Problems? Never had any with mine. I always carry my P365 and runs fine. Fun to mod too.

Hmmmm, "Perfect" - "Strangers"..... I had no idea they were perfect.
Sounds like something Jeff Foxworthy would say.... lol

I paid $46K for my current '19 model. I put $10K into it already and waiting to get a lift kit, new wheels and tires. I turned it into a Raptor for a lot less than a genuine one. Raptors aint cheap these days...Few more toys.... I'm not the only one who rips things apart when they get them. Try going on the various truck forums and check out their bad boys....

Are you going to beat up a $50K truck out on the trails?
Yup.... I'm not one of these people who buy lux trucks just to go grocery shopping...

In today’s dollars both are in the $1,200 range. In other words you payed a lot for them back then.
Wasn't a lot to me. Bought 3 Colts at the same time. If you were working hard, it was a good price to pay for quality. In fact, I got those prices because I bought 3 Colts at the same time. Prices of a lot of guns today are high priced and people will complain. If it's inflation, that's fine. But it's not uncommon for someone to pay $1000-$1500 plus for something of quality. Hell, I have about $10G tied up in 2 Nighthawks... Also, supply and demand play big factors. They use to say, Obama is/was a great gun salesman. Seems all libtards qualify for that now, lol. Now with Covid, manufacturers can't keep up with weapons or ammo.
Here is an article from another forum that I'll quote here courtesy: OP, Ditrina
"I was thumbing through some really old magazines, and found the March 1978 Shooting Times with a cover story on the Colt Python..
Prices shown are adjusted for inflation.. http://smith-wessonforum.com/images/smilies/eek.gifhttp://smith-wessonforum.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif
The list prices from Colt were
6 inch blue $349.00 = $1,329.26 Today
6 inch nickel $369.00 = $1,405.44 Today
4 inch blue $344.00 = $1,310.22 Today
4 inch nickel $364.00 = $1,386.39 Today
2 1/2 inch blue $339.00 = $1,291.18 Today"-

If 2020 Pythons are going for $500 over MSRP why not cough up another $500-$1500 for a an original one?
I’ll never understand the Colt obsession. Yes, the new ones are nice but those old Royal blue Pythons are beautiful but even brand new they were overpriced....like everything else with the Colt name on it.
Over priced? I had both new 6"Blue, $275 and a 4" Nickel, $250 in 1977-8.

I considered it but I already put too much money into my 2019 Ford Ranger and love it.

This educational video has a lot of interesting conceal carry methods that I simply was not aware of. And the fact that I'm old enough to be her Dad.... mind you, my mind was strictly disciplined to the enlightening information of the equipment available to females who are of this particular physical build. On the fence about showing my wife this..... Apparently, this girl has a huge following on youtube. A very bright gal for sure.

I wouldn’t give up anything that allows more Tennessee residents to carry. I don’t care what another state does… I can’t.
I agree. But people need to be very aware. There are so many LE, especially in other states that may not know or even care.
Best thing I do is use the USCCA Ap when I travel and activate notifications when I cross lines with my gun. Pretty handy. It uses your Phone gps. Also gives you all the states agreements and such. No need to make mistakes these days. Have to stay on your toes. -

A lot?? I don’t think so. That was brought up a lot, but I haven’t yet see it happen; although it could. If people want to travel they need to go to the class, and get the HCP.
The only changes I’ve remember seeing posted here where when some state (or maybe two?) changed their reciprocity with Tennessee when our HCP allowed under 21 to carry.
Thats my point. But here:
Based on our preliminary review of the new statute and ongoing discussions with the Department of Safety, here’s our summary of the main differences between the two permits:
- Enhanced permit holders can carry either open or concealed; Concealed permit holders must always cover up the gun.
- Concealed permit is easier to obtain (less training required, online training allowed, lower application fee).
- There’s no lifetime permit with the Concealed option (lifetime permits are Enhanced only).
- Public college employees with Enhanced permits can carry in parks with students present, unless there’s an athletic event. Concealed permit holders cannot carry anywhere near school-related events.
- Reciprocity agreements with other states might be disrupted with the Concealed permit, though we don’t know for sure yet. Reciprocity for Enhanced permits is expected to stay the same.
For more details, resources, links, and contact information, please continue reading below, see the information posted on the TN Department of Safety’s website, or email the Department of Safety’s Handgun Office or call (615) 251-8590.

