Just ordered one of those fancy cleaning mats with the gun breakdown on it and a grip plug lol. So excited to finally have a Glock, I've been lusting over these damn things since I was a kid.

Also: GunVault came. This thing is pretty beefy. The buttons could be a little more sensitive, but I'm getting pretty fast at opening it!

congrats on the gunvault. i've had mine for nearly 20 years- great product.

I couldn't find the Glock I bought for any less than $499 new, which is what I paid in the store. I may have gotten to pay lower taxes if I bought from an out of state vendor, but I don't like waiting for stuff lol

Looks like you have a Gen 3. Found this free shipping, just gotta pay the $15 FFL fee. $490 out the door instead of $550 including tax locally. I understand the waiting thing though, haha.

In the description it says it comes with 2. Anyway... I kind of want to pick one of these up as a backup fullsize 9mm. Cheap but from all the reviews I've seen it's a really good value. I'm a S&W guy I guess. :D

Nice Greg! I love mine.. great gun!

I have yet to go to Shooters World...

I always check Slickguns to see what the cheapest deals are and then i ship to Quentin Defense because they have the cheapest transfer fee i have come across without being a member of a range or something.

What is their fee? The cheapest I've found is The Gun Depot on University and Power, $15 cash. http://thegundepot.com/

I quickly got tired of owning a 9mm last year. Ammo was near impossible to find and from what I've seen lately it still is. This may be different in other states, but I've always had a better time finding .40 and .45

[TeXJ]

for finding ammo, I use the Walmart app, got 1500rds of 22 this morning by using it

[accident]

The Walmarts here couldn't keep the shit on the shelf. Only the oddball stuff like 17HMR was readily available. There were people that would wait at stores for the shipment to come in and then ravage it, buying it all up and putting it on backpage for 2-3 times what they paid for it.

40 is almost always readily available around here. 22 is hardest to find but still possible if your patient. 9mm is the next hardest to get but is usually in stock 4-5 days a week at walmart. There is always expensive 9mm self defense ammo available but I'm spending $1 a round for target practice. 223/5.56 is over stocked at most places and is being reduced in price to get rid of some inventory. Cabelas has one shelf in a whole isle stocked with it, and 6 ft of shelf filled top to bottom with American eagle.

Reloading supplies are readily available except powder locally.

whats this ammo app called??

Luckily i was stacked pretty deep and avoided all this nonsense! now i just pick it up when i find it at good prices.

reloading supplies are still tough on powder. Primers are about $4 more per 1,000. which pisses me off but whatever. I was able to squeeze a 20# order of powder in the day after Sandy Hook and i got lucky.

One of the gun shops I went to yesterday had some clearance .40 in both JHP and FMJ, so it sounds like our .40 situation is a little better than yours. It's been a VERY long time since I've seen anything other than 17HMR and other oddball shit at Walmart too. They tend to have 12 gauge target stuff in stock, as well as .223, but other than that their ammo cabinets are usually bare. In fact a lot of the Walmarts I've been to lately have been using them to stock the more expensive knives.
