The Egyptians have been able to turn a few ships around in the canal, last count there are 9 ships that can not be turned around, there were 45 in the slot to enter the canal, some have already started the trip around Africa, some are holding hoping it’s cleared soon. It cost the steamship line 1 million a day in fuel to sail around Africa, not to mention pirates and some of the worst seas to sail through. Cargo containers were already in short supply, this is only going to compound the problem 10 fold.

My wife has the .380 EZ, she is 4’11 with very small hands, it fits her perfect, recoil is not an issue for her with that gun. She also shoots my guns, one that she enjoys is my Colt 1911 in .45 auto, much bigger gun and heavier, she handles the recoil fine and enjoys shooting it, she can rack the slide with some effort, definitely not as easy as her .380 but she can do it. My point is, don’t pass on a gun because you read about recoil, as others have said, heavier guns have less felt recoil. Another gun I have is a Beretta 92x performance it is a 9mm but very heavy almost no recoil with it and I mean almost none, she likes shooting it but the weight is to much for her, after one mag she says, that’s enough, I can’t hold it up anymore.

If you do a little research you will quickly discover what type of rifle will fit your needs, YouTube is a great resource for reviews on many rifles and hand guns. If it’s a lemon of a rifle the reviews will be on there. Many gun ranges will rent firearms, take advantage of it and go shoot the rifle you are looking at buying, you do not need an FID card to rent, you will have to fill out a few forms and present a driver license though, you will also need to go with a second person, you can’t rent a firearm alone. It’s a bit pricey to rent but what other option do you have if a friend doesn’t have the firearm you are looking at. Good luck in your search, and ask many questions.

P2P Brick Township 6 months

A friend of mine had one removed, I have no experience with it, but, dark colors come out easier and faster, light colors, baby blue, yellow, colors like that are stubborn and require multiple treatments, to do a small tat that was all dark green, took 5 treatments, he only said it wasn’t cheap, this was 10 years ago. Sorry, all I can help with.

Best of luck, wish I was in your area to cast a vote. Be careful of that big black hole that swallows up excellent politician’s.

Pfft, not eligible. Didn’t think so.

Found these. Not a cheap mag. https://gunmagwarehouse.com/kimber-1911-9mm-stainless-steel-9-round-magazine.html https://www.midwayusa.com/magazines/br?cid=18830&targetLocation=%2F_%2FN-18830%2B4294901991%2B4294922445%2B4294944052%3FNp%3D2%26Nr%3DAND%28p_visible%3A1%2Ccustomertypeid%3A1%29%26Nrpp%3D24%26Ns%3Dp_metric_sales_velocity%7C1%26Ntpc%3D1%26Ntpr%3D1 Need to check compatibility

Applied in July, picked up my permits in November.

They all rip you off to install a hot water heater, any homeowner with a screwdriver, two pipe wrenches and a cordless drill can install one. And, if it is electric you can drop the two pipe wrenches from your list of tools.

Initial FID, 124 days.... Brick Township

I feel they are trying their best to limit firearms licenses with out having major lawsuits filed against them, while using the whole COVID/swamped/short handed excuse. When I went in for my FID, every office I walked past with a window had people in there doing nothing but chatting, the records dept where I picked up my FID had two women in it BSing without a care in the world. I would fire employees who had a work ethic like this. Try and prove any of this, runs you right into a brick wall.

Took my application 4 months in Brick township, and we are a 2A friendly city. My wife got her FID 3 weeks before I did and we filed on the same day 2 minutes apart, when she went in to pick it up she inquired about me, secretary told my wife to tell me to be patient, they are getting 1200 new applications a month.

Many other brand also, I just happened to settle on the vortex because I was able to handle it in the gun store.

The vortex strike Eagle solves all this, lol. I struggled just like you, sucks when you can’t handle an item in person before purchasing. Strike Eagle, 1x it’s a 2moa red dot, 8x it’s a 2 moa red dot. It does have disadvantages, large and heavier than a red dot, weight may be similar to the eotech though. Picked mine up on sale for $299 during the holidays.

I don’t have a recommendation on those, have no experience with what you have listed, read as many reviews as you can find on a particular shotgun you are looking at, YouTube is a great resource for reviews also, you can search for cleaning videos on YouTube also, you can find some good information on a gun from a cleaning video.

At one time I had a 125 gallon tank in the living room, a 55 gallon in the bed room and a 20 gallon reef going, the bigger the tank the easier it is to maintain. Reef tanks are a whole other ball game, don’t start out with a reef, start with a fish tank. My set up for the 125 cost me 5k, trickle filter, UV steralizer, top of the line protein skimmer, 300lbs of live rock at $8.99-$15.99 a pound, dosing pump, because ya know I wanted that pretty colored calcium to grow on the rock, ph monitors, calcium monitors, oxygen monitors and I am sure I’m forgetting a bunch of other stuff, oh, a $700 pump for circulation. I did a mini reef, with a 20 gallon long display tank, with another 20 gallon long sump underneath had about $500 worth of coral in it, tank was beautiful, small cleaner fish and the rest coral, loved it, wife and I went away for a few days, power went out, tank died, I was sick. Salt tanks are a lot of work, you will tinker with it every day, check this check that, change some water, adjust the protein skimmer, adjust water flow, scrub some algae, clean prefilters, check and adjust salinity. Are they worth it, heck yea, be prepared to put in some serious effort to keep it healthy. Dont over populate the tank, remember fish grow, that cute one inch fish will grow, keep that in mind, don’t over feed, worst thing you can do, if the food falls to the bottom before grabbed by the fish and you do not have any sifters in there to clean the substrate it will rot, which means more maintenance required on your end. The fish, lol... This fish isn’t compatible with that fish, yellow tangs do better when you have 3 or more, one yellow tang is fine, two in one tank will just fight to the death, oh and be prepared to watch that $120 fish you just put in there 3 days ago die, happens. But, they are worth it, very relaxing, the fish come to greet you when you come home, had a snowflake eel I would feed by hand. Check where the fish you are buying come from, some pacific islands use cyanide to stun the fish to make it easier to collect, eventually the succumb to the cyanide and die.

I’m jealous, wish I could say that.

As others have said, if you have an astigmatism a red dot could be an issue, it was for me, the red dot was a blurry star burst that gave me headaches, I solved my issue with one of these. https://vortexoptics.com/vortex-strike-eagle-1-8x24-ar-bdc3.html

Without much experience, I go by what I feel comfortable with, within reach to defend my family. And I’m comfortable with 2 10 round mags.

Thinking they would run also. Lol

Thanks for all the info all.

I’m a bit confused, I have been looking at this .22lr bolt conversion for an AR-15. https://www.primaryarms.com/cmmg-22lr-dedicated-arc-bolt-group-for-ar-15?trk_msg=J1ONT46NA0B4H5KMB5HUQPOTOO&trk_contact=UJDPUVL23EM3F4QI6606879HAS&trk_sid=3L5KOE1M30LQU93F612RG4BS5O&utm_source=listrak&utm_medium=email&utm_term=SLOT_9&utm_campaign=21_02_AD22_InStock most sites say, just drop it into your AR-15 and you are good to go, but then some web sites say, works with any dedicated .22lr barrel, I understand the 5.56/223 is a .22 bullet, but is the barrel a dedicated .22lr barrel if it’s made for a 5.56 cartridge? this may be a dumb question.

I’m a little surprised more newbie gun owners have not chimed in. I would also like to hear what new owners are thinking. Are they as shocked as I am with all the miss information.

Great read. My first red dot was a primary arms Slx md25. The shot goes where the dot is placed, that’s about as scientific of a review I can give you. they are $169 if in stock.
