Did you check Sarge43's Grips?????

I walked into my LGS and they had one left. I traded six guns I don't use anymore for it. I came out on the short end in the long run, but I have something I'll cherish and shoot a lot more than the six I traded.

I've been looking at his grips. Very nice. I'm just deciding what exactly I want. I like Ivory, but that would be a while before I can afford those. I was thinking maybe something scrimshawed, or just go with a beautiful exotic wood. I can go either way and be happy (just on the grips, guys don't get carried away ).

Yeah, I heard that this morning. Over on the land Shooters forum, that's all they can talk about. A thread started this morning, and is over 30 pages already, last I check at about 4:30pm. It's just a first stage, but it looks very promising. I'm thinking of going to the MD State Police for fingerprinting and applying before they can get a stay pending appeal. Talk is, they may not get the appeal anyways. We'll see. It looks promising though.

A lot of guys are starting to apply. There is some confusion as to submitting fingerprints and such. New rules that went into effect on March 1. I think I'll wait a little and see how it goes. If guys start getting permits, I'm the next guy in line!
