Howdy...
Just dropped in to say 'hi' and see what's going on. I see nothing
much has changed. like soap opera's you can quit watching them for 6 mo. and still pick back up on them and not miss a beat. The same drama continues. Wayne, those are beautiful pics of your Caribbean cruise. I enjoy following your travels. Hope the 'ol "Fatboy" is holding in there, BTW I have another 320 set aside for you 'just in case'. And ...something else you might be interested in when you return to home port. Glad you could find parts for your generator, especially way 'down there' Cal Bill, nice boating post. That's awesome. Great travel log. John, enjoy your Sig. 250. Those are a good gun.Polymer bodied guns are a bit light for my taste, but that;s alright. But then again, I'm used to shooting ,45 govt,'s and 44 and ,357 steel framed revolvers. But my small frame Feg' Hungarian 9mm Mak. has an aluminum frame and that's light enough for me. Still an accurate little weapon for what it is, that is, when you finally get used to the snap of the recoil. Anyhow, I'll still be checking in occasionally, but I'm not gonna live in here like I used to. Until another time. Later. Tim |

You shouldn't have a gun then, too stupid. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alloy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymer You saw that, too, eh? :) |
Speaking of polymer ...
I had looked at a S&W BG 380 "Bodyguard" at my favorite gun shop a couple of weeks ago. It's small - classified as a "pocket" pistol - and has a polymer body. I had heard and read some good reviews but at the time I decided that it was just *too* small for my hand. But then I tried one at the range. A friend had purchased one as his primary "carry" gun. I was really surprised at how comfortable it was to shoot and, for a very lightweight pistol shooting 380 rounds, the recoil was far less than what I expected. So, I got one. It's ideal as a concealed carry if you are into that. Really don't need a holster. Just stick it in your pants pocket and after a while you forget it's even there. I like the fact that the trigger is not exposed, so it can't catch on anything. The trigger pull is long which takes some getting used to but again I see that as an additional safety factor for a pistol you can carry in your pocket. Has a safety and a built-in laser. I like it. My Walther feels like a lead weight compared to it. I was going to check out the Ruger LCP .380 as well but thanks to our goofy and often conflicting governing agencies in this state, it is not MA compliant. I think they put the serial number in an offending place or something. |
