Sounds like a pretty solid deal on the SW's

I'd like to pick up a ported, snub 629 at some point.

My next firearm purchase will probably be a 4.5" barrel to have threaded and get a suppressor or an 8" target barrel.   With the 8", the pistol can get solid groups at 100yds!!!

I've been attempting to find an Omega Speedmaster Pro with a c.321 movement for the last couple of months at a decent price. The search continues.

Back to audio gear.  Does this thing look worth the $1800 price?  I have HD digital audio out (24/192) on my Dell laptop and some nice Nohr 5.1 SM speakers in my office.  It's a "near field" setup in a small square room with a high ceiling.  I'm using a Sony receiver now with 24/96 dac.  I do have an iphone.  I usually listen to Radioparadise (192k MP3 stream); but if I got the HD gear I would start buying recorded music again (and ripping lossless).

Just out of curiosity, what do you consider a decent price?
I keep my eyes on a few different venues, both physical and online, and would be happy to point you in the right direction if I find one that meets your needs.


I ended up just ordering a galco half harness for the jacka55 holster.  Both of 'em should be here early next week, hopefully before I leave town for Vegas.   A lot of people aren't fond of shoulder holsters, but it meets my particular needs.  I'm almost always wearing a button up shirt that would suitably conceal, but almost never one that's tucked or that would continue to conceal should I bend down.
The P9S is going to the smith while I'm on vacation, he's gonna smooth out the SA pull and try to tighten up some of the overtravel.

@spc:

Great find! Shoulder holsters suit me fine; in fact, had I not spent all my discretionary money on new leathers and increasing my bike's security, I would have bought a Galco Miami Classic for my M&P 40 (which usually rides in a Comp-Tac MTAC), and a Kodiak bandolier holster for the Redhawk. Oh, would have bought a CZ 2075 RAMI too, but a new jacket, pants, and gloves ain't cheap, and neither are the guns and stuff.

Yeah, I'm pretty excited.  Finding a quality holster for the P9S is pretty tough.  There are a handful of guys that custom make them, but they're all $200 and 8-10 month wait times.
I jumped when I saw this on ebay.  I went with the half harness because I don't carry spare magazines often enough to justify the fuss of trying to keep it balanced when I don't.  I also prefer, when I do carry spare mags, to carry them weakside on the belt or back pocket.

Had a funny incident regarding spare mags a few weeks back.  I was downtown in Savannah with a date and she decided that she wanted to go for a walk around........at 10:45PM.  I said, 'OK, let's just stop by my car first'  Chucked one double mag carrier in my back pocket (BTW, most states don't regulate ammo/magazines re concealed carry) and handed her another to put in her purse.  She almost had a seizure.  She got over it quick though when I told her the alternative was her carrying my .38

I really mess with the heads of these poor art school girls :icon_rolleyes:
They just can't comprehend a guy being witty, articulate, urbane and selfless..........and being willing to defend themselves.
They really get confused when I tell them that they are not, by definition liberal if they support Obama...
