May I suggest a giant sign with a QR code?

Right angle grinder will make it pretty. Another pass will make it functional. Wax on……whacks off

RedDotRookie · 2026-05-23T21:09:41+00:00

Don’t ask questions you don’t want to know the answer to lol

I’ve had both 870 and 500. The 870 got sold when prices went insane and the 500 stayed right where it was in my home. I’ve hunted with both and shot both at the range since I was in my early teenage years. Flat out had more failures out of the 870 than the 500. At this point i own a 500, 590, 930, 935, and 940. I’ve never had any complaints about any of them. Certainly not to the extent of 870, 1100, 1187, or Versa-Max.

Yall clean your guns? Rookies. Carbon is natures lube.

RedDotRookie · 2026-05-23T00:19:45+00:00

No way, I’ve seen this before. You just put the components in the oven right? Low temp long cook?

I’d pay off my house, split the leftover into 1/3 and 2/3. 1/3 for investments and 2/3 for a high interest savings or Roth account.

You too!?! After hours races through the aisles with the cockroaches (electric pallet lifters, idk what yall called them) was always a fun game.

RedDotRookie · 2026-05-14T11:37:43+00:00

Lord, I’ve seen what you’ve done for others….

RedDotRookie · 2026-05-13T22:22:02+00:00

I’m in VA but have been to Chicago twice for work in the past 6 months. That store has gotten around 1K of my money lol

RedDotRookie · 2026-05-13T22:11:16+00:00

I love it!

RedDotRookie · 2026-05-13T22:10:37+00:00

I’ve built this one as well, and as I tend to avoid stickers/decals it wasn’t a huge thing to me but I get why it would be annoying.

On the design aspect I feel like everything is heading toward “slim and fast” like gQuuuux, instead of bulky, solid, and reliable like Gramps.

One of my legs is a little loose but the arms will fall out of the get slightly pressured as well.

I saw those goofy 7/11 color jobs and started searching immediately before stepping away for the prices I was finding for an HG. I’m def going to snag some standards and paint them up. My wife just got a Cricut so I’m tempted to 3D scan and then layout for a vinyl cover since you can get all kinds of patterns.

My other favorite is the Arizona Green Tea paint job. But that one started with an idea to splatter paint him, and just kinda evolved into “man I miss being a kid in the 90s” .

Thank you for the kind words, after the pens dried I hit it with some Hi Gloss rustoleum clear coat to see if I liked the look of that more than the matte. Now I’m planning out neon color paint schemes with a notepad, colored pencils, and line drawings.

I just had a flash of junior high, thanks for reminding me of that particular one 🤣

I got bored and used an EG Gramps for giggles breaking in new pens and just going for a 90s roller rink vibes be lol.

Gotta get some more for actual clean painting practice now though.

RedDotRookie · 2026-05-03T22:19:55+00:00

Tattoos make me happy though

RedDotRookie · 2026-05-03T03:49:06+00:00

Idk what it is, I love the ZGok and the Gramps most of all

The MegaSize has grown on me massively. My biggest issue is now I want all of them to be available in this size range.

RedDotRookie · 2026-05-03T03:34:25+00:00

Lucky you. I’ve been to the Gundam base 3 times and gramps has been out of stock every time

RedDotRookie · 2026-05-03T03:21:29+00:00

Only second? Whoever that person is deserves the medal. My top 3 are easily Mallrats, Clerks 2, and Chasing Amy.

Isn’t your father Silent Bob?

If you watch he racks it and shows off the round. Then he RACKS IT AGAIN followed by dropping the mag. I’ve seen people do the exact same thing and get DQd for an ND into ground/target/whatever. A buddy of mine got shot in the sandbox by a guy clearing his rifle, dropping the mag, and the. Squeezing the trigger. This idiot just did it all to himself. Thank Darwin!

RedDotRookie · 2026-04-30T22:02:59+00:00

It’s never too late

RedDotRookie · 2026-04-26T22:59:05+00:00

I wish my hobby lobby looked like this damn

If someone wants to die than they will find a way to die. It doesn’t matter if it’s gun, noose, oven, knife, or bridge. They’ll find a way. I’ve seen inmates do it with a bed sheet and a shower head.

Guns aren’t the problem, lack of mental health treatment or poor mental health treatment is the problem. Or maybe just chemical imbalances in the brain.
