98Z5V Posted April 15, 2013 Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Jon! You finally picked it up?! When can I shoot it?... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planeflyer21 Posted April 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 Not yet. I was hoping that would push you over the edge. I'm waiting until the "Sportsman's No Sales Tax Sale" in November. They charge for the stainless XDS what the other guys are charging for the black...plus no sales tax!

planeflyer21 Posted April 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2013 That is AWESOME!! Where'd you get it? Now I'll definately have to get the stainless. <laughs> Hope that's coming to the next range day! Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 As luck would have it, YOU JINXED ME. Yep, it's that simple. :fawkdance: Had to be today, too. Of all days. Well, here's how it went down... My old job fucked me. Those assholes managed to think it was okay to with hold 5.1% for Federal Withholding. They thought that was sufficient. I've never paid taxes in my fucking life - always get refunds. Not this year. Damn glad I'm outta that place, because they're shitheads that don't know what they're doing. I owed a shitload of money this year. Knew it two weeks ago when I had the stuff prepared, and I've been "preparing" since then, consolidating money. Today was the day. Today was when I went to the local bank to get everything together, and have some bank checks drawn up. Feed the IRS. Well, I hit the PX here, and I always stop at the gun counter - I've known the guy that runs it, for years. Doesn't matter what I'm in there for, I always stop by, see what they've got, what they think they'll get, and what the ammo situation is. Chit-chat, and maintaining relations, in a way. I never skip them, and they always give me the straight info - and sometimes hold things for me... :)) <thumbsup> So, I gather my checks to send off, then hit the gun counter. Been looking at the Springfields that they never seem to have in stock these days. Maybe they'll get the FDE XD45 as a surprise one day, and I can nail it. My Rem 700 AAC SD came from them, for $610. You never know... So today, I notice, on the bottom rack, that they received a XDm45. Nice! I comment about it... then look at the upper shelf. fornicate me. XDs45. Tag says $544. I'm fucked... I talked to them for a minute, fondled it, checked it out... and told him I'd think about it over the next couple days. I had to walk away from it. But, not so fast there, Tommy... They had 8 of them come in over the last 2 weeks, and he thinks they have the one in the case, plus another. Run the UPC on it to check inventory - NOPE! This is it. They sell fast, he says. Yeah, no poop they do, and I understand it. He tells me I can fill out a slip with name/number, they'll pull it, and can hold it for 24 hours. He'll extend that a little bit for me. I tell him I'll come up with something, and let him know. I proceed to the USPS, next door, mail my contribution to my favorite tax-collecting agency in the world, and REALLY start thinking about it... $544, OTD, no tax, no transfer... What's there to really think about, you know? I went back and bought it. SECOND plastic pistol I've EVER purchased, and THE SAME GUY is the damn instigator. poop! I'll shoot the poop out of it tomorrow or Wednesday. I'll drop this off to you, Jon, on Thursday morning. I'll pick it up from you on Sunday evening. Sometime by Sunday afternoon, you need to find your own... :fawkdance: <laughs> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planeflyer21 Posted April 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Glad I could be of assistance! >:D I have the will power to wait for the stainless on the no tax. Buying truck parts instills that kind of discipline. :banana: Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONTANA308 Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Think my LGS has a stainless in this little beauty I'll check on price tomorrow. Would like one of these for keeping in the pickup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 I hope they have TWO stainless, at great prices, and you find a deal that Jon can't pass up... <thumbsup> >:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONTANA308 Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Lol me too. Just wrote the check for the new Vortex PST so Jon will be first in line unless I come up with some hidden money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Jon, you need one of these things now, brother - it's WAY sexy when it's all nekkid, and poop... <thumbsup> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planeflyer21 Posted April 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 Time to stuff some pills on top of some FAST powder! Keep your fingers out from in front of the muzzle. November...no tax. Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 You keep "hanging on," brother. You'll have this thing to yourself - as many rounds as you can feed it - all long-weekend long. It's all yours, and I'm dropping it off to you. Now, with THAT said... isn't it ironic how your 4:30-in-the-morning thread played out?... Karma will get you, my man. :)) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planeflyer21 Posted April 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 If by "karma" you mean a screamin' no-tax/no-transfer deal, on a .45 Auto smaller than a Walther PP .32, which drops snag-free into a pocket... Bring it on! :banana: Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zebra644 Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Tom have you had a chance to shoot it yet, if so how was it. I am kinda eyeing one of these I own 2 Springfield Armory 1911's 1 champion operator that I carry off duty and full rail TRP Operator. I also own a G-19 but it sits in the safe because my wife shoots it on occasion. I am looking for something a little smaller without paying a crap load for a Springfield Armory EMP or the likes. Of course it will have to wait until after I get my rifle paid off, priorities lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
