    That is the most ignorant statement I have ever heard lol. And its not a clip its a magazine. :)

    Oh and def get the rifle. Not only is it a amazing machine but it will never lose value like truck mods do.

    Yeah I went to O'malley.

    There were a few bars on 6th that I would go to.

    Outback was just a regular night club, it wasn't a country bar. When I was there there were quite a few country bars around, I never went to one though. Yeah, I spent too much money at TD's LOL.

    BTW that bodybuilding chick you speak of gives great head LOL

    Always get the gun first. I'm doing mod's now that my gun safe is full and I can't fit any more under the bed! Although I still need to pick up a Taurus Judge, and maybe a SOCOM II,and a Kimber Custom Covert, and......:rolleyes:

    I did not read all the posts, I would go with the M1A before we get the Clinton gun ban or the H.R.1022 ban. Then I read on a post they are baning dirty Tacoma's in Tempe AZ. Those MFERS!

    If they pass a new gun ban odds are the M1A will go up in value.

    Well it seems a lot of people are going for the gun, but the poll says truck mods aren't far behind.

    Most likely if I can get ahold of that M1A I would go with it. I've never shot one but I saw a man with one. It was the sh!t. I checked quite a few places and all I see is out of stock. :( not cool. I would be cool if someone comes across one to let me know. I'm willing to give up a pretty penny for one. Brand new of course.

    Thanks for all the replies. I feel more popular now. :)

    That SOCOM II would be awesome.

    I shot a Kimber Custon Covert. I think. The desert digital looking one right? My friend's grandfather has one. It was much awesomer than mine. Made my Spriengfield XD-40 look like a girl. (no offense ladies.)

    But i've got a 20 round mag. :laser: Beats his 7 or whatever. :D

    Get the gun. I doubt PEBO and his gun grabbing buddies will be after any truck mods anytime soon.

    correct me if I'm wrong but I haven't heard good things about putting headers on the tacoma...my exhaust guys didn't recommend it because of the gaskets and probable problems...but then again that's only one person.

    So if you're gonna spend the money on mods, I wouldn't recommend headers...

    Gasket problems are usually inherent with most all headers.

    I'd go gun over mods. Gun or save money is what I would be debating, as I don't hunt or go to the range. I am thinking about getting a 17 HMR for plinking around though...

    Go with the Springfield M1A. Black synthetic stock with national match barrel. I bought one for Christmas for myself. I have been a good boy. The bitch is it will take another $1,300.00 to scope it properly. Mount, rings and Leopold Mark IV
