So I am a bit of an Oakley whore. Meaning I do like many things made by Oakley. I own three pairs of boots, gloves, clothing, and even my glasses are made by them. The one thing that I always wanted but had never bought was the Juliet sunglasses. It was several years ago when I went to see Blackhawk Down and I noticed that Eric Bana wore an awsome pair of shades. After some research, I found out the name and I have wanted one ever since.
My inner eight year old just crapped my pants when I saw the trailer for this movie. As a kid, I loved Gavan a little too much. Many kids have sport figures as their childhood heroes. Mine were Japanese men who transformed to cyborgs.
Gavan's TV series was the first time I ever saw a light saber, though his was called a light sword. And his space ship is actually very similar to the Enterprise, complete with a saucer section and a lower section that could separate. Except the lower section could transform into a giant mechanical fire breathing dragon.
It is also fitting that the suit inspiration for RoboCop is coming out first. The RoboCop remake started shooting in Toronto last week as well.
Damn I am excited. The movie comes out on October 20th in Japan. It will be some time before we will get a good quality rip and a decent subtitle for this. It cannot come soon enough.
It has been almost two weeks since I received my PGC metal slide kit for the TM Glock 17. I installed it right away and it is a perfect fit. It required no sanding or fitting of any kind. Upon using it for the first few mags, I noticed the slide would stick half way through its cycle, but with use and some silicone oil, the problem seem to have disappeared. The pistol now cycles until the mag is empty.
I can now proceed with the purchase of some extra mags and a Blackhawk Serpa holster. The Serpa is my preferred holster but a stock plastic slide of the TM pistol will not fit in it due to a slight difference in the slide dimensions. The PGC slide is slimmer and is able to fit.
The standard issue of Toronto Police, the G17 is also used on the TV show Flashpoint by the SRU officers. This is the main reason for why I acquired the pistol to begin with.
Today, I attended a milsim game ran by Renegade. I was a little less than enthusiastic about attending the game, seeing as I am still suffering from a cold and I was pretty tired from attending a game at Ultimate Airsoft the night before.
