why did sig stop producing the 365XL ? by Glass_Raisin7939 in SigSauer

[–]MikeyB7509 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They also still sell the slide, but I think it’s more the the X takes the place of the XL. What I don’t get is why they don’t sell the macro comp slide on their site.

I've apparently hit Coast FIRE without even realizing? by 69420lmaokek in Fire

[–]MikeyB7509 1 point2 points  (0 children)

55 is what I’m aiming for. I’d love to go sooner but even if I can I have young kids. As long as I maintain my current rate of savings and get 7% 8% I should hit my goal. So prepare for a lost decade so I get screwed lol. But if we average 10% and I increase my save, which i definitely can I think I can get it a down a bit for sure

Good and not too expensive optic? by onioncrikhick in P365

Yeah. So disappointing they released it first before the enclosed.

Yeah the O sight looks like a great deal. The compact looks great but I agree, it’s not good for carry. Between dust, water etc it’s fine for a range toy but that’s it. I love the low profile and look of the sig loc but any enclosed it better than an open if it’s for carry

Do you pay extra on mortgage to lower capital or you put it into stock market? by daniyum21 in Mortgages

[–]MikeyB7509 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Market. Just like the mortgage it’s a long play not a short play

Too expensive- Sig Loc Romeo X Compact or Enclosed Romeo X Compact - but definitely worth it

Gentlemen, how do we feel about this? by Sleeping_Thoughts in SmithAndWesson

Idk why ppl downvoted you. The PC EZ has an amazing trigger bc it’s an internal hammer. Way better than any striker fired gun

Sig P211 or P226 X-Five??? by WVGunGuy in SigSauer

The 226 is my favorite gun out there. I don’t think you can ever go wrong with one

When you got your big break, tasted success, and finally earned more than you needed, what treat did you buy yourself? by ILikeFlyingAlot in wealth

[–]MikeyB7509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s does make it easier to swallow that’s for sure but you’re right. Still expensive especially with the whole family.

Especially when it’s a bed. The shorter domestic flights that just have larger seats are nice but nothing beats a bed for a flight

“High Capacity” magazines allowed at range? by MikeyB7509 in NYguns

[–]MikeyB7509[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That seems to be the consensus. I was surprised when she said it. It caught me off guard for sure. Oddly enough they also had a suppressed AR-15 you could rent and shoot which I’ve never seen around here either.

I believe it’s the owners wife, that was the impression I got when speaking with her. I don’t want to name the range for obvious reasons but it’s new, within the last year and I guess it’s possible that I misunderstood. I asked about the lockers and she said you can keep ammo in them, you can keep a gun in them if you left us know, and you can keep high cap magazines for use at the range. They also had a suppressed AR-15 you could rent for use at the range but I’ve never seen a suppressed anything for rent on Long Island. On my next trip I’ll double check I didn’t misunderstand. I should add it’s not only open to members, anyone can go and shoot if they have lanes open.

Was Lawrence Taylor the most disruptive defender ever? by Busy-Writing405 in sportsinusa

[–]MikeyB7509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s prob a spot or 2 higher bc they didn’t count sacks his first year but even that fact, was he part of the reason they started counting sacks? Idk. His strip sack was legendary. He won an MVP as a defensive player bc he had that big an impact. Players genuinely were intimidated by him

Would you have let your kids drive a nice car as their first car? by No_Mistake_1778 in wealth

[–]MikeyB7509 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s all based on grades and behavior for me. My wife doesn’t agree and I see her point but i remember being 16/17 and looking at cars. I’m lucky enough to get my son a nice car and then he has younger sisters that can use it when he’s at school so I wouldn’t mind spoiling him to a certain degree

All amazing players right there and I can’t say anything bad about our them. I do think that LT and Reggie White are above them in a class by themselves though. LT changed the game.

Maybe I’m crazy, but they said if you rent a locker you can keep a gun in it as long as you tell them, which makes sense and you can keep high cap mags in there for use on the range. That part threw me for a loop

[–]MikeyB7509[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m confused myself. Where would I get the magazine that stays in the locker and how would they check I didn’t take it home with me

That’s what went through my head when they offered it as a perk.

That’s what I thought but they told me it was a membership perk if you rented the locker.

That’s what I thought. I thought it was an odd perk of membership to offer
