    Do they make a toddler onesie? That's why I'm picking up the FNX. I have no prob carrying condition 1 or striker fired when it's just me, but I was thinking that an external safety and heavy DA pull would be safer when camping in the trailer and its on the nightstand. At least more so than the G23 or XD.

    And when i told the old lady that's why I was getting it she said ok that's a good idea. :D

    Here is where in lays the great debate! I've carried Glock for 17+ years and now the M&P line, the back up is 1911. I'm fine with either of safety mechanisms in place on either of these systems. It all comes down to what you're comfortable with and what ultimately is second nature to you with out hesitation. Anything that is going to hang you up when deploying to application is going to get you fucked up or worse.

    The "We Have T-Shirts" remark is the club in which we believe 'The Operator Is The Safety' and as far as the onesie I'm sure the internet will have just what you're looking for.

    Again go with what works for you and is second nature for you . . .

    There's a neighbor a block away that had his red nsx parked in his driveway for well over a year like it was nothing. Come to find out it was parked out there because his lambo was in the garage. Funny thing is the neighborhood isn't some super rich, the average house range is 200k. He randomly passed away 6 months ago from a heart attack. A few days later his brothers came and rolled the nsx into the street so they could take the lambo. It eventually got rolled into the garage like a month later. Which is where it sits. My father in law new him from car meets and such, his brother chatted with him one day, and of course asked about the nsx I think they said they wanted 20k for it. But still crazy just knowing its sitting there like its garbage for the last few years now.

    Personally, I am a full hour each way, and after this job, I wouldn't get another job with an hour commute if I have another option.

    10hrs in the car per week gets old quick, especially if you already work more than a 9-5.

    Congrats. I've never tried an FN pistol.

    The SCAR17 is pretty nice though :)

    I drive from east Gilbert to the 202 and Van Buren daily. It can take up to an hour and a half. It sucks, but the money I make is worth it

    I had a commute from my apartment to the plaza across the street for 3 years (yes I still drove ) took my longer to start my car and get past all the speed bumps to exit the complex then if I had just walked. Now I'm doing 25miles each way, but at least I'm on the 101 at 3a and going home at 12p so barely anyone else driving at 3a and at 12 it's not bad so it works.
