You guys forgot to capture half of your expensive phone and watch and pretend that you didn't put them in the photograph on purpose.

And lack of lube, condoms, or anything that would denote a life in them.

Plus so far every night stand looks like it was worth less than a full clip of ammo.

LOL... That is my frick'in work phone...😛

Once you get past a certain age lube and condoms are for kids...:\

Also if you need more than one clip you cant shoot for shit...:biggrin: (an extended gun battle is only few feet away)

Truthfully, my nightstand drawer really is that empty. It has one small lamp on the top, two micro USB charging cords for my phone and tablet on the side, and that's about it.

But you're right, if I picked up some lube and condoms, it would definitely add some flavor to the pic. Maybe a box of butt plugs (bonus points if you get that reference)?

I guess "expensive" is relative as well, but you're right, it's not a Casio watch, a flip-phone and a Hi-Point in there.
 
Anyone watch the last Hawaii 5-0? THey made it sound like hollow points were only used by professional hitmen and that because they expand, it makes them completely untraceable to the gun that fired them.

/shakes head

I saw an episode of COPS where a cop said the same thing.

Hollow points are also pretty common with professional homies. That's why I'd suggest everyone pick up a homie slayer, like a USP 45.

I wasn't being terribly serious, it's just one of those...internet things.

A dusty gun in a drawer full of old cough drops and batteries and shit would get ridicule. A carefully-posed photo (mad stacks and a bag of weed yo) would get ridicule. So you try to make it look spur of the moment while capturing 'accidental' hints of how much of a baller you are. I know the game.:colbert:

What kind of watch is that? It looked very 'typical Rolex' to me at first. 'GMT Master' is the super-common one, I think. But those don't have any blue on the face.

edit: I dunno if it would be consistent, but I'd think some JHP rounds would be very hard if not impossible to match to a barrel. At most, they could say how many grooves the barrel had, but I don't think they'd get the twist or anything that would really be a strong link to a certain gun. /speculation

I'd definitely advise not murdering anyone with something with polygonal rifling. That seems like it would make matching to a make/model much easier, given the limited pool of candidates.

It's a Tissot Seastar. Not terribly expensive, definitely not even close to Rolex expensive. I have some G-Shocks as well, some Seikos, but mechanical watches are something that appeal to me.

There was a good article in The Times about it: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/12/22/f...=1&adxnnlx=1387639227-61wGjVfU1bReaiYevb2jGg&

QFT. I pictured this movie before I looked at it. Jamie Foxx also had hit on my now fiancée in the past. Gave her his cell phone number for hers with an autograph. Her sister and mom offered their numbers but just got his autograph.

He actually called her a couple times, but she wasn't buying in.

He's a great player.

You don't just want to pick that stuff up. You want to live it. I see too many dudes with high powered weapons that have absolutely no chance of really needing to use them. They are too focused on fear or a Zombie invasion.

However; lube helps when the chick wants it elsewhere and on marathon sessions 🙂 I am not putting that in my hall closet.
 
I've heard good things about Tissot. Supposed to be a wonderful bargain when it comes to a good mechanical watch...not exactly a lot of that out there. Hell, even the uber-expensive brands usually make a quartz watch or two. I had a quartz Breitling that was my dad's. A silly expense for what it was.

I forgot to contribute my picture:

Ignore the fact that my wall looks like a lizard egg at the moment. Not a nightstand, but a corner shelf. The double-stack mag is for a different gun. First half is JHP, rest of mag is loaded with FMJ. I figure if I end up needing a second gun, maybe they're wearing body armor or something. :shrug:

you fucking serious? I said in my past I didn't need to own a gun. Now I have a CZ-P01 and despite it being so small, I am incredibly accurate with it. We have a Beretta 92. We have brass knuckles. Knifes.

Duct Tape, handcuffs, Fox 5.3.

When I started out, I was able to take some asshat pointing a gun or knife at me out. I am getting older and the young-ones are getting bolder.

That's about the limit I can say on that.

G-shocks are more than good enough for just about everyone. Only deep sea divers need anything else, like the 3000 foot waterproof watches.

G-Shocks can be very expensive too. I bought my ex-wife a few.

Most don't want just a watch. It's about fashion and wearing your money on your wrist.

The problem is, there aren't enough deep sea divers to keep watch companies in business, so the rest of us (who have never deep sea dived once, but who like mechanical dive watches) are left to pick up the slack.

Hondas are more than good enough for just about everyone as well. I know because I've owned 5 of them. But there's still a market for BMWs, Bentleys, and Bugattis, even though few people need the ultimate driving machine, a fridge in their back seat, or a car that goes 250MPH.

1) theres tons out there. Id go to a gun store and look at some. I like my N82 Tactical for my 226

2) Whatever you want. A gun oil and grease for lube. Patches and a rod. A brush. Thats really all you need but you can get things like brushes, a boresnake, and tons of other things. But plenty of people only use patches, cleaning rod, and the bore brushes

3) +p+...if you ask sig they will say dont use it. But using it occasionally you dont really need to change anything. A heavier spring would be about all if you were going to shoot it frequently. Just stick to common brands and you will be fine. Some of the odd name +P+ (names escape me) made 9mm +P+ HOT for submarine gun use.

Can you guys help a noob out here? Is he talking the main recoil spring here? Where is a good place to buy them?
