It's made by Chiappa, no? Besides the Rhino, I only hear bad things about them, including the .22lr version of this.

That's correct

When you fire a gun with a live round in it, the firing pin travels forward and strikes the primer, bringing it to rest. When the chamber is empty, the firing pin has nothing to stop it's forward momentum until it hits something else (usually hard steel) somewhere along the pin. That could, long term, cause damage.

Never been there. But in that area, Lou's in Raritan is great.

Really?

Haha, nice! Congrats

Glen: If the weather holds up, I might finally sign up next week and head out Sunday morning. ------------------------------- GRIZ: Thanks again. I took off the cylinder, crane and side plate off last night, gave a thorough cleaning (without disassembling the guts), frogged it up and put back together.... WOW. The stiff D/A pull (especially on one of the chambers) is now smooth as butter. glf, others: Yeah, I couldn't be happier. Can't wait to shoot it.

I agree. The INOX is def. a great looking gun, but the M9 is so classic. In fact, it's the only reason I have 9mm guns. Otherwise it would just be .45 ACP and wheel gun calibers.

Congrats!! I fondled it a little yesterday and man, what sweet trigger. Great buy. Also, I've always gotten good service at Efinger. All the guys behind the counter I've dealt with (probably all of them by now) are really down to earth, pro 2A and (especially the older guys) knowledgeable about what they're selling. Their prices on new guns are on the higher end (right around MSRP), but they usually have a good selection of used guns at good prices. That GP and the Model 10 I bought from them yesterday are perfect examples. BTW, one of the guys really was going to buy that GP, but they got a Dan Wesson in and he went for that instead.

I don't see how the seller in a private sale would get jammed up. Unless he actually sold the buyer multiple handguns in one month. Yup.

As promised:

10-4.

I'm a frog luber, myself. It's getting the full take down, detail cleaning and minty lube tonight.

Thanks guys.

For my money $500 Glock 19 $450- M&P 9 $400- Used Glock 19 $300- Ruger P95

Just came from Efinger. They have a nice 4" GP100 with an awesome trigger job for $399. I would've bought it if I want already there for something else.

Well I went back tonight and it turns out I was wrong. Square butt, not round. Of course I bought it anyway. Pics to follow...

They're holding it in the back for me until tonight. I'm heading over there right after work to pick it up.

This^ I measured all the distances in my place. The furthest that I would be taking a shot is 23 feet (<8 yds) (downstairs rec room) unless I happen to be in this one corner and I'm shooting all the way across the opposite corner, which is extremely unlikely. And even that's only 35 feet. Bedroom, living room, ktichen area, all 10-20 feet.

aim surplus had boxes of 25 for about $17-18.

The dangers of being under-armed are pretty serious. Especially if the person just doesn't get it. One of my best friends has one of those 12 months worth of food set ups, plus some other supplies. He also has 1 gun that he shoots maybe once a year. After Sandy, he was busting balls saying "If this had lasted longer, you guys (me and our other friend, also a gun guy) would've been trying to make gunpowder sandwiches while I would've feasting on beef stew." We looked at each other and broke out laughing. When he was like "what's so funny?" I explained that given our long-standing friendship, we could've worked out a deal where he shared his food and we didn't shoot him. Of course we were kidding. But others wouldn't be.

Nice

I run a box of every HD ammo I plan to load through each gun that it'll be loaded in, always. I even do it in the wheel guns, mainly to check POI.
