LOL! Don't be ashamed. Some of us still have Taurus ugly pistols. Or is that ugly Taurus pistols? lol. I can say that. I own several. PT145 is actually my favorite, with a PT 100 40 a close second! I have a sickly green TCH in my safe. Just loaded to snatch at a moments notice. Bought it as a joke for my wife. She WAS NOT impressed with my intent.

Mostly true. On the secondary market anyway. Retail pricing is creeping up on the Canik line. Even the metal frames of the original guns are beginning to get higer priced...when you can find anyone willing to sell one. My Shark is absolutely fantastic. The poly line is increasing as well. The best way to buy a Canik these days is to snap it up immediately when you see it from the big online sellers...PSA, GrabaGun, Primary, and Aim Surplus. Darn it...now I've given away my best secret sources!

I bow in your general direction for such an insanely insightful and accurate comment.

I must admit to owning a VP9 Tactical. It's been a safe queen since I bought it. The trigger seems pretty good on it. But I still prefer my Caniks and Walthers. LOL. My weak hands can handle those.

NOPE. NOPE. NOPE. Give in to the force LukeaRui!

PM sent.

Commander or full size? Got a RI 45 Commander that I would part with now. Pm me and we can discuss it.

Yeah, water under the bridge. But looks like you got a Buyer! That's Great! Saves me from pleading! LOL!

A big nope on that from me. lol. Way more invested in mine. I would however have given you the M85 for it. But that's long gone.

Yep! As Grayfox says...we know it for years! Decades even! Sure, I ALWAYS believed that line...We don't keep records. Destroyed right after approval. RIGHT!

But ain't dead enough for my hip pocket yet. Bought way too much in the last 3 months! So much so that even my wife is beginning to really seriously question me about it now.

Ditto on the pricing. I'm a 22WMR fan.

This is GREAT! And pretty accurate too!

Well. That certainly looks good! About a 2 hour trip for me. Don't know that I can make it, but sure would like to try. Migh even be able to get with GT and talk about that Bowie!

I really like my Sigs. I would like to own a 226X, but as Snaveba says "money" stops me. That sure is one of the most gorgeous Sigs I've ever seen though! But I'll just stay with my Nightmare.

Welcome to Tn and TGO! Gorgeous Mustang you have! That color is fantastic on it.

I've got and used several of the Pmags without issue. Have you tried any of the RWB or Amend2 mags? Have some of them also and rate them as good as KCI and other "military" mags. Of them all, I do seem to like the Amend2 better. Why? Maybe a better finish look to them. They certainly function as well as Glock and all the others.

Is there a virus? Yes. Is it lethal to some people? Yes. Are older, sick people more prone to get and die from it? Yes...it seems that way. Does the gub'ment use this virus as a weapon against the people for personal and political gain and power? Yes. Has the whole thing been politicized beyond belief? Yes. Do mask mandates and lockdowns help? I believe not. Has this country taken a major hit in all areas...personal, social, education of our children, and destruction of our economy? YES. There. Summarized all 199 pages and almost 5000 posts for everybody.

I would think it fit any M&P 9 wouldn't it? I'd take a good deal on this if we were anywhere near.

I've said this before, but needs to be repeated. David, you have some very interesting pistols. You give me ideas and bad thoughts. lol I have a G19 with a TLR7 stashed around the house. Does suit it's purpose and I'm familiar enough with it to not be concerned really about replacing it. However...that G45 setup is really nice looking. I bought a G45 and sold it to a buddy. I do sort of regret that move. Right up there with selling a Shadow Systems because I got money scared. lol Maybe I'll get one of the G45s if I stop buying all these other tempting items.

I don't have the ported Shield Plus, but I can tell you that the PC 2.0 ported is a joy to shoot. It does make reduce flip on the Shield. As the owner of multiple Shields over the years, I really like the PC 2.0 Ported model. Now my Shield Plus PC 4" is not ported. It shoots as well for me as the 2.0. Perhaps a bit more flip, but not being a pro, it's barely a consideration for me now. Would I like my new one ported...yes, I would. But got what I found when I found it. Now back to the og's topic. Is a comp really necessary on the 365XL? I haven't shot one, so i have no point of reference on it. Thoughts welcome.

I've never wanted a G43. Let's make that clear. lol. This I like...the extras make it a great package buy. The stippling is actually the first I've ever seen that I wouldn't call "ugly as a sow's butt." If I had not just bought a 365XL yesterday, I would go for this! I won't wish you luck...this should be gone very quickly without any help.

I'm there now.

As a borderline hoarder...I resent that remark!

Then you scored!
