Think i may end up buying a G19?
Found a fair deal on a G19 Gen 4; comes with XS night sights and blade tech IDPA gun and mag holster setup for 450$. 2 owners, about 1000 down range. I'll be the 3rd owner. Looks like its in good condition though.

Bunker...
I probably wouldn't try to do it on my own.. One screw up and your cinderblock walls are coming down on ya'... Cinderblock walls are ALSO not made to hold much pressure from the sides.... They'll hold insane weight from top to bottom, but smack em with a hammer in the side and they just fall apart to nothing (you should see what happens if a car taps the side of a standard cinderblock or brick wall..) I Suppose it could be done.. You can only do a few courses at a time as the mortar has to dry, otherwise it would collapse under its own weight. I could see, maybe, burying a small shipping container and then putting blocks around it (rather than burying it in concrete and dirt). Between the two, it'd probably be much better off. You would want better-fortified doors, though, which could be done with some welding. As far as pouring concrete roofs and stuff, it is ridiculously difficult and nothing i would suggest you do.. Concrete CAN be pumped but it is fairly expensive. We would generally just cart it in if it is a somewhat small job. If you're building an entire structure, then you can get a pump truck to move it to wherever you want. Never did anything huge, just pavers and such, so it was never an issue for me.

I'm officially out of room in my safe :*(
Lmao some of you people are nuts. I wish i had the space for all of that. I sleep next to my 35-gun safe.... LOL.... well, its at the foot of the bed, between the bed and the wall. HE, i wasn't aware. I was always told keeping a spring compressed with a load is a no-go. Even with my truck. Ya learn something new every day, i guess.

enforcement. Drivers display blue tape on their cars to show support for police | Q13 F
Id have done it a long time ago, but work in Newark. I can assure you they know what the blue line means if they support the BLM movement.

Thats what i do. Right now, the 2 FDE's are loaded, and the two OD's are unloaded and put away... In a few months, i'll reverse that. HE, is there any real proof to that? My assumption was, similar to what happens with a vehicle (or spring mattress), when it is compressed (especially when fully loaded) for long periods of time without resting it will end up staying that way, or lose its springy-ness. With snowmobiles (or any recreational vehicle), the general consensus is to keep em on jacks and off of the tracks/skis when not being used... Prevents sagging and unnecessary wear on suspension components.

S&W rubber band gun, kinda cool.
Yeah, i know, i live in Woodbridge..... haha. We used to airsoft in parks and such, but the park rangers always gave us the OK. We even once filmed a short film in highschool using airsoft guns, in full tactical gear and all. Came out pretty good, but anyhow, the point is that noone got shot.. or arrested... I believe the police stopped us once and they were cool with it. That said, we weren't driving around shooting out of windows and such, it was all done in wooded areas and such.

If i decide to purchase New, i will probably go to Heritage Branchburg just so i don't have to wait.

I keep two mags for my AR Loaded in my safe, same with my HG... Instead of keeping the same two mags always loaded, i can rotate them by having FDE Mags loaded for Month A, Then for month B do the OD mags, etc.

I feel bad bothering them with no intention to purchase either; i would, but Heritage Rahway doesn't have the nicest employees; probably because i'm young at 22, and showed up with my Fiance and baby. Most of the guys seem to have an attitude, besides for the younger guy. They are pretty good at easton, but branchburg is by far my favorite; i blew over 3 grand there when i got my FID. The guy i dealt with is a former PO with a bunch of kids... he was truly fantastic, even when my daughter spit up on their carpet. Didn't judge when i asked some dumb ass questions, and had me confidently leaving with a .45 1911 when i was fairly set on a 9mm like one of the ones i am now contemplating, due to being afraid of starting off with a larger caliber. If i DO spend any $$, it'll be in THAT location. I spent 450$ or so in Easton once, too, on a used firearm that isn't the greatest.... Should have disassembled it in the damn store, but i trusted that they would have done so themselves so as not to sell old dirty crap. Big mistake, and i'll never buy used from them again.

I'm glad i purchased something larger. When it comes down to it, i'll probably just take all of the ammo and cleaning stuff out of the one side of my safe and put rifles there, too. I like having everything nicely organized on shelves, but can always get a small metal cabinet for just the ammo and random odds and ends. I started keeping a full 15/30 hexmag in one of my rifles instead of a 10rd magpul and that completely messed up my organization.. Didn't think about it, but ordered 2 tan and 2 OD green so that i can rotate mags without having to remember the numbers. Numbered all of my mags, too, with a paint sharpie.

S&W rubber band gun, kinda cool.
That is awesome, but, also Illegal in NJ, if i'm not mistaken... As are airsoft and paintball guns, seeing as both fire a projectile using compressed air/gas or spring power. Makes you wonder if, if you piss off a cop, they could throw you in jail for possession of a firearm if you have an airsoft gun? And i dont mean carrying it, i mean just like shooting in your backyard or something.

