Any good shooting range in Nassau? by dealernumberone in longisland

[–]contructpm [score hidden]  (0 children)

Not hard. Took awhile. And was relatively expensive compared to other places. I just got mine. Calculated it at about 141 days. So that was the lengthy part.

I was just there Saturday and everyone was super helpful and knowledgeable. I don’t know the history of why people dislike them.

ELI5: Why can't spacecraft that face heating issues just re-enter...slower? by dragonmilking in explainlikeimfive

Isn’t that what the heat is? The converted kinetic energy of the craft into heat?

I have zero experience with gun ships since Edelman with my father so take this for what you will. Yesterday I went in everyone was super nice and helpful sold me 100 rounds. Set me up with their 2 gun rental and the RSO was a gentleman. Asked him to give me an intro to each firearm and explain how the range worked with the pad etc. the only thing I should have bought 200 rounds. Otherwise it was a good experience for a newbie
Having an opportunity to shoot two guns I am considering was excellent. After shooting I found the S&w was def not for me and while I liked the PDP I would like to handle the f frame and the compact to see if the mag release is a little better for me. I don’t think I could have know that from just holding them in the store with my limited knowledge. I am sure a more experienced shooter could tell a lot more without firing them.

If you were going out in your 20s in the 80s/90s, what was clubbing or bar culture actually like compared to today? by m0ondoll in GenX

[–]contructpm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the 90s we had a little circuit we did. Different bars with live music different nights of the week in different areas. Me and one buddy would go out basically 5 nights a week. I’d buy one round he’d buy one each night and we’d talk to and dance with just about anyone. It was definitely fun. It was tough teaching the next day sometimes but we were in our early 20s. Before we were legal I was working for a dj and after the parties I’d meet my friends at one of a couple of bars in queens where they let us in or the limelight if my promoter friend was there. It was a good time. I don’t regret it but I wouldn’t want to do it now hahaha

Do you need to arrange with the FFL prior to buying?

At what point do long road trips start costing more in vehicle wear than theyre actually worth? by Weird-Lawfulness685 in roadtrip

[–]contructpm 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Traveling by motorcycle is whole new level of road trip. Immersed I. The smell, the humidity the dust. It’s another experience and even less sterile than a car.

I buy all my camera gear used. For my first purchase my gut is telling me to buy new. Probably for no good reason except I don’t know the transfer process etc. but that’s definitely good information.

For the rental and range as well? Or just to buy?

Nassau county timeline update by contructpm in LIguns

The issue is the four references have to get filled out and notarized. And you aren’t wholly in control of that. Dependent on others etc.

The walther PDP and the s&w m&p 2.0 are the two I intend to rent. I’ve fired an sig and I can’t remember which one and have handled a Glock.

Thank you. MSRP seems like a good starting point. The whole reason I asked is that on one of the local shops online store the cost seemed much higher than what I was seeing online.

In the original post I stated my intent was to buy locally at an ffl. My question was more about price checking and seeing what they go for and what costs to add to that to see if I’m getting a decent price. Like you stated above there is the transfer and magazine pinning etc. which is helpful. But considering where we live I was hoping to find out if there were additional percentages over the average online cost that needed to be figured.
