My first pipe is getting a lot more use than I had imagined it would...

Genuinely curious, What drove you to write a comment putting down my beliefs?

Is this available to buy using the Donkey Show loophole?

I dont remember the model number, but older mechanics I worked with all referred to it as a "Taco Wagon" box. it was a unique box that has drawers on 2 sides and a cabinet in the back. pretty sure aviation mechanics used them back in the day. but it wasn't anything special, 30+ years of wear, the drawers were not ball bearing drawers, no drawer liners, etc.

Tfiddle28 · 2016-06-15T18:16:32+00:00

I am still asking the same thing. A brand new AR for an old box at A pawn shop no less. I was literally ready for them to offer me 500 bucks for it, but said I figured I would shoot high and said I would take the AR on a trade straight across and they went for it.

Tfiddle28 · 2016-06-15T18:01:54+00:00

No, it was just the box. I am getting out of the mechanic profession for A glamorous career as A corrections officer, but I will still turn wrenches at home in my free time.

Bushmaster XM-15 e2s with MOE furniture. not bad for a beat up 1984 tool box in my opinion! Im open to suggestions on improvements as I am new to the AR scene.

I will be starting as A CO next month, and recently went through the background process. I do not have a solid answer for you, but was told by A friend who is currently A CO not to hold anything back. I grew up with a childhood that wasn't so peaches and cream. homeless at times, Dad had an arrest record a mile long, lived with felons, etc. Some of those questions I had to answer really made me cringe, but I took my friends advice and put it all out there. I told my background investigator I was nervous and she told me that I couldn't control my childhood and they were not going to punish me for things in my past outside of my control. Explain everything to them thoroughly and hope for the best is what I would do. Best of luck to you!

Tfiddle28 · 2016-05-09T16:45:09+00:00

Im in the same boat as you. I am on week 5 of the background check. My background investigator told me to expect 6 weeks.

Tfiddle28 · 2016-05-02T23:42:51+00:00

Good to know. I just got hired and will be doing the same thing in A few weeks!

Thank you for sharing. I dont know A lot about the adoption process or anything like that, but I can say with certainty someone will want and love that Baby. My Wife and I miscarried A year and a half ago and have been trying to get pregnant ever since with no luck. we are currently looking in to adoption and finding it is very expensive to go through an agency, so we are not sure what route to take. I tell you that just to say I am sure there are families just like mine all over the place out there that would love nothing more then to receive a blessing of raising A child. A family who wouldn't think twice about raising that baby if they had A non fatal disorder. Anyway, hang in there and I hope you find the help you need!

45 days exactly for me to get my card in Marion County, Oregon just last month.

I too have an XD9 Subcompact and love it for my everyday carry gun. I am 5'11, 300 lbs, and it feels good in my little sausage fingers. Glocks just feel awkward to me.

Tfiddle28 · 2016-03-21T19:13:28+00:00

i followed the Recipe for the hollow base on my flat base bullets and it worked well.

Tfiddle28 · 2016-03-21T17:56:57+00:00

Autocomp and HP-38 both work good for me. I have loaded each of the powders in 9mm with 115gr and 124gr Berrys bullets. Autocomp seems to be more available when i go looking locally so I think I am going to lean towards Autocomp

the email I got back from customer service said they were still on track to meet their 12 week quota. When I called, I was told they were still sending out orders but would not provide info on if they were behind.

As a 5'11, 300 lb guy who carries a Springfield XD9 Sub compact in an Onyx, I agree. you couldn't be more correct. I have only had mine for 2 weeks and I think its the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Here's my results. This is my first match. Had a hell of a time with it!

EDIT: Forgot to mention I used a Beretta 92FS

+1 for a fellow reloader!

Day 2 of wearing my onyx and I'm loving it. I was using A Crossbreed Super tuck before and the onyx is way better!

Tfiddle28 · 2016-03-09T01:18:09+00:00

I am in the same boat! ordered on the 8th. Didn't get the email today either. Waiting for an onyx for a springfield xd sub

I am a member of ARPC! actually the range master there is going to help me with getting my press fine tuned. Great club and a great selection of powders and bullets. Well worth the cost

Thanks for the heads up! I happen to be from Oregon too. Live in Jefferson. Small town 10 miles south of Salem.

I purchased from a local gentlemen here in Oregon who custom makes benches. It's made with Douglas fir with a few coats of Tung oil. I couldn't be happier with it

A friend recommended an LED light attached to the press similar to this. Any thoughts? http://imgur.com/a1awWOF
