@Give-IQ-Nades I think the most important thing you can do is narrow down what style gun you want.
Striker fire
DA/SA
SAO

This guy does a good job explaining da/sa

Da/sa is my personal favorite to carry, I believe it is the most safe.

Didn't even know that was a thing thanks

Let's say about $140

For a budget

With the current pressures, I'm really job hunting so I can finally obtain a steady source of income.

@Give-IQ-Nades
Yes, Glocks are Striker fire, they use an internal striker instead of an external hammer.
Single action only have external hammers, single action means it only preforms 1 job, that job is releasing the hammer from a cocked position.
A double action single action starts off in double action mode, which means the trigger performs two jobs, it takes the hammer from a rested position & cocks it and releases it in the same motion. Every shot after the first shot will perform in single action mode. Videos will explain it better

To make things harder, I live in So. CAL.

@Fear & Frank In Las Vegas I live in Cali. I can help you

@Fear & Frank In Las Vegas I think Hi points are around 140?

I wouldn't get a hi point

Idk where to go at 140

Pawn shop is probably the best option

Probably got a used shield for less than 200

You're gonna need to up your budget Don

Its gonna be tricky to find anything less than 300, let alone 200

I mean you can get plenty at 200

There's not much out here for 200

Costs a good chunk of change on top of the sticker price to get a gun out the door, too

Safety cert is 25 bucks, background check is another 50, transfer fee can be 100 if you order online

You haven't even bought ammo yet either

What part of Cal

I live in the Bay Area

Ah

This is my bastardized AK103

Bastardized?

It needs real AK furniture

its cali compliant

and still makes me uncomfortable looking at it

@ThatShadyVandal dude holy shit, is it really that expensive in cali? I live in Georgia and background checks are free and transfer are 40$ lol

Wtf is a safety cert

I always had a feeling the AK in and of itself was a bastard rifle

@Odb They make you take some stupid test to get a safety certificate

My AK cost me 700 bucks sticker price. By the time I got it out the door, it was like 863

I'd Carry a USP 45

or FN Tac 45/FNP

Communist California

Bout to be usa if we lose the Senate to more cheating

I ditched my FNX-45 Tac for the 509 Tac
