Default I had not bought a gun in a month

I fixed that problem a few days ago. I got a Sig P250f .45 a.c.p. and a Sig P250c 9mm from a man for a decent price. He did not like the DAO triggers. I suppose most of metro Atlanta doesn't either, as I was one of only two people to respond to his ad. DAO is not for everybody, I happen to like it. I have a FDE grip module to fit the 9mm.

The P250 trigger is not that awful, but I guess it makes for cheaper guns for those of us who are prepared to deal with it.

I must be getting old or something. I sold a gun 2 weeks ago, and have not replaced it yet. I normally have new ones scouted before I sell. Bob

Count me in. . .I don't like DAO either. It is hard to go a month without buying a gun.

Hadn't bought a gun in a whole month, eh? Well, congratulations on the new to you SIGs.

I can't recall when I last bought a handgun. Lately, I am seeing both some good prices AND some new models I would like to try, even tough I have absolutely no need for anything new. In my case, I have my eyes on the new "Model 69" .44 Magnum and the M&P 2.0 9mm Compact model. Silly me - in both cases. And there are a couple of others, too..

Enjoy your new SIGs!

I hadn't bought a gun in quite a while. My pastor walked up to me two Sundays ago and said "Give me something for this gun." so I did! He's accumulating funds for a mission trip. Turns out, I had just bought the wife a LCR 38 w/CT laser along with holster and 450 rounds of factory ammo. Hey pastor, Have a nice trip!

Ivan

I am the opposite I can’t go a month without buying a gun.....I have posted up a number of pictures of recen buy and have started down a slippery slop of about a gun a week recently.....a 28-2, 13-3 blue, then a 13-3 nickel and just this week a 57.......I think I have a problem, oh well. Now on the hunt for something that I don’t have and might want.....I am open to suggestions.

I bought my last and final gun two weeks ago. No more guns for me. Except my friend has a S&W model 41 calling my name, and I just looked at a 65-5. So except for those two, I'm done.However there is a gun show in two weeks 1 mile away ,I'll just check that out too. After that I'm done.

I love gun people. They're worse than poker players with their addictions.....

I tried to not buy any more guns and then like a little kid I saw a red one. Not a S&W but so what, it's red, I love red, I want it. DAO, too - I'll get over that quickly.

Encouraging. I just got my two week chip.
