It really doesn't.
I stand corrected sir. Looking at pics, I remember there was a model that was different from my 1980's Hi Power that had a safety like the new FN, and the Girsan has it too. I thought it was the Inglis.
-
I see the FN version looks just like the old 'Inglis' Canadian version, or at least the safety does.

Bump since I'll be in Lebanon next week

I have 2- a Swampfox Sentinel which comes on when you move it, and a Holosun with an on/off button.
Both are target guns so I like them both, but if was a carry gun you would want the instant-on option.
I'm actually a fan of a laser for a carry gun. They are a lot less obtrusive, and you dont have to be looking thru the sight to see where you are aiming, which chances are will be in the dark anyway. Lets say someone broke into your house at night, that little red dot on them would probably send them packing-lol.

That is the principle on which I don't do BOS. I won't be an adjunct registry portal for something I believe is unconstitutional. Again, this has been hashed out in the old BOS threads and I wouldn't advise anyone not to use a BOS, but I have chosen not to.
That being said, I may or may not keep a record of firearms that have moved through my possession. I just don't do a BOS.
I have a similar way to record what I buy, sell or trade. I have a book with the gun serial #in question, when I got it, when I sold it, and the phone numbers of buyers, or sellers. Sometimes even the license plate #.
I see it this way. If something I sold turned up stolen, or used in a crime, it might come back to me. (Because you never know if the guy that sold it or bought it keeps records also-lol). So I want some info to show where it came from. I will also do an occasional BOS if its something I bought at a dealer and filled out paperwork.

Many have commented in this thread about how dumb it was to sell their, lets say 1966 Mustang or (insert your older cars here-lol) for $900 because they are worth so much today. But lets not forget, thats just what those cars sold for back in the day. I sold my 1967 Chevelle for $1200 in about 1974 or 75. Bought a 1970 Chevelle 454 for $1500. Drove that car into the ground and probably got less than that for it-lol. But, that was a lot of money for a high school kid working part time after school for $3.50/hr. Its all relative. Same as gun prices. Hell, I bought a new Smith 37 nickel for around $200, and a Colt Mustang Pocketlite for about the same. Still have them actually.

Do you mean it was your first car with AC? Pontiac offered AC in some models beginning in 1954. A few top-line Packards had it several years before then.

Yea I meant it was the first car I ever had with A/C. My father had a '64 or 65 Caddy convertible with A/C, coolest car ever-lol.

Well, mt first car was a '67 Chevelle SS. Next I had a '70 Chevelle SS 454. After that a real nice '69 Cutlass Supreme. And a sweet '69 Gran Sport. It was an auto, but had all power. Doors, windows, and A/C. It was first car with A/C.

Ah, the Canik-lol. Got the SFX Blackout model in a trade last year. Had it a few weeks, then finally took it out in the back to shoot it. Probably the best shooting gun I ever had. Like you said, made me look like I know what I'm doing-lol. One big ragged hole. Ended up trading it again, but recently picked up another with a Swamp Fox red dot. This one's a shooter also.

I highly recommend the Lansky sharpening kit. Has 5 stones, ranging from coarse to super fine, with a holder that clamps onto the blade for several different sharpening angles.
