Cali gun owners, prepare to take it up the anus again by zdaytonaroadsterin guns

[–]mitchellhislop 0 points1 point ago

Minnesota, with our awesome tech scene and really decent gun laws, says "Hello."

Friday Buyday VI: The Bride of Friday Buyday by shmoomentalityin guns

[–]mitchellhislop 1 point2 points ago

Picked up an M&P22 for a cheap pistol to shoot. (If you were on that thread, thanks much!)

It joins my Glock 19 and Mossberg 500 from eariler this month - I just added up my purchases this month at the LGS, and was pretty surprised.

Ended up going with the M&P22. Feels great, shot great, and it's similar to my main gun.

Gunnitors with kids, where do you keep your bed side firearms? by jcemittein guns

[–]mitchellhislop 1 point2 points ago

Nearly everyone who carries or train people to carry say to always carry loaded - you won't have time to rack the slide. Not having one in the pipe is the exception, not the rule.

[–]mitchellhislop 2 points3 points ago

... That's not rule #2.

Rule #2 of Cooper is: Never let the muzzle cover anything you don't wish to destroy.

Rule #2 from the NRA is: Always keep your finger off the trigger.

Most of the time, Cooper's rules are the main rules of firearm safety.

no matter what I do today my ccw is printing by Jodahin CCW

MN here. Ours is just a permit to carry - nothing says it has to be concealed. You can carry it on your person, however you choose to.

Yeah, but I do not want to wait, and no where around here seems to have them. I plan to get one when I can, either for this or for the future 1911 I have my eyes on.

Plus, the GF likes to shoot as well, so having more than one gun is beneficial.

Could you at some point do a post about...well, you?

You have some great stories, great knowledge, and I am thinking Gunnit would love even an "Ask FC anything" thread. I know I would.

I also know of a few people on /r/twincitiessocial who are shooters. We just need some empty land...

That Fleet Farm was finished about 3 months after I left the parents house off Lake and Lex for college - twas a sad realization. I'll have to check them out. I got the Glock from Bill's North just down the road from there.

Never heard of DKMags - going to have to check that out as well.

Friday Buyday V: Revenge of Friday Buyday by shmoomentalityin guns

[–]mitchellhislop 1 point2 points ago

Missed last week: I picked up a Mossberg 500 for trap/skeet/shooting things with and a Glock 19 for CCW/range fun.

Currently looking into .22 pistols, should hopefully pick one up tomorrow.

[–]mitchellhislop[S] 0 points1 point ago

Good to hear - I am hoping something local has it in stock, since I had to wait 3 weeks for the permit to purchase for the Glock, and I am not a patient man.

Like it so far?

[–]mitchellhislop[S] 1 point2 points ago

The SR or one of the MK/ 22/45 types?

Right now, I am leaning SR22 if I can find it (manual of arms is closer to the Glock), but the MK I have played with was also a shit load of fun.

[–]mitchellhislop[S] 0 points1 point ago

For .22 or in general?

I know that my LGS "chain" (Bills Gun Shop) was down to 1 XDm9c when I was looking into those. However, it seemed like they still had a decent stock on hand.

Thanks! The M&P is tempting - shot my buddies M&P9 during a range trip, really liked the feel. I am leaning more towards a .22 of a full line (M&P, SR22) over a "target" type (22/45), since its closer to the Glock.

LPT: always carry a lighter by avelousin LifeProTips

[–]mitchellhislop 3 points4 points ago

This is a really common misconception. A knife is a horrible weapon, for offense or defense. In the US, there are very few places that a multitool is OK but a knife is not.

If someone wants a weapon, they get their CCW/CHL/PTC and carry a pistol.

My new light arrived! by lady_jayein flashlight

[–]mitchellhislop 1 point2 points ago

Just got one of these a few weeks ago. Amazing light for the price, and I have yet to wish I had a beefier one.

Congrats!

Wait - is that why there was no "I just want to post my new purchases" thread last week? Or did I just miss it?

I wasn't going to post my new G19 and Mossy 500, but usually people get awesome things, and I like drooling over them.

Best gift I have ever received. After taking me to lunch, a close family friend said to me "I'm proud of the man you have become (I'm 19), and it is every man's duty to protect his loved ones." He then proceeds to hand me these. by Badmamajama357in guns

[–]mitchellhislop 0 points1 point ago

Awesome, awesome gun. My girlfriend's dad is loaning her one, and it is just a sweet wheelgun.

Is that the holster where the retention strap (lower left of it in your pic) goes around the back (where the spur would be)? So that the trigger guard is coming out of that hole to the right of it? If so, I would invest in a better one - you really want that trigger 100% covered.

Yeah. I knew I liked him as an actor (rather than just his hangover role) after Limitless.
