Hey everyone!!!
I am new to the site not really new to guns but new to building my own AR-15.
About to buy my very first lower stripped. ( edit looking at a S&W not sure friend might be giving me a good deal on a lower dont know brand yet)
I live in NOVA was wondering what good gun shops were around here? I have only been in NOVA for about 3 months some of you may have seen me lol I ride a Orange CBR600RR year round.
Even today in the piss pouring rain =(
open to all advice, and comments
O I am 20 years old B-Day is in Dec will get my CCW, looking to carry a glock sub-compact 9mm maybe a 45 not sure yet.
I am going to NOVA for Paramedic!
Looks like a nice forum hope to get a warm invite.
Edit again CMMG stripped lower whats it worth anyone know? Thats what my friend is offering me he said he bought it for 125 plus fee's, dont want to insult him dont want to get ripped either

Hi Derby - welcome aboard!
Have a look here for NOVA-specific information. You might ask your question there so that locals can weigh in on where you might find a decent gun shop

If you are riding a motorcycle in the rain in NOVA, you'll need more than a gun for protection. You'll need God.
Welcome.
If you are looking for gun shops inside the beltway, you're outta luck I believe. At least I've never seen one. My favorite local gun shop is Virginia Arms in Manasas. But you'll find shops in the areas 20 miles or so out from the beltway. They're there... you just gotta bike to them.

You ride a bike in the rain? Snow? Dude, you need a car. I once wanted a bike and then I was like, wait, do I want to die on a bike or some other way? I chose "some other way" and bought a TT 300ZX. Anyways, welcome to the site. I just turned 21 so I am not too far away from your age.

Lol, yeah rain, snow whatever, only time I dont ride is when ICE is on the road!
Im not really a cager, I have been looking at a truck I will ONLY buy a toyota truck and only have about 1200-1500 for a truck. So if I find one in my price range I might pick it up...
Im not really afraid to ride in the bad weather I have been riding for 4 years, its not me I worry about its the moron on the phone behind me not paying attention I worry about.
Ive honestly had this feeling Im about to go down lately kind of eerie. Hope for the best prepare for the worst!!
You near NOVA? Trying to find some people to hang out with my age no luck so far everyone I have met at college besides a few people who are always busy is.... not as ummmm mature/sensible as I like to be..
