I'm a fan of the Karas Kustoms Retrakt. I'm a nurse at a facility that still paper charts, so I write a ton at work. I find it to be a nice middle ground. You can get them on sale for decent prices and the weight on the aluminum version is nice.

I've got a tactile turn as well. I'd say that the details on it are nicer, it is a pricier pen, than the KK, but I find it to be too heavy for long writing sessions.

Congress passed the bill back in the 70s. They'd have to pass another bill to undo it. With corporate lobbying from the auto manufacturers it's very unlikely. They make bank on SUVs and trucks. Hell, the only model Ford sells that isn't a truck or SUV is the Mustang.

A federal judge in texas ruled last year that preventing people under indictment from purchasing firearms was unconstitutional based on the Supreme Court's Bruen decision, just FYI. So I don't think the situation is as cut and dry as it would have been just a couple years ago.

I dunno what state you live in, but the majority of what you stated isn't true in the vast majority of the country.

They also teach now to use the provided additional set of pads to basically wax the chest.

I'm a fan of the Schmidt p9000 fine. It's a g2 size refill. I'm a nurse and my facility still has paper charts for certain day to day things, so I write quite a bit. Definitely recommend a try. They're around $2.50 each.
