So, the Govx sale was nothing mind-blowing. The waiting continues...

It's just typical Glock hate. They're all really good, smart, gun loving people....but they lose their total chit when someone dares utter the "G" word.

If anything CZ has made the best poly competitor for Glock from any company. I need to actually shoot one, but if it's anything like my Duty I'm sold.
As much as I hate to say it the MP 2.0 feels tst as well after doing a transfer for a guy a couple weeks ago.

The 'feel' of the gun is entirely subjective and will vary from person to person, and I'm sure what you are used to will be a factor, but I HATED the way the P320 shot. I shot it back to back with a couple Glocks and I forget either an FNS or a VP9, but the Sig was the only one that pointed and shot like ****...the FNS, Glock, VP9, Shield, an M&P I shot, all pointed and shot fine (though the M&P Trigger was aids). The 320 was just plain wrong. But I was used to all those other polymer pistols, if you went in cold without enough experience to matter on the others and shot the 320 first, it might be the opposite.
Specifically the 320 I rented pointed so low I couldn't see the front sight when I presented the pistol, whereas all those others went pretty much on target with the sights lined up one the same as the other, or close enough. Trigger was nothing special either, and the dimensions of the grip vs slide and the balance just felt stupid.

The second thing is actually what you mentioned, the trigger is what people say feels better, that's what second point was.
I submitted the GSSF membership, I should have it within a week and half - 2 weeks, then I'll see what the new thing coming out late august is and purchase accordingly.
If you still couldn't find a blue label dealer around you, GT (I believe they're in Georgia) whom is the company allowing people to pre order what is supposedly gen 5 glock, allow online orders using the GSSF coupon so there's always that option. Their prices for glock gen 4 with night sights and 3 mags is 455.. what a steal.

One of my local dealers started doing blue label, they have some on display now and say they can order. I was kind of surprised, when I called around the first time they said they were working on it...almost expected it to never happen but they came through..
They also have very fair prices for an LGS. Like, Gen4 Glocks tagged at $550 and Gen3 at $500.

I'm not missing anything Ineedas I've never done very many different things. Power rack, bar, plates, bench, room to put the bar overhead, a little floorspace outside the rack, chin-up bar built into rack, and some cheap ($60/pair or less) olympic DB handles good enough for DB rows and the like covers all of the basic movements. All of the variations of squats, deads, bench, press, rows, olympic movements, chins/pull-ups, and all the iso exercises you can do with basic free weights.
But due to space and $ restrictions it's hard to get all of that covered and also have anything for cable/pulley machines, GHR, back extensions, rower/bike/elliptical/treadmill, and other stuff depending on how well equipped the gym you compare to is (fancy stuff like tires, prowler, rope climb, all the other machines etc)
Back work you can pretty simply cover all the deadlifts, BB rows, DB rows, landmine/t-bar rows, bands for pull aparts and face pulls, pull-ups, chin-ups

Don't see how a garage gym is possible without a three-car garage.
Mine is a detached two-car garage. After installiing a work bench, bike racks, and shelves and and cabinets; leaving room for patio furniture and grills for when a hurricane blows through, and parking my wife's car in there, there's no workout space available.
But lettuce beef real tea, I ain't gunna lift in a hot south Florida garage even if I was a rich ******* with a four-car garage.

another outside of the gun related topic, but guys when you were younger and had to figure out/make life choices and wanted to get advice from someone older or more knowledgable, who would you go to?
srs. It's about a career, I'm not sure if I want this but at this point it may be worth it. I've spoken to the pops (it's business related) and he says he refuses to give me the keys for me to make a living while my life is on the line.

The rack is kinda lame, but it (and everything else) was free, so it works for now. I'll eventually put a full cage in there I think. And I'll need to get a rubber mat or flooring for setting stuff down, etc.

[QUOTE=SpeedCheeser post_id=1515886291]I haven't done deadlifts since I injured my back a while ago. But I used to like doing a lot of the Hammer Strength machines or cables on back day. Once I get a pull up bar in there it might not be too bad between pull ups, close chin ups, barbell row, t-bar row, dumbbell row.
Well there's your problem. I've never parked my vehicles in my garage. Would prefer a 3 car at least, but I'm getting by with the 2 car garage.

The rack is kinda lame, but it (and everything else) was free, so it works for now. I'll eventually put a full cage in there I think. And I'll need to get a rubber mat or flooring for setting stuff down, etc.[/QUOTE]
You need a power rack or squat rack so you can squat, and for safety pins for bench. Craigslist and wait, or you can get adequate new for $310 shipped on Amazon.
Tractor Supply Company or equivalent for horse stall matts. 4 foot by 6 foot, 3/4 thick rubber, durable as all ****ing hell, about $40 or so each I think with tax usually, probably want 3-4

Yet PSA has enough of them to do a blast sale

I agree, I eventually want a full rack with safety pins. For the most part I should be able to get by for a little while. GF will usually be around if I need a spot. And the rack goes up to squat heights just fine, but it's unstable at its lowest setting, so it will be interesting to see how well it works up at squat heights. lol.
Thanks for the tip on the horse stall mats too. I'll look into that.

And yeah, it should do for now. I think another set of olympic size 45s and another pair of smaller bar 25s so I can get a pair of dumbbells with some decent weight on them and I should be able to do a pretty significant amount of work in there, and just build on it as I go.

While we are on the topic if you want a usable bar that's inexpensive, new without hunting craiglist or the like, get a Cap OB-86B from Amazon or ship-to-store Walmart. Should be $140 total cost or less
