Thanks . Had I stuck with B*****H it would have been delivered for $386 (yup, that's how ticked off I was to cancel a deal like that) but with Black Friday around the corner, I think I'll wait and see about super sales. I do believe my next gun will be one of these or a G19 - pretty much whichever one I find a better deal on.

Just shows that some businesses believe their low prices allow them a free pass on good customer service.

It was advertised on Slickguns as including shipping. When I (finally) got a real person on the phone and asked them to honor it they wouldn't. I even suggested a credit of $25 (S&H) toward a future purchase and they weren't interested - just not the way to do business in my book.

Moreover, their communication SUCKS ... a true example of you get what you pay for. My voicemail, email and online help queries were all ignored - I had to basically "tele-stalk" them throughout the day to finally get through to a CSR.

Maybe I'm a little too principled for my own good and essentially cut off my nose to spite my face over the $25 but c'mon - honor the deal that brought me to your doorstep ... misprint or not.

I agree, the IMHO the only pistols you need to have a safety on are SA's, especially those with light triggers. All of my 1911's are tuned to about 3.5 lbs but I don't carry them, they are range/comp guns. My carry guns are DAO with no safeties, nothing to get in the way or confuse things.

Wait a minute Matt....the M&P was only $386 delivered????,,

Dude, I paid around $550 otd for mine. You need to learn to relax on the principles.

You did not say what the price was when we discussed this the other day.

Wish I could buy an M&P for less that $400.
Insert bad words here

Good luck finding another price like that! Happy hunting.

My wallet has a meeting scheduled with my principles today to discuss
