OT Gun Talk:

Im a Gun guy. I'm into Glocks and recommend the 9mm versions to all new shooters. Start with a Glock 19, buy 1000 rounds and take a training course. Then you can gradually move into the more powerful calibers. I personally carry a .40, Glock 23. Best weapon I've ever owned.

The AR is my choice of carbine as well. Big discrepancy on brands, some are real junk. I'd stick with Bravo Company(my personal brand), Daniel Defense, or Colt. I would recommend another forum for this. Go there an READ, read, read. M4Carbine.net If you need a referral, let me know, it can speed up the approval process for getting in there.

PM me if you have any other questions, or we could get a thread going in the lounge. let me know!

Confirmation:

Talked to the Radio Shack guy that has been completely honest with me from day 1 and he said his Verizon Rep called and talked to him and said tentative date was Thursday. I trust this guy completely. He's not tried to withold info or BS me with info he didn't have. He has told me straight up what he knows every time I've talked with him and has no reason to lie. He has one phone and it is locked in his desk with my name on it. The phone is sold to me already and he knows it. He's just waiting on launch day.


Edit: added bold, underline, and bigger text for emphasis.

I am also a huge gun enthusiast. I have so many guns I don't even know what I all have. But I have highlighted the most important part of his post. I think everyone should go through a course to know how to handle a weapon properly. Not just what their friend told them. That way you know if the person with you is handling the gun in a safe manner. If are not then it is probably best not to be around them when they have a gun.

Whenever someone asks you how many guns you need the answer is always, One more!

I'm about to do this too so I'd like to know. Peace out Sprint!

So I just got off the phone with Verizon...

In case you or anyone else is curious, porting a number *does not* delay shipping. They input the information for the port and then send you the phone. Once you activate the device, then it could take 3-24 hours for full completion of the port, but a lot of the times it is instant.

That is what the sales rep just told me. Hope this helps.

I'm scared, guys. I'm scared.

Getting a sinking feeling.

Really? I don't at all. I'm more confident then last week when the 9th was leaked actually.

Why you so concerned?

This place will be ugly if this thing doesn't drop this week. Everyone is getting their hopes up, including myself. I'm drawing the line this week. Going to be THAT guy with an ultimatum. If I can't get the phone this week, I'm moving on. My screen on my OG Droid just went out and I can only go so long without a phone.

I'll buy the phone whenever it drops provided I can still get double data (or unlimited via the unlimited mobile hotspot thing...) but I need this weekend to be the cutoff for my full time job on this thread.

I promised myself I'd have 25,000 more words written on my novel by the end of the month and I've written like 200... Need to get back on track and get it finished!
