    A nice long wait.

    Well on March 27th I DROSed my HKP2000 .40 and picked it up on the 6th. Thought I would be all fine and content with it for awhile.

    So yesterday just doing my daily internet gun sightseeing and end up at Turner's site. What do I see on sale in the weekly adds?

    HK USP .45 w/NS for $780, dammit I love the USP's(got a 9 with SS slide) and I love the .45. So this morning I go down and check it out. Next thing I know, I'm telling the salesman, let's do it.

    Now the wait, UUHHGGGG, I still have 12 days left for my 30 day, then 10 after that. This is torture 22 days till she's in my hands.

    I think it can be confirmed that an alien xenomorph is absolutely no match for good ole' Alabama black snake!

      LOL, I feel for you.

      Next time, try looking at the sale forums...
      Private party transfers on handguns are exempt from the 30 day wait.

      Congrats on the pending HK USP...

          Not just that, but you started by saying that on April 27 you DROS and picked it up on April 4th.. You almost waited a year

            LMAO,

            Alright alright I'm a day off and thinking we're a month ahead.

            Maybe I shouldn't be handling a firearm.

                  They had a USPc in .40 there also, and I was really liking it. If I didn't have the p2000 already I may have walked out with that instead. It's just the P2000 and the USPc are so alike. That's the only reason I didn't go that route.

                    Thats a good deal for the 45 w/ns, nice find. The USPs are so nice, I would love to do a side by side comparison w/my 220 someday.

                      Wonder how long they're gonna be on sale? DAh...I think I'm into August already. I picked up a P-14 Saturday that's going to Jim Hoag. Got a p-16 on order. Was looking at the Kimber 10mm at Turners the other day. Lifes a bitch when you have no self control.

                        The salesman told me until Thursday. This is the best price I've seen for a USP45 with nightsights. Pretty good deal IMO.

                          That's why I jumped on it. I thought it was a nice deal, yeah they can be had for a little cheaper out of State, but once you factor in shipping+FFL fees, this was still cheaper.

                          And yes it ends the 17th.
