    Aaron at Merchant Firearms said that the wait times are going down. They are already getting stamps for things started in April.

    Why is it every time I walk into a gun store I feel the need to purchase something other than what I walked in there for????
    Picked up a couple more 1911 mags just because.

    I've noticed a few things since moving here.

    1. Most people drive like jackasses and most do not know what a blinker is.
    2. Waze didnt understand a round about today; I apparently needed to go left on Happy Valley and it told me go right and do a U-turn. :rofl:
    3. If you hold a door for someone, they will likely ignore you.
    4. People give no fucks whether in a car or walking on their feet. They expect me to get out of their way and never apologize if they almost run me over.
    5. Southern hospitality does not exist here.

    You moved from... North Carolina was it?

    Moving from Pennsylvania the first thing I noticed was
    HOLY SHIT WHY IS EVERYONE RUNNING LEAF BLOWERS 24/7/365 :rofl:
    I guess it's a regional thing, in PA the leafblowers come out in fall, like october/november and then are 100% dormant the rest of the year. It's considered a dickhead move to run them at all, almost- usually you rake your leaves and bag them b/c blowing leads to so much dust and goes into other people's yards.

    Anyways truth be told, compared to driving in PA, driving in AZ is easy as shit. You local guys bitch about "rush hour" but you have not suffered through the Schuylkill expressway. Imagine if one day someone closed down the 101 to two lanes in either direction and eliminated merging/exit lanes entirely. It's such an irredeemable shitshow it regularly becomes faster to go many miles out of the way on surface streets. I've had a 13 mile commute regularly take upwards of 1.5 hours.:bananadead: Not to mention meandering shitty potholed roads with blind interchanges everywhere.



    Also posting about PA is reminding me, I want a cheese steak sandwich.:drool:
    But I haven't found steak-umms yet!

    Don’t forget, when it’s over 100°, motorcycles and people driving with their windows down, ALWAYS have the right of way

    You failed to mention the SR202 is the Red Mtn on the north side and the Aqua freeway in the south

    The SR51 was originally the Squaw Peak, most residents still call it that, the media and newbies call it Piestewa

    Oh, pedestrians don’t care what the laws say, if they want to walk across the road, they will. Red, green, yellow lights... crosswalk, no crosswalk... car coming right at them at speed.... they don't care.

    Saw that this morning. Girl decided to walk across the road against the light. She wasn't even walking in the crosswalk.:facepalm: One truck stopped to let her cross the other did not. Stupid bitch almost got her ass run over.

    Excellent guide. I've learned most of these by trial and error over the last 3 months I've been here.

    See it ever day.

    I like how they will use a crosswalk, but only when it says don't want and the light is just turning green. They seem to walk slower, relishing in the perceived power they have over people in a car. They just don't realize we are digging our nails into the steering wheel trying to find ever little bit of self control we have left.
