New addition...
« on: January 14, 2012, 07:10:23 AM »
Thanks to my old roommate bailing and dumping his half of the rent on me a couple months ago, i have been handgun-less for a while.  (Btw, thanks to the member that bought my PK380, you have no idea how much that helped me) Anywho, I made the mistake of going into Thunder Alley last night with money in my wallet.

Walked out with this,


Ruger LC9

First Impression:
LONG trigger
Low recoil for a 9mm with a short barrel
Action is smooth, easy target re-aquisition.
Light and slim

Definitely going to take a little getting used to.

Nice, that would make a good carry gun.

Thunder alley opens at noon.  Thinking maybe 1pm.  Gonna go buy some ammo at Scheels, they have cheap Federal 9mm for about $13/ box of 50.  Plus I need some .22.

I like that lil .22 (I like old guns)  It's different and simple. H&R built some cool stuff.

Sorry, I didn't see this until now.  Spent the day in the garage turning large pieces of metal into smaller pieces of metal.
