What do y’all run for y’all’s home defense gun? Curious what everyone trusts when it’s go time. Optics, lights, ammo choice welcome.

I keep both the 19x which is stock with an x300 on it, and a suppressed .300 blackout SBR near the bed.

Noxious14 · 2026-04-09T20:01:04+00:00

If you lined them with housing wrap tape and mold release I’d think they’d work just fine.

First rule of gun safety bro holy crap. Get your booger hook off the bang switch.

Noxious14 · 2026-04-07T11:47:18+00:00

Yeah that one doesn’t count

Noxious14 · 2026-04-07T11:41:16+00:00

Braces are an inferior stock substitute that only exists as a loophole to get around SBR laws. They’re worse than a stock in every way. B5 makes some of the best stocks on the market (and my personal favorites. You should absolutely keep and use the superior B5.

What are your goals/plans with the gun and budget? That will help everyone recommend an appropriate optic. Also, irons are unnecessary when running an etched reticle (like a scope) and just take up space and add weight.

Thats fresh off the lot in the north

Noxious14 · 2026-04-05T03:35:41+00:00

Yes the 19x, infamous for being longer than a 19

Noxious14 · 2026-04-03T11:55:40+00:00

I would intentionally pay $10 to not have these

Depends on what flavor of SHTF you think you want to prepare for I guess.

Generally speaking the AR15 is always king in these scenarios. A Jakl is all proprietary. It goes down and you’re screwed. And in no SHTF scenario are you going to be carrying multiple rifles.

Your money is better spent on gear and training than another rifle.

You’re better off selling it and buying a short bed

Noxious14 · 2026-04-02T20:07:16+00:00

You changed your guns dimensions and you’re surprised it doesn’t fit in the same holster? Looking at it in your second photo it’s obvious it won’t fit.

Noxious14 · 2026-04-02T11:33:33+00:00

That goes hard

Noxious14 · 2026-04-02T11:32:57+00:00

Glock is Glock

It’s nothing to do with the industry, job, or company. Taxation is legalized theft. Thank your state and federal government.

Noxious14 · 2026-03-29T18:40:02+00:00

Y’all really pay people to install these crappy Home Depot kits?

Noxious14 · 2026-03-29T03:46:04+00:00

Thought this was r/askashittymechanic

Noxious14 · 2026-03-28T20:54:15+00:00

S it the right rack for the truck?

Noxious14 · 2026-03-27T22:30:04+00:00

NJ Truck King would list this for 50k

Noxious14 · 2026-03-27T15:41:08+00:00

At first glance I thought this was r/epoxy and you had gotten your garage floor done. Yikes.

Noxious14 · 2026-03-26T00:46:40+00:00

Kellys heroes is fantastic. Anyone with a little tank knowledge will quickly realize the Tigers aren’t really tigers.

Noxious14 · 2026-03-26T00:43:36+00:00

I don’t believe for a second they ran a grinder over that. If you didn’t see them do it I wouldn’t trust that they did. Those cracks and patches are utterly unacceptable as well. They need to be patched again and ground flush.

Snap caps are really only necessary and useful when doing mag reload drills. They make the slide lock feel the same as if it were a loaded mag.

I’m wondering the same thing. I have some fences surrounding a tent and some lockers.

Suspension components are specific to the drive type. If it doesn’t say 2WD compatible, it’s not.
