four and a half minutes before she fucking pulls the trigger

*throws things*

2018-01-01 19:03:16 UTC  

Not sure if I should spend a chunk of my enlistment bonus to buy my first gun.

2018-01-01 19:04:03 UTC  

You always have the option of buying after a need for it arises.

2018-01-01 19:04:19 UTC  

lol

2018-01-01 19:04:36 UTC  

I probably won't be too worried living on an air base

2018-01-01 19:12:17 UTC  

I'm thinking of going with the Walther PPQ Crowder was talking about. He got me sold on it.

2018-01-01 19:13:24 UTC  

I was hoping around $500 as I'm pretty sure the enlistment bonus is 2k but I'm fine with the $650 price tag on the PPQ. https://www.galleryofguns.com/genie/default.aspx?item=2796066

2018-01-01 19:13:39 UTC  

looks like there are some different variations but I'm not sure what to look for really

2018-01-01 19:14:55 UTC  

I'm curious why an extra inch of barrel length adds a hundred dollars...

2018-01-01 23:12:25 UTC  

anybody got an infographic / internet resource / youtube video for understanding different caliber bullets?

2018-01-01 23:12:45 UTC  

What kind?

2018-01-01 23:12:50 UTC  

Rifle

2018-01-01 23:12:58 UTC  

Or pistol?

2018-01-01 23:13:22 UTC  

pistol

2018-01-01 23:13:40 UTC  

I would recommend 9mm

2018-01-01 23:13:45 UTC  

Cheap

2018-01-01 23:13:50 UTC  

Consistent

2018-01-01 23:14:06 UTC  

Lightweight

2018-01-01 23:14:17 UTC  

what's the difference to a .40?

2018-01-01 23:14:18 UTC  

Holds kore rounds per mag

2018-01-01 23:14:24 UTC  

PPQ comes in 9mm and .40

2018-01-01 23:14:30 UTC  

.40 is larger

2018-01-01 23:14:40 UTC  

Higher grain bullet

2018-01-01 23:14:49 UTC  

Was cut down from a 10mm

2018-01-01 23:14:51 UTC  

what does grain refer to on a bullet?

2018-01-01 23:15:01 UTC  

The weight of the round

2018-01-01 23:15:27 UTC  

more expensive than a 9mm?

2018-01-01 23:15:33 UTC  

Yes

2018-01-01 23:15:45 UTC  

By about 10 cents per round

2018-01-01 23:17:10 UTC  

I'm thinking I'm gonna go with the 5 inch barrel rather than the 4 inch on the PPQ, an extra $100 for a gun that I'm guessing will feel a little better to shoot

2018-01-01 23:17:17 UTC  

seems reasonable for a starter

2018-01-01 23:17:28 UTC  

Is it for conceal carry?

2018-01-01 23:17:37 UTC  

not sure yet

2018-01-01 23:17:57 UTC  

watched a video and they said the five inch can still be conceal carried

2018-01-01 23:18:19 UTC  

Just depends on what you are comfortable with

2018-01-01 23:18:42 UTC  

Actually now that I think about it I'm definitely going to want conceal carry if I'm out and about off base.

2018-01-01 23:20:17 UTC  

You would be surprised how uncomfortable it is to conceal a larger weapon with out printing the weapon

2018-01-01 23:20:29 UTC  

printing?

2018-01-01 23:21:06 UTC  

The ability to see the weapon against your clothes
