Poll Who got the strap?... Official Gun Owners Thread

[konceptjones]

Good point, I recently got the itch again and started to od on collecting, it's so bad I'm researching crossbows just because I don't own one

I've been looking at bows at the sporting goods shops around town. My youngest daughter is really interested in archery so I said I'd look into it. I haven't shot a bow and arrow in decades so it might be fun.

I got my eyes on something like this and I've been looking into understanding maintenance, quivers, rail wax, string oil and bolts. Figured i could shoot it in the backyard and rap to my niggas and be like I just spent $400 bucks on this just to be like nigga you ain't up on this.... lol

rofl, I got a crossbow on my future list too, my sister got a pretty nice one I need one too, I eventually will buy one once my future gun builds are complete.

Whichever one I grab, but by and large it's either my Taurus G3 or the KelTec PMR30, mainly 'cause I don't have a holster for my S&W M&P Compact .22 or my Mossberg MC2c.

Gotcha, my go to is my ruger sr9c (because I can shoot the head off of an ant at 40yds with it), I recently grabbed a keltec p15 and it's light af but doesn't shoot flat but it makes me forget I'm carrying. I think I might test open carrying my ARP but I'm positive it's gonna cause a situation.

I'm like that with my PMR30, stupid accurate. I was recently thinking of copping another Keltec pistol (prolly the P17 'cause it's cheap), but I really want a 10mm joint.

Open carrying an AR pistol like that would definitely cause a scene. Cops are gonna get called, you gotta 'splain yourself and argue with them on whether or not it's a smart thing to do.

Any recommendations or favorite revolvers?

My general rule of thumb keep 1000 rds + for each caliper I own except 5.7 since the prices were high and availability was short when it became more common. Gives me a good amount of range ammo or if SHTF and prevents overpaying for ammo when jackasses wanna skyrocket their prices.

Piggybacking off of that… just because you can… doesn’t mean you should. Be smarter then that.

Michigan is an open carry state, technically it always has been since becoming a state. However the culture here isn't used to it because it wasn't a thing until recently. There are groups out here that do open carry walks to bring awareness to the fact that MI is an open carry state and to also normalize it with the people. There are community watch groups like New Era Detroit that patrol the streets on foot open carrying and folks tend to be ok with it but will claim to be "uneasy" or "afraid" when it's just a random person with the biscuit on their hip.

This is one of the activist groups:

And a few guys that just 3d print their own for wayyyy cheaper personally I wanna pick up a few down the road and toss in a few range toys just make sure it’s legal for sale and w/e state you’re in.

The only thing about having something that can go full auto is you can't go to indoor range as most of them don't allow it unless it's one of their guns and ammo. You go to a outside one and you'll have people that will inquire and ask questions and you not sure who you talking to.

Yep but I also don’t do indoor ranges and most of my “range” toys aren’t for indoor ranges. I’m not one of those dickheads that shoot unsuppressed SBR at indoor ranges. Same idea goes for FRS don’t be “that guy” go to an outdoor range.
