There are no restrictions regarding the use of optics, lights, select-fire backplates, or silencers. It’s likely for these reasons that TDI has since released an upgraded version called the Cobra, which not only folds for holster use but also comes with four adapters for use in 9mm full-size and compact Glocks from Gen 2-5. It may be OK for some limited light range use, but not much beyond that. While initially it seemed sturdy enough in the Gen4, once the stock was fully extended and shouldered there was a considerable amount of flex. The stock itself does get long enough to achieve a comfortable shooting position and avoid getting punched in the nose by the slide. Along the same lines, aftermarket magwells cannot be used, nor can you use a modified grip unless the grip cavity remains completely untouched. Use of some basepads and magazine extensions is restricted because the attachment mechanism prevents the magazine from fully seating. However, a Gen4 (which it wasn’t designed for) fit securely. While our model was labeled for full-size models Gen 1-3, it fit loosely and wobbled in all of them. The pointy end of the stock is simply inserted into the grip cavity behind the magwell, and a spring-loaded stud snaps into the lanyard hole. One of the touted advantages of the GLR-17 is the ease of attachment. We still thought it worthy of this guide not only for historical purposes, but also because several companies are now producing 1:1 clones at nearly 20 percent of the original price. In fact, this one is old enough that it’s been long discontinued. While there are some C96 Mausers and a handful of Browning Hi-Powers and Lugers with stocks, this TDI conversion is the first modern pistol stock we recall ever seeing. Length Added: 9 inches (closed), 13 inches (open) These should all be weighed in the balance if you’re looking at picking up some sort of Glock stock. Considerations as to whether they’re compatible with silencers, magwells, and magazine extensions are all into play as well as ambidextrous use and ease of reaching common controls. That said, the criteria, which we use to evaluate each one, can be applied to all on the market. We simply obtained samples of some of the most popular and interesting and broke them down for you. Of course, the conversions featured in this buyer’s guide are far from a complete list. Keeping all of this in mind, we made the decision to use a pair of registered SBR Glocks (one Gen3 and one Gen4) for use with this article, regardless if a stock or brace is used as to avoid any of the potential pitfalls. But that doesn’t mean it’ll go that way the next time. Ultimately after a very short wait, the jury thankfully came back with a not guilty verdict. Wright, 3:18-CR-162 the government sought to preclude the determination letters about braces and angled grips written by the BATFE FATD (Firearms and Ammunition Technology Division). However, that letter itself may not even help, in 2018’s U.S. Some companies have even gone so far as to not even submit for a BATFE determination as to the legality of their braces, instead relying on the letters of others (Flux Defense is among them). While at the time of writing there are no pending cases based on this that we know of, it’s definitely something to keep in mind. Several independent sources have informed us the BATFE internally decided that pistols weighing below 36 ounces unloaded rocking braces can be prosecuted as illegal SBRs the idea being that anything below that weight can successfully be fired without extra support. Also, a determination letter received from the BATFE to a manufacturer probably won’t stop you from being arrested by an overzealous police officer, but it may help you not be convicted (after a lot of time and money is spent). If you’re one of those who happen to have a brace on a pistol, this is something that you should definitely keep in mind. The (current) legal acceptance of the ability to add a brace to a pistol and shoulder it has brought many new items to the market, and that’s likely to continue until someone in the BATFE decides to get drunk and write another determination letter. The addition of a stock for a third point of contact allows one to shoot a pistol much more accurately and at greater distances. Originally, these items were developed for nations where it was easier for citizens to obtain pistols instead of rifles (here’s looking at you, Israel). There are some things that don’t quite make sense to the American market, and putting rifle stocks on pistols has certainly been one of them - at least until relatively recently.

