Why? WHY???
I've been watching the new polymer pistol offering from Beretta for quite some time now. I waited patiently for it to go into production, and then be available for gov't contract only for MONTHS. Then, I saw it go public. I rushed over to Sportsman's Warehouse to hold one (in 9x19), and it felt like it was custom made for my hand. I KNEW I had to have one.
Then I had to wait again. Them things ain't exactly cheap (not real expensive, either, but 500 bucks is 500 bucks, and when you ain't got it, you ain't got it), so I got to look at it every time I was in a gunstore or outdoor outfitter. Finally, the gods granted me fortune (my Crimmus bonus is coming here soon), so I thought that it was finally my time!
Imagine my dismay when I learned that NO FRIGGIN BODY HAS ONE. I've called every place I know of to buy firearms. Sportsman's Warehouse has the only one in town right now, and it's in .40.
Now I get to continue waiting. I'm on their wishlist. Everyone else will be happy to order one for me at 50-100 dollars MORE, plus a bloody FFL x-fer fee.:banghead:
Lovely.
