Bump!!!!

I managed to track down another Glock 34 Gen 5. Someone on Glocktalk told me about a local shop near them that had one. When I get it, I plan to send it to Taran Tactical for some custom work 

FS in Bryan/College Station area (I'm not that far from Houston).

Black 9mm Beretta APX Centurion handgun with Ameriglo night sights that were purchased and installed by Beretta USA (I got the gun back at the end of Sept 2019 from Beretta with the sights installed)!

The gun has exactly 581 rounds thru it (see exact count below). It has worked 100%!! I am only selling this gun because there is another gun I want to get.

Gun has been carried a handful of times but still looked almost new.

06-14-19   176 Rounds
07-02-19   150 Rounds
10-05-19   150 Rounds
12-14-19   085 Rounds
09-18-20   020 Rounds

TOTAL   581 Rounds

Gun comes with SIX factory 15 round Beretta mags, original case, extra backstraps and original manual!

My price is $410!

Please email me at goldfishpanda@Hotmail.com and the first "I'll take it" with an exchange of information gets it.

FACE TO FACE sales only. You must legally be able to own a handgun!

Yea, after all this covid stuff is up, we can meet up. I haven't even eaten out anywhere since this started, and I rarely go anywhere. I have asthma, so I must be careful.

But yea, I have been making the drive from College Station to San Antonio for almost 4 years now. I am sick of it, but it is where she lives... I hope to get her to move one day. But as a piano teacher, it is hard for her to start over with zero students in a new city.

Yes, Drury on 4-10 looked like it had just opened in the new building when I went there. I drive right by it to get to my girlfriend's place.  And, they have some strange hours. They are not open as much as other gun shops. If I remember right they are closed on Mondays, and only 1/2 a day on Saturdays. Something like that. It's been a while since I was there... But, when I went the 1x, I was disappointed with the selection, and their prices were too high.

Mission Ridge. Wow. They are proud of their prices. Way high too. Although, they have no increased their prices with this gun rush. So now, they seem normal, which is sad in and of itself. And, they have an amazing selection of high end 1911s. I saw one yesterday that I wanted - for $3500! 

Mission Ridge costs a lot more to shoot there compared to the indoor range in College Station. I do not know if they make you buy their ammo, though. They might.... When I saw the range fee 2-3 years ago, I knew I would never shoot there. But, they have awesome stuff to look at. And, their gun rental choice is really amazing.

But, most guns are like $20-$25 to rent. Some are over $30 to rent. It costs $5 to rent a gun where I shoot at! But, Mission Ridge has an impressive selection to choose from. I've never seen such rental selections at a place before. It's like a complete gun store just for the rentals...

However, for rentals, you must use their ammo. By the time you get their ammo, the range fee and the rental fee f a gun you  wanna try... You are looking at $75 to $100, depending on what it is...

That's just crazy. I have rented many guns and saved money - seeing that I did not like it, and it prevented me from buying one... I don't think I'd pay almost $100 to try something, though. I can buy the gun, not like it and sell it - and lose less money than renting one there. But, their building is super expensive. They gotta pay for it some kinda way.

Man, I swung past a gunstore 2-3 times today in San Antonio. It is like a 30 to 60 minute wait, there are so many people outside waiting to get in. I'm not going to stand there that long just to go look and see what they have.

I will be visiting Durys guns shop in SA in a few days. Got the shipping conformation on the Ruger Ranch I ordered. Will see how it looks then.

I have been there 1x. They were very expensive and did not have that much.

I did go to that range/gun store on 1604 today. I forget the name. They have a lots of higher end 1911s.

I have gotten rid of everything but 9mm guns now. Any 45 that is not a 1911 is always too big for my hands. So, I gave up years ago. I will buy a 45, and a few months later, I always see it is not going to work out due to grip size.

I bought a Sig 220 before - it is their DA/SA 45ACP pistol. I did not like it as much because it has much more recoil than a 1911. I was a bit surprised. But, with the higher bore axis and aluminum frame, I should not have been.

You really need a 1911! 

JK Ship! 

Sounds like a keeper. 

I admit that I dont have one now, but I have owned 10 or 11 in the past. My problem is that after owning some high end ones in years past, only ones $2500 or more interest me....

Very cool. Congrats.

New guns are exciting 

It is interesting... Two of my very first handguns were Glocks - got my G17 back in 1993... But, I eventually moved on... Owning a few Glocks here and there over the years - but never really "liking them."

25+ years and 3 digits worth of guns later - I feel like I have owned almost everything at one point in time... Well, I picked up a Glock 48 earlier this year, and that got me appreciating Glocks again.

Then, I bought a 5th Gen G19 last month, and a 5th Gen G34 last week... Both with Ameriglo night sights....

It must be the change to the grip with the 5th Gen, because I really like the way the gun feels in the hands. And, I can appreciate the simplicity of the Glock design. Amazing that they came up with that all those years ago...

Now, I find myself wanting more
