I had a couple places offer me 400-500 for my SA EMP .40, I asked him if he thought I was crazy. I got a better deal selling to a buddy of mine plus I know him very well and know that if I ever wanted it back he would sell it to me for what I sold it to him for.

Selling anything can be a hassle I have learned in my short years on this planet. I know a few people that get what they are asking and even make a buck or two. I personally always lose my rear end selling things IMO. Typically I try and only sell something if I really need the money quickly so maybe that is why.

I have been carrying my 27 as a 23 for a few days now. My wife says she can see it but only because she knows its there. Tonight I am wearing a lime green shirt PLAIN no graffics, somewhat tight. I am purposely TRYING to print and honestly feel more and more comfortable as I am doing so. Before anyone jumps on me, I am at home. I have realized that I inadvertently pull my shirts down to my waste tighter frequently. For the last two days I pull UP and let fall. It has made a tremendous impact on hiding. Also I have been paying closer attention to how my gun rides along my spare tire. I am 5 '8 197 pounds stockier guy. I rock a mean 33 inch spare tire though :D.

I have never really payed as close attention to the .357 sig ballistics as I have always wanted to jump to 10mm. They are impressive no doubt. I have tried finding some .357 sig vs pig stats haven't come up with much. Besides I like the idea of a 200g 10mm :D. It is going to happen just a matter of when.

You still only have a 3 finger purchase but you stop worrying about your bottom finger slipping - especially if someone were to grab the gun by the barrel. It feels far more solid in your hand.

I find that I shoot every bit as good and comfortable using this floor plate AND it keeps the G27 nice and small in it's "print". It's cheap enough to try out and I think you'd be surprised. I've shot lotsa rounds with my G27 equipped with this and I feel completely comfortable with it as I do my G23.

I love the GAP floorplates............good suggestion.

You have one of those baby spares. Try wearing a fullsize spare like I have. Makes the gun disappear, but I can't wait to get rid of it.

That quote above isn't what I wrote but it says it is. That's strange.

I would like to put on a few pound in a heathly way. I am 6 ft. and 150lbs. I have a hard time concealing a stick of bubble gum.

Just to add what others have already said about the GAP floor plates, I've been using them for the last several years on my G33 and love them. They do not add any length, so they make it easy to conceal. But the main thing is controlling the recoil of the 357 sig in summer when your hands can get a little sweaty. Another benefit is the positive purchase I get when unholstering. Again, I wouldn't want to carry my G33 without them.
