Thanks for the replys, theres a range nearby that rents pistols and I'll definitely do that before I buy one. That and try some of the officers pistols at work. I'm leaning toward the XD but do...

I like the lizard litter and nufinish. Was wondering if anyone uses it with a Thumblers Tumbler.

I went to Petco and bought Lizard Litter and then to Wally World for NuFinish. This stuff works good for me without the expense of the stainless steel. I have a hard time paying as much for that as...

WOW, I really hit a nerve with this one. I didnt say I would never order from them again, I'll watch the sales and when its convenient and cost worthy for me I'll buy from them. That said I...

Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that Midway has gone into the business of making money off of shipping. I started to order 2 screwdriver bits, the notched ones for the Ruger Blackhawk Base...
