Those of you that voted and commented on " which 45 acp would you choose" I'm the fool that started that one. For those that car/ curious I finally got my permit and license and immediately purchased the FNX 45 in all black. ( only gripe is that is only the 10 rd mag model ) I can't wait to get it out to the range and really fall in love with it.
So now. Keeping my new friend clean.
I have been trying to finds kits, oils, cleaning sprays, brushes, pads, jags, and also range bags.
Hoppes, Birchwood Casey, Ballistol are some of the brands and systems that I have found to be popular. I have also heard of people using Mobil 1 to oil the rails and other parts.
If you could point me towards a good instruction link, video it would be a great great help.
Looking forward to some tips and tricks.
I'll post some pics of my very first handgun up in a little while.
Got a bumper crop of strawberries coming in already. Got some potatoes and garlic coming in nice. Some tomato plants, peppers and beans too. We perpetually have thyme which is less about growing it and more about containing it. Also mint basil and oregano.
All homedepot plants.. Green-beans and Radishes are seed. My fig tree is also sprouting.
Tomatoes, Jersey beefsteak… Peppers, Italian sweet… Zucchini… Eggplant, black beauty… Green-beans… Radishes
Time to resurrect this thread.
Who else is gardening this year? I just finished grounding a dozen tomato plants, a few San Marzano Heirloom and a bunch of Roma. Going to try my hand a canning this year too. Also doing a proper herb garden. Parsley, basil, oregano, rosemary and english thyme.
My wife is going to try growing broccoli, kale (YUK!) and peppers for the first time.
Have you or your friend actually looked at any of the plethora? They are not all black ugly fabric bags with MOLLE straps. Some of the bags are downright stylish. I dunno man, which do you think might look better, a CCW handbag one can live with, or perhaps even like, or the makeup job the mortician's beautician can do because you got smoked while playing Feeley Meeley in a handbag?
Perhaps your lady friend should look at some of the YT videos posted by women about their particular experiences carrying. Also, there are at least two or three web sites (commercial) specifically for female CCW accessories.
