Good deal. I have some friends over on the Radford side as well. It will be an all-hokie affair at this little get together. My friend is on the VT/RU Army staff actually but is going to be a Virginia Tech graduate. I'm Marine ROTC here at Tech but I've got another year before my commissioning (and a fun little jaunt at summer camp--OCS style). We'll actually be out in the Radford area this weekend (Radford Army Ammunition Plant) for our field training.

Anyway, I digress. Thanks for the responses.

I'm leaning Oliva G, but I'll look into all of the choices listed. Perdomos, Padrons, and Upmanns are particularly intriguing. I'm leaning away from the SPDMs just because I haven't had one personally. I'd like to be able to vouch for whatever I buy.
