    And bought a new gun..

    So just to get out, temps are down in the 70's at night,
    fresh cigar, bike running good, decided to stop in at
    my LGS.

    Mistake was I had my Ruger LCR 38 in my back pocket
    and while its a good little carry, light and works, i'd been
    thinking about selling it as I wasn't carrying it much.

    Talked to the mgr and we came up with a deal traded
    the LCR for a new Glock 43 Talo edition (basically a night sight)
    its light but not as light as the LCR but it's got an extra round
    actually two extra rounds with the extended mag.

    Yesterday I did 150 rounds through the new Shield, I love the gun! No jams, tight groups at 10 and 15 yards. Carries inside waist great.

    Just installed the rubber Talon grip on my Shield. Feels a lot better.
