You shot your first Glock on a mountain?

I shot something
My favorite gun to pick up and just go shooting is my Glock. The ammo (10mm) is just so damn expensive. Gotta get off my butt and get back into reloading.
Very nice use of that spot
Don't know what you've been smoking but it sure as hell looks like fun
I will always remember my father's sage advice when I was talking about getting married: finish any expensive modifications to the cruiser now. Six years later, I get it, because I didn't do it!
And yup, the Glock isn't fancy. But after firing literally a few thousand rounds through it, I trust it and can hit with it better than any other concealable handgun I've ever owned. (Have a sweet S&W 686 w/ six inch barrel that is easier to hit with but is not very easy to hide.)
For a lock box, I use a GunVault with a steel cable that secures it behind the driver's seat. Gives you good access but prevents casual thieves from making off with your pistol. Of course, I live in Washington (with a CCW permit), so not worried about Johnny law seeing it when he pulls me over for enjoying the 5.7 a little too much.
Grew up in the PRK (People's Republic of Kalifornia) but left 20 years ago. Amazed at how different the west coast states are from each other.
@Markuson...been there done that. loved san diego (6yrs Navy, 6 SDSU) too crowded, too expensive and too many laws. Arizona is just a stones throw away, and step back in time. come on out, wheel, shoot, drink frosty beverages!!! (usually in that order)
Here's what I say about buying outright vs financing.
I hate debt too. BUT, if you can afford the Land Cruiser AND can pay for it outright don't. WHAT????
Take the Loan at 1.99% and keep the $85,000 in a Vanguard investment account making 6-8% over the long term. Just a strategy.
