@Nutz Trijicon would be your go-to Gold Standard.

But of course it ain't cheap.

Leupold or Vortex would be after that, and I presume are not so expensive.

I would also recommend adding on a SureFire or Streamlight for visibility too.

Money’s tight enough I can’t do it now but the thing I’m currently licking to buy a light for would be my shotgun. Been leaning towards Olight or stream light. Would like to be able to put whatever is on my shotgun on my pistol.

Thanks for the sights recommendations

Of course you got a figure in the price of a holster when thinking about all this.

Where does Sig rank as far was optics go?

Man I wish this was real.

Ah Axios

@Nutz Understandable. I'm currently paying down debt while trying to save up towards good gear but it definitely takes time. I recommend not skimping on gear but keeping in mind your budget is important.

I forgot to mention, but I would say the top two powerhouses would be Trijicon and Aimpoint. I haven't had an opportunity to use their Acro P-1 but it looks more like a tank, whereas the RMR is slim-fit. I prefer Aimpoint on rifles due to their rigidity and light weight nature such as their Micro - T2.

Past that, I've been hearing good things about Olight but I don't have personal experience with the product. I do, however, with Streamlight and SureFire. Streamlight is half the Lumens, but also half the size and ends with the G19 whereas SureFire X3000U sticks a bit further out if memory serves me right.

If you want a holster I recommend reaching out to CobraKydex on Instagram, or wherever else he has media. I'm rocking his holster right now, but I highly recommend Tier 1 - AXIS slim which is highly customizable, and kydex is molded for a spare mag.

And for Sig I can not say. I haven't used their sights yet. I only have used their P365, and that broke after 300 rounds, lol.

Lol If my stepfather has his way that will be his first handgun

I hope he goes for the XL version.

Better built and not much bigger

We have both tried the P365. Magazines are pain to load to capacity. i now fully understand “the does it take Glock magazines?” meme

The combination of how small the P365 is, and Sig's recent shittiness on QA and QC does not spell for a good time.

I have seen bits and pieces for the XL version, and there is hope for now. I'll have to see about snagging one and putting it through the ringer.

I’m currently looking forward to next tax season. Going to get myself a Springfield Armory Saint AR 15 when the government gives back what it “borrowed” from me

😦

tmw you only get like 1/8th of what your total tax return is. big gay

Right now I'm working on an AR build. Aero lower and BCM upper.

I'm still deciding if I want to make a pistol, or go through the BS process of getting a SBR.

You’re going to have to explain why the 1/8 is the big gay

Because it's not 8/8

I was expressing my annoyance with the fact that the total tax you get snagged, you only receive a small portion of the total on your tax return.

I did a rough estimate, but I want to say I get about 1k back on mine, albeit roughly 8k or so is taken for taxes.

Oh forgive me I thought you were talking about the twist

Nope 😛

Hopefully I snag one of these jobs after these good interviews I had.

Need more moolah.

I could take more hours but I’m enjoying being in a spot in life we’re I can more than get by on 32 a week

I don't blame you.

I could really dig a 3rd day on my weekend.

However there’s always the inner guilt that that’s an unreasonable decision

My department attempted to get 4 - 10 hour days approved but that got shot down because my Managers execution was retarded, and he tried waiting until the last second/slipping it under the radar.

Honestly, it just depends on how bad your job is and if working 40 would drive you absolutely mad.

It probably would not. I’ve worked retail the last five years and apparently have a high tolerance for bullshit

What I absolutely wouldn’t do is work my way up the ranks at my current job. That is not worth the headache

I remember when I was working retail, and I enjoyed working like 2 days, 1 day off, 3 days, 2 days off. That kinda thing. It was nice having a brief break in the middle of all the bullshit. But really it was just monotonous and low pay.

Then it took me 9-months of applying to get my first IT job.
