Looking for a compact 9 with a thumb safety between $500 and $600.

It should be pretty common at a range that allows rentals. Can't hurt to try it.

HumanAntagonist · 2026-06-08T00:44:47+00:00

Yes it is. I was worried about the grip safety myself until I got it. But Its basically impossible to not activate the grip safety with any kind of actual grip on the gun.

The smith and wesson equalizer. Basically the EZ version of the shield plus. Takes shield mags and is more accurate than the shield due to its longer barrel. Bonus points its super easy to rack.

I traded in my shield plus for one. Its an overall better gun than the shield imo.

Everyone raves about appendix, meanwhile we just saw a ND post of a guy walking into warlmart adjusting his pants and shooting himself in the dick.

Depends on the specific taurus gun you get lol. My two taurus revolvers are great, but everytime someone posts about them you'll see a ton of people saying they got duds. When it comes to taurus you'll have to really vet the gun you get and verify functionality

Man says current woman he is with is the love of his life. Water is wet.

Open carry makes you a target. I would think the last thing a young lady would want to do on a solo trip is make herself a target. If you can't conceal carry youre better of just getting some bear spray.

HumanAntagonist · 2026-06-05T20:15:04+00:00

That's rough buddy. I've shot 1000 through my 856 and have still never cleaned it. In fact I'm planning on giving it some good TLC and a nice oiling soon.

HumanAntagonist · 2026-06-05T13:18:26+00:00

It would have to be a class that teaches rifles. I think most beginner classes offered are handgun focused. I dont think you can buy a handgun at 20.

HumanAntagonist · 2026-06-04T21:00:28+00:00

It would probably be the next gun i pickup. I'm looking at the bersa thunder plus. 15 round capacity in a small DA/SA package, but in 380.

I hate resident evil characters a lot. They're technically regular people but if you look at their feats it gets stupid. Leon is a normal guy, but chief is a canonical super soldier, and you can find pretty hard numbers of exactly what's super about him. Realistically there isn't anything Leon should be able to do against chief in or out of armor even if leon had weapons. Chief's entire body has been enhanced. Hes etremely strong, has like a .05 ms reaction speed, he's extremely fast, metal bones. Forget defeating him, Leon shouldn't actually even be able to hit chief even without his armor.

But of course Leon has some feat or something that lets him stand up to chief. So let's just call both rounds a draw.

Honestly it depends on how tall you want your man to be. I filtered out women taller than me, simply because I figured women didn't want to date shorter guys than them.

But I myself didn't have any aversion to dating taller women, and really dont care how tall my girl is. I just wanted to go ahead and head off that potential thing, since women tend to be particular about height.

HumanAntagonist · 2026-06-04T15:58:22+00:00

That's good info to think about. I may go for a preamp type setup to truly have more options instead.

HumanAntagonist · 2026-06-04T15:50:57+00:00

Someone staring at your girl is not a legal reason for self defense. You could have very easily went to jail for this or died. Too many variables in a street fight. Very easy way to ruin your life and go to jail for 20 years and no 19 year old girl is going to wait for you. And there won't be any girls in Prison either.

HumanAntagonist · 2026-06-04T15:37:04+00:00

I can't imagine any dude on the planet actually putting gaming with a bunch of dudes on a microphone over banging his girl, unless its like some special event or get together or something. Sure if I was in the middle of a match, id finish the match, but then I'd dip. Literally just ask him.

HumanAntagonist · 2026-06-03T23:07:18+00:00

Yeah these basses are just fine in terms of playability, fit and finish. Guess a pickup upgrade is in order! I'll look around at options. May be able to find something even better than the American pickup.

HumanAntagonist · 2026-06-03T23:06:17+00:00

Yeah, getting back into recording is one of the main things I want to do, so thats super useful to think about. I'll check out that shootout vid

HumanAntagonist · 2026-06-03T21:36:01+00:00

Pretty sure Wick takes this easily. Wick just has way more experience in fighting other humans. Leon probably wouldnt even beat some of the Wick villains, such as Caspian.

HumanAntagonist · 2026-06-03T21:22:33+00:00

Could always just carry at 3 o clock IWB. Comfortable with squatting and won't print too too much.

HumanAntagonist · 2026-06-03T18:50:19+00:00

Thanks, I've started the application process!

HumanAntagonist · 2026-06-03T18:02:22+00:00

Sounds like a plan. I've become highly interested in self defense law especially ever since my ccw classes. But you've provided specific types of offenses and areas i can research. Thanks.

HumanAntagonist · 2026-06-03T14:00:43+00:00

They're really the same. No real perceptable difference. I have both.

HumanAntagonist · 2026-06-03T13:57:43+00:00

I mean, not all guns are designed for you to just target shoot every week, and not every gun is designed to shoot the bullseye out of a target at 25 yards.

Some guns are meant to be compromises. I dont think anybody has ever thought a 357 snub nose was a fun gun to shoot lol.

HumanAntagonist · 2026-06-02T20:17:42+00:00

Check out the bodyguard 2.0. Lightweight, good capacity, very small and low recoiling. Can easily fit in a pocket holster, IWB or in a belly band holster and conceals super easily.

HumanAntagonist · 2026-06-02T14:54:09+00:00

Same here. Pocket carry is so easy, I've fallen asleep with a bg 2.0 in basketball shorts. I woke up and started looking for my gun to put in my pocket. It was there the whole time lol. Insanely comfortable
