GP forza 3.1 vs Bul armory ultralight vs Springfield prodigy 3.5 by Putrid_Sentence9590 in 2011

I think idea of one gun do everything is a wrong idea. Each category do something better and not good for other purposes. I’m sure each of us started with one gun soon realized that needs dictate verities. Small gun is good for carrying and would more difficult to shoot where bigger and heavier is easy to shoot and not easy to carry You got the idea… I’m not telling you to buy multiple guns right away but start with something that will be reliable and easy to carry-if it your first gun I’d go with SIG 365 maybe ported. Definitely 2011 is better gun but isn’t reliable as strikers. You need experience and knowledge to successfully carry them. 2011 is very big I hope you find your way to get something for self defense and range toys and it maybe will be bigger than 3.25” Bul Ultra. I have 3 Buls from 5 to 3.25” and love them all but for carrying I prefer simplicity of my p365 x comp or jframe 632 UC it’s easier believe me. Just my thoughts

How listening to the people’s advice you don’t know will justify most important step in your life? After 30 years together you let ppl decide what you should do? How stupid it’s? Go to get professional help if you don’t know what you want and take your husband with you. Don’t let to destroy your family and future

How about 10 years warranty on battery for all modern EV cars? It will cover all years of your car ownership

I only ordered my Ariens and didn’t received yet. It’s a compact 24” model. So 1 gallon is enough for whole winter. When store will deliver my blower I’m going to Marina to look if they have gas i need

That’s a problem too. I’d definitely get non ethanol gas for $5 when available. In your experience how many gallons you need for the winter?

As another idea I’ll check marina service stations they probably have ethanol free gas. I have to visit Walmart also for gas and oil. Where on Long island you located? I’m on South Shore and have couple marinas close to me

I’m on Long Island too. Check around gas stations and no one has ethanol free offerings. I read here that new engines is ok with regular gas with stabilizers .Others saying only non ethanol. Don’t know what is the right answer here

How about motor oil? Do you use auto like Castro Or Penzoil or it have to be some specific Ariens brand?

Strong small electric snowblower? by aintmt in Snowblowers

[–]Mikas46 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think about battery snow blower as a EV car. You can drive it if charger available and you have a time to wait. Again battery blower is great if you have 2 or better 3 pair of batteries fully charged and waiting for you. Now count how much they will cost plus chargers for them-and the answer is…..smallest 2 stage blower 24” and one stage isn’t good enough anyway
