Im back bitches. Its been like 4 years at least.

>>111240

wow damn

Im still alive. new job, new call center. Working on my enlistment process as a 35P, should be ready to roll to pog basic around income tax time (so we have some savings). New call center job (i handle medicare part D mail order pharmacy) has decent pay if you work it right. Saturday ill be working 7am-4pm at $15-$18 an hour when my normal pay is 8.50 currently, after next week ill be at 9.50. There are quite a few people there that throw in some over time every day and are walking out with $2500 bi weekly pay checks. So im just going to work myself near to death until mid january so I can pay some opchan folks back with interest.

Life has just been a mess for the past year. Hurricanes threatening to flatten my city, trying to keep my car running, taking care of step daughter and all that.

I miss you crazy fucks.

>>111250

Hey Sneaky, you still into the occult?

>>111254
Always, what supernatural force vexes you my friend?

>>111267

Ghosts. Strange smells. Shadow people. Visual aberrations I can't explain (Pic related).

>>111268
Even if I looked at the file extension that pic is pretty spooky.

>>111269

That picture was taken at Horns Creek Baptist Church in Edgefield County, South Carolina. One of the oldest churches that I'm aware of in the state. When I say old, there was a Revolutionary War battle fought at or near there, and the small graveyard there still bears the dead from that conflict.

Some info.

This was the picture that I took maybe a minute before that one that I shared, and you can tell that there are a few visual aberrations, but nothing like in the one I initially shared.

The date for the two photo's I shared are from 11-22-2013.

Here's another screwy photo that I can't explain. This photo was taken on 9-13-2013, same location. This particular photo was of the parsonage across from the actual church, where the preacher lived. There's is a human silhouette that I can't explain in that shot, window frame to the right of the doorway. It wasn't in any the shots at the beginning of the string, then it's in the shot for this photo and 3 more photos, then isn't in any more of the shots for the rest of that string. We were the only ones there, the parsonage is at least two and a half feet off the ground.

Strange shit, man.

  >>111268
That picture looks like what ghost types call "orbs" or I call "bugs and dirt and shit that floats in the air when you are not in a hermetically sealed room".

>>111273
That one is pretty awesome actually. Im digging it. Kind of reminds me of this video for whatever reason.

Looks like you have a cool little ghost stomping area, you should try doing some EVP's or some such.

Its unfortunate that I am affectionately referred to as a "ghost nope". If im 30+ feet away my wifes team will get TONS of intelligent chatter on the ghost box/evp. I walk within that 30 feet it dies out, I walk away it comes back. I wanna play with ghosties too.

>>111274

I see where you're coming from. The thing of it is, it wasn't windy that night. I remember because that was my initial thought. Whenever we picked up stuff like that, we would do our best to figure and find the most logical solution, be it wind, bugs, dust or other particulates, or reflected lights.

Bugs are easy to pick out. Dust is also easy to pick out, too. Smoke (cigarette smoke) is sometimes harder to pick out, especially depending upon humidity levels - the humidity can sometimes reflect light funny, and smoke seems to exacerbate this. But, once you've seen it enough, you can start parsing it out because it tends to flow in a way that fairly consistent, especially if the air is still.

For some of these pictures, I could easily explain them away. For those that I've shared, well, I'm at a loss.

>>111276
I can dig it. Orbs/those sort of photo anomalies never really do it for me just because its fairly easy to debunk. Now video footage of orbs doing shit that bugs and dust dont do I am ok with.

But my wife, myself, and a few of my friends into the ghosty stuff think >>111273 this picture is fanfuckingtastic. If you get a chance to go back to that place, do some EVPs in that building. Or if you have a ghost box, use that.

Have a cool ghost box story from when my little family evacuated due to harvey. Ended up in my moms vacation home at canyon lake (new braunsfuls tx, can see the damn from her back porch).

First night with a marine friend and his wife and my wife.

>Getting decent hits on the ghost box, one voice came through very strong. Mind you we are sweeping 300 channels a second, one band sweeping forward, one sweeping backwards) Voice is super sarcastic
>Marine friend: Whats with the pile of sticks outside,
>Sarcastic Ghost: For fire... duh.
>Marine Friend: If I stood on it would you burn me?
>SG: Sure (super super sarcastic)
>Voice chatted back and forth, called him a faggot once or twice. But he is a marine, so thats an easy mistake.
Ive noticed when my stepdaughter is near it cancels out my ghost nope, shes probably pretty talented medium wise. Anywho, next night stepdaughter wasnt with us so we got nothing. I went outside for a walk, they got a lot of shit.
>Wife calls me back inside "You need to hear this"
>Friend on recording "Is there anyone you want to talk to here?"
>Recording (im listening after the fact) "SneakyGit or SneakyGit's Sister"
Called us both by name. Only my wife knows my sisters name at that time. So... That was cool. And its... super clear.
But Im ranting, Ill email ya to keep the clutter out.

