800 Customer Service Calls
Got it Dan, but I do see that while it's not required, some companies have procedures that they will redirect calls to US based customer service centers. Maybe if more people do it the the cost savings and volume of calls being redirected will show the need for additional staff to handle them here in the USA. Perfect word it might help, but getting the public masses to do this is our downfall. Harry

8-11 CJRPC USPSA special classifier match.
I figured it was a lost cause myself but I was up, the wife and daughter are flying back home from AZ tonight so being alone and plans to go there anyway I figured I give it a shot. As you can see that plan didn't work out so the work around the house I was going to put off is going to get done now. Harry

Thinking of driving to Cabellas to browse...
Mine came with 3 set and thee is no need to replace them unless they get worn out or fall of and you loose them. I keep the other sets in small zip lock bag inside another one to try and keep them from drying out. Not sure if that will work but I had extra small bags I was going to throw out anyway. I do the same thing with o-rings I buy in bulk, but I add a little oil in the bag on them to stop dry rot being I get 100 at a time and I am still work on my 1st 100 and haven't made a dent in my supply.

8-11 CJRPC USPSA special classifier match.
Well you all made a good choice in not coming out, me I just took my gun out for a ride. I got there and there were a few people there but the rain was heavy so they called the match, even had to divert from my intended route being there is a lot of flooding with some roads being blocked off on the way home. I figured I would just pass by OBRPC indoor range, well if I could have found a parking spot I might have stooped in but figure I'll take care of some stuff at home and maybe go to the range later today. Overall not a bad ride, got to see CJRPC for the first time, nice set up, will be looking forward to going there when it's a little less wet out. Harry

Manufacture replacement gun under warranty
Nice to know they may do that, however it may depend on model also, there were a bunch of S&W BG380 early in production run that had problems and all the folks on the BG380 site when they had to get new frames were given new serial number. Not a big deal for any of them being none of them live in the PRNJ. Harry

800 Customer Service Calls
This is a cut and paste from an email so I don't know if it 100% accurate so take it for however you like: This is a wonderful idea. I am certainly going to follow this suggestion. Any time you call an 800 number (for a credit card, banking, charter communications, health and other insurance, computer help desk, etc) and you find that you're talking to a foreign customer service representative (perhaps in India, Philippines, etc), please consider doing the following: After you connect and you realize that the customer service representative is not from the USA (you can always ask if you are not sure about the accent), please, very politely (this is not about trashing other cultures) say, "I'd like to speak to a customer service representative in the United States of America ." The rep might suggest talking to his/her manager, but, again, politely say, "Thank you, but I'd like to speak to a customer service representative in the USA ." YOU WILL BE IMMEDIATELY CONNECTED TO A REP IN THE USA . That's the rule and the LAW. It takes less than one minute to have your call re-directed to the USA . Tonight when I got redirected to a USA rep, I asked again to make sure - and yes, she was from Fort Lauderdale . Imagine what would happen if every US citizen insisted on talking to only US phone reps from this day on. Imagine how that would ultimately impact the number of US jobs that would need to be created ASAP. If I tell 10 people to consider this and you tell 10 people to consider doing this - see what I mean...it becomes an exercise in viral marketing 101. Remember - the goal here is to restore jobs back here at home - not to be abrupt or rude to a foreign phone rep. You may even get correct answers, good advice, and solutions to your problem - in real English. If you agree, please tell 10 people you know, and ask them to tell 10 people they know....etc...etc Harry

Manufacture replacement gun under warranty
On the slide itself or on the frame of the gun, if it's on the frame I would rather have the frame replace rather than repaired, but that would mean needing a P2P to get it back. Harry

Im no expert but i think im right .......
I was joking, I may have just had to go through a stress test, and EKG, just got some readers after the wife started asking me why I was moving things around to read them but I am no where close to being old, I may have a few years behind me but I am forever young. Ask my wife, she will tell ya I have yet to grow up. I'd still meet and practice stages with ya if you allow me.. Harry

On the hunt for 10mm brass
I agree Ron, while I have yet to start myself I would not want to be liable for a problem, even if it wasn't my ammo that caused the problem I would feel like if there was even a hint of it being the ammo I made fault I would not feel right unless I made it right with who ever used it. So knowing it could cost me money to do that I won't take the chance of it costing me money out of my pocket, let alone possible hard feeling between another shooter and I. Harry

Nick you are right, they did update the forecast between the time I left work and now. Here is one of the WX graphs we use at work, I agree not looking good in regards to lightning. WX 08527 Harry

What stages did you practice so we know what ones to add 2 second to your time.. I didn't have time to get out and set anything up and practice, oh well, I should be on the CSS team anyway. Harry

8-11 CJRPC USPSA special classifier match.
Anyone know if a post will be made here if the match is canceled, I have no problem shooting in the rain, heck you can only get but so wet, and out of all the stages 4 of the 6 are just standing in a single box, 1 you have to move from one box to another and 1 that you have to move from one side of a barrel to the other, not like a USPSA stage that you have a lot of running so a slip and a fall isn't likely, so it would have to real bad to cause a safety issue I would think.

NRA First Steps Pistol course?
Please correct this, the whole thread still implies GFH makes you supply your own firearm, They do not, it was a miss understanding. Yes they do allow you to bring your own if you want to, but if you don't have one they will supply everything for you. :thsmiley_deadhorse: Harry

OGAM now 33 Days?
That is right, the day you buy it it not to be counted, the next day would be the first day that you have now bought a handgun, right? If we counted the day you bought it and applied it to,,,,oh,,, lets say how old you are, would you not be a year older???? Harry

First 9mm?
My tank is empty from the time we moved (going on 7 years) and will stay like that for a while also, a lot cheaper that way. Harry

Dealers
If you don't like the way you are treated go someplace else, no reason you have to give them your business, there are plenty of good FFL's here on the forum and the Price Quote section here on the forum is a great starting place, you can even say where you are located and how far you are willing to travel save some of them the time sending you information you have not intention in buying from them. As other said PK90, TJ and Ira in Marlboro are the 3 FFL's I have dealt with and also Shore Shot and never had a problem with any of them. Harry
