I think you'll be happy--its a good value at its pricepoint. Mind you, I have Walthers, Masuers, Sigs, (and a Mak) all in 380; I carry the Bersa so I don't have to worry about loss of a more expensive gun. Its reliable and lightweight.

Let me provide some updates on gift tax limits so folks have the right numbers to consider as they consider trusts--the current Federal gift tax exemption is now $13,000 per year per person/entity. (A typical revocable trusts is linked to the grantor's own SSN if you establish a trust account...

my last order w/ them took 13 weeks.

Let me suggest a broader perspective. Timmy4, we bring up the 2nd amendment because it is one of the 10 amendments that make up the Bill of Rights. Its not the Bills of Rights--its one Bill of Rights. When we let one right become unduly infringed upon, we really let the entire Bill of Rights...

For JohnBT: There is a presumption of competency for any veteran; the system's burden is to prove incompetency. As a tactic, I have my clients provide evidence as to competency and submit same--to show the VA they have a fight on their hand and to make it even harder for VA to overcome the...

Let me offer that in my local jurisdiction, wearing body armor is sufficient PC to initiate a field interview by local LEOs. Take the code words out of all of that and it means that you have drawn attention to yourself by the cops. If you simply don the armor at the range, it may not be an...

There are appeal rights to a VA decision. The VA has to 1st give notice of its intent to find someone incompetent; the vet can then disagree and/or provide evidence supporting competency an dask for a hearing. Usually, if a vet demonstrates to the VA there's going to have to be a substantive...

Only certain High Powers qualify for exclusion from AOW considerations. I don't have the ATF reg right at hand, but Inglis High powers made under Chinese contract w/ the original wooden stock are part of that group.

A mental health failure on a NICS check does not only involve forced institutionalization; an adjudication alone (by a court or agency) in that regard can trigger NICS reporting provisions.

The exception language is pretty clear--VA can make an adjudication that a vet is mentally incompetent, and if that adjudication is not overturned or the vet hasn't completed treatment or satisfactorily resolved his mental issue (to the VA's satisfaction), the vet is in a prohibited category...

IMHO, the Auto Nine 22 LR was the finest .22 LR semi-auto ever made--very ccurate and very concealable. Mine is very reliable. They can still be found from time to time.

VA can make a determination that a veteran is incompetent and they do it all the time. That determination has the authority of a Federal adjudication as it is being done under established procedures of a Federal agency--it is a functionally the same as a board process. Further, VA is required...

Sam Andrews--great quality.

Will need close-up pics of markings on frame and slide, both sides. With GI guns, it really matters.

ash--lighter than maple or hickory; very tough (meaning ability to resist breakage)
