#616810 - 24/07/07 07:08 PM Bored at work - made gun stickers
Anonymous

Nothing special, but I finished up what was on my plate at work, so I made some stickers.

My Springfield 9mm didn't come with a sticker so I decided to make my own. The ones on their site for purchase were lame too, so I redesigned one into what I wanted.

I think your sticker is nice. You did a good job.

I just have to ask.... why would you ever want to advertise the fact that you either like guns or own guns?

Maybe the culture is different out there. I don't know.

I've always thought it was smarter to not advertise to anyone that you may have a gun or carry a gun.

I see your point. I imagine it is a little different out here- more westerny, for lack of a better word. I'd actually rather people know I own and sometimes carry. From my observation, out here (unlike some webcrawling boards :rolleyes: ), most people you see driving Jeeps (highest populous in my obsv) and other clearly off road capable vehicles can be pretty much be lumped into the Pro-Gun, Republicanish, and most everything that follows, crowd.

For those that disagree, I don't know what to tell you, but when the trees don't hug you back at the end of the world and try to kill us all, a warning: I have a gun.

Aside from the fact that pictured is a long-rifle, and the XD is a handgun, I think it's a sweet sticker.

I am an FFL and have my CHL... I personaly wouldn't put anything on my car or truck either. There are just too many weenies out there that have seen gun or NRA stickers on a vehicle and told cops that "they flashed a gun at me".

Cool sticker though... you should put an Eagle Globe and Anchor on the cover (hat)!

Semper Fi!

Yeah, you caught me on that. It was just faster to use the rifleman as a base to start from. Thanks

Not to mention that the guy with the rifle is Springfield's trade mark icon thingy. It would be like changing the Burger King bun into a cone for an ice cream sticker.

Looks good, a buddy of mine at work just got an XD9 after I purchased his AR-15: www.rinky.us/ar.jpg

Compared to my Glock 17 I thought the trigger needed allot to be desired. Are there over travel stops and/or less sloppy triggers available for the thing? Seemed very spongy to me with a ton of over travel. Kinda weird, because I've heard only good things about those guns until I shot one myself.

I really like the weight compared to the S&W, and even a little to the Glock. I haven't had issue with the trigger so I'm not sure.

You really need to get ouf of New York and see the rest of the country. There's places where America is still free. Where I'm from, it's unusual NOT to see rifles in the back windows of pickups.

Lol.
When my I got my grandfather's '76 GMC, it had a double gun rack in the back window, a rack under the lip of the seat and a slide in rifle holster behind it. (Can you guess my hometown state?)

Kimbers are guns you show your friends. Glocks are guns you show your enemies.