How do yous guys keep your gutters clean?
Oh crap ricky i didnt know that was a thing. I should get one for my ridgid shop vac, as well... would be perfect for doing my mothers house! My ass aint goin way up to the highest level but at least around the garage it'd work.

Never said they had great prices; I keep mentioning them as they are literally down the street from me, so it tends to be my go-to when i want to look at stuff, haha. I dont intend on buying any more firearms from them, their prices are truly outrageous now that i really did some shopping around for other stuff, but, that way i get to at least hold something before purchasing it sight unseen via Ira or steve or whoever. I'll probably just buy the first thing i find a good deal on, TBH. If i cant, i'll probably just go with the VP9 new as glocks tend to be more common for sale second hand and i can always snag a good deal on one (or one of the other 3) in the next month until my 30 days are over.

Selling handgun to out of state resident. Can I ship?
Be sure to get as much stuff on paper as possible. If it is one day found at a crime scene, your information will still be linked to the Serial # assuming that state doesnt require registration. Personally, i think the only way id sell out of state is FFL to FFL.... Not worth the chance that some asshole will do something stupid. At least with a rifle i sell (or handgun with face to face sales), i have the COE with the guys information and signature on paper to point the LEO in the right direction.

Decent mount/scope combo for M4 carry handle?
That is completely up to you and is a decision you need to make. Everyone has their own ideas as to what they want and what their real use is. Me? Not much experience with Irons. I can hit water bottles at 25 yards no problem with my AR and irons, but haven't really played around with it further out. I'd imagine with practice i could get the hang of it, but i find it much more fun to shoot with a high end optic on my firearms. The Aimpoint unit is pretty cool, and aimpoint themselves are pretty good. It looks a bit odd, but does leave the firearm still practical, and as previously stated since it's a red dot it isn't much of an issue having it that far forward, though i still dont think it would be optimal to me. I would probably personally just spend a bit of money to make it a flat top, or leave it as is (if you inherited it and it holds sentimental value) and save up for an entry level flat top, which isn't all that much money.

Cool i'll look up monmouth. As much as i would rather shoot before buying, 80$+ seems a bit steep. You get 40$ back if you then purchase the firearm at Heritage, but they are far from cheap. I thought i found a G19 for a decent price there and it turned out to be used.... LOL

Think i may end up buying a G19?
So we stopped by heritage guild for about 45 minutes today on the way to my mothers house so that i could hold some stuff and get a feel for what i might like. The four that fit best, i believe, were Glock 19 (Gen4), HK VP9, Sig P320C, and Smith M&P 9. I held the PPQ and while nice, it seemed a bit off. I Couldn't quite get the hang of it, and, if i remember correctly i couldn't really reach the mag release without shifting my grip. Same on the P226/Mk 25, which is unfortunate. Any +'s or -'s to the four mentioned? 3 of the 4 seem to be fairly popular with LE and what not (Not sure about the P320C). I'd LIKE to try and find a good deal on one of the four locally which would save me from making the decision. We shall see.... Might go to easton later this week to test shoot a few.

Trijicon makes some beautiful ACOGS that will mount on a carry handle but as you said, it'll be way up there, both in price and physically. I Would personally replace it, but that's me. I can't stand the carry handle uppers.. Having a removable pic-mounted one isn't bad because you have the option to remove it. I'd leave it as is and keep an eye out on a stripped upper.. I think there was already one for sale on here or the mewe NJ Sales group.

Gun mag warehouse data breach. Warning!
I placed the order on the 1st. On the 9th i got a shipping confirmation and invoice, so i'm assuming i was billed on the 9th, meaning that it was in fact compromised? Not sure if to request a new card.... Its my primary card and would suck to not have for 2+ weeks :/ I better get some free monitoring or a free hex mag or something.. Checko, in my defense, i only bought 5 hex mags and 4 mags for the 15-22... Haha

How do yous guys keep your gutters clean?
Was going to suggest looking into one of those gutter robots but they are discontinued. The pressure washer with a good machine and wand would probably be easiest though they get dirty, fast... or, just buy one of the narrow scoops from home depot for cleaning gutters and do it the old school way. Probably easiest like that, anyways.

Gun mag warehouse data breach. Warning!
Was it ONLY the 6 pack deal or any order in general? I bought some other stuff after the 6pk deal... some 15-22 mags and a few loose hexs.

Good sight for Ruger 10/22 Takedown?
The 10/22 came with a rail. The Docter is on a weird mount as it is piggy packing on the ACOG (Docter sight is the older version of the RMR, before trijicon made their own). It doesnt have a pic mount, so i'd have to see if one exists online. Its like a scope ring that's upside down with a flat plate and wings to protect the sight... haha ill try and upload photos tomorrow if i have time.

I have a cheapo from Dicks i may try first. Has multiple reticles and what not. If thats no good i'll have to look into some sort of mount/adapter for the Docter sight.