>>111317

I wish that the structure was still there. The state of South Carolina, in their infinite wisdom, knocked down that structure and built a new structure that someone lives in now, in order to dissuade folks from vandalizing the place. I would love to talk to the person that lives there to find out if they've experienced or seen shit that they can't explain.

My mom once upon a time did an internship at the ministry of labour. She got a task in her first week and got working. After slightly over a week, she turned in her work to her boss and asked for another task.

The next day, she was cornered by a few union members who had been working in that specific department for decades. She got told that the work she turned in generally took another worker in the department 3 months to complete and that she now wasn't allowed to do any other work at all for the duration of her internship or they'd make sure she'd get in trouble.

Ministry of labour, ladies and gentlemen...

>me: "...you mean I could've slacked off for 1.5 days?"

All that aside, if your goal is to slack off as much as possible, you really need to find a job that interests you and motivates you dude... Life is too fucking short to spend it watching the clock slowly creep further. A healthy work ethic and coworkers with similar mindsets make motivation contagious.

I have thus far avoided death. Possibly back in the loop for a while.

I have thus far avoided death. Possibly back in the loop for a while.

Having now experienced both, I find it interesting that...

...in the interview for CBP, the primary concern is whether I (the candidate) would draw and fire my service weapon (use lethal force) to protect myself and my partner, if threatened by illegal immigrants.

...in the interview for TSA, the primary concern is how much I talk about how great I am when a problem arises (regardless if I am the cause, or someone else is the cause) and how I contribute so much in a given situation.

The dichotomy interests me, given that both agencies are responsible for secure entry/egress for the nation.

I'm back I guess.
What's up

>>111693
Glad to see you're alive PJ. Can't remember if you were around when I got a PTRD and went from /k/anadian to WarPlanRed. That aside, OPchan is crawling along faithfully, and it's become the comfy place where threads last months but where shenanigans are in short supply.

>>111692
Go CBP and be at the border between Alberta and Montana in like six months or something (probably). I'll bring you coffee and shit.

>>111713
We're still friends on FB right?

because I'm debating on buying a single shot .45-70 and could use some pointers on getting someone to craft stupidly hot loads for it.


If you know what I mean

>>111718
>FB
I think so, but I check it probably once every couple months. Email in the field if you want to contact me reliably and quickly lol.

If you're going for a break action single shot like an H&R, I'm actually not sure about what kind of loads they can handle. If they're good to go I'll definitely get you some horsepower. It depends how much you want, because the limiting factor is usually brass for hot 45-70. If you want to push 500 grain bullets past about 1750ft/s from an 18.5" barrel, skip the Government and go to Winchester or even Rigby.

Verily, I say...
Even though, I am rarely here...
Never do I forget this place...

Just because I am not around doesn't mean I am not with you...
Unfazed you should be, I will never leave...

Do not ever fear...
Evermore, I am here...

I have returned.

Wut chilled with me over the weekend and we got pretty drunk, shot some gats, and did things we shouldn't have. He's a good dude.

>>111740
Dude was supposed to hit me up if he stopped out here.
I'm jelly

I have mostly relocated and have started a new career-ish job. Because of the agreements I have with my employer, my OPSEC/PERSEC situation is a little bit more touchy so I will need to be shy on some details when posting shenanigans and whatnot.

My relocation will reduce my content posting for a little bit but things should go back to more-or-less "normal" in a month or two. My new place should let me work on some interesting projects and I'll post what I can about them as usual. Stuff like MG34 and PTRD updates won't really be affected. As a bonus, some larger projects could finally be birthed onto the actual market where it would have been nigh impossible to do so as a private civilian entity beforehand.

>why haven't I made a youtube channel
I've mentioned youtube vids, channels, and such a few times and I have previously experimented with youtube. The reason for abandoning those endeavors is simple so I'll be blunt.

I've seen too many people up here, a few are actual real life friends, get completely raped by the horse cops. We're talking 2+ years of court battles and over 40000 leaf yen in associated fees. They were innocent and in the end were cleared of all charges (obviously), but that doesn't matter. This is leafland, if firearms are involved you are NOT innocent until proven guilty. If you are charged, do not pass go, do not collect 200 dollars, you're basically fucked. The prosecution will throw any and all kinds of shit at the wall just to see what sticks with no accountability. If you are a legal law-abiding firearms owner in Canada, no matter how above-and-beyond you stick to the letter of all the laws, you risk getting tied to the ground and fucked with a legal rake just because someone doesn't like your face. They do not have any problems with planting evidence, sabotaging, booby-trapping, or performing other unsavory acts just to see how juicy of a newspaper headline they can come up with.