According to Cunningham's Law, if I am wrong, I will soon find out the right answer, but I don't see any substantial difference between the two types of permits other than open carry and the 8-hour training requirement. In fact, I would love to be wrong about the campus carry part, and if so, I would need to research how the reciprocity from Georgia is (i.e, which type of TN permit does my Georgia Weapons Carry License equate).
Correct me if I'm wrong but a lot of states will not grant reciprocity.... big plus having that. Be damned if I can find a link mentioning it.

I know a few Tennesseans who have expressed interest in carrying but haven't gone any further. Most of these people would be served well enough by the "non-enhanced" Concealed Carry Handgun Permit due to lower cost and no desire to open carry. In my opinion, when reading the difference between the two types on the gov webpage, I wouldn't be surprised if a large number of new gun people would go the concealed only route. The webpage doesn't really have much of a sales pitch for the Enhanced Permit.
Does anyone have recommendations or experience with any of the online courses, especially as to usefulness for new carriers? On the permit webpage, there is a list, but it would nice to narrow down the choices.
More to it not to just care about open carry. There are more differences than that.

That's great but wtf not the wife?

One of the biggest and the media does it, hollywood does it, etc.

Prayers for sure. I've been in pain in right hip since 10/24/20 and am currently going through testing. Very painful. Hope ya'll do well.

Post some photos. Flitz is also an option but not knowing if you have polished flats, satin finish or brushed finish, there is not correct answer. Everything mentioned is a solution. Just not sure of yours. More info needed number 5.... ')

I tend not to have duplicates of any of my rifles. BUT, I do have one for every occasion plus occasions I haven't thought of yet..
They are safe queens for the most part because I just can't get out to the ranges as much. Tend to use handguns more but now just hording ammo.- I can reach out and touch someone.
- I can reach out and touch someone even further
- A master key for just those occasions
- Close quarter battle
- Lever action when I feel like playing cowboys and Indians
- Clearing rooms
- Self defense
....etc.

The ATF has also prosecuted folks for malfunctioning firearms. (See the Olofson case.) They don’t care if it was intentional or a malfunction. A machine gun is a machine gun and they will prosecute you for it after having it tested by their Firearms Technology Branch using unwritten and unreleased criteria to ensure that the proper result is achieved.
Their reputation is well deserved after spending decades earning it.
Not buying that example. Just read the case. Seems to me it was purposely done. Not by accident or a faulty part. One way or another, being prosecuted and even having charges stick are slim to none for a broken sear. You have a better chance of getting hit by lightning. When mine broke, I made the gun safe, packed it away and brought it directly to the gunsmith. Wasn't dumb enough to keep trying it because I knew something was wrong.
In the many decades I've been shooting, I've seen and heard of quite a few sears breaking or even someone that had no idea what they were doing, trying to file down the sear to lessen the trigger pull, etc. I believe it can even be more imminent today with some of the cheap parts used unlike many years ago where a lot of products were made by hand.
The above post depicting that this could be used by the ATF as being used in a case it ludicrous. Why point that out in that context? It's not amusing in todays 2A environment. It just draws problems...FTR: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_v._Olofson

ATF has sent people to prison because they ruled a shoestring or a paper clip was an unregistered machine gun. They have earned the reputation they have.
...and what does that have to do with a broken sears or malfunctions? Nothing here indicated it was done on purpose. Everything mentioned can legitimately happen. As it has happened to me once in my life. There are plenty of true stories of it across a good spectrum of gun models. You screw with your gun purposely, you get what you deserve. But I see no comments here that indicate they screwed with their guns to make it go full auto. ####e happens. Sometimes you learn the hard way. Or you are happy the outcome was not a bad one where someone got hurt of died.

P365 vs Hellcat
in Handguns
Posted
I'm an HK guy so finger position for the mag on some other guns are hard to reach. I love the HK mag release concepts.
On the P365, you can reverse the safety to the other side because it's just that much easier, for me a least. I hit it with my right index finger, (like my HK mag release), and the new mag is already there to get swapped out.
Getting arthritis in my hands, having options is a good thing.
