I'm just a novice...I went the standard route and couldn't be happier....long wouldn't have helped like I was thinking.I only care about home defense and a little fun shooting and mine is all I could ever ask.Standard g17's are pretty long compared to what alot of have anyways.
Can you buy the Uplula at the sporting goods store or gotta order it?.....They are not high dollar it didnt look like so i'd pay a buck or 5 more just to buy local.
Do they help and if so which is easiest....speed is unimportant. I have a very weak right hand(arhritis) and can only get around 10 or 12 in it by myself.Will that make it easier or just faster?
I can hit a coke can every couple of trys from 40 feet(maybe 50) with time to aim.That's good with me but whats considered proficient? I know I wont be a heavy duty marksman but progress was easy cause I'm new but now it stays about the same.
Maybe so,its possible.I'm 50 though so if things will just hang together maybe 20 more years I wont have to worry about it.I will try to find an enclave with AK's though,,,,they aint the best at anything but they are pretty good at everything.
I just don't have much interest in shooting at the gubmint at this time,I don't think it would work out that well anyway.I get what you're saying though,you just never know.If I do have to shoot at them for some reason a bolt action Springfield .06 is the best I could do.
For me it would take more than a single trade to make a difference...If I decided I wanted many different guns I'd go the dealer route for convenience.I'm not a collector or trading kinda guy though.I've had the same three long guns for decades,they do everything I need them to do.The G17 I just...
Congrats to both of yall! 70 years is a lot of life experience.That's neither good or bad because I'm 50 and I dont think I learned many useful things till I was 40 ish......lol
Thanks for the good words,I know I was and still am happy with my transaction.The folks teaching me about pistols all said it was fair.Now if I can just find cheap bullets,takes me several to hit anything but thats just me learning.The 17 is perfect,,,,like new perfect.
I really appreciate the defense but I really don't need any because I didn't do anything wrong or break one single law.I'm not afraid of the 4473 but if its basically the same difference I'd just as soon opt out,just because I can and not have to say I wish I hadn't someday which hopefully will...
I had no idea I could entertain this many folks for this long.I'm going back up to the pecan orchard and shoot at some more cans.Looks like yall have plenty to do.:pop2:
Lots of amateur detectives in this thread,,,,,,,,,,,,,It might hurt my feelings if I could ever quit laughing.I will check on it in the morning to see how the investigation is going.Should be a gut buster..lol
Was this your first exaggeration you ever read on the innerwebs or sumpin? Take a chill pill...I never said I was afraid to go to the store,I said I'd avoid it if possible.
