update...
well after trying to obtain the Ruger SR 1911, at the LGS, (and they cannot even get one right now either), i looked at a few other models in the display cases. I saw a Para Ordinance, and a Remington.
the Para Ordinance is not a name i am familiar with, only to be told that Remington owns them now.
but, the Remington was only a few dollars less, and i put money down on that.
sad thing however, is that only today, was i able to finally pick it up, due to our Queen Tyrant Egoistical goobener extended the purchase wait time, from 7 days, to "up to" 30 days..!!
so i got sick and tired of calling the LGS for an update nearly every day, and in fact, i called them just yesterday at about 4 PM, still no background check!!
well, i said screw it.....i went to the LGS this morning......waited in line, (i was the first guy to be in line), and when i went inside, i had said...
"i just was diving by, and figured i'd stop in"...(of course, that was BS)
the guy smiled, and showed me the email he got from the PD that the background check CAME IN at 9 AM TODAY....!!
(the store opens at 10 daily...!!!!)
so much luck, for "just driving on by"....lol
i took it home, stripped it, cleaned/lubed it, for a trip to the range tomorrow morning.....
i still want that Ruger as well, when they become available....
