Here's my thoughts: if it's a home defense pistol, why modify it? You're causing potential failure issues here whereas a factory stock gun (with minor changes like say, night sights) would be more reliable...

Honestly why not get the latest and greatest? Especially for your first handgun.

Gen 4 has new grip texturing, multiple back straps to adapt to different hand sizes, a new recoil system (Recoil spring), and an enlarged / reversible magazine release for left handed shooters.

MetroPCS generally doesn't care what phone you're on if it works with their SIMs. They have their BYO Device plans - I'm on one right now with my Nexus 5 - and that phone wasn't even on their approved devices list. They use T-Mobile's network which has good coverage in the area.

Price?

Dang - needs a .50BMG Black Tip Armor Piercing round to almost penetrate...

Ah ok good. I had a low profile railed gas block before on an AR I (foolishly) sold off. Loved that Midwest Industries front sight.

Is the gas block front sight rail the same height as the upper rail? If it's a low profile gas block, you'll need a low profile gas block front sight: https://www.midwestindustriesinc.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=category.display&category_ID=79

Try robbing a store with it, pointing it at a cop, or driving around making recoil motions........ it'll get treated as if it's a firearm real quick. Blue guns aren't firearms. Do something stupid with it though, you'll get treated as if it is.

Eh - I think I got a 2nd pair for like $35'ish w/ free shipping

I actually like having the electronics - I can boost the volume to max and still hear people over the plugs.

Lambo - let me know if you're available Saturday afternoon. I should be available. Been wanting/needing to get out to shoot anyway.

It wasn't an open recruitment - it was at first to family of members, then to friends/coworkers/etc.

Indoor use they don't block out enough sound. They're only like NRR 19 or somewhat. Outside it's not as bad unless you're shooting some really loud guns. I generally double-up with plugs underneath with my HL Impact Sports.

I guess I probably could get used to it. Not like we have many options here in NJ....

It's more about balance for me. I'd definitely feel the weight and may walk funny if I had all the weight on 1 ankle.

They will open the membership occasionally. They did it last year for a bit.

Real props are more expensive. You can get a cheap spring airsoft gun that looks close enough to the real thing for under $20. 1 - Movie permits are really for the money. 2 - that's the world we live in today. Calling it stupid doesn't change the fact that people are this way now.

That's a beefy hunk of metal on your ankle - close to 2 lbs.... do you wear an ankle weight on the other leg to balance it out?

Gun For Hire in Woodland Park - range with rentals available (can't go solo). Same thing for RTSP in Randolph - another range with Rentals. The range Checko and I are referring to in Bridgewater is a private range for which we both have memberships.

True, but if you used one to commit a crime or make it look like you're gonna commit a crime, you'll be charged just the same as using a real one. Just like with regular toy guns - make one look like a real gun, use it to try to rob a store and get caught, you're gonna be charged for armed robbery.
