Saw a Ruger LCP at a gun show. Thought about it overnight, and went back Sunday to get it.

Only had time to put 30 rounds through it after cleaning, but they were flawless, and the tiny, and I mean tiny, sights are right on with Speer 90 grain GDHPs, which is the only ammo I currently have for it.

Really like the way it glides out of my pocket.

I'd put another 200 rounds through it or hand cycle the slide about 400 times before I trusted it for carry. I realize that it's a challenge to put more than about 30 rounds through it per range visit, so do a lot of hand cycling while you're watching TV. Be sure that your mags and ammo are in a different room.

Latest addition to my family is a Walther P99 AS in 9mm. I needed another hi-cap after giving my P228 to my son. First range trip, I couldn't see where shots #3 & 4 went. Hmmm, something wrong with this gun? They went through the same hole as shot #2. I think I'm liking this piece. Plus I got an Airsoft version so I can practice point shooting around the house. Never had a full size polymer, this one looks like a keeper.

If you will reduce the size of the photo with Photoshop or some other photo editing software before you put it out on the site you host it on, then it will fit better. :thumbs2:

Wear did you find the best price on the SP101? I am interested in one but am having a hard time coming off the cash for it. I am also looking at a S&W model 60 w/ 3" barrel. But that is even more money...

Glock 19 RTF2

I keep telling people that you don't grip this Glock as much as it grips you. New texture is just awesome, IMHO.

I bought mine from Spring Guns and Ammo, price was $500, I saw one for $299 used in Gander but procrastinated and missed it, that'll teach me. Never owned a revolver before and I'll never sell this one, tough as old nails and a great carry pistol for the warmer weather that's on it's way.
Just ordered a holster for it from Simply Rugged, one that is both OWB and IWB. Ordered it on the 27th Feb and it shipped yesterday....

Good luck with your search for one.

I got this Bersa .380 a few months ago. It's a great little gun! Very snappy. I also have a Crossbreed holster for it.

Picked up a Kimber Eclipse Pro Target II yesterday. Installed Raasco Indigo Dymondwood half checkered grips on it. Shot Pow'rball 165 gr +P, Speer LE 185 gr gdhp and monarch 230 gr tmj total of about 125 rounds through it today with no problems. Awesome pistol to shoot. Wife shot about 60 rounds and loved it except for the fact that it ejects empties right out on top of your head. Last 21 rounds she hit 18 coke cans at 15 yds. This is going to be an excellent edc for me.
