Get something new. Why raid your brothers safe, those will always be there. Go to a nice gunshop, grap a few pistols you like, feel'em out, and go home with 2 brandy new roscoe's for your collection. How about that?



You must be nuts to buy anything at most gunshops right now. I didnt say all, but most. Their prices are way high. I am all for supporting business, but not when they are charging some of the highest prices in the country. I think the 95% of the people who go into the shop without looking around online to make an informed decision make up for the rest of us. I do buy some accessories there though, ie cases, on which prices are not bad.

The new firearms I purchased, were orders from local ffl's. The used ones, were in amazing condition via trades with board members, or raiding my brother's safe queens.


Sorry bro, but the prices aren't coming down anytime soon. As a matter of fact, there problably going to stay the same until the AWB becomes law again or another law of that nature makes handguns almost illegal. Get'em now while you can, because you never know what's going to happen in the upcoming months.

Its Back! quite happy with the service at springfield. Paid shipping both ways. Only issue is, they had to mail it back to an FFL. Had to run another nics... used a fella right here in my back yard.

Springfield refinished the slide and ther parts.

Nice, now you have to get it dirty.

I thought if you mailed a gun to a manufacturer, they can mail it back to you.

apparently in jersey since an FFL didnt have a track record of having it... had to ship it to FFL.. Dont know, this came straight from Springfield Armory about shipping to NJ. Both the FFL and Springfield Armory talked to ATF and they said had to be shipped. Had to pay NICS. Luckily, since this was the guy I bought my smith from... only charged me $20.

Props to Springfield for paying shipping both ways. So if you need to mail something in... ask them for RMA number and about shipping. Otherwise, they will just have you pay shipping.

I had read the same thing about someone needing to send a rifle in for repair work, but maybe in only applies to long arms.
