him in any way?

Nice straw man. No. The logic is, why do you selectively and hypocritically punish the companies that are, on the whole, supporting freedom, while supporting other companies that don’t even make guns to redeem themselves but donate as much or more to gun grabbers? It’s a simple question. I ran it by my seven year old nephew once and even he understood, so don’t pretend you are stupider than a seven year old. I know you understand. You just don’t want to admit that you’re wrong because you would be faced with a very uncomfortable truth.

He only said he has a problem with gun-grabbing, not necessarily with socialism.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_gun_control_argument

Sometimes it’s best that ignorant people don’t add a bunch of noise in a thread like this. Nobody is getting “triggered.” It’s common courtesy that if you don’t know shit about a subject that you refrain from opining about it. I’m sorry your ego could not handle the realization that you need to learn more before people care what you have to say.

Don’t you want to travel to Japan with your gun and have concealed carry reciprocity there? The country infringes your rights whether you live there or not.

Where I live tap water is off limits unless you want more than 10 fingers and toes.

yet you are assuming he buys from companies that donate even more to gun grabbers than surefire without a sliver of proof and must resort to ad hominems because you can't support your argument alone.

A veritable socialist paradise.

You think that's bad? I recently bought a whole can of surp 9mm, and in the can, some of the bullets were upside down, some were back to front, it's just madness.

Why do you assume he ever wants to travel to Japan?

You’re a retard. It’s impossible to live without buying products that are made by Democrat-supporting companies.

Why do you hate your mother? Is she the one who taught you how to nitpick?

>2018+1
>buying flashlights that run on cr$123 batteries and not rechargeable ones

Saying you are not triggered does not make it any less true. In fact, most of the time it makes it more true. you never answered the question, do you never go outside out of fear that you might see an opinion that you disagree with in the real world that you can't do anything about?

Ah, I see, you cannot support your argument so you resort to calling criticisms of your argument "nitpicking" so that you don't have to respond to them.

Yeah, but it came with a free grenade

>Coming to a state near you.
Thanks to all the purchases you're making.

>I use bidets like a civilized person
Ew gross, you're like one of those immobile obese fags that gets a minder to spray his asshole with the garden hose. True civilization is using natural sea sponge on a stick.
>I'm wear mostly imported clothing,
Why is this a pro? You're either giving money to communist sweatshop owners or antigun af euros.

Impossible, really? All companies are Democrat supporting companies? Just because you are a s oy boy who can't live without his Amazon Alexa, doesn't mean others are as weak-willed.

>Whole - all of; entire.
You can’t support freedom while trying to grab guns user you also can’t claim they support freedom on the whole as the pick and choose which part of the constitution they like and don’t like

Not him, but surefire is shit tier. I've had three issued to me, and all three fucking sucked.

First one was brand new, tail switch kept falling off.

Second one went through batteries like crazy, brand new energizer lithiums would dim after 10 minutes of use, and be completely dead at 15.

Third one ran fine until the first battery change, then somehow shorted out when the batteries were replaced correctly, blowing the bulb. Surefire sent me a free led "upgrade" kit, which ended up extending the battery life, but dropping the lumens from 250 to about 25. I would've been better off with a fucking keychain maglite.

Plus their shit is stupid expensive. I switched to streamlight 5 years ago and never went back. Way more reliable and cheaper.

Need sauce on that bs

>shit is stupid expensive
Their customers are no different than Apple's at this point. They're just paying for a brand, which actually isn't known for having the best products, it's known because they secured the most contracts. Idiots just gravitate to whatever they see the l33t operators using.

It was a genuine inquiry my good faggot

Hit the nail right on the head. The only product of theirs I actually like is the 870 integrated forend light, but that's about the same price as the gun itself.

cr123a check mate faggot

Basically the same thing for the MP5 hanguard light is $650. Why?
>Because why not? Fuck you, you're an HK customer what's money to you, you fucking schmuck.

>bullets were upside down
return the immediately there should be an address on the can, thats not normal

I tried, but they said they would only take the ones that weren't in the proper position.

My fenix is pretty badass. Two buttons. One turns it on and off, another cycles the brightness. Brightness is memorized, so I rarely have to fuck with it.
Strobe function is momentary, and is operated by holding down the power button.

I bought a pd35 and it's a really nice light but the user interface is garbage, wouldn't recommend it at all

>user interface is hard

Are you brain damaged?
