When I'm at the range and everyone is lighting off full autos and suppressed toys, I light off a few 180gr rounds and everyone comes over to watch.

My list is simple, another 8" Stainless 357 Colt Python. Like all things good, I sold my last one.

Why don'tcha cut your dick off too? You get premium $$$ with those items and have to discount $$$ without....and everything gets sold eventually.

An analogy you have a 3 bedroom house...why not tear one bedroom down because you are not using it? You really should know better.

I'm on the hunt for a S&W M-29 to round out my collection. I want an early 29, Blue, 6", original grips, No target trigger or hammer. The box & paperwork too........as long as I'm wishing.

Then I'll have my "N" frame line up complete.

Retailers are blowing out the P250 because nobody wants them. SIG, in their infinite wisdom, decided that reason people didn't want P250s is because they are hammer-fired. So they made a version that's striker-fired and called it the P320. Frankly, it is a thoroughly mediocre pistol at best (I own one, as a kind of experiment), especially considering that the key selling point--interchangeable frames, barrels, slides--are basically vaporware unless you order directly from SIG.

SIG's best stuff was German. I'd love an X5 or an X6 (or both). But in the past 5-10 years or so they seem to have lost their way--there's a lot of "throw it out there and see if it sticks" in their product offerings.

The 226 is larger than what I want..

Obviously a very nice piece but it was due for a tune up and I did not want to put money into so I sold it for 3 times what I paid for it and moved on. It's what we do..buy and sell things, some times we regret it sometime we don't.

The new P226 with the rail is super nice feeling. Makes my older model look very dated.
