    A First for Me Today: Fired a Glock

    I know that my Glock17 never failed once in 8 years that I owned it. The little 26 had just a few hiccups over the years. They do what they are supposed to do. But I will say I actually preffered my SD to the Glock. This maybe an unfair comparison, because the Glock 19 is probably closer to the...

    What's your most recent firearm purchase, and why did you buy it?

    Victory 22 today. I have been wanting a target .22 for a while now. I had been set on a Buckmark forever. But after all the reviews on the new Victory, and holding both at the LGS. I was sold.

    Comcast/Xfinity Rant

    You need customer service to get you in touch with someone else. Do not take no for an answer. If the techs messed up the signal and you lost channels that you were paying for, then they should not have ever charged you for the service call. Tell them you will call the BBB and your local...

    Anybody see this Academy listing?

    The slide on mine is just marked SD40, however the box clearly says SD40VE. So whatever it is. I'm very happy with it. I will try to post pictures when I get a chance to. Sent from my RCT6773W22B using Tapatalk

    Anybody see this Academy listing?

    I just bought a SD 40VE at Academy. Complete with the black slide and HI VIZ sights for $309 about 2 weeks ago. I noticed that the price has gone back up to $349 this week. I loved this gun it is replacing a G17. It feels better in my hand than the 17 ever did. Now I'm trying to decide between...
