You need a nice Sig P226 to put you on the right path..

I have a Glock 26 and an M&P9 that would have to go first.

Or would they...

Yep, they would need to go so you can get a P229 in .40 S&W, and a P220 in .45 ACP.

Then, your life will be complete. Amen.

Good Call.

I just looked up a bunch of info on them - they look great and look to be quality firearms based on early reviews.

I really like the fact that as a non-restricted firearm you can actually take it out and shoot it somewhere else other than at the range. To me, that's the fun part about owning a centerfire semi.

I want one.

Where can you pre-order?

Best part is they used DPMS style parts for the most part so aftermarket support is pretty big. A few guys have already swapped from .308 to 6.5 Creedmore.

The only thing it needs out of the box is a new trigger. I bought a triggertech.

You can sign up for in stock notifications at SFRC (ammosource.com) so when they have the 3rd Pre sale you can get in on it.

I just purchased a pack of Nagaraya Japanese garlic cracker nuts while filling up the truck .... does that count as an impulse purchase?

Kind of weird and odd when you first try them, but you want more and kind of like it after you try it ........ sort of like other deviant indulgences I guess. lol.

I don't think I've ever heard the words Best and DPMS in the same sentence. Couldn't pay me to own a DPMS sorry....

It’s not the company DPMS, it’s pattern and the way everything goes together.

There’s DPMS and Armalite, the DPMS pattern has way more companies that make aftermarket parts.

Are we talking ar15s or ar10s? Yes the 10s are slightly different but the 15s are fairly standardized.

That's darn close to the Light my Fire knife but I suspect yours has a thicker blade. I scooped one of the Light my Fire's on sale about a month ago when Canuckistan Tire was blowing them out for $19.97. They're made of Sandvik 12C27 steel to boot!

I bought a house once on an impulse. It was a new build so I only saw the lot and the blueprints. The sales lady just happened to be very attractive. In my defence, I was looking for a house and it was only 169K. 26 Cimarron Meadows Way was the place.
