Um....I'm a little embarrassed. Make that a lot.
I did it again. All I can say, is at least it's guns and not trikes. :D Yes, I traded again. Still a 45, and a Glock, just went with another model--a 30S. Thank goodness the gun shop guy was understanding. I paid $50 boot, but it coulda been a lot worse. Traded the full size 21 in for it. This is soooo much lighter and more concealable. Not a pocket gun, but darn near it. I'm finished now because I'm out of money. :qpnmt:
Oh...I've still got the 42.

[QUOTE=FuzzyWuzHe;348883]You ever get the tank lift installed? How'd it go?[/QUOTE]
Yes, and it was fairly easy. I had more than half a tank in it when I did, and that was the only thing that made it harder. But, I got it on and damaged nothing...I call that a win!
I meant to PM you and forgot.

Seriously Scott, you need help. The next time you want to trade just mail me the gun and I'll keep it for you for awhile till you feel better, especially if it is the 42.

If I mail it, I'll be in my own pokie. You'll have to come get it

No new gun acquisitions to report. :laugh:

Took both guns to my brother-in-law's house (no, I didn't shoot him). We put about 50 rounds through the G30S and about 40 rounds through the G42. I'm much more accurate with the 30 (shocker) than with the 42. But if I can work a little on my control and breathing, I'll get much better with both.
Towards the end, when I was getting a little better, the 30 was putting rounds consistently to the left of where I was aiming. I was getting good groups, just to the left. That's something that can be easily fixed if I can find somebody with a sight pusher.

Forgot to say--I bought an extra mag for the 42. Used it first when shooting at the in-laws. Jammed up with every shot. Got to the point on the third shot, I just about wasn't able to un-jam it. Immediately tried the other mags that came with the gun and it shot perfectly. So, I guess I'll try to take it back to the store I bought it from to see what they can do about it. Probably nothing, and I'll have to send it to Glock. Just an extra postage cost on top of buying the thing. That'll be my luck I'm sure.
Sorry guys and gal...I don't mean to turn this thread into "Scott's gun blog".

Haven't heard from Steve in quite a while. Bet he's getting antsy for his trike. Wonder if his chromed wheel has come back yet?

Different brands of ammo have different points of impact. Just make sure to do final sight adjustments with your carry ammo.

The offer still stands for the 42 coming to me since you are having problems. Seems strange to only be the one mag with the problem.

It's one of the first mags that came out with the 42. There was a design flaw. Any mag with the designation '01' is not good. The other two that didn't have a problem were marked '03'.

Oh, yeah...as part of 'Scott's gun blog' tonight, my magazine extensions came in the mail today. Look back and the last pic of the 30S and look at this one and see if you notice any difference. I can surely feel a difference.

Okay I'm here. My chrome wheel shipped yesterday. Due to arrive next week. There was a delay on my trike conversion because of a paint booth permit failure. All is good now. They paint and assemble it next week.
I noticed you mentioned about mailing guns. I have a legal way to ship them without an FFL dealer being involved. Post Office is a no-no, no matter what you do.
First just take it apart and pack it in two separate boxes. Then ship FedEx or UPS listing them as gun parts. You can ask and I have done it plenty of times.
