Default Sup Y'all!!

Just purchased a new S&W 610 10mm after many weeks of searching.
Only to find out there was one available here in Houston at Collectors Firearms.
Paid a bit more than I'd have liked at $995 but in todays market I was just happy to find one.
What a beautiful handgun!!!
My other favorite is my FNX .45 Tactical...but who doesnt love an S&W revolver?
I'll be picking y'alls brains for more info I'm sure.

I'm sure there's a way,I guess I'll just have to figure it out.
Most of the boards I visit are easy with just a few clicks.

If you want to attach them straight from your computer you click on the "GO Advanced" tab and then click on the small black paperclip (attachments) tab.

Once on the attachments subscreen you have to click on the gray "Choose File" tab. Select a file and hit the "OPEN" tab.....then you have to click on the dark blue "Upload" tab on the attachments subscreen. Once the file is uploaded then you can either select "Choose File" again to attach more pics or simply use the "Close this window" tab on the attachments subscreen and click the dark blue "Submit Reply" tab on the "Go Advanced" text screen.

(You can attach/upload up to 5 images directly from your computer in each individual post.)

Oh, and welcome to the forum from a fellow Texan!

Looks like you may be getting the hang of it.

The more you tinker with it the more you'll get the hang of it.

Ended up paying $995.
There were plenty from online sources that were $150 bucks cheaper but of course they were all out of stock......even when it said in stock.
Drove me nuts!!! I ordered from three different sights and they all charged me and emailed back a week later saying that it was an error.
How is it possible to have an inventory system that sucks so bad in the computer age?

Maybe they just needed a short term, no-interest loan from your credit card?......Ben
