    Been sitting with a Shield Plus in my cart all night over at GrabaGun. They have them for $499, which seems like a good price, even with the shipping and FFL fee added on. I don't really need one, but when has that ever stopped me? :):

    But do you want one? Sometimes I'll buy something because it's a good price and then realize it wasn't what I really wanted. *coughSAR9cough*

    I do. I kick myself for selling my old Shield 1.0 that I'd carried for a couple of years. Though to be honest the improvements on the Shield Plus make it worthwhile. 13+1 rounds in that size package is pretty compelling. I usually carry a compact size handgun, but there are times when a smaller gun would come in handy. The only thing I have that fits that criteria at this time is an LCP II and I really don't feel comfortable with the caliber, or how small the gun is.

    Then go for it. :yesway: I actually had a shield that I let go several years ago. Nice gun.

    I struggle with quality over quantity. Whether it's clothing or guns or whatever, I often buy the cheapest instead of what I really want. I'll buy ten $5 shirts that I won't end up wearing before I'll buy one $50 shirt I love. I had a thrifty upbringing, and it's a hard habit to break.

    Some things I'm very thrifty about and some things I splurge on. I would buy the gun right away, but I have things I need to do around the house that are likely to be costly, so I'm trying to be an adult and put that ahead of buying yet another gun... :(

    Yeah, it's a juggling act, but if it's something you want and the price is good, sometimes you have to strike while the iron is hot.

    Agreed, CM. I worked hard for 30 years and saved my pennies so that my retirement would be comfortable. I am starting to learn to treat myself, even if it's baby steps.

    Speaking of treating yourself, I bought the most awesome t-shirt from We the People Holsters and needed to spend a bit more to get free shipping. Decided to try their bacon jerky. It is ridiculously good. I tried the applewood and the maple.

    Thrifty sounds so much nicer than what I get called. :)

    Hmmmm... and I think I've bought something from them in the past, even though I don't recall what it was. The only thing that makes me lean towards GaG is that they are a known factor. I know it'll ship quickly and I'll get a notification, where it's up in the air from most other sites.

    GM all. Busy morning at the CC.

    Did manage to order a 3-pack of 10-rd 10/22 mags on sale at PA for sub $45with shipping. In all my reading last night the mag/feed problem in 93's is quite common. No aftermarket support, only "bend feedlips" fixes. I may go the way of 1-shot conversion....calling those that recently upgraded. Who did you get those from?

    GM all. More projects around the house for today.

    I have A LOT of brass from the SGE. If I play my cards right, I'll have time this evening to prep.
