So, first off, this isn't something that I plan on using for self-defense. probably just training with cheap ammo and hunting. With that having been said, I'm really probably not interested in spending more than $1k as $1k is already a lot more than I'd like to pay.

It looks like my options, in order of low -> high cost are:

1. get a 7.62x39 upper and some c products defense mags for probably $500-600. biggest con being potential reliability issues. even if this isn't going to be my go-to self-defense weapon, I'd still like it to be reliable with the least amount of work on my part.

2. PSA ak, probably with whatever cheapest polymer furniture. people talk shit about them because they a

hypothetically, if you have had maybe 36 hours of power in the past week, have no way to heat your home(which is now down into the 30s inside,) would it be possible to cut open a utility company exec and crawl inside them for warmth(like they're a Tauntaun in Star Wars) during these trying times?

88 Merkur. Stock. Has probably less than 1k miles on a rebuilt engine. Developed an issue where it would start and run, but under any load it would die. My stepdad spent a bunch of money getting it on the road and then it promptly died, so he gave up on spending any more money on it and started trying to sell it. That was years ago, and it's been sitting in our car port since then. Every once in a while, someone knocks on the door to ask about it. But it's a non-running XR that he wants a bunch of money for because he wants to get the money for the rebuilt engine back. That's never going to happen.

I have a decent job and I hate seeing it sitting in the driveway. Especially since I know I c

So, I was hired by an MSP as an IT Intern in January of 2019. Everyone liked me, and I was apparently capable of handling things most interns for some reason were too incompetent to handle, so when my internship was up they offered me a part-time help desk job with the only stipulation being that I couldn't work more than 32 hours a week, so they didn't have to give me those pesky benefits. I more or less finished school this year(still have a final to take.) So the MSP offered me full-time, $34,000/year, benefits, all that good stuff.

Well, while all this has been happening, MSP was purchased by Bigger MSP. Now the thing is becoming final and MSP is essentially rebranding as Bigger MSP. We
