Please Talk Me Down From The Leadge

[Mike45]

Well the big boss o.k'd a new gun purchase so looks like I am going to move forward with buying something.

We just got back from one of the 6 gun stores that are within 5 miles of our house (Just gotta LOVE Texas ) and we looked at a couple of Colt Defenders one New Agent in 9mm and a standard Defender in 45 ACP.

I wish I could handle the STI Escort.

I do not think I am willing to wait for the DW ECO but I may look at the CCO.

I can not get the gun until next weekend at the earliest so I have a bit of time to decide.

Hey Mike does the CCO have a ramped barrel like my 9mm Guardian?

That is the one thing I do not like about the Colt, aluminum alloy frame but no ramped barrel.

Getting close o talking me into this Mike.

But being a dedicated American consumer and needing instant gratification I am not sure that I can find a CCO locally. I really like to give one of the shops here my business as I am always in there drooling all over their case. I asked them specifically if they could get a CCO and they said that their distributor did not have one. I may take a second run on them on Monday.

By the way Mike I think that I drove through your town when I was covering West Texas I use to drive from Houston to I-20 via Highway 6 and then on to Sweetwater. I must have drove that road some 20 times over a 1 and 1/2 year period of time.
