Cranbery's Build - "Homelander"

[Cranbery]

Yeah right, my lil guy is up there as well just turned 4. His thread is literally making me poorer as I fill my cart with build rite molle panels

Wait till I get the rims and Amp steps on, this forum is about to go broke!

Its all about the ‘U’ cranberry.

- Heavily leaning towards the amp power steps

If the wheels you are buying have an offset something like 0mm or +12mm you may want to keep the original steps. They do a pretty good job of deflecting rocks.

Yeah these are what I'm looking at:

305 | NV | Matte Black

The 305 NV Wheel features an iconic 12 window design with a debossed Method logo on either side of the center cap. The lip undercut simulates a true beadlock wheel and has replaceable lip bolts with optional colors available. It boasts a strong 2,500- 3,640 lbs. load rating with heavy duty (HD)...

I do like the protection they offer, also width wise, but the Amp steps are dope. Hard decision.

Yeah, with an ET0 and amp steps, you'll probably want some fender flares or wide mud flaps (or both) depending on your tires

Captains log: my girlfriend accidentally threw away the box holding the stash I had for the interior lighting and the rust paint.... $300 down the drain. Need to order the lights again, and the harness again from John. Big rip.

Going to put the truck on a friend's lift later this month and do the rust paint, as well as the skid plates.

Sorry man, gotta cut her loose.

I guess I shouldn’t like this.
I hope you didn’t pull a Will Smith on her , $300’s a couple hours at Tootsies, no biggie.

Now I can't get the damn glove box light from anywhere, all backordered.

Got the holster in today. It's the alien hook and loop, it's basically a velcro pad with a really strong adhesive and the holster sticks onto the pad. It's very sturdy, I had my doubts but it's legit. Perfect for the center console.

My only downfall to a holster in your vehicle is if you have to leave the vehicle you might forget to grab the gun, I carry every where. If they don't permit it I don't go.

Agree. Except I still go if I want to.

Tbh that's also kind of the point of it. I work construction, can't carry into jobsites. I try not to leave it in the vehicle in case it gets broken into, but in reality if it does get stolen, report it, buy another one. It's not like people don't get illegal guns in all sorts of ways, and they can pop a safe in your center console pretty easily from what I've read too. Same way if someone goes into your house while you're out of town they can steal your gun from there.

It allows easy access for when I want to have it, it isn't visible, and it's not in the way when I don't have it there.

I’m wanting a safe because I have a kid and don’t leave unsecured firearms around. I’m hoping to figure out a way to mount a Vaultek Slider somewhere.

Makes sense if you have kids. Glovebox might fit one.

I wasn't saying not to do it, I understand why people do it, I usually keep a backup gun in the truck myself, although it's usually an AR, sometimes a pump or my keltec sub2k. Speaking of which if you have never shot one they are extremely fun.

maybe, I have on my desk and it’s pretty big. Might have to go under the seat somehow.

Holster is cool - thanks for this review.

Side note, those console dividers are one of the simplest and best mods!

Ngl didn't expect it to be that large. Thought they were smaller for compacts or sub compacts.

I wish they made a smaller size, it will fit a full size and then some, also a spare mag. My little P365XL gets lost in there.
