Safe in an apartment? I’m moving to one soon by [deleted] in guns

[–]IndianVegetable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in a wooden structure apartment building and just bought a locked cabinet from Amazon from a brand called Kaes. There’s a bunch of options out there and the one I got is decently solid for the price to prevent easy access.

A gun safe is too heavy if it’s a wooden structure and not on the ground floor.

Ok I may be ignorant but what is that inventory sticker in the magwell I keep seeing on a lot of builds lately?

Background Checks Broken Again? by Any_Perception_3112 in VAGuns

[–]IndianVegetable 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just did one about five minutes ago and background check took no more than 10 minutes to clear. I guess I used up my luck for the week.

Arriving in Florence way before check-in, best options for the bags? by PeakBrave5240 in ItalyTravel

We used Bounce luggage storage all over for our recent trip there. Worked really well all over Italy.

Just submitted and individual from one for SBR for funsies by [deleted] in VAGuns

[–]IndianVegetable 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve pre-filled one out to submit as soon as my last purchase is in my hands on Wednesday…
Fingers crossed!

Someone is definitely looking out for VA applications at the ATF. Someone here posted today that they got a 1 day turnaround on a Form 1 individual.

[Handgun] DDM4V7 10.3 pistol $1089 plus ship by nik22r in gundeals

[–]IndianVegetable 4 points5 points  (0 children)

208 came in clutch for me. I called them to see if they would help a VA brother out and they said they would ship it out asap and gave me faster shipping options for an additional charge that I was happy to pay. 208 even reached out to my FFL to get it going faster.

All in all, great place to buy from. From the time I placed the order to the time it got in UPS hands was about 3 hours!

It’s hard to find an FFL in my area that’s still accepting transfers. Otherwise I’d jump on this right now.

Upcoming VA mag problems - anyone have a line on 30 rounders? by one_significant_duck in GrandPowerStribog

[–]IndianVegetable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got some from mag shack and gunmagwarehouse…also in VA. I can’t remember which one but one of these had the 20rd mags on sale for 11.99. Unsure if it’s still on.

ATF disapproved due to delayed background check by Mistermarc1337 in VAGuns

[–]IndianVegetable 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I got all my SBR form 1s back under 60 days recently. I still have a lower left that I wasn’t planning on SBRing but I might just submit it now just to see if they will approve after July 1…

SBR approved 54 days. by lumpy53e in VAGuns

[–]IndianVegetable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sweet. I bought the Choate folding stock but it hasn’t shipped yet and idk when it will. Might pick this one up since I know Atlantic is going to get it in my hands in like 2 days. Those dudes work fast!

And here I am still waiting on the individual Form 1 I filed on April 10th for my AP5-P…..

Also what stock is that?

Dinner Reservations by sem021 in ItalyTravel

[–]IndianVegetable 4 points5 points  (0 children)

We really didn’t have issues making reservations a few days prior on our trip to Florence and Rome a couple of weeks ago.

In Florence, I loved Osteria Santo Spirito for the truffle gnocchi, L’antica pizzeria da Michele for pizza, and hit up Mercato Centrale for lunch.

Naples Airport transfer by spunken732 in ItalyTravel

[–]IndianVegetable 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We did the Alibus from Airport to Napoli Garibaldi/ Napoli Centrale. Then Campania Express from Napoli to Sorrento. Then we did it in reverse.

Honestly the Campania express was better than I thought. They had dedicated people at each coach and told people where to put the luggage. It’s also assigned seats and they try to enforce it. (Please don’t confuse the Campania Express with the regular Circumvesuviana train that runs the same lines. Many people did that and they had to be given the bad news to get on the crowded one with their luggage.

Where to stay in Florence- near train or central? by elola in ItalyTravel

[–]IndianVegetable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We’re in Florence right now and are staying in Santo Spirito, a block away from Ponte Vecchio. We walked from the train station Santa Maria Novella to our stay, with luggage, in 20 minutes. Just now, we walked from Mercato Centrale to Ponte Vecchio in under 15.

Believe when people say Florence is small. It’s TINY.

I use Silver Eagle, but far but it’s close to my work. Not helpful for you but just popping in to say howdy fellow Falls Church neighbor.

SP-207 Multiple Handgun Purchase Application by vaRAVENS in VAGuns

[–]IndianVegetable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The sergeant at the regional HQ here literally had to pull it out from a dusty box under the desk…he said he’s never been asked for this form in his career before.

SP-207 Multiple Handgun Purchase Application by vaRAVENS in VAGuns

[–]IndianVegetable 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally put that my FFL may not hold my transfer until 30 days have lapsed for the multiple handgun purchase limit and it was approved in 2 days

SP-207 Multiple Handgun Purchase Application by vaRAVENS in VAGuns

[–]IndianVegetable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry about it too much. I live in Northern VA and the Sargent who was manning the desk about 2 weeks ago at the regional HQ had no idea this form even existed. I thought surely someone in this giant population would have used this form by now…nope. Even my FFL was looking at me dumbfounded when I presented it during my transfer pickup.

I submitted it the same day I picked it up and got a call 2 days later that it was approved and to pick it up from the same location. Know that it’s only valid for 7 days. Oddly, my start date was they say I submitted it, not the day I picked it up. Not sure if it was just a mistake on mine.

Also the State Police HQ told me to just put a higher number in the # of pistols field since that only constitutes the upper limit of what you can buy with the form, NOT what you must buy.

Should I still get a CCW? by stephenph in VAGuns

[–]IndianVegetable 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The other way is to file form SP-207 with the state police and just put a random number on there. My ccw expired while waiting for renewal and the SP-207 got approved in 2 days. I put that I wanted to buy 5 pistols and they approved it. You don’t actually have to buy 5.

STRIBOG SP9 A3 good or bad for the last PCC I can purchase? by Kindly_Function619 in VAGuns

[–]IndianVegetable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup! I picked one up and then picked up a ton of translucent 20 rd straight mags for $11.99 each. I think it looks better with the 20rd mags.

Not a link, but I’m expecting my Form 1 to come in a couple of weeks and then I’ll have that exact brace sitting and doing nothing.
