This is my Sig 226 Tactical with four 20 round mags in 9mm. Nitron finish with the SigLight night sights that I picked up earlier this year.

I finally shot my new Beretta 92FS Stainless today, and I love it. Even my wife was able to put 20 rounds center mass from 15 yards. What a great gun.

That is great to hear! It is good to know your wife can be your backup!

Hey I resemble those remarks.

Can't coddle your guns too much, they won't respect you.

That is BS how you have to get a permit first to buy a gun. Get a Glock 20 10mm. They are extremely fun.

Here are some pics of mine. I've since added a P229, 9mm (XMas gift from my wife!

).

Thrak · 01-13-2009, 05:36 AM

Couple more since we're limited to 7 pics...

elderboy02 · 01-13-2009, 06:06 AM

Very nice! I love the Sig with the wood grips.

GTsetGO · 01-13-2009, 06:54 AM

Nice.

I posted mine earlier in the thread, but I have a remington 1100 on order and an ar15 lower on order as well.

floydpink · 01-13-2009, 07:52 AM

Lotta Sig owners here. Those are the Rolls Royces of handguns in my opinion.

I was at the range yesterday and it seems the economy has brought a good amount of them in for resale or something.

I'm trying to resist, but they are just so darn nice.....

elderboy02 · 01-13-2009, 08:00 AM

It looks like everyone is stocking up on guns

For those that don't know, the 4473 form is the form you fill out when you purchase a gun. It is used to run the background check on you.

http://www.atf.gov/firearms/010609at...age-notice.htm

January 6, 2009

Notice to All Federal Firearms Licensees
Regarding ATF Form 4473 Shortage

As a result of an unprecedented increase in demand for ATF Forms 4473 (5300.9) Part I Revised August 2008, inventory of the form at the ATF Distribution Center is running low.

As a temporary measure, ATF is allowing FFLs to photocopy the form 4473 in it’s entirety until they receive their orders from the ATF Distribution Center.

A notice will be posted at the expiration of this temporary authorized change.

floydpink · 01-13-2009, 08:32 AM

The processing on the CCW is apparantly backlogged to almost 4 monts as well...

After a month with my new Kel Tec P11, I found that you need to be an amatuer gunsmith as out of the box, they aren't ready.

I had to polish and dremel the feed ramp and do a fluff and buff inside, smoothing the rail and breechface as there were several burrs and rough spots.

The accessories are on and I put the mag extender, trigger shoe, and the belt clip is the best.

With the belt clip, there is no holster needed and the gun is no more intrusive than a Blackberry and I hardley know it's there...
