The Acadamy at Galveston is selling handguns? Most excellent! When did this start?
I cleaned a couple hundred rounds of 9mm WWB with Tarnex but haven't dared to fire it. If you do shoot yours, please let us know.

Yes, they are...(I think they were selling them Pre-Ike, but cant really remember.I usually try to deal with independently owned shops if possible to support the locals but the LCP was proving to be elusive)

Not a huge selection but not too bad....maybe 20 or so assorted makes and models of revolvers/SA's etc.

*****edited for Liberty to say I stopped in Galveston Academy today looking for ammo, and they actually have about 50 different models of handguns: Glocks,Rugers, XDs,Paras, Barettas, (I'm sure Im forgetting a few )....also Galveston Walmart had 3 "value packs" of WWB 40's after I got through today, but thats it(27.99$) probably gone by now

I finally found an LCP today at Academy in Galveston.....371 prefix, not under recall, already corrected problem at manufacturing . It came with a cool hardcase with very firm foam cutouts for pistol and extra mag. and it also came in a cardboard box with a 3 1/2 padlock, owners manual and insert with the updated exploded view after the change was made.

Has a ton of oil on it. Now if I could just find some ammo to buy for it, I'D go the the range......But galveston's range is still down, so Texas City I guess is on the agenda

I wish my several thousands of rounds of ammo didn't get submerged in 4 1/2 foot of saltwater from IKE. Cleaned it all up the best I could, but the brass is still getting a little green......anyone have any suggestions? I've flushed with Naptha, dried and the sprayed with case lube, but some is still getting funky. don't know if I should toss it all or see what it'll do at the range. I have 5.56 / 270 win / 7mm mag/ 300 win mag/ 380 / 40S&w /357 sig /45ACP /357 mag /and tons of 22long and 22 mag.....oh welll
