Will he have to pay that?

I know the bid has been placed but surely someone will notice its a mistake

Brian I use a Galco king tuk for my iWB I no longer carry in my back cant sit and it pull my britches down :r

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

They won't receive the $300k for it. I think some sellers have created additional ID's to drive up price and traffic because of how much it results in this kind of advertising. Happens on ebay all the time with buyers with low/zero feedback. Seller reports non-paying bidder to avoid fees and no real harm to seller than an unsold item and maybe the "buyer" gets suspended.

If you check local prices, they're still being listed at $1200-$1500 on a daily basis.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Actually the local shops here have tripled prices on complete AR-15s and stripped lowers are selling for about 4-5x their normal price. Insane. I did sell 3 Pmags the other day for $33 each though :D

I used to.

+1 for the custon kydex option. I don't know PJs, but I'm sure its good.
If you can find one local, thats even better. There's a guy that does it at my area gun show, does good work. Thing I like about the custom work when its local is that they'll mold it to your gun exact. so in the case of my 1911 which had an oversized safety lever, it still fit the holster like a glove.

I don't like the feel of all leather holsters very much... With all that said, if I did it again, for small of the back carry (only place a 1911 will fit for me), I would probably give an ADJUSTABLE leather/kydex hybrid try, with the idea that it would still have the better comfort of leather (my #1 complaint about kydex), but still have the super smooth and easy draw of the kydex. Something like the Tuck It. http://www.2ndamendmentstuff.com/The...he-Tuck-it.htm

In the end, I found it was more comfortable to carry a diamondback DB9 (6+1 9mm) on my side, in a kydex hoster.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I was at the gun show yesterday. One guy had a bucket load of pmags and was selling them for $35/ea. No pmags anywhere else to be found. Troy battlemags for $30 from a few people. very few mags in any other persuasion...

One vender had a few AR's left. I didn't ask about the price (not marked, never a good sign!)
On average, prices were doubled. basic DPMS ARs were selling for $1700.

Saw one guy with a few stripped lowers, selling em for $300/ea.
If there's still one there today, I might pick it up. Yeah, its pricy. But it's also IN MY HAND.

I think I've generally concluded that anything that doesn't arrive in my hand before mid Feb. is at risk of not showing up. But that's just a guess... I just don't know how fast they can pass this thing. Took em almost 5 years last time, but there's no guarantee it won't go faster this time.

Many of the major manufacturers are no longer taking orders for the entire year of 2013, they're telling they're telling distributors that the production line is maxed for the whole year. no more orders.
In the case of something like pmags, I'm not worried, those will get made. In the case of something like already long lead time AR's from smaller shops, I don't think those will ever materialize.

BUT ALL JUST GUESSING OUT MY ASS AT THIS POINT! NO ONE KNOWS!

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Anyone carried both auto and revolver as a CCW? I'd like some feedback as to both. I've been leaning to a Beretta Nano or Ruger .357. But I'd like some pros and cons on both style of weapons.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Finally snapped a couple pics of the new Kimber with my phone.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

from a fellow ultra carry user, that is sexy :tu

Which model did you get?

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Nice! Love me some Kimbers!

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Anyone know of a decent concealed carry holster that will accomodate a sub-compact with a light on the under rail?

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

It's the Eclipse Pro II. I looked at the ultra and pro carry as well, I liked the way the 4" models fit my hands better and the eclipse had night sights already installed for way less than it would cost me to buy and install a set on the pro carry.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Very nice. I ended up adding night sights to mine (although it's getting a little old now, I might have to replace em in a few years). For me, overall height was important. I would haply take a 4" barrel combined with the grip of the 3" models. But I have very SMALL hands. Even with the 3", it shoots plenty accurate at shrot-medium ranges.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

I came across this in my search for a holster. They were recommended in a thread on a 1911 forum I was browsing.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Found one of these locally today, I like that I can adjust the clips to adjust the cant. I've moved away from SOB, read too many stories about guys ending up in the hospital after falling on their weapon.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Thanks Brian. That's what I was looking for.

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

Ok guys I think it's settled. I think I want the Kahr CW45. Smaller than a 1911 but still 45ACP and cheaper than the XD-S :tu

Re: First Firearm Thread.
 

just make sure you shoot it first :)
years ago I was considering carry guns and tried the kahr 9mm once and HATED it. nothing wrong with the gun, just didn't work for MY hand. Nothing like a hands on demo :tu

When it comes to guns, wiser words cannot be spoken.
Heck, come to think of it, same applies to breasts.:r
