    Put request to be notified. Thanks Any idea when this may hit the shelves? This year or next year?
  2. Gone. Only .32 left.
  3. You may regret it later. Should be an easy sell if you do though.
  4. Nice choice. I ended up buying the Uberti 1866 Yellow boy .38 cal lever last week. Still sitting in the shop waiting for the "INSTANT" check to come in 3 weeks. This is my first rifle and I am a huge carbine and lever action fan. I was even a fan before the movie Django came out and made everyone lever action crazy. lol

    I have a Walter P99 and the paddle magazine button is awesome. I think it makes the gun look sexier as well. Lol
  6. Thanks for the input on the trigger. I was thinking of getting a M&P 9/40 pro or the Glock 34/35 for the range. Also has the XDM 5.25 on the list as well.
  7. I thought a straw purchase was if the other person did not have documentation and a firearm was purchased for them. Would it be the same if he handed his buddy the cash before they went in the store?
  8. I would get the .22 if you don't mind searching for ammo every week. I never fired a M&P 22 but have read posts from plenty of forum members speak very highly of them. I have a Buckmark waitng to come home in a few weeks. I stockpiled a ton of .22 lr the last couple of months to keep it happy. Also picked up a few magazines as well. Very easy to find Buckmark mags.
  9. My local shop owner said the same thing. It is breaking the little shops sitting on all the guns unpaid guns waiting for NICS. They also have to shell out more more money to replenish inventory. Maybe that is the goal for politicians in NJ. To get as many shops to go out of business.
  10. Based strictly on the topic title, I for sure thought the OP would have posted a picture of his safe either collapsing his basement stairs or smashing into some drywall.
  11. Just bought an Uberti 1866 yellow boy in .38 cal the other day. I saw it in the shop a month ago and then a second look again the other day and could not put it down it was so nice looking so I splurged and bought it. Working overtime at my job the next few weeks to pay for it. My first long gun and I love carbines. I feel like I made a great choice. Should have her home in about three weeks once the "INSTANT" check come in.
  12. I never used a laser sight and have no interest in them. Do they really work? I always thought they were a gimmick. They may be fun messing around with a .22 pistol but for anything else I would pass.
  13. Cabelas is 5 boxes per day except for rimfire ammo which is one per day. One box per day is pretty bad. Most shops by me are 3 box limit per caliber for handgun ammo. No limit on rifle or shot gun. Dick's does have three box limit per day per purchase and any 100 or more round box counts as two boxes.
  14. The sad music made me cry. lol Nice editing.
  15. Saw it. Shipping is super high. Comes out to be $1 more than my local shop sell it for. I do like this ammo though and my P99 loves it.
  16. Yea definitely plan on it. My 2 remaining permits expire on July 2. I just bought a pistol and rifle this past Wednesday and was told it could 17-21 days for NICS to come in. Tack on 30 days for OGAM starting after pick up and WHAM I am at the end of June already. No chance to use another permit unless I buy a handgun used from someone face to face.
  17. Sludog replied to bry@n's topic in Handguns
    I want one of these exact guns but they are very pricey. Saw a new one for $925 Seemed very high to me but have not really priced these out very much. What was the seller asking?
  18. Since the NICS is taking record times going thru, I was wondering what would happen if a purchase permit expires while waiting for NICS to clear. I would guess the purchase would be voided and the buyer is out $15 for his troubles. I have 4 permits and used two so far it seems it is impossible to use more than 2 permits in under 90 days.
  19. Very Nice. I have been looking for the Sako Quad rifle and complete barrel set for months now and have had no luck. Saw one a while back on GB selling for $2000 but that is just crazy.
  20. Wonderful story. The ending left us hanging. Lol
  21. Sludog replied to JoeTK37's topic in Handguns
    I had 4 permits, used two so far. Bought a Walther P99 and a Buckmark pistol. Love the P99. Just put permit in for the Buckmark so I could be in for about 3 weeks waiting for NICS to come back. I am going to have to put in for extensions for at least one of the other two permits. I definitely plan on getting a Smith or Colt revolver, either .38 or .357, with one and the other permit is wide open. Possibly get another 9mm or maybe a .40 cal. Sig is one of my top brands but also like the M&P's and could never count out a Glock. When I started shopping I was set on getting a 1911 .45 cal but I will hold off on getting better shooting down before I go that route. Plan to put in some more permits requests towards the end of the year or beginning of next year. I have been able to find handgun ammo pretty easily as of late. The .22 long is a lot tougher but it is out there if you put some time in searching. I have over 4000 rounds of .22 long stockpiled and waiting for my Buckmark to come home. I still buy a box or two every time I se it in a store if the price is reasonable.
  22. I just bought a pistol and rifle today at my LGS and was told that the NICS have been taking 17 days and I could be in for 21 days of waiting. I overheard the shop owner say that he is embarrassed to ask buyers to put down payments on the guns because he is strung out so far laying out all his inventory for 2-3 weeks. Looks like we will soon be heading to 30 day wait times. Is there an end in sight to this madness?
  23. Just an update. I bought the the Uberti 1866 Yellow boy .38 cal today. I went to the shop to put my purchase permit and NICS in for a Browning Buckmark pistol I had on layaway waiting for OGAM to pass and looked long and hard at the Uberti again. It just felt right and looked beautiful and did not want to pass it up again. I also held a Rossi .357 lever and a couple of Henry .22's they had but the Uberti blew them away in my opinion. This is my first rifle and I may have gone overboard but I think I made a great choice. Figured I could use the same NICS check and save a few bucks. Sad thing is that I was told that NICS are taking 17 days now and mine may be up to 21 days. At least I have that time to save some money up because I will be pretty broke soon. Probably have to sell off some of the ammo I have been stock piling.
  24. Gone in a few minutes. Had a box in my cart then decided not to bother for 100 rounds. Checked back a few minutes later and all gone.
