tell me more sir.

It's not like that out here in California. You have to finger print, show ID, sign waivers and etc. There have a lot of people in California going to the range and commit suicide.

That's why I selective on some ranges.

That "Chris Kyle" isn't as rampant as you'd think... there is a strange effort being pushed to put an extra burden on FFL's/Ranges to assess the mental health of buyers/patrons.... it's mostly a feel good tactic.


poor range safety/firearm handling is far deadlier than somebody looking to commit suicide...more people get hurt/killed that way than on purpose

Its a lot better than military issue rifles.
But from what I've read marines are switching from Colt to the HK416

They're all about the same as far as parts/materials... the only REAL difference is the level of precision the parts are manufactured to......and the lack of a and settings on the selector switch.

Only thing I miss is a burst switch, full auto is a waste on a M16/m4 to me.
Now if I could buy a reasonably priced SAW

Hey man, I hear you, you get into the LWRC, LMT, and high end stuff you won't want to go back.

Just copped this beauty!

These ARs are hella complicated. I almost wish i bought an AK instead. Oh well, i'll just buy that next.

Gots to invest in a gun cabinet soon too.

Should I buy an AR first or a handgun as my first firearm purchase? Your opinions

 

[Mr210]

What's the best Glock for conceal carry?

27? 42? 43?

Man the Glock 43 is really light. Single stack 9mm.

I like it. Why not a sub compact like a Glock 19 though?

I bought a pistol first and then an AR afterwards. IMO starting off with a handgun gives you a better base for firearm understanding and marksmanship but others may disagree. Also for personal defense I feel handguns are more versatile... that was my rationale for getting a pistol first

Yeah I feel you on that. I think shooting rifles for sport is becoming more fun for me though

But definitely hand guns for home defense you can get ready faster than a rifle IMO

I've just been obsessing and going back and forth on guns. I'm overwhelmed

That's what I'm asking, I've shot a Glock 22 before, but I want something smaller for conceal carry, is the 19 smaller than the 22. I don't want something too small easy, because I would imagine the gripping with my hands might become an issue
