Let's go!

I don't have any 9mm's anymore. Sorta wish I did, ammo was decently priced.

I bought reloads from Deerfield Pistol for pretty cheap, target use only. So far I've put about 150 rounds through it and cleaned it 3 times lol

I'm down what gun club are you a member of?

I'm not a member of any clubs, I've got all this stuff for my job, and I'm taking a 40hr firearms class so I can be armed at work.

[industrialsized]

where do you work?

[Ryan...]

MPI Security.

Moving to the Patrol Division with squad car/lights/etc.. Being armed is required and comes with a $1 an hour raise over my previous position.

I worked with Securitas for many years.

How does MPI's pay compare?

[Ryan...]

Well, I currently make $10.05/hr as an on-site security guard. On Thursday after I pass my firearms class I'll be in the Patrol Division making $11/hr.

@ Alex, 50 target rounds for $14.80 is pretty damn nice compared to what the guys with 45s pay!

[alexw]

I hear ya. I only have .40 and .45 now.

For now... Until I pick up more, or build a rifle.

[GunMetalGrey]

So. Guess who has a running m50 in his e30

[alexw]

Yay!

Very cool. Someday I'll be doing a swap, but for now I'm happily rocking this M42!

Ahh, well that's not too bad at all.

I was at 11 an hour after 2 years at a site.

Not armed though.

[GunMetalGrey]

[Earl]

Im loving it, great gas mileage. Just ordered a Mark D chip and a few other things. Should be fun!

[Ryan...]

Does Chuck still have that e30 touring?

[Earl]

I do believe so. He was doing an s50 or s52 swap I believe

[GunMetalGrey]

Still has it.

Has an m20

[Ryan...]

So he's NOT looking to sell it

[rampelsauce]

I wanna have a touring so bad. SOOOO bad. Yes.

[Chadley]

Meh. 45 isnt that bad. I reload my ammo though.

Anyway Ryan, if you want/need any help to hit your target better, let me know. I'm two-time state pistol champ in my class, so I does know a bit about shooting handguns You have my #!

[Ryan...]

You fo realz chad?

Well, this is how my qualifications went:

30/31

** keep in mind, I was just aiming to pass, not get super tight groupings etc **

The miss to the left was when I rushed a 7 yard Harries Technique drill (flashlight in left hand, wrapped underneath right hand holding weapon) where we had to fire two rounds, reload, and fire two more rounds in 10 seconds. Turns out 10 seconds is plenty of time

The gut shot was my first 45ft shot standing, and the left arm pit was from the 45ft prone position.

Not too bad, but it could def use some work lol

[Ryan...]

The company I work for is run by fucking idiots. Fact.

They moved me to the patrol division "because we're shorthanded, plus, it'll get you more hours which you've been asking for."

Well, if my next two weeks on the schedule are any indication, my future here will be damn short. I dropped from 36 hours a week (with a 10 minute drive to work), to 31 hours a week + a new 30 minute drive to work.
