I fully understand the importance for gun safety amd fully respect it. I triple check my pistol to make sure its unloaded and no mag whenever I handle it then check it again. Until I fire my pistol the chamber safety flag is in it and I don't keep any mags loaded ever until I get to the range.

With that said.. does anyone have that friend who never has fired a gun but feels the need to preach safety to you and reminds you every chance they get even though you never bring a gun around them? I feel like they try to tell me how to safely use my own gun. I appreciate friendly reminders like someone double checking if I have eyes and ears, or asking if my gun is unloaded before we pack up. I guess it makes me feel like a child or a kid being told to never take candy from a stranger.

/endrant

Edit: I don't tale safety for granted but this friend is overly preaching to me about it. He isn't anti gun either and I pride myself on how safe I am with firearms. I've been in the cub scouts and boy scouts and was taught gun safety at a young age. Point of this edit was hoping to avoid people thinking I'm not safe with firearms and/or don't take safety seriously.

Been there.
I responded by saying thanks, and then pointed out how I have yet to shoot myself accidentally or anyone else for that matter. Guns are always treated as if loaded. All guns are kept secured. Nothing to see here folks. :D

To me it never hurts to be extra cautious. Like the old saying goes, it's not a matter of if you have an ND/AD but when.

I've seen a gun go through three hands and still have the final guy have a ND.

Look on AR15.com. Plenty to be had in the Equipment Exchange. Just be very, very mindful of the rules. They take "welching" seriously. If you say you are going to buy something, you better or you'll be site banned.

Nice Glock, Fordman. I have a G26 that I carry in my car. Shoots ev-er-y-thing that I put through it. I bought it used and after a quick wipe down, loaded at least 4 different types of ammo. We through 200+ rounds. Not a single hiccup. They are ugly as homemade sin and not terribly comfortable to hold, but they always go bang.

Just ordered my lee turret press and a lee 9mm 4set of dies. I've been reading my hornady 9th edition reloading book as well as doing my research on the forums for loads. Got my winchester wsf, cci #500 primers and hornady 124gr bullets and about 450 polished and cleaned cases!

Also got my dpms upper and lower and have my forward assist installed. Next on the list is a lower parts kit and stock :).
