I just have a AR15. Don't know why I'm here.

Beware the man with only one rifle. He probably knows how to use it well.

I have way too many firearms.
I’m not sure of my life purpose either

I used to have way too many also.

That was before all the wildfires in California.

Shame. I am gonna miss them.

Maybe that’s why you’re here. To collect new ones

Went with the CZ SP-01 tactical.

Way late to the game on this, but I have some experience with a 75 P-01 Omega.

Smooth operating firearm. Very, very accurate. For some reason there is always one on my nightstand when I check into a hotel.

Has your experience been the same?

Making a list.

Currently evaluating a holiday season build:

FN stripped lower
Daniel Defense SOCOM upper with quad picatinny rails, grips, stock
Geiselle single stage flat trigger and ultra duty LPK
Toolcraft DLC BGC
Aero Precision buffer tube and spring
Warcomp flash hider
Fixed offset tritium iron sights
Optics TBD.

Not about to chase women or gamble at casinos, so, might as well build off quality parts at holiday discount prices.

You can never have too many.

What’s your count? I think I’m at 43

Was at 48. Sold a few to buy a few. Somewhere in the low 40s

 

[Hunter10139]

I've stayed between 5-10 over the years. I knew they were rookie numbers but damn I gotta pump those numbers up.

 

[YankeeVol]

What would y'all recommend for my first "real" gun. Since I'm wanting to go into law enforcement I feel I need to get comfortable with em and I think any man should know how to use a gun. So what do y'all recommend?

Did you end up doing that?

Are we counting the ones at the bottom of the lake?

That’s where all the criminals are getting there’s.

 

[C-south]

Did you end up dong that?

If he did I feel confident I can guess what he got.

 

[Blake25p]

Did you end up doing that?

I did indeed, when I made that post I had just started in the Jail as a C/O, then graduated the academy in 2015 with the same department. Worked for them up until November of 2022 when I started with the Highway Patrol. I’m sure I’ll retire there lol

 

[Blake25p]

You’d probably be surprised (at least for the first couple years of my career) lol.

If not Glock 19 I’d be stumped.

can confirm its smooth. I really like the ergonomics. granted I had prior experience with handguns, and CZ doesn't do anything weird, but I was still amazed with how the ergonomics helped my operation of it.

....maybe if it was even more ergonomic I would be a better shot with it...

Anyone like Dan Wesson 1911s? Picked up this like new ECO and am extremely happy with it. I traded my Sig Spartan 1911 and a Para 1911 for it...think I got the better end of the deal. Should be a great carry gun...I have a Milt Sparks Criterion coming in tomorrow. I'll be done trading and buying for a while now.

Only if it's a Jimenez. Those are the primo lake dwelling guns.

I had a Dan Wesson Valor. It was amazing.

I only got rid of it to get a Nighthawk Custom
