NWI Ingo General Post - Part 3

[lowendgenerator]

Thinking about a compact 45. Anyone local to NWI got a G36 or an XDs they'd let me borrow?

 

[jedi]

Hey ... that's Jedi stalking someone. (It's late winter so the tan is missing) Where's his pack?

Sorry but that guy has no PINK so it can not be me.

@low
Clif45 has an xd in .40 but I dont think he will be at this next meet & shoot.

I won't be at this weekend's edition of M&S either.

I've already requested October's date off.

 

[Clif45]

maybe I will, maybe I wont. I must attend a friends wedding saturday and I want to stop at the gun show. I have an XDm in .40, but he is looking for an XDs, the single stack .45.

I have never worked with a more helpless group of people.

Who calls security to report a toilet in the men's room needs to be flushed.

Granted it's disgusting but is it somethig that security needs to handle?

 

[Ericpwp]

Arrest that POS!

 

[geronimojoe85]

I always said this was a s***ty job.

 

[Andy219]

What kind of guns can be used at indoor ranges? I've never been to one. I know handguns are ok, what about shotguns? Any handgun good to go, or are the 500 and 50 ae to much?

Just curious.
