  1. This morning at approximately 0300, a group of criminals hit my neighborhood in Gilbert, broke into my vehicle and 15 others in my neighborhood and stole mainly firearms. they stole my .38 ruger LCR with a front night sight and sticky holster if anyone sees it. Yes i know i shouldnt keep a gun in my vehicle overnight, i normally dont. 
     

    Gilbert PD said this is happening all over the east valley recently and they are targeting trucks and suvs of anyone who “looks” like they might be a gun owner. They didnt even take cash in the vehicle, only the gun. They switch neighborhoods every few weeks so be aware  

    A good reminder to keep your firearms inside at night. 
     

     


  2. I had a similar problem and brought it to the gunsmith at rio salado gun range (Accuracy Speaks was the name but the gunsmith that worked on it has since passed away). He ended up drilling an extra gas port for me and said early model 1100’s had a problem cycling because the gas port was drilled too small. Whatever the reason was, it has worked perfectly fine since drilling the second gas port.

    Yeah you are right, he's probably the only one with 8k plus rounds sitting around..  Not calling anyone a dick or complaining, just pointing out what starts and contributes to a lack of stuff on the shelves and us searching. 

    Why are you searching? Did you not buy enough when there was thousands of rounds on the shelves the last 4 years? Always keep at least a few thousand on hand of 22 lr and 223/5.56. Cause this shyt happens all the time. Then you dont have to worry when its gone.

  4. Definitely NOT Colorado. That place is becoming a cesspool where they are giving up their rights rapidly. Missouri or Tennessee are the 2 i would pick based on where i have lived and visited, with Missouri getting the edge. Arizona sucks, cant wait to leave one day. My goal is to be able to make enough money here, and be gone by the time it becomes the next California, which it slowly is. Missouri has the nicest people i have lived with, hunting is plentiful, and you can buy a nice farm on 100 acres or more for less than a cookie cutter house in AZ. Has great fishing and still plenty of public land in Missouri as well. Doesnt get terribly cold, still gets 4 seasons though.

  5. A little off topic, and not meant as an attack on you, but, it seems you are relatively new to the gun community and hunting world. And because of this, you are probably happy to share what you’ve learned along the way. That being said, Bringing up what you did publicly in someone’s for sale ad doesnt do anything to help, and labels you as “that guy”. Dont be that guy ...  A little discretion goes a long way.
