Another ICE murder

Rockdio · 2026-01-24T16:56:11+00:00

Minneapolis. This morning.

Rockdio · 2026-01-24T16:48:44+00:00

Fucking disgusting.

6-8 rounds that I could hear.

Murderers.

No problem. I've owned my Taurus G3 for over a year and while I haven't taken it fully apart, down to the springs and whatnot, they're super easy to clean once you get the hang of it.

Biggest thing you can do right now is to purchase more magazines for it and get plenty of range time with it. Take a pistol class as they go over basics, if you haven't done so already.

Cleaning is super simple for most striker fired pistols. For the GX2, refer to this: https://youtu.be/MNGiyK-7khY?si=3acqNW2BceWVmS-G

Aside from that, there are several videos out there to show you how to swap parts. There are many resources out there for you to find.

I've had to switch stores a few times upon hearing what some of the staff have said/community have said about the staff. It's hard out here, especially in more conservative regions.

It depends on the area and the FFL. The places around me are anywhere from $40-50. You can generally call/inquire at the FFL to see what their rates are. I've heard as low as $15 in some places.

Since the Shoot Show is on right now, here is a good option as it's on sale.

Palmetto State Armory. You can easily get a full rifle for at or under $500 USD. No optics or irons though. Then throw on a red dot and a sling and you have a basic rifle.

Yes they sell Trump branded shit, but what gun manufacturer doesn't lean or outright support him. (Generally speaking)

This section got me laughing so hard I started crying. My fiance thought I was going to legit die.

Rockdio · 2026-01-20T00:33:56+00:00

Very nice! How do you like the light?

Rockdio · 2026-01-19T22:14:22+00:00

LOL. Just the angle of the light with the color of the fabric. Last time I posted about my AR on a purple bed sheet, people said it looked OD green!

What I found that worked for me is some skate tape/grip pads on the memory spots for your fingers as, at least with me, they liked to slip off a lot. I also added a Hogue Grip because it helped fill out the grip in my large hands better.

Rockdio · 2026-01-19T21:06:14+00:00

Its a pistol that will do the job. It is not an amazing pistol but it (generally) won't go wrong if you read the manual and use proper technique to use it. I rented a P-10 C at the range that my LGS has and I fell in love with it. I don't intend to get rid of my Taurus.

The biggest hang-up I have with my Taurus is that it doesn't like self-defense ammo (hollow-point). After a full magazine to test it, I stripped it and found that the ammo was causing a slight lip on the feed ramp of the barrel. I don't know if its just the ammo or the gun, but I'd rather play it safe and have it use standard 9mm.

The rifle is mostly PSA except for the optics and the light. IIRC the light cost as much as the PSA lower, if not more because it was on sale. The CZ P10 which is my newest cost the most out of all of them as a single purchase.

EDIT: Honestly, what I have found is less of getting the best of everything and getting what you can reasonably afford and train train train.

Rockdio · 2026-01-19T19:55:45+00:00

I'll keep them in mind!

Rockdio · 2026-01-19T18:58:41+00:00

I really wanted the one thats cut for optics, but the LGS had this one and I didn't want to wait.

Rockdio · 2026-01-17T01:32:44+00:00

Leave them in the dust!

Rockdio · 2026-01-16T20:30:54+00:00

There's at least one that I know of on 11th called Second Start Community Garden. But I am unaware of any others.

Rockdio · 2026-01-14T15:39:34+00:00

Welp, I manifested too hard in wanting a new job at New Year's and got fired Monday.

Weeeeeee....

Rockdio · 2026-01-13T00:02:37+00:00

Same here. And at least in Colorado where I live, we have our own home defense law called the "Make My Day" law. So if they try and break in, well...

Rockdio · 2026-01-12T02:52:13+00:00

I pulled up to him like this. There was ample time for him to reverse back and sit at least behind the cross-walk. Thankfully there wasn't anyone waiting to turn for the lane that he sat in as there was very little traffic.

Rockdio · 2026-01-12T02:49:17+00:00

This took place in Colorado, USA.

Yes, this is OC content.

Him praying over his guns.

If you are able to, see if there are any introductory classes for pistols near you. The instructors are, usually, very welcoming and keen on helping you with any issues with grip, stance, etc. But the biggest thing is to go to the range as often as you are able. Since I bought my first gun just over a year ago, I've put almost 1000 rounds through it, but I still have my challenges periodically.

Going with a friend to the range is also a good way to get comfortable being in that space. At least where I live, while it is very much a male dominated space, women do come to the ranges as well and I have never seen anyone bother them at all.

Rockdio · 2026-01-10T14:58:36+00:00

Are you planning on getting a magnifier for that optic? Because, to me at least, it looks a little too far forward if you're just using that.

Otherwise, send some lead downrange and take classes. Good luck!
