How 'bout one of these? I saw it on the 6 o'clock news. It's pretty awsome. I was a bit shocked to learn the price was $33,000. That seems about twice as much as they should be selling for. The local dealer can't keep them in stock, and has a waiting list of 15-20 people. http://www.thoroughbred-motorsports.com/

I've been a member over there for a while. I'll keep searching around.

Maybe I'm gonna have to buy the XD45.

I saw a PO P16 .40S&W that the barrel had been converted into a 10mm. Can this be done with an XD40? If so, what would it take?

Yea, I'm going to spend some time looking at the other options. I, at first chose the Glock, because they are a bit lighter than the other options. They are also in the price range I was looking to spend. I have a hard time spending $1000 on any gun, but especially a handgun. I'll keep looking.

I'm really interested in buying a 10mm handgun, and decided to check out the Glock 20 and 29. Maybe I'm too picky, but neither were the right fit for me. Even though I'm not a huge Glock fan, I'm kinda bummed. I stopped by that ridiculously over-priced gun store in Williamson County, just to get a feel for my options. I first played with the 29, and there was no way that little thing was gonna work for me. My hands are far too big for such a short grip. I then checked out the 20, but the picky side of me feels like the barrel is about 1/2 in too long. I know that's not much, but it matters to me. If I didn't intend on using it as a carry weapon from time to time, that 1/2 inch probably wouldnt matter. The barrel lenght is one of the reasons I love my XD. The XD40 4" couldn't be any more of a perfect fit for me. So, if Glock would make the 20 with a barrel that's 1/2-1 inch shorter, or a 29 with grips that are about 1-1/2 inches longer, I'd add a Glock to my collection. OR..... Springfield Armory could make a damn XD10 4" and everything would remain perfect.

I'm a rebel like that.

Thanks a bunch. Exactly what I needed to know.

I know that, but I just wanted to make sure there were no funny rules when it comes to AR's. Thanks a bunch.

I have a question about AR-type rifles. When buying an AR-type rifle from an individual, do you have to get it registered?

I bet you are. I've been looking for another woman to join my girlfriend. For the HCP that is. I figured she'd have a better time and feel more comfortable if she had someone to go with.

Congrats! Yep, the first few trips outdoors with the HCP is a little weird. Before you know it, you'll feel weird without it. I'm sure Allan will have his in no time. I turned in my paperwork 3 or 4 days after a friend of mine, and mine came in a week before his. I'm not sure how they justify that, but it wasn't long after. Maybe they have a feeling that he's one of those rouge grease monkeys.

And the correct answer is................. With that being said I'll be in that Brentwood/Franklin area to pick up a gun case, so I'll really have no choice but to stop by the show.

The wife. She's not only gorgeous, but also thoughful enough to bring home a year long range pass. Any sister?

WOW! You're one lucky man. Enjoy!

You'll not find them for that price on a regualr basis. I thought about buying one myself, but my hands are far too big for the grip. If you really like it, go back. Also, you could check out the EMP. They are more expensive, but very similar to the Kimber. You can get a 9mm, .40, or the .45. Sweet little gun.

Looks nice. I actually prefer the matte finish. Good job.

I understand what you're saying. So, if "someone" is reading this, and has the impression that I'm somehow involved in a "straw purchase", that is incorrect. As I stated in a previous post, I asked the store owner to order this firearm for me, and because I'm a man of my word, I didn't feel like backing out on the deal would have been the right decision. So, here I am with a XD(M) that honestly, I could live without at this time. If I could find a trade (with another person who's legally allowed to own a firearm, of course) that would suit my needs/wants, I would go that route. If not, I'll keep it. Maybe, being one of the first 5000 sold, one day it will be worth a trillion-zillion dollars. And I could finally retire. Thanks again, Tunggy!

Haven't y'all made up my mind yet? Is OC a good or bad idea?

Boston Legal. One of my favorite shows, ever. If Denny is going to be our President, then Alan Shore is a must have for the VP. Those two are a great match on the show.

LOL...It's no problem. Just givin' you a hard time.
