Guess I was lucky, only been to DMV twice, once to get my drivers license when we first moved and once for my carry permit a month or so later and both time I was in and out in under 15 minutes. Didn't plan a specific time or anything just went when it was convenient.

I have an LCP and LCP-2. I much prefer the LCP-2 for reason stated, but if you go for the original get the Hogue grip for it, otherwise your hand will be sore before you finish the second mag. The 2 grip is just enough bigger in the grip that it doesn't need the Hogue grip unless you want to shoot it a lot. I usually shoot 3 magazines most times out to the range and then move on to more fun to shoot guns. Moped said the magazines are not interchangeable but they are, the only difference is original mags will not allow the LCP-2 to hold back the slide on the final round. Original does not leave the slide back on final round with either style magazine. I interchange mags all the time.

I also use Precision One in my Ruger .380, based on the testing from Ammo Quest.

Kel-Tec PMR30 feeds 30 rounds reliably from reviews I have seen. Was tempted last month at a gun show but resisted.

We get by very nice with an outside over the air antenna, 50+ channels with around 20 unique and worth watching, at least some of the time. We add Netflix minimal (1 TV and Standard Res) and last year got the Hulu 99 cents a month deal that just ran out and haven't decided if I should cancel since my wife like some of the programing. Just recently added a Roku and still exploring that (no monthly fees if you stay away from the premium stuff). I feed the antenna to a 4 tuner box hooked to my main computer and use Plex to record and arrange my shows so we can watch what we want when we want an skip commercials.

Always wanted to try shooting a Garand. The club I used to belong to was a CMP member and had monthly CMP match shoots. Went a couple of times to watch. They actually had 6-8 club owned Garands that you could rent with enough ammo for a match plus a few for practice for $50. It was on my list to do but never got around to it, then we moved. A good friend (retired Marine) that no longer had guns but talked fondly of his Garand he carried post Korea, even would rattle off the serial number. I took him to a couple of gun shows and he always had fun talking to the guys that had Garand for sale. I figured I would challenge him to a match, him an expert shot that hadn't shot a Garand in 50+ years and me never having shot one. Good luck with your find, give us a range report.

I had some magazines from a Ruger SR-22 that were not feeding well after using them with some particularly waxy rounds. I cleaned them with some water based gun solvent/cleaner and stopped using that brand of ammo. When I moved to NY after college Ieft most of my guns with my father including a Hi Standard .22 that was my first handgun (bought while I was in college). I finally retrieved it after I got my carry permit in NY 35 years later. It sat with 2 loaded magazines all that time. Still feed and worked perfect when I started shooting it again and still does now 50 years after I bought it.

I picked up some .380 and .45 in Jonesborough today. They had some aluminum 9mm, lots of .40, more .380 and .45. Didn't ask about .223 or 5.56 I have plenty already. Wanted to pick up some .25 and maybe some .32 for a friend but they were out already. Forgot to ask on .38 or .357 I might have bought some if they had it. They didn't really have any signs but the prices on the shelf had been marked down to 1/2 price. -

Yea as soon as I posted it I thought that didn't look like the right side but wasn't sure. Sorry about that. I'll roll out the big guns to make amends.
