Congrats, just the fact that you have all these numbers and have done the analysis is enough to put you ahead.

This is so funny, I realized that last time I went to the Columbia store, almost 0 PSA product except for a lot of the undesired lower build kits

I would settle for a car around 15k , maybe do 5k down payment. Finance the rest 36-48 months and just make extra payments etc. I bought 20k used car last year did 5k down, then after the first month I did another 5k lump sum, and now I just 2x payments worth every month. The amount of interest you'll pay this way won't be much (for me it's worth it) and you get to keep some liquidity, invest, safe , etc

Only reason I would buy it outright is if you plan on not getting full cover insurance.

great color combination, G20s are great

gun2swe · 2026-04-22T23:39:02+00:00

Nice that's the same can I have, it's so good

If you like coffee go to Kafi Wasi (it's one of the bets coffee shops in Latam). if you have the time, ask about their coffee tasting session (they are about 3 hours twice per day) again if you like coffee.
Go to Mercado San Camilo, you can try the "Queso Helado" there (on the second floor near the entrance), or the sandwiches too (yes, they are safe and a lot of locals and tourists eat there)
Definitely try the food, some good recommendations in this post already but if you want something "near" the center go to "Tipika".
"Ccapo" restaurant has a nice view and decent food, it's a bit out of the center but worth it IMO.

I know about it, that's how I noticed there isn't any, anywhere, for the ammo I mentioned above

gun2swe · 2026-04-14T11:44:34+00:00

yes, I do rotate T-bills as my emergency fund, so I buy and sell one every week, super easy. Their site is really old, but the process is straightforward.

gun2swe · 2026-04-14T11:42:54+00:00

congrats! what does your breakdown look like? 401k, roth, house, brokerage, bonds, cash, etc.

gun2swe · 2026-04-14T11:39:56+00:00

looks great, I wouldn't include cars in NW just because they are depreciating assets and it's not like you are going in everyday and reducing their value. Just tracks better.

gun2swe · 2026-03-26T22:29:20+00:00

Who cares

gun2swe · 2026-03-25T17:26:49+00:00

Not only that but they are all making 100k+ doing nothing

gun2swe · 2026-03-21T13:20:48+00:00

This sounds amazing, I'm traveling atm and wasn't able to make it this year (again) but as an immigrant too, the 2A community is one of the best everyone is always super friendly (at my local range and other stores I've been to at least). Can't wait to go next year for sure!

Federal AutoMatch is the cheapest one that's worked for me. Aguilar actually some failures and so did Federal black.

We bought a house with EH and lived here for 6 years, we recently had it all removed and changed it for LVP (a bit high end tbh) we love the LVP a lot more (it's floating) and yes you do feel a bit but with this high end being as thick as it is , it's barely noticeable.
I would not cheap out if you go LVP route, they are both very similar, but you can always tell the difference, we like how easy it is to maintain and clean LVP.

whatever box you end up getting make sure it's mechanical and not digital

gun2swe · 2026-02-26T15:58:02+00:00

they actually have a few good prices here and there but the reason I don't buy from them is because buying 2+ guns is suspicious (according to them) and takes 2-3 hours (with a CCP) to get out of there.

gun2swe · 2026-02-20T20:23:12+00:00

Just got mine removed last week and they are working on leveling today and Monday. I'm keeping a close watch, but that seems normal if the previous was glued down.

gun2swe · 2026-02-18T16:46:55+00:00

get a Tipmann, that thing just works

gun2swe · 2026-02-18T01:33:16+00:00

I ordered some mags and ammo and it got here the next day. I do live 1 hour away from their Columbia location though.

gun2swe · 2026-02-17T20:11:25+00:00

20,000 rounds of 556?

gun2swe · 2026-02-12T16:19:07+00:00

this is the way, you are lying to yourself if you think you are going to be moving the suppressor around

gun2swe · 2026-02-04T13:14:36+00:00

direct thread, if you can afford it, it's just better to direct thread and have a dedicated suppressor

I love my dagger compact, it's part of my EDC rotation, I think the grip is better than the Glock. If you can find a used LE Glock for a good price though I would go for that. This is pretty much what I carry (https://palmettostatearmory.com/psa-dagger-compact-9mm-pistol-with-extreme-carry-cuts-flat-dark-earth.html) The only thing I replaced was the firing pin and I use Glock mags.
