Why don't you just buy a safe or two instead of parts then buy fully built firearms. I have a 7 and 4 year old and I have many firearms in the house in hand safes and some long guns in the garage in a big stand up safe. I have also let my 7 year old shot my Glock 44 .22LR and he loved it. 8 years old is a good age to start to introduce them to guns and gun safety.
My bubblegumty childhood is between me and the crappy therapist I fired. i-1639 makes it between me, my therapist and the state.
Do you have a CPL or any pistols in the Washington database?
CPL, no mental health check required. Purchasing a handgun or rifle one is. I don't believe I would be denied on the grounds of mental health, but I don't know how far access to records go. I'd rather keep childhood trama private.
What attachment on a 14.5" do you recommend over a 16" barrel? Flash hider, compensator or muzzle break? I'm suspecting one of the first two?
I'm a big fan of the linear compensator. Louder on the business end, quieter on the shooter's end. It helps a bit with muzzle rise too.
Ah. I have a CPL. I don't remember that being a requirement last time I renewed. Guess I'll have to bite the proverbial bullet now anyway. If my name were Ralphie my mom would be making me bite a bar of soap. Oh Fudge...
Simple fh like an A2. I recently shot a 10-12" ish pistol with a linear comp, indoors. It was not unpleasant. I really don't see the need for a recoil reducing brake for .223/5.56.
I'd like one on my AR pistol as the brake makes it completely obnoxious. Then I saw the price and cringed. I think the gun would be almost the same without the brake, minus the recoil reduction. But for Heaven's Sake, it's a 5.56, not a 30-06!
I've got linear comps on most of my AR pistols. It makes a big difference to me. I don't bother with the $100+ ones. I shop around and buy something decent on sale for $60.
A good marriage is based on honesty - if you can fake that, you got it made.I applaud you and your wife having this discussion and making the decision as a team. Hats off to your deliberation skills
I do not applaud the small handful of jerks giving you a hard time about it. A good marriage is built on mutual respect, and you two obviously have that.
I'm sure you guys will handle the delicate conversation with your son just fine. He will no doubt be enamored with the new, exciting device. Perhaps consider getting him something equally exciting a day or two after he learns about the weapon that will be his sharing subject, kind of a distraction.
The brake on mine is also an AAC can adapter. When I looked at the linear comp for that brake, it was expensive. $150 or more. I've decided that I want to take the brake off and just give it a try as is. If I don't like it then, I'll go shopping for something that threads directly onto the barrel.
All of my brakes/comps are threaded. I have one gun with a tri-lug. Never got an adapter for it. When I use the suppressor, I unscrew the tri-lug and screw on the suppressor.
Interesting take. From the beginning it sounded like his wife made the decision and then his wife allowed a change to the initial decision after he presented current events. I find it comical that the term "mutual respect"is applied to a situation where one side is still clearly dominating the situation and the other side needs what amounts to permission to make a decision.I applaud you and your wife having this discussion and making the decision as a team.

Yep... I started doing research and then planning my buys and how to store and where to store so she wouldn't find out... then this YouTube video I watched years ago popped up in the back of my head:I applaud you and your wife having this discussion and making the decision as a team.

Its been a slow introduction to guns, there were "issues" at day care... even calling a stick a gun was strictly verboten. The workers at the daycare always had a way of making you feel like a terrible parent for the smallest infraction and yet let other kids get away with beating my child into the ground. "We didn't see it!" *shows video* "How dare you record another parent's child!" Yeah... good to see childhood trauma runs in the family.
