Rain Gear
00_XJ replied to JacobB89's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
Field & Stream, Columbia, Frogg Toggs, or Under Armour. Can't go wrong with any of those for rain gear. -
this is frustrating

I think you may have figured it out, good choice BTW -
I've read up on almost all of the laws. I just haven't found one that clearly says whether I can carry it or not. The last thing I want is to get into any legal trouble. I have scholarships and whole life ahead of me and I'm not trying to throw it away. Like Hugh said, I've never seen any case in MS where someone shot out of self defense and got charged with murder. Champ, I do drive to work ,but I work downtown you park half a mile away to where you need to get to.

Well, I'm not necessarily looking to get a CCW. I'm more or less wondering, if I can legally carry it knowing that I am in danger and that I have had a gun pulled on me. I'm in college and I obviously can't bring it to school. My boss is cool with me carrying it. So the only real time that I would have it on me would be to and from work.
-
Yes it does, and I have done alot of research on it because I plan to get my CCW when I turn 21 anyways. No, If I'm being robbed and a guy has a gun to my head, the last thing I'm going to do is pull a gun out on him. But if someone robs me, runs, and starts shooting, you better believe I'll return fire. I know there are times when you need to keep your cool and give them what they want, but there are also times where they're not gonna be happy until your dead. I'm not trigger happy by no means, and like I said I don't want to ever take someone's life, but if it comes down to it I want to be prepared.

Basically, I live in a nice middle class town that has no crime whatsoever ,but I work in a rough part of town a few cities west of me. I've had a gun pulled on me twice. Once I walked up on a fight involving about 6 people and I guess I scared the guy with the gun, so he pointed it at me and then ran. The most recent, a guy attempted to rob me ,but I told him I had no cash on me and showed him my wallet so he fled. Both times I nearly shit my pants and have been extremely lucky. Both of them probably could have pulled the trigger and got away with it because no one was around. I know if it happens again I might not be so lucky. So basically after looking at the gun laws for my state I see that a guardian can purchase a pistol for someone over the age of 18 (I'm 19) as a gift. So my dad has agreed to buy me a .40 for graduation (associate's degree). THIS WILL NOT BE A STRAW PURCHASE! But, I haven't found anything that states clearly whether someone between 18-21 can carry or not. Now, I've been shooting guns since I was about 5, I've taken the hunter's education course, and have shot probably 50-75 guns in my life, icluding pistols. So I'm not a beginner and I know what I'm doing. I don't want to ever, ever have to use lethal force on someone ,but that goes out the window when it comes down to my life or theirs. So does anyone know if it's at all possible to carry at 18? I know you have to be 21 to get your CCW, but I heard that there were some exceptions. Like if you feel your life could be in danger (and trust me everytime I walk through that part of town my life is in danger).

Need to vent about customers

Haha IRONY?? Lol, I've heard all the jokes you can think of, but they work with my school hours and all I do is talk about guns all day so it's chill. But everyday you have to deal with that one dickhead that will never be satisfied with anything. -

I work at Dick's sporting goods so I see it everyday. -
Absolutely love mine, will never own another 22 and I've shot atleast 10 different models. I have shot thousands and thousands of rounds through mine and only had a jam once when I was using some cheap federal target rounds I bought on sale at Wally World. It's fun to play around with and the girl doesn't mind shooting it. You can buy 500 rounds for the price of 20 rounds in most rifles so you can shoot all day without breaking the bank. There an unlimited amount of aftermarket parts for it too. Countless amounts of stocks, magazines, sites, bipods, and even full auto kits. You can just about turn it into any damn thing you can dream of.

Buying a new truck
00_XJ replied to HPI_Savage25's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
10k-12k down here, my buddy just bought an 04 with 97 thousand miles, leveling kit and 33" BFG Mud Terrains for 9500 and the guy was a close friend. Prices tend to be higher down here though since everyone drives/needs a truck. -
Wish me luck!

switching college majors
00_XJ replied to darthballsy1's topic in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"
All I can say is I hope you enjoy math and science. Myself, I've been doing Engineering for two and half years, I have a 3.8 but I hate everyday of it. The only classes I have like so far were physics. Really considering switching to criminal justice since I've always wanted to be a US Marshal ,but I just don't see me throwing all that hard ass work away. -
Definately go SAS, the swap will be easier and they're damn near impossible to tear up. You're best bet is to find a wrecked 4x4 and convert it straight over. That way you have a reference and aren't searching for the parts. The easiest way would be to just swap your body with the wrecked parts truck. Given that the only damage was to the body.

"No sharing MUSIC files, programs, Movies. you know about RIAA? if its Illegal and You know it, leave it at the door We don't wanna Hear about it. This is a Serious offense I doubt you'll get a warning." The last the thing we need is to have the site shut down for something like this. Then I'd have nothing to read while at work. Not trying to be a dick, just passing the word along since you must've missed it
