I’ve shot 4 Gen 5’s now for a total of probably about 900-1k rounds through them combined. 3 19’s and a 17. Just not impressive to me. Maybe it’s because I just don’t GAF about Glocks much at all regardless of Gen these days. But back to back with Gen 4’s...the “improvements” are negligible at best to me. Buy what you want, it’s your money. There’s not nearly enough “improvement” for me to want to own a gun that doesn’t have the parts availability that previous gens have had for years and years now. Not when I’ve got enough spare parts laying around to literally build another 2 or 3 Glocks if I had frames for them.

Was actually considering CZ after I buy this glock. Not sure which one besides the shadow 2. Was looking at p10c, p-01, and 0-07

I need to go to more industry meetings but after a few interviews I've been a bit discouraged. Luckily I still have things lined up and this on-site interview I'm preparing for will be a few hours. It seems very promising.
Despite how discouraging job hunting is you should still try. I should do stuff on my own to improve my skills and get certifications. When I'm working though I will definitely be working hard on the job of course. Last job my boss was a straight up dick and it was a toxic culture for me.

Get a Sopmod or BCM stock.
The B5 Bravo is super light weight, because it's a shorter stock overall, isn't shrouded, and doesn't have mechanisms for storage. It ways about 3/4s as much.
I think that the CTR, ACS-L, and the B5 are probably the most common stocks in here.

This is an insane bargain for the best Xbow made (IMO). They sell used for more than this. I just ordered two of these, (for my kids for the future). I will now have 4 of this model 1 camo, 1 snow camo, and these two blacked out models for the kids to match their black rifles when they are old enough
. If anyone is in the market for an awesome crossbow package buy this NOW. They are $860 on amazon, I'm seriously tempted to buy the rest of them and sell them on amazon for a $200 profit each and make an easy $2000. They are fully capable of 100 accuracy.
In before that website is a scam and my credit card is now hacked.....

[QUOTE=DualRectifier post_id=1523802571]Well I couldn't tell at first. There was a huge plume of black smoke, then it started drifting away and a white cloud of smoke started forming. I didn't think to take pics until the smoke was almost dissipated. I was looking for my binoculars but I just got new furniture Friday and can't remember where I packed them. I've never seen any kind of smoke coming out of that building.
Whatever it was, it wasn't normal. That's a highly secure area where the jail, sheriff's office, and courthouse are.

Seriously tempted but that seems too good to be true.
I have zero regrets on buying the other two even though its gonna sting a little in the pocket. They put a smile on my face every time I shoot them. If my kids don't want to Xbow hunt when they get older I can probably still sell them for a break even if not a profit (Excaliburs hold their value because the warranty is so good) That price is almost half of retail and what I paid for my camo one 3 years ago... The scope is $200 alone, I will keep these boxed up until I set them up for the kids. I sold the scope for the white one I bought last month on Craigslist for $150. I use an HHA optimizer and red dot the optimizer lets you dial in for exact yardage out to 100 yards and the factory scope has holdovers to 60 I believe in 5 or 10 yard increments.
I say DO IT! if they are legal to use for deer hunting in your area they are a serious meat getting tool. We don't have rifle season in IL and shotgun/muzzeloader tags are already sold out before I could get one. This is just as good as a shotgun IMO maybe better, certainly more accurate than any slug I've seen at 100 yards.

Anyone with a recommendation on a cheap holster/trigger guard for VP9 with a TLR-1 HL? Doesn't have to be comfortable, conceal, or anything, just dont want it sitting on my nightstand with the trigger exposed.