I do not, will not, have not performed illegal acts or condoned such acts. It may sound "paranoid" to have such feelings about certain authorities, but regardless of how it may seem, it is more than bad luck and some anecdotes. The fact is that if someone sees something they think is illegal, even if it isn't in any way, you can kiss your life goodbye.

Basically, until I can secure a position of safety and security by befriending as many of the local authorities as possible (something that's more or less possible now), my activity will remain quite subdued. I have seen potentially terrifying legal situations diffused by good character references from the first responders, so anything helps. I do have legal insurance specific to firearm ownership, but for the foreseeable future, I will be keeping my activity off the main social channels to put my mind at ease. Most of the aforementioned cases were because some soccermom/fudd saw something on some social channel and went full MUH CHILLUNS, so I guess OPchan being under the usual radars has some benefits. I mean the most we seem to get is a sales guy wandering in from google and putting his name, email, and post subject in the fields while fumbling with post links and tripping over replies in complete confusion so I'm a little less wary of putting content here than other websites.

>>111951
Man you should move to America.

>>111958
Yeah man.

I wish.

Moving to America is the end goal to my relocation. I typed up a big thing then deleted it because it's easier/faster for me to fill this little flowchart out. Either way just starting the process probably won't be for like 5 years or so.

>>111959

Sounds like someone needs to man up and get gay married

>>111968
This option is still on the table.

Another complication regardless is current firearm collection. A lot of them can't really be brought down. It's why the previous way of getting noticed by big gun company sempai might work better as they could potentially work some magic and bring in some guns as dealer samples or something like that.

>>111969

I volunteer to babysit your collection in such an instance

>>111972
I'm afraid the logistics would make that pretty difficult, we're probably two thousand miles apart now.

>>111973

Ah don't worry about that, I'm looking at picking up a P71. That should be able to hold all of it still right?

>>112007
>Ah don't worry about that, I'm looking at picking up a P71. That should be able to hold all of it still right?

I miss my old cop car. At this point I think it would still all fit they were all in soft cases and no ammo. Probably.

>>112008
Well clearly in such a situation you'd have to have a going away party where all the ammo is used to celebrate your moving to the promised land.

I'm not 100% on a P71 though, trying to find a detective's is a bit of a pain. Not sure settling for a patrol is wise at this point.

>>112010
As much as I love the ol panther body veeyate I can't seem to get away from the toyota matrix as cheap, reliable, practical, cheap on gas, etc. It might be one of the best choices for an "appliance car" as far as I'm concerned, and mid 2000s seems to be a good time for used in decent shape, cheaper to buy, not so old as to have a hard time finding spare parts, but not so new as to plastic shit everything computers everywhere stuff.

Still. If I could put ultimate practicality aside I'd probably go back to a P71. In my promised land, a Crown Victoria sits, waiting.

>>112011

Practicality? I've got that covered...

>>112012

>>110622
Just saw this post and your email is ded.

I wound up importing a girl from Missouristan, bought a wood lathe, am on occasion being paid to make things out of wood both round and rectangly. Made a cool little babytooth box for my nephew and another one out of the same wood for my suspicion of future offspring of my own. The tree was from the next town over from where me and my Missouristani mail order bride grew up so it seemed appropriate.

My level of jewish girl catnip has not gone down, i had to go out of state to find a good quality shiksa. She still looks pretty jewy so we get asked to go to jewish community events when we're out at farmers markets and makers spaces and such.

Still working the shitty weekend call center trucking job.

Well, it's been a while since I've even looked at this place, much less posted. Used to be UnderageButArmed and SomewhatAgedAndArmed way back in the day, if anyone here even remembers that, but here I am at any rate.

>>112019

sup

>>112017

Hey hey. The email went through, I just don't check it enough.

I'll call you later and we can shoot the shit. Life's been interesting in lots of good ways.

What actually happened to Balci, that fucking Kurd?

>>112087
I wonder that often.

>>111740

Wut's a damn solid mongrel, and no mistake. It's been a couple of years since I gave him the amicitia nostra, and I would still trust him -- nearly implicitly -- should the occasion arise.

Just... Don't let the fucker talk you into things.

>>111749

You need to be nicer to certain people, you bitter, cantankerous old fuck.

Good to see you're still alive, though. How are Ein and the girl?

>>111959

I'll no shit gay marry a fellow operator for citizenship, bro. I'm 100% fucking serious. I'm sure I'm not the only one who would, too. Pull the plug on your old life and get your candy ass to Freedomistan. Fuck all this "maybe in fifteen years if the fucking stars magically align" bullshit, make it goddamn happen.

No butt stuff tho.

>>112269
Where you at? Email in the field.

>>112269
>No butt stuff tho.
So what can you do for me?

Been so long I don't remember how to trip.

I've got a lot of tripfriends on Facebook.

nobody remembers me
