Cool.
Now makes sense.

Have a look at the PM/CM series from Kahr. A little shorter front to back and top to bottom than the CW lines.

Yeh i had a CM9 at one point. I'll most likely go back there once I sell this

Not a huge fan of the .380 acp (see my last post just above for some proof of that

) but it definitely has its place.

I have the Sig P238 and I love it as a BUG front pocket carry. I have the old single safety.

I used to have an old colt mustang 380, same general design as the Sig. LOVED the feel of that gun. Always wished they made it in a 9mm, I'd buy in a heartbeat.

What's your opinion of polymer lowers?

Never had one. For a range gun or a .22 then it'd be great I'm sure. For a go to war gun maybe not so much. That said, something's better than nothing. Could always use it til u find a alum one

Good point. I'm to the point now that I at least want to get a lower since the only people that have any complete rifles in stock are shops that are pricing them at twice the MSRP

emopunker2004 · 02-07-2013, 09:01 PM

Looks like I may have my pistol sold. Find out tomorrow

emopunker2004 · 02-07-2013, 09:39 PM

Looks like I have my pistol sold. I googled the guys name and seems he is a higher up at a mortgage company in the tampa area. Supposed to be meeting me about 1pm tomorrow.

spectrrr · 02-07-2013, 10:28 PM

Awesome, always nice to get that stuff sold quickly

emopunker2004 · 02-07-2013, 10:35 PM

Yup. Ill use some of the money toward something smaller, maybe a 380 for pocket carry, then put the left over toward my ar, shotgun or smokes

spectrrr · 02-07-2013, 10:38 PM

Just finally got around to taking pictures of my SKS.... maybe sometime in the next day or so I'll write up a description and actually post the thing for sale

So much for that DTI lower.
Got the dreaded "sorry to cancel your order but our computer error..........."
Oh well.

spectrrr · 02-08-2013, 11:02 AM

*DOH* .... so close! I wouldn't sweat it... prices should be coming down a bit. Supply won't increase, they're already at max production... but prices should come down as people stop panicking and stop buying at the higher prices... And that guy who picked up 15 lowers last month, "just in case" is going to have 14 of them for sale soon

True.
Was considering ordering a Phase 5.
Anyone know anything about them?
Looks nice and at $149, just an 8-12 week wait but don't see that as an issue as not in rush.

Blueface · 02-08-2013, 11:25 AM

Woohoo.
Scored two Rock River lowers in stock from PK.

emopunker2004 · 02-08-2013, 12:06 PM
