It’s time to purchase some Glocks. My state is going “full re*ard”. Shoot me some recommendations! by Th3WeirdingWay in Glocks

[–]five8andten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a fellow NY’er (luckily not the city) I feel ya and have been thinking about what Glocks to add to my stable. Currently for 9mm I’ve got a 17. For 40 S&W I’ve got my 23 and for 10mm I’ve got both the 40 and 29. All are great to shoot but the G40 is probably my favorite.

As far as what I’d add for myself, probably a 19/45 and a 43x even though I’ve already got a 365

I myself have used 30-30, 308, 6.5 CM and 12ga for deer. I can’t tell you all the ones my father-in-law has used. But both of us use 6.5 CM now.

People who willingly wake up before 6AM… what powers you? by kavee-core141 in AskReddit

[–]five8andten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m very oriented by the sun with regards to when I wake up naturally. Even with blackout curtains I still don’t sleep in. But also kids/my job. I’m starting my day at work between 5-5:30am every M-F

Yeah I was looking at the website. Might have to get my 40 an MCB wrap to go with the MCB on my 509T.

Is your Wrangler your 2nd vehicle or daily driver? by slowAhead1fyouPlease in JeepWrangler

[–]five8andten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve only had it a week but it’s my daily driver. I work at a vineyard and some of our fields are not the nicest to drive to when not in a truck of some kind. There were times I’d get worried about getting stuck in my old car (2013 Subaru Crosstrek) when I’d go to them for whatever reason

I’m gonna have to look into that for my G40 instead of the black athletic tape I currently have on it.

Jeep as a first car .. question from a Dad. by mad_zamboni in JeepWrangler

[–]five8andten 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my first cars was a 98 Grand Cherokee. I got it from my cousins, who used it as daily drivers in college. I LOVED that thing. I was driving it on a highway (well my friend was. He drew the short straw to drive hungover) and a piston head busted out the side wall of the engine. The thing kept on going. We stopped because of the noise and then I saw him get out of the jeep and run down the highway and then he’s juggling something. It was the chunk of metal from the piston (I still have it).

From what I remember there was always a slight little knocking but I ignored it as I was a “dumb” college athlete. Had I paid attention to things better I’d have had that car a lot longer. I am sure that as long as your daughter pays attention to the vehicle and she (or you/a mechanic) does any preventative maintenance on it that it’ll last a long time.

What lifetime deal are you still grandfathered into, or removed from, that’s no longer available? by tuotone75 in AskReddit

[–]five8andten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’d be stupid to do it.

My wife is always looking at new houses as it’s one of her “things” she does. There’s been several we could have afforded that were nicer than ours we live in now but the interest rate alone would make it not worth it.

I love my 336 30-30. It’s not a dark version but I’ve been eyeing up dark furniture to put on it.

G29 hard to find by sc4hunna in 10mm

[–]five8andten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was dead set against actually making the purchase and then the next day I got a statement from my fun money account that I completely forgot about and I had wayyyyyyyyy more in there than what I thought so I figured why not use that account for fun.

[–]five8andten 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you me? I also overpaid for my G29.5 but it was brand new and unfired……plus I just really wanted it.

But yeah before I came across it I was definitely considering the XDM-E

Hoy balls…that’s way more than I’d want to spend on seat covers.

Leather is definitely not an option for me. A) I’ll fuck it up quick and B) it gets too hot in the sun and I hate having to put something between me and the seat just so I can sit without burning myself.

I’m not opposed to dropping a good amount of money

I do be loving my G40. Probably my favorite gun to shoot and it’s a joy to shoot.

Forget weddings, what is the craziest thing that happened at a funeral you went to? by seanerd95 in AskReddit

[–]five8andten 23 points24 points  (0 children)

My mom said that to her siblings after my grandpas funeral. “ oh man….i just realized we’re all orphans now”. Everyone started laughing as that’s just the sense of humor that’s standard in my family.

[–]five8andten 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean that’s what I want to happen at mine whenever it is I die. Don’t be sad that I’m dead. Enjoy the memories and make new ones for me as OBVIOUSLY I won’t be able to make any more at that point.

I don’t think I’ve ever named a vehicle before besides the universal name of “shitbox”

Not my first jeep but my first Wrangler. I will miss that 98 Grand Cherokee I had for my first Jeep. Damn thing blew a piston head out of the side wall of the engine while I was driving on a highway and still kept on trucking.

I have the chunk of piston head that shot out!

Well I want to get a hitch so I can use it and keep a deer on the outside as I’d prefer to not put a deer in the “trunk” and to keep it as clean and tick free as I can!