There are so many GIF-making apps for desktops and mobile devices. You can make amazing animations by converting photos to GIF file format. GIFs are fun to share and surprisingly easy-to-create. With the launch of Audirvana, the software has become an exclusive platform that directly addresses the audio interface (sound card) and the DA-converter. When playing back music, the manufacturer strives to achieve the highest possible sound quality by following the ideal of a short signal path, bypassing possible stumbling blocks in the computer and in output devices with DA converters. When transmitting sound over a network, whether wired or wireless, the software supports the UPnP and DLNA protocols, which are supplemented by Bluetooth and Airplay. It is also possible to synchronise with the iTunes library, as well as control the library, with Audirvana serving as the downstream backend. And finally, support for MQA (Master Quality Authenticated) must not be forgotten in corresponding signal chains.Īudirvana is able to access files on your local hard drive, from the network, as well as the Hi-Res streaming services Tidal, Qubuz and HighResAudio. Linear audio files are processed in PCM format up to 384 kHz, as are DSD64/128 and multi-channel PCM and DSD files for surround sound. This includes not only compressed formats such as MP3 or AAC, but also lossless standards such as FLAC, ALAC (Apple Lossless) and WAVPack. To begin with, the software provides comprehensive support for file formats. Audirvana takes a completely different approach in order to achieve its self-set goal of delivering the most unadulterated sound reproduction possible. To this end, the software is not geared towards direct addressing of the converter, but merely uses the chosen environment of the computer. Likewise, it is to be expected that support for other streaming services is not available. An example of this shortcoming is the explicit integration of high-resolution file formats such as DSD and multi-channel audio. The software is certainly user-friendly, but there is a lack of universal format support. The cross-platform top dog for many is iTunes. This is despite the fact that the studio technology available for recording and mixing has long since exceeded the CD standard. This is, of course, frustrating for the discerning listener, as in many instances the quality of the audio has fallen below the CD standard. In addition, there are bottlenecks in the digital signal chain at points where compact data transfer rates are highly welcome, such as the case of Bluetooth connections. Today, such storage capacities concerns are almost redundant, yet music playback in significantly higher resolution formats has regrettably become a niche market. Compressed audio formats such as MP3 have instead become well-established due to limited storage capacity considerations. The introduction of successor formats SACD and DVD Audio has been a failure. They realise the dream of enjoying music at higher resolutions than the now obsolete 1982 compact disc standard (16-bit, 44.1 kHz, stereo). Per the Facebook live stream that ran last Sunday and has since been archived on YouTube (see below), Audirvāna Studio also brings with it a revised company name: Audirvāna note the accent above the second ‘a’ that ever-so-slightly extends its pronunciation whilst proving too much for the Google font used on this website.High-resolution audio formats are aimed at audiophile music lovers. An additional oversampling algorithm, “R8Brain”, has also been added to allow users more options in optimizing the interaction with their system and converter.” Mac users are not left out as Audirvāna Studio is already natively compatible with Apple Silicon and makes the most of Apple’s latest generation of processors in terms of audio performance. This avoids all intermediate software layers. Marking ten years in the music playback software business, Damien Plisson and his team have announced the forthcoming availability of Audirvāna Studio, the latest version of their desktop music playback and library organisation software.Īs part of a ground-up rebuild for both Windows and MacOS, Audirvāna Studio reportedly more tightly integrates locally stored content with that delivered by Qobuz, Tidal or offers better smart search adds 120,000 Internet radio stations and podcasts brings new remote control apps (iOS/Android) into play offers an enhanced metadata editor and – plot twist – promises an audio profiler that will weed out upsampled content.įrom the press release, “Always at the forefront of audio performance on a computer, Audirvāna Studio exclusively offers Kernel streaming mode on Windows 10: an incredibly transparent playback mode, as close as possible to the machine language. Our antivirus analysis shows that this download is safe. This program is an intellectual property of Paragon Software. The latest installation package takes up 33.9 MB on disk. And has a whole bunch of features in addition to cloning. Description The 10.0 version of Paragon Virtualization Manager 12 Professional Demo is provided as a free download on our software library. I just wanted to report that Paragon HDM has worked to clone a fairly complex Windows 7 install from HD to SSD quickly and easily. I haven't monitored this forum closely enough to know if this is still the conventional wisdom. I don't know if this needs stating now, but for years the mantra on this forum was to never attempt to clone Windows from a HD to a SSD: you must always reinstall Windows from scratch. If you have used the free version of Paragon Backup, then HDM is the same thing and acts (mostly) the same way, but it has a lot more features. And you still need a paid version to go from HD to SSD because the free version of Paragon doesn't support that at all.