    At least for now it's a legal addiction LOL! LOL

    Actually I've put this off for a few months been
    looking at them, and my LGS made me a great deal

    I happened to be getting some Gunsmith work
    done on a Sig with a stubborn pin in the upper
    assembly in order to replace a firing pin spring.

    Shoulda stayed home and mowed the lawn...

    Next on my list is a Dillon press 550 or 650
    gonna make my own, saving brass at the range got
    about 2000 rounds of brass, figure I'll have 5000 or more
    when I get the goods lined up to start.

    That's a nice piece HRK
    Here is the one I'm looking at right
    Ruger compact SR9C. Has the best trigger pull on any other striker fired gun including the Glocks Ive recently looked at. Come with a 17 round extended mag also.

    Before you pull the trigger LOL get them to hand you a PPQ
    you may re-evaluate that "best trigger" of striker guns

    PPQ is now rated top striker gun- the trigger device
    is getting rave reviews, .1 reset, low trigger pull, smooth

    Glocks and RUgers have more of a DA set the trigger and
    release in the pull, the PPQ sear is set, the trigger just
    releases it like a single action...

    I like the Ruger not only for its great trigger but also the great price on them. The PPQ is really nice but a bit more than than I would want to pay especially with the Ruger 1911, XD 40, Taurus 5 shot 357, Colt Mustang 380, Colt 22/22 mag single six. Think might have enough for now.

    NOpe you can never have enough
    cash, booze, cigars, money, fun or ammo LOL

    Mine was $529 they are a little less
    on gun broker, but the fees brought it
    right to the same price.

    Funny I bought it from a store that has 7 locations
    they wanted $100 more at the store by me LOL

    Ruger is good, for kicks go handle the ppq and you
    will see why its so dang good.

    I looked at one and they wanted 595.00 for it. The prices at many of the booths were really high on many of their guns. Guess they had to pay for their booth costs. :rolleyes:
    I picked up 500 rounds of 40 cal today for 115.00 :D
