Good buy. You will love this gun.
Gun control is like stopping drunk driving by making it harder for sober people to drive.

Unless you've got more motorcycles and lots of parts you wouldn't mind parting with.....AEA wrote:You think you're in trouble now?...........

Re: got bit by the bug...2nd hand gun.
I know what you're going through v-rog. I've sold my golf clubs, video game system, sports collectibles......almost every personal item I have, excpet my guitar, to buy more guns or gun parts. Don't worry about getting over that bug becasue it ain't gonna happen! BTW, excellent choice on the M&P. I bought the full size 45 a couple of months back. You're gonna love it.

Good choice on gun. You're of course now obligated to post pictures.
I know what you mean about bug. That gun, along with several others, is on my list.

Good choice on the M&P. It's a nice shooter.

I would never want to be bit by the BUG, or the main gun for that matter.

Just a warning, since you realize that you have a problem now you should nip it in the bud before your collection/stash/horde/cache of firearms reaches some where between 40 and 100. 

How do you explain a dog named Sauer without first telling the story of a Puppy named Sig?

So, I guess I should reinstall the hot water heater and take it off of ebay before the wife wakes up?

Re: got bit by the bug...2nd hand gun.
A quick question ... pardon my naiveté, why is it taking four to six weeks? When I got the bug, I also had to walk out with my purchase right then.
