If you ever get over to this part of the state, we'll meet up and you can shoot mine! For the money, I think they are had to beat compared to other compact .380s. That being said, it's off the rotation. I rotate between the Max-9 and the LCP Max. Both are lighter and easy to carry.

The P64, is really an almost direct copy of the Walther PP. Classic pistol design! But 9x18 MAK has to kick like a mule in that pistol!!! Call me a whimp, but .380ACP out of my Walther PPK/s is painful after about 2 mags... The commie pistol I'd like to pick up is the Czech VZ50 or VZ70 in .32ACP (both Walther clones). Now that would be a comfortable caliber to shoot in that type of pistol!!!

Used Cheetahs are bring that now. As for MSRP, you can probably count on it being around $100 less, once it hits the stores for a bit. I think Beretta is seeing how successful FN and SA have been with the re-interduction of the Hi-Power name and design and looking to capitalize on the name of the Cheetah. I have a Turkish made clone of the Beretta 84 Cheetah, called the BR380 Fatih. I actually, love shooting this pistol and carried it quite often before I picked up my Ruger MAX-9. Now it resides next to my chair in the living room. I enjoy shooting it far more than my Walther PPK/s, which after a couple of magazines, I find painful to shoot.

The 856 is getting a lot of good reviews and honestly this may be the most innovative thing in revolvers in a long time! I'm watching with a lot of interest. So are the other revolver companies, I'm sure!

A cheap alternative is speaker magnets. Just go to a thrift store and buy some cheap speakers. Take the magnets out. Put some high strength double faced tape on one side and stick where the sun don’t shine to hide your pistol.

It pays to be armed at all times.

Snaveba, I think you have a problem and I also think I'm very jealous!!!

I bought a used one at my local LGS. without the Glock mag adapter and paid $550 out the door about a month ago. The Glock Mag adapter was another $34 from Ruger. Love mine! You did very well!!!
-
That was an excellent price!!! Congratulations on the buy!

I quit wearing watches a couple of decades ago. About three years ago, I started having an hankering for one again. We do a lot of antique and thrift store shopping for my wife's craft business. We happened to be in Bargain Hunters over on Chapman Hwy, not long after and I spotted an Armitron Sport watch that was gray and orange (Great UT colors) for $10. I bought it and have been wearing ever since. No clue how old it is, but after three years, I still haven't replaced the battery!!! I consider it to be a fantastic buy!!!

New old school! I love it. Actually, would not mind at all to add an A2 and even an A1 to my collection. During Desert Storm. I deployed with a what I'd call a hybrid. It was an A1 with the round A2 handguards and A2 heavy barrel, but with an A1 receiver. When we deployed through Ft. Bragg, they took all our old A1s and repaired and upgraded them. Amazingly enough, they did that in a matter of two or three weeks. I thought that was phenomenal feat considering we were a battalion of 760 personnel!

I cannot believe this pistol is still here!!! That's a great deal!!!

Fortunately, .380 seems to be available again and also seems to be coming down in price. Hopefully that trend will continue!

The Max-9, with the CT1550, has more than met my expectations, hence it is pretty much my only daily carry now. But every company produces lemons from time to time. Of late, it seems like most companies are have QC issues, even the big name gun manufacturers.

Yes. It's a place for buying and selling online.

I bet I saw that on Gun Owners Club. Had it been closer, I would have attempted a trade. It's a nice looking rifle! Congrats!

2.47 pounds... That'd be like carrying a boat anchor around, compared to most 9mm models on the market now-a-days. Even the new M&P Metal 2.0 is only 29oz. Might be fun at the range, but that's an expensive range gun.

You do have to set up a YouTube or Google Account.

Enjoyed his video and actually subscribed to his YouTube channel! He's got some good stuff there.

I have always wanted a Charter Arms Bulldog.44spl, but my daily carry is a Ruger Max-9. with the CT1550 RDS. It's just more practical and unless you reload, the .44spl is expensive to run. But one of these days one of these is going to be mine! And who knows, I might even carry it sometimes! Model # 34431 | Charter Arms (charterfirearms.com)

We are a good ten years OR MORE away from these cars and trucks being practical in this country.

Price? Trades?

Things seem to be going to hell in a handbasket.....

What happened with TVA was they had unscheduled outages at two coal fired plants (old technology) and one gas turbine plant (new technology). I think that I also heard one solar plant had issues too (but I'm not sure of that). When those three plants went offline, then the whole system was on the verge of becoming unstable, hence the rolling blackouts. The two coal fired plants were Bull Run and Cumberland. I'm not sure where the gas plant was. Bull Run has had issues for some time now and is only used on part time basis. It is scheduled to be shut down in 2025. After that, I believe Kingston or Cumberland may be next. Regardless, TVA is going out of the coal business by 2035. They are working hard to bring online more gas plants and solar farms. Right now they were working on expanding the gas turbines at Johnsonville. And more large solar farms are also coming online in the next several years. I think we just had the perfect storm. I also think TVA will learn from this and rethink some of their long-term plans for power generation, -
Tristan is the third son this family has lost in the last four years. I’ll be honest with you all, I’d rather seen this piece of trash walk out with the ammunition and bungee cords he stole, rather than this young man be shot and killed over such trivial stuff. Tristan’s life wasn’t worth the price of that stuff. Law and order be damned.
