I owned a 84FS and it was one of the most precisely built guns I've held. I sold mine to a friend about 5 years ago since I just had other stuff I wanted more.Quote:

I carry a Paraordinance 45 which has been reworked to match grade with very thin grips. I have large hands so it fits me great. I say let them see it. They will probably leave you alone!
The Beretta 85F is my go to town carry, I like it because for a small gun it still feels good in my XL Gloved size, hands
I just ordered some of the Buffalo Bore 90gr JHC rounds for it , anyone else tried their stuff ????
I have a Kimber Eclipse Custom II .45 ACP, Ruger MK III .22 LR, Ruger LCR .357 Magnum, Hi-Standard Victor ..22 LR, Model 1938 Mosin-Nagant Carbine 7.62x54R, and a M1 Garand 30.06.
Today I blew the dust of my Sig and went to the range. I haven't shot any paper in years. I did OK, but the time off, and older eyes, showed. After being inspired, I drove over the river and to the gun store. I've been comparing different pistols for conceal carry and have decided on a Glock model 27 Gen 4. Problem #1, when I told the owner of the store I wanted to buy a pistol, the replied with, "so does everybody else", he's having trouble keeping things in stock. Problem #2, I wanted the new generation model 27, well, in the peoples republic of Kalifornia, that model hasn't been OK'ed for civilian use, but I could get a regular 27. Problem #3, they don't have any, and that seems to be a popular model, but they could order one. Problem #4 and so on, they don't have any at their supplier, so onto, what I was told, is an ever increasing wish list my name was added. Oh well, hopefully I won't have to wait too long. But it will probably bee long enough for the price to go up!!
Keep yer powder dry!! Catch ya later, Donv
My dad had some of their heavy 45 Colt +P. 325 gr(1,325fps/M.E.1,267 ft.lbs.) Kicks like a mule, very fun.Quote:

Yeah. I'm sure I'm far from alone. If anything got me uptight, it was not being able to get the gen 4. I mean, it's the same gun, I really liked the outline of it, instead of being a blunt, squared off muzzle, it was trimmed down some. It looked slicker, it that is the right way to say it. I know I have a long wait ahead of me, but that will give me more range time.Quote:

You are correct sir!! The pics I was using to compare threw me with the black on black and the light on black of the new gen. Thanks! I don't feel as bad now!!
