Definitely ecstatic I was able to pick this up. The Kimber only cost me 700 and I just turned a Kimber into a Colt! Thats a good trick to master.
I wont knock the Kimber either, its accurate as hell and this ones never jammed on me. (Guess you have to shoot it to make it jam)
Im more of a collector these days...work keeps me plenty occupied but when I do have that free weekend to go camp and shoot? Its going to be nice to shoot nothing but Colts.
My buddy owns a local pawn shop and he shows me the pistols he cant sell me. Makes me Sick! Yet I wouldn't be so quick to say Living in Texas is Blessed :)

"Whats the use of having all the guns you want, when a torneyder is gonna pick em all up and scatter them all over the County at some point" ?

All kidding aside... when our state finally takes all our guns away were counting on all you Texan's to regulate since you have all the fire power!
Nice pick up on the 380. Heck it just has a little character to it. Enjoy and thanks for sharing. Dennis

I do have to be reminded that there is more of TX outside of Dallas. I worked @Texas Instruments very briefly and from their perspective there was nothing outside DFW :D
From the news reports we get here it sure seems like no where is safe! Scary stuff. I'll take our earthquakes anyday.

Pythons, if I lived in Texas Id be grabbing Blued Pythons.
I'm not trying to hijack your tread, but I have read where there in California they are either trying to pass or just passed a bill that any more guns before they can come into your state MUST have a micro chip. And they are making it harder also for you to be able to get ammo. I'm sorry I know for the most part we are all very proud of our states. But there is just no way I could deal with these issues. Therefore, I say get what you can while you can because if this information is the case we all know the prices will start to climb upwards. Good luck. Sorry for the rant. I feel for yall out there.

I'm glad you were able to get the Colt. They are great little guns. I do think that all quality guns will really start to go up in value when the market in your state realizes that what is here is pretty much all that we will have. I do not understand all the madness we have going on in our beloved country. I read also at the same time that ammo was going to be a real pain in the rear to obtain there also. What is up with that? I wish all of you out there good luck. Keep you powder dry, and your guns oiled. Dennis

Ive been reading up and folks mention that a lot of these pistols do have a little slide fit issue which is attributed
to the MFG not over use. The wiggle supposedly keeps the gun reelable because crud wont jam up the action as much.
I dont know, I like a tight pistol in my hand. I'll have it looked at..after I try to shoot it today :)

Have a good humpday all!
Hey SF, please let us know a range report. Thanks. Dennis
