I'm honestly not even sure whether you posted this in agreement or opposition to me, but I burst out laughing at your comment. You win, Sir.

It’s common sense that anyone that currently purchased marijuana is technically breaking the law. It’s common sense that for the people that currently break the law in this regard do not care about the law. It’s common sense that anyone that currently refrains from purchasing marijuana for the sole reason that it is illegal on the Federal level is likely a law abiding citizen. It’s common sense that anyone that would partake in the use of marijuana after Federal legalization would likely remain law abiding in other areas as well. It’s common sense that anyone that currently steals in order to fuel a drug habit cares not about drug laws nor laws on theft. It’s common sense that someone whom refrains from the use of marijuana currently for the sole reason that it is Federally regulated would be unlikely to resort to crime in order to fuel their theoretical future and legal use of the drug if legalized. It’s common sense that I can do this all day.

First, lets just all simply agree to be thankful that nobody got hurt (other than ego). I've thought to myself how I would feel if I had a ND in the house. I would feel so much shame and unease for a long time, in my foreseeing opinion. I hope to never let this happen to myself. Generally speaking, it's the "seasoned" gun owners that I am more afraid of being around when they are handling firearms. I personally humble myself anytime I handle a firearm. Why? I am 100% completely terrified of what firearms can do. Improper use can/will cause immediate death to myself or loved ones. With that in mind, I always exercise extreme concentration and caution when handling them. It's my opinion that complacency can be multitudes more dangerous than inexperience.

I don't know. My guess is that since it seems cold in the photo...the EOTech stopped working. That prompted...him to reverse and it use BUIS?

I have. I have the originals and love them. I don't use them enough to necessarily want noise cancellation...but I may go for the Pro version anyway. I guess $125.00 or so for the newer ones with Wireless Charging Case or $200 for the Pro's and I'm a buyer.

I know...I was just kicking the can down the street a bit for no reason.

At Amazon, Apple AirPods with Wireless Charging Case. $164.99 currently, although it has dipped down $159.99 a few times over the previous week. That's the one product I'm considering for Black Friday. I'm hoping someone will throw in a $25.00 or $50.00 gift card at that price but I may be waiting in vain.

So coming in 3...2...1...LESS DEADLY GUNS

I think we have it covered. Thanks though!

I and another member would like to complete a transaction here via the classifieds. It's for the records I'm selling; a bulky but not very expensive item. It doesn't really make sense for us to ship them. It will be a while before I make it to Knoxville and vice versa. Wondering if a member could coordinate with us for this to get the records from Cleveland to the buyer in Knoxville. Anyone sound up to this? **Must have good feedback**

No. I haven't been back. I will stop by next time I'm in the area, but between rain, catching a cold, etc, it hasn't been at the top of my list. And at this point, I am not sure I care much. Driving, it isn't really noticeable. It's only there if I try to see it.

That's awesome!

I wouldn't say that at all.

Yeah, I think I've realized it's all sorta just unpredictable. The receipt from AGN shows $54 for the cost of the glass to me. The rest is basically installation. I did check on the internet for the Toyota branded OEM, $500+ easily, never found it for less. I have no fancy features...it is just glass. No rain sensors, tinting, etc. I...hoped. I put some Windex on it today and although it did make it cleaner, I think it's certain the defect is in the glass. I spoke with them today and she said to bring it it...their tech will look at it. I'll do that the next time I'm that direction. My thoughts are that they'll downplay it and essentially say the only reason I'm seeing it is because I'm looking for it. I will say I never noticed it on the original glass and it is easily noticeable under certain circumstances now. Of note, I did notice yesterday that when the sun was a a certain angle, you could literally see lines on the dashboard from where the light was being scattered. I'm almost just there. I'll let them look at it as stated above, but I'm not about to spend more money to try again. If they'll try another windshield or offer me some sort of refund...I'll probably just live with it. The difference between <$200.00 and >$700.00 makes quite the compelling case to not worry too much about it.

Well...yeah. For the price difference, I still may have knowingly went this route. It isn’t horrible...just...there.

It's...glass I guess? Looking straight through the driver side glass looks great. At some point between 1 and 2 O'clock there are the odd distortion/wavy lines some have mentioned. It isn't the worst, and if I wasn't looking for it I don't know if I would see it. Am I thrilled? Not exactly. I guess I need to decide whether $160 glass is just subpar or if this is a defect. Theoretically, I may be able to have them swap it. Who knows? Of interesting note is that the receipt shows the glass at being roughly $50.00 and installation and taxes the rest.

Well, I setup an appointment with a company I found via Google. Auto Glass Now Seemingly good reviews. In and out for $161. If the glass looks good and install goes well, I guess I’ll be satisfied.

Well, if you have time and know this guy pretty well, could you simply see if he could quote a front windshield for a 2007 4Runner, OEM and/or OEE? I'd at least like to know what I could maybe shoot for via local shops if I check around.

Well, potential good news. I double checked. Collision and comprehensive are at $1,000 on my Wife's car. Somehow, my 4Runner is at $500 each. In that case, I may very well just file a claim, pay the deductible, and go the OEM route. Unless someone can convince me that $300.00 saved is worth the OEE glass. However, I've read some lame stories regarding the cheaper glass replacements.

Well, that would be nice. In an effort to be economical, I pretty well "gutted" my various insurance coverage in order to get the monthly premium lower. I have saved money for seven years, but it may catch up now. I did just find this tidbit on my online account: Cracked windshields are covered under your Comprehensive coverage, which has a $1,000 deductible. Often, windshields can be repaired at no cost to you, but replacing a windshield is subject to your deductible (which may be more than the cost of replacement).

I awoke today to find that a branch had fallen on my 4Runner and cracked the windshield pretty well. It's beyond repair in my opinion, I'll just have to replace it. My comprehensive deductible is $1,000, I'm assuming that's what it would fall under. I have found that I can go through Safelite and get OEE (Original Equipment Equivalent) for $179.99 installed. That sounds attractive because it is affordable. Through Safelite, OEM is $620.00 more. It's a 2007 with 123k miles on it. I don't exactly want to spend nearly $1,000 to get the windshield replaced, but theoretically the OEM may be a better product? I've never dealt with this before, who's been here and what should I do? I will be contacting Nationwide just to see what they say. I haven't had a claim in the seven years I've been with them.

Eww. I do not approve. Also, it’s 9x19 instead of .45 ACP. It is Also made in Austria, says so on the slide. It’s a hypocrite.

He shouldn't have been rude, but I bet they do get a number of calls from actual felons thinking that they can just call, say "yeah, that wasn't me, can I go buy gun now" and everything will be fine.

Because it made for one awesome scene and later .gif.
