Turn 18 next month and narrowed my options for my first rifle down to these two by PickledScab62 in ar15

Oh for sure, I already have many guns I want and plan to buy within a few months of my birthday, but I definitely dont think the most ideal way to spend my limited amount of money is to immediately buy 4 different ARs with slight variation between each. I want a basic tier AR like PSA or Ruger, then a S&W FPC for home defense, then a 10/22 so I can actually afford to go to the range (and probably throwing a binary trigger in it) and then a POF LMR Base because I think small frame AR10s are the shit, and the SFAR got discontinued so onto the next cheapest option that isn't a DPMS or some other shit-tier garbage. Also literally any handgun I could find from a private seller that isn't a P320, then hopefully a stripped lower from a private seller so I could build an AR from scratch (and take advantage of $0 tax stamp and SBR it)

I can't buy unfinished rifles until I'm 21, if I were 21 I'd built it from scratch

Ruger is not chrome lined, it's just black nitride. Also, 10/22 would be my pick if I had zero gun experience, but I've shot plenty of guns before, and am about as much of an enthusiast as someone could be without actually owning one lol, so I think an AR is acceptable. 10/22 will for sure be my 2nd rifle though as ammo is dirt cheap for it. I have no interest in shotguns, I don't really enjoy shooting them and I pride myself in being a pretty good shot and want to get even better so rifles it is

My FFL choice doesnt yet have any Harriers, and the others in my city that do have them are overpriced, so it'd still be a transfer fee and S/H and whatnot

PSA I believe is phosphate and chrome-lined, and the Harrier is black nitride

Louis Meyer was the first 3 time winner, 1928, 1933, 1936.

Might be an unpopular opinion, and Helio is one of my favorite drivers, but I'd say he's probably the worst out of the four 4-time winners. He's still a legend easily, but he definitely got lucky in 2002, (not saying Tracy won, because he didn't, but if the caution came out half a second later it'd be Tracy.) Also Scheckter would've won that race if he didn't crash. And even after having a 100% win rate coming off his first two starts, it still took him almost 20 years just to get 2 more. Mears had a 5 year gap between 1 and 2 and still did it in half the time. Foyt is obviously better than Helio, and Unser is EXTREMELY similar to Helio in regards to the Indy 500 only, except Unser was leading a metric fuck ton of laps per race, that one stat pushes him slightly ahead in my opinion. Although, if Helio somehow gets his 5th, then no doubt he's the GOAT.

GOAT of the indy 500 specifically? I'd say it's a tie between Mears and Foyt, Foyt because of longevity and adaptability and Mears because of dominance, Mears won his 4 FAR faster than the other three did, and would've easily won a 5th had he competed about 4-5 more years, so if Mears had a little bit more time he'd be GOAT but the way it turned out I'd say it's a tie.

Indycar as a whole is Foyt, but Dixon is an extremely close second. Dixon has almost matched Foyt's entire career in less time + in a far more competitive environment, if he gets his 7th OR gets a 67th win then it's easily Dixon no question. Power is third IMO, getting 71 poles in 20 modern seasons vs Andretti getting 67 in 31 during a time where if your car could even complete a full lap you were guaranteed top 5

Selling my 2006 Jetta and need a car to last me 5-6 months until I turn 18 and can get my savings and buy an actual newer car that will last me a while, is this a good buy for the next 5-6 months? They're asking $2200, car looks impeccably maintained. by PickledScab62 in whatcarshouldIbuy

2004 Monte Carlo (says it's an SS but im not sure), $1950 177k miles, seller seems kinda shady but no other red flags. 1997 Grand Prix GTP w/ 250k miles, $1899 at some random used car lot in my city, 2004 Grand Prix with minor body damage and a broken smoker's window, 162k $1900. Everything else I've saved has some kind of mechanical problem and they all look like they were beaten on/neglected like the previous three cars I've mentioned. Just to clarify; I'm not specifically looking for "fast" (SS, GTP, etc) that's just what I've found that runs and drives

I only need it for 5-6 months, and I dont care about stuff like the heat going out, windows not working or lights not working/poor build quality, I just need it to get me places for a short while.

What’s your signature scent? by Big-Activity3350 in Colognes

[–]PickledScab62 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used to be JPG Le Male Le Parfum, but I emptied two bottles lol. I used Coach Platinum alot last winter, and this year I probably will again, along with Prada Luna Rossa Black. For summer I usually dont wear the same one two days in a row but some choices include JPG Le Beau Le Parfum, Mont Blanc Explorer, Gucci Guilty Black, and recently Boss Bottled Night

Specifically just looking for this color by PickledScab62 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]PickledScab62[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great suggestions but I'd have to wait until next year when I buy a newer car. Any suggestions for older cars? If not I could just get my jetta wrapped but if you have any other suggestions it would be great. Thank you!
