    645 Shoulder Holster for a Big Guy

    I find the Galco Miami Classic to be more comfortable than the Bianchi X-16. The Galco harness straps pivot at the spider attachment whereas the Bianchi is riveted tight and does not allow the straps to pivot. The good news is that you can order the Galco spider harness in an extra large size...

    Rejuvenating night sights

    I don't have night sights on my S&W's but when the trijicon tubes faded on a G17 I sent the slide in and specified green front and yellow rears. Came back as requested at no charge!!! Gotta love a company that stands by their products...

    Picked up another 39-2

    Very nice! What could I expect to pay for a mint 39-2 like that?

    We're way beyond Dremel now, Melted & Melonited 4516-1

    Looks stunning! Looking forward to seeing it after you get it back...btw, try some George T Stagg to celebrate its return, your efforts merit it.

    3rd Gen Addiction

    Well the owner of the 1006 that I hoped to buy has had a change of heart. Seems the 3rd Gen addiction had its hooks in deep and he couldn't bring himself to sell. Oh well:(

    3rd Gen Addiction

    Thanks for the suggestion, but I really need to rein in this behavior for a while.

    3rd Gen Addiction

    First it was a lightly used 4006, followed 6 weeks later by a nice 4516-1. Thought I was done, now I am looking at a 1006 with adjustable sights and less 100 rounds through it. Is there a cure? Pics to follow if it follows me home.

    Trijicon Sights

    Another thumbs up for Trijicon..I sent in a slide with out of warranty sights and received it back at no charge! Can't recommend more highly...I went with the green front and yellow rears...works for me.

    4516-1 Mag Source?

    Anyone know of a source for some mags? CDNN has new, black follower mags for $35. Would like to find some a little cheaper if possible...

    4516-1 Pre-purchase Checklist

    I have been carrying a full-size Colt Govt. in a Milt Sparks Versamax 2 for while so I figure the shorter barrel will be more noticeable from a carry perspective than the 2 oz or so of weight savings. Regards, mwmac

    4516-1 Pre-purchase Checklist

    Thanks 18DAI...Did not win the lottery, but I realize I did get a great deal on the 4516-1. Now I need to find some spare mags for it and get to the range.

    4516-1 Pre-purchase Checklist

    Yes, the seller was asking $400, I offered $380 due to no box, and he accepted.

    4516-1 Pre-purchase Checklist

    Well, the 4516-1 followed me home after I parted with $380!! It looks to be in pretty good shape and very lightly used. One of the two magazines (both yellow follower type) appears to have maybe been used once. No box but I am not complaining. Pictured with recently acquired 4006.
