I was at Caliber yesterday to take a couple newbie shooters. I asked the person at the desk what happened and didn’t really expect an answer. The response I got was. “Everyone is fine and don’t believe what you read on social media.” I pressed politely and got nothing, don’t blame them but still curious if this was a reholster issue or something else.

Our (Wife and I) FOID renewal letters showed up this year weeks apart, but our cards have the same date. When we renewed our passports we spent extra money for mine to be expedited in case of a need for work, you pay extra and send the application priority mail as well. My passport showed up two days before hers and that was basically due to the expedited shipping, they shook me down for extra money to avoid a potential delay. When we renewed our TSA pre they processed my app quickly without any further requirements, they made her go in for another interview. I gave up trying to figure this stuff out.

I would suggest buying new. No telling what someone has done to their AR, especially if they are looking to sell it. You can get a SW or Palmetto State Armory in your budget. If you want to go up a bit American Defense in WI makes awesome rifles.

Arm piercing?

I was in the same situation as Op; FOID was set to expire 4/1/22. I just checked again today and my ISP account shows my FOID now with a 12/31/2024 date which is aligned to my CCL.

I had a similar experience also at the VanGogh this fall. Couldn’t find street parking after seeing they were wanding so went to the valet. Both our Highlander and Fusion have glove box keys, so I just locked it up and gave the valet the FOB only. Funny thing is I had my knife in my front pocket. When they asked us to empty pockets I held my hands up with wallet and key hiding the knife as best I could. They wanted my torso and sent me in.

For 9mm a Lee Pro is a good starter at a reasonable price. Dillon is definitely better, but much more expensive. I started on a Lee Pro and ran 1000’s of 9mm through it before switching to Dillon. If you are going to load 45 or rifle in volume I would suggest the Dillon 750 or 550. If just 9, the Lee progressive is a good starter if you don’t mind a little tweaking to get it humming.

Weighing them won’t help, there is enough variation in brass and projectile to mask any variation in powder. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Curious about any way to legally SBR in IL under 26”? Some guns, like the MP5K aren’t going to get to 26” with a brace or stock, leaving people who own such items in a pickle. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Thanks Molly!

I wanted to verify my understanding of safe harbor: If I have a CCL I can store the gun loaded in a case within my vehicle where safe harbor is allowed. I only have to unload if I want to get out of the car with the gun to store it in trunk. Is this correct?
