The only problem I have with AIM is that they are within driving distance. :)

We saw the pink Glocks at Gander last weekend. The "expert" behind the counter said "it's what women want". My wife told him they didn't look real. He started to talk to her like she didn't know anything. She just held her hand up to stop him and said "I'll stick with my Subcompact...
