I bought a beretta 92a1 back in February brand new and have only been able to put about 150 rounds down range on it. Since owning it, factory rounds will cycle through the gun perfectly fine, but the slide won't lock back on the final bullet. 

On reloads, the gun will either stovepipe or fail to eject every single round. 

What does this sound like to you guys? The reloads are the same load as the factory I fire. Even tried a slightly hotter load and it didn't help. Is it because the spring is so new? is the recoil spring too heavy? Do I need to cycle more rounds to break in the gun? Everything is factory and I'm not sure what's happening.

Trying to use the hotspot on my razer phone 2. I have cricket as a carrier and when I used the feature on my razer phone 1 it worked just fine. Every time I try to connect to my phone on my laptop it says "Connected, no internet". I do have full 4g LTE connectivity right no on my phone so it's not like I am struggling to keep a connection. I even double checked it wasn't my laptop by connecting to another friends mobile hotspot and connecting his had no problem.

I have a package getting delivered to me due for this Thursday. It's UPS shipping and was coming from California to Illinois. Like I said it is scheduled this for This Thursday but last night it got to a holding facility 50 minutes away. Besides being tortured that a package I am very much looking forward to being less than an hour away and I can do nothing about, why would a shipping company hold a package so close but not send it out? It's happened before and instead of getting frustrated I decided that I would look for answers.

Do any owners have the 0-60 times on this car. I am talking about the preferred II AWD and not the GS. I have seen anywhere from 5.6-6.4 depending on the source. I know the GS is somewhere around 5.4 but I am trying to figure out the delta between the GS and the 4 cylinder turbo model. Also, don't make this section about your opinion on 0-60 times. I just want to know the times and not why you think they are dumb.

I have an MSI Rx 580 wit the twin frozer (or how ever its spelled) cooler on it. I was wondering if this cooler pulls air from the case into the card or pushes the heat out from the card into the case?

Simple questions. It has 48,000 miles and has never been modded or retuned. How long can I expect this car to last me in terms of miles? I drive about 6500 a year. Are the rumors about BMW life expectancy true or overblown? I've heard people say "Oh I took mine to 4 million miles (exaggerating)" and others say "every 2 feet the engine blew up (still exaggerating)." Also, the cost of ownership; are oil changes a nightmare cost, tires, etc, etc?

I am looking into getting a use Golf GTI and was wondering how long the engine should last me? The one in my area that I can afford is at 80,000, stock, and has a good maintenance history. I will also keep up good regular maintenance, won't be using the car for track days, and don't plan on modifying it except if I do not like the speaker system but that's about it.

On the market for a hot hatch and I was taking a look at the used market for used Subaru WRX's, focus ST, velosters, ect ect. The WRX for me would be the best choice due to performance, awd, and its got one of the bigger hatches. But every WRX I find in my price range has 90,000 plus miles. Assuming the engine has been kept close to stock, how long can I expect that engine to last me if I keep up on regular maintenance.

I've been looking into the used market for the Focus ST (2013-2014) and from what I can tell most of them have the Recaro front seats which are notorious for not being friendly to taller and bigger guys. A two categories I fit into. I was wondering what were my options for replacing them just in case I can't find a used model with out the Recaro's in them. Could I take it to a Ford dealership and trade the seats in for the standard one? Or just pay for he standard ones and have either a dealership or autoshop install them for me? Or are there other options I'm not thinking of? Thanks for any help.

I have a Sony sound bar with subwoofer and was thinking about connecting two desktop studio speakers to the system. The speakers and soundbar have 3.5mm jacks so in theory could I just hook them both up to a 3.5mm hub or would that cause audio lag? Or what other solutions would you guys suggest. Any help is welcome and thanks for your time.

Recently when on a diet and quit soda cold turkey. I have found that giving up the flavor of soda was easy but as it turns out I really miss the carbonation. Are there any low calorie carbonated drinks that don't taste like garbage. Keep in mind I am not talking about and diet soda or things like coke zero. Like good brands of flavored sparkling water and such. Thanks for the help.

Also small extra question- Is ginger ale soda?

So I'm 6'4, 360lbs, 22, and decided I no longer wanted to be fat a month ago. Signed up for a gym and work out for about 1.5 hours (hour of lifting and then some form of cardio) 5-6 times a week. I also cut my diet down (it could be better but let's just say I went from 1 litter of soda a day to about 1 a week). Building muscle hasn't been a problem and has never been for me. My problem my whole life (including when I was in my best shape) was burning fat. Recently someone brought up to me the idea of fat burning supplements but I ignored it at the time but it's on the mind again. My question is, can these things help, and which ones do you recommend if they do work?

My charging cable recently became unusable, it accidentally got cut, and I was wondering if anyone knew where to find replacement charger. I have found various replacement chargers online but I they don't specifically list which razors they work for. Thanks for any help!

I am a college student in Illinois but my technical permanent residence is still listed in California. I am going into a job by my school where I will often be on my own in the store. The job isn't in the nicest neighborhood but it isn't in the worst either. I was wondering how buying a hand gun for me in this case would work. Also how obtaining a conceal and carry would work. Thanks for any help you can provide.

I am decorating a wooden box and want to burn a design into it and stain it. Would I burn in the design and then stain it or stain the box then burn it? Or does it even matter?

I am going into my senior year of college and as many people do I have started to think about life after school. One of the big concerns, besides the fact that I have no idea where I will be working, is that I have no idea what I am going to do about where I will live. I am in school to be a youth pastor, leave your religious arguments out of this topic please, and in my denomination the average pay is $40,000 per year but that is the average or a 5-15 year pastor. Average entry pay is somewhere around $30-35,000 depending on the size of the church (and also assuming I will be a full time hire). To add on to this, at this point in my life I am single with no prospect of a serious relationship anytime soon so for a while I will more than likely be single income. I do plan on working a part time job to help supplement any potential income issues (I gotta eat) and I am think substitute teacher. So to the heart of the question, would a tiny house be a good idea for me? I think it would be due to my potential financial future and I accept that I will not have the room I am used to. I'm also a taller guy (6'4") but I have seen tiny houses that are nicer to taller people. So thanks for your time to answer and have a good day.

My PC doesn't have native wifi capabilities so I bought a Kinivo 380 Wireless adapter which worked fine before I move but now at my new location it gets stuck on "Verifying and Connecting". I thought it might be the hardware so I borrowed my friend panda wireless PAUO5 but the same thing happens. All my other electronics connected fine (laptop and phone) but for some reason my desktop wont. I am running windows 10 as my operating system.