īut I've used the free version for years and figured that the cost of the HDM was minimal, compared to the additional features it adds. You can sidestep booting from recovery media with the free version by making a disk image in the full Windows program, and then using the full Windows program to restore from the disk image to a drive that is mounted in, say, a dock. (For starters, you have to figure out that restoring a disk image is three separate operations: 1., restoring the boot track, 2., restoring the system partition, and 3., restoring the part that we think of as the C: partition.) But it does work and I have used it several times. It is all GUI, but is Linux based and isn't quite as self-explanatory as the Windows program is. But it involves first making a disk image, creating a recovery disk (flash drive is easiest), booting from the recovery disk and restoring from the disk image. You can clone (from HD to HD, from SSD to SSD, but not from HD to SSD) with the free version of Paragon Backup. (I did use Magician to tune the OS for SSD after I booted up.) With newly-added features, you also can undelete and merge partitions, edit and view sectors in the built-in hex editor, convert partitions into primary and logical. I never cracked the manual and the user interface was mostly self-explanatory. With Hard Disk Manager, you can resize partitions on the fly to maximize available storage capacity. It worked more or less like I expected it to. So I bought a license and used to to clone from my HD to the SSD. The demo version is crippled enough that you can really only use it to see how the GUI of the program works. You can create drive image backups, but you can't create recovery media. You need to actually buy the program before you can see if it works. The only glitch is the "free demo" version of HDM is crippled and won't clone. I used HDM (Paragon Hard Disk Manager 14) to clone my C: drive to the Samsung SSD. The free version of Paragon Backup that I have been using to make drive images doesn't do this. And it adjusts as needed when going from HD to SSD. With the most important part for me right now is that it can clone (not just make a drive image) from drive to drive. Now that the drive is working I might try a copy of the Paragon Hard Disk Manager 14 Suite to clone my C: drive to the SSD. Today, you'll find her working on her current passion project, Write Or Die. The band would eventually be honored with a lot of local love and successfully broke into the festival circuit in 2014, opening for Bauhaus frontman Peter Murphy, Heart at BottleRock Festival, and TBD Fest only a few months following. It was used it as a vehicle to feature the talents of her compatriots in the scene and to challenge the status quo of what being a "singer-songwriter" was. The Autumn Sky band could range from solo performances in wineries to full band performances at huge venues, sometimes reaching 13 members at its peak including a string and brass section and touching on multiple genres. She had played over 500 gigs by 23 and had a knack for marketing and promotion, brainstorming new ways to reach fans and utilizing every available avenue, even going so far as to hand paint flyers when there wasn't money for a printer. She played at an open mic or a bookstore nearly every night of the week for over two years, saying she needed to "catch up" to her friends because she considered herself a late bloomer in performing and struggled with stage fright. At 23 years old, Autumn fronted her folk-rock band and was the only solo female act to ever be honored with the induction to the Hall of Fame (having received six awards total, including three Artist of the Year awards, back to back in the three years prior.) She was also the youngest inductee ever at the time, having begun her work on the particular project at just sixteen years old. Painting, reading and a love of words began at an early four years old and songwriting followed shortly after at five when Autumn was given a box to store the songs she made up for fun by her mother, who encouraged her to continue and keep a record of her work from then on. Together, her parents homeschooled their seven children together in many rural parts of the US, including the forests of Wisconsin and a restored 1970's commune on the hills of ocean-side Mendocino, CA. She was born the oldest in a family of seven children to a painting father who worked as a computer programmer and a singing mother who worked as a midwife. She is an advocate for sexual assault survivors, an activist against racism and for women's empowerment. Autumn Sky is a 12 year veteran of the music scene in Northern California and a Hall of Fame inductee in the Sacramento Music Awards.

She also intends to get her poetry published and to read her work more often in public. In the language of poetry, those words now seem to offer an ironic foreshadowing of her son’s death.īut her 7-year-old son, Lijuan, still lives, and Whiteside’s girlfriend is expecting to give birth to his baby boy, who also will be named Lionel.Īfter the funeral, Lindsey plans to hold a press conference to discuss violence and her son’s death. Lindsey often recites her own poems in public, but she does not know whether she will be able to read those lines today.īefore Whiteside was slain, Lindsey told a Times reporter that she was motivated to write poetry because “my boys are black boys in South-Central L.A. Those words will be read today at the funeral. I protected you for as long as I could, but you just had to hang out in the ‘hood.” I couldn’t go to sleep at night until I was sure you were all right. Baby, it was just because I wanted you to live. “Lionel, you know how mad I get, because of the stupid things you’d do you felt I was being too overprotective. “I felt like I didn’t deserve this after all the things I’ve been doing in the community.” Lindsey said she was shocked by the news, overcome by anger. Words often flow easily onto the page when Lindsey is creating a poem. It is something else to write about the death of one’s own child. Those words described the pain we all feel upon hearing about tragic, violent deaths. In fact, she has an entire volume of poems she has written for others’ funerals that she calls “Last Writes.” But those were poems about other people’s losses. She once wrote a poem about a passenger who was shot to death after stepping off her bus and landing in an altercation with police. She drives her Metropolitan Transportation Authority bus from the Los Angeles County Jail near Downtown on a route to Redondo Beach, and she often scratches notes for her poems on the back of passenger transfer pads during breaks. Life in tough Los Angeles neighborhoods has been a constant theme in Lindsey’s poetry. Said Lindsey: “I don’t feel that he was in a gang, but sometimes you don’t know your own kid.” She took a deep breath and added: “He was a boy in the ‘hood.” Police have made no arrests, and they say they are still investigating the shooting. No one will say whether the shooting was gang-related.
