Went back to get some more 9mm at Murdochs for my AZ bud but they were out of the Armscor stuff. They had Tula steel case 9mm for $359/1000 (no tax) so I picked him up a case of that stuff. It was good to see the shelves 3/4 full of various types of ammo ! Although they'll probably never be back down to prices pre-covid.

No S&W 329PD with 300gr bear loads? Shame.

Is that a true matching number sniper?

Ordered another kit for my summer P365. https://tacticaltriggers.com/sig-sauer-p365-trigger-kit/Well, you talked me into it! I just ordered one. I'll let you know when it arrives so I can come up and have you install it for me! It really isn't that difficult, just follow along with their detailed video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sneACYpHzt0The only sometimes frustrating part is the safety lever pin and the sear spring section. It is a real pain if you let the sear spring leg pop out & block the re-insertion of the pin. Watch the video several times so you know what's coming up, and check out the parts map so you know what everything is called. https://www.sigsauer.com/sig-sauer-small-parts-shoppers/p365-parts-pickerYou might also consider first taking the FCU down completely and polishing the trigger bar, the side of the fcu and the top of the safety lever while you're at it. Also polish (CAREFULLY) the sear surface, the striker foot, and the striker safety lock. Plenty of videos on that out there. If you are unsure of anything, PM me with your # and I'll talk you through it. All that said, I can be available for the right bottle of booze... Well it took me a lot more than 5 minutes, but I finally got it done! My FCU looks a lot different than the one in the video, and that one tricky part was a pain! Plus my slide cap is the new style and had to find a different video to figure out how to get it off. After some adjusting (there was NO overtravel and the trigger had to be squeezed hard to get it to break) I accidently put the old slide cap back on and....After taking it apart a couple times and removing the overtravel I'm very happy. Now to go out tomorrow and see how it does at the range!

I installed this, it was so easy that this caveman did it. I was so excited that it worked flawlessly that I put it back in my GHB and didn’t take a pic.. Attachment: 73972D35-8688-43C1-A4A0-8539263FA64A.jpeg

Sorted my 20 year stash of brass, banged primers out of all of the .38 spec and 9mm with a mallet, .38 is in the tumbler. Now to find primers...
