    In a gun store?

    My local gun store owner said the price of ammo is going up, again. So, I suggest you get as much of the good stuff as you can, before your price goes up, and I am sure the owner already knows this, hence the large amount he ordered. I went to Farm & Fleet about a month ago...it was on sale...

    winchester white box jhp(9mm) for defense?

    The 147 SXTs I use are dead-on accurate! They also cost close to $1.00 per round, so you better enjoy them! My local gun store only had two boxes last time I went in there, so I had to buy them both (only 20 rounds per box). I also like the "kick" associated with this round, more so than the...

    Taurus Guns ??

    1911 I went to my local retailer and he has a Taurus 1911 brand new, price $590. OUCH! He said he had one just like that one three months ago...I never got to see that one. But he also said HIS COST went up about $50 in that time, so the OTHER one he had sold for about $540, he said...

    (IL) New Action Alert

    I wrote my District's State Senator (Watson, Republican) and this is what I got in return: Dear George, Thank you for contacting our office regarding SB 1296. I understand your concerns and will not be supporting this legislation in its current form. This bill is not good for business in...

    Taurus Guns ??

    I will stop into my dealer and ask about the 1911. I just don't care for them, sorry. (Just like some people don't care for MY guns in the pics). I just happened up this PT-92SS in his case two weeks ago, and I let it sit there until last week, when I bought it and picked it up this...

    (IL) New Action Alert

    I just sent Sen Watson a nice lengthy e-mail. I will also call, many times. "[email protected]" This sucks! And my local gun dealer was going to make quite a bit of money off me, but there you have it, our crappy state killing off business. Gotta love those Democrats. George

    Taurus PT92...Your Opinion on them

    I just picked up my brand spanking new PT-92 SS AFS from the dealer today. God I love this gun, and I haven't even had a chance to shoot it yet.

    Taurus Guns ??

    I bought a "used" PT111 Mil Pro from my local dealer. Love it! Have only been out twice shooting, but it really like the 147gr personal protection rounds, but they are getting expensive. I just bought a brand new PT-92SS from the same dealer. Great looking and feeling gun. I think the...

    Dick's Policy on Hand Guns,

    We have 2 Wal-Marts where I live. They both carry long guns and all ammo. I live very close (one mile) to a Farm & Fleet (Big R, Tractor Farm Supply, etc.) and they have ammo only. Up until a year ago, if you wanted anything other than shotgun stuff you had to get the salesperson to get into...

    Taurus PT92...Your Opinion on them

    YOU GOT THE STAINLESS PT-92 FOR $290??? Or the Kel-Tec was that price...? Boomer, sorry to be so confusing. I bought the Taurus PT92SS for $500 OTD (stupid tax) and he has one Kel-Tec 380 for $290, standard stuff. I think the BIG GUN is worth that, but I doubt something so small and...

    KelTec P3AT 380 not available lately

    My local shop has one, but he has it marked $290 or something like that. I bought the Taurus PT92SS instead. I will get that Tuesday. Does anybody think the Kel-Tec is worth that price? I am sure I can get it for whomever wants it. George

    Taurus PT92...Your Opinion on them

    Got it... Well, I bought that Taurus PT92SS from my local guy. He does business with me so it is only right I treat him in the same manner. He also has ONE Kel-Tec P 380...tiny and ultra-lightweight gun. I handled it...just not for me. But his price on that is $280-$290. He is not a...

    Taurus PT92...Your Opinion on them

    WOW! Very good advice! I have to convince my wife that buying a gun is NOT, I reapeat NOT, like buying a car...it will not lose value, and we will not have to "take a hit" on it when and if we ever sell it. Right now I only have one gun, but I am now getting into starting my collection...

    Taurus PT92...Your Opinion on them

    DFW?:uhoh: Okay, so now that I know his prices have gone up (box of ammo costs $3.00 more in just 6 months). I also asked about the Kel-Tec...he can't even get anything because they are all on backorder. So, do I buy this "overpriced" Taurus 92SS for $458 or do I hold out for a "better"...
