I went to the range today to shoot my recently acquired Security Six and spotted the Match Champion GP100. I forced myself to leave without it. It may be my next purchase.

It's your fault Cyanide........all that DAO talk.  Can't wait to let you know how the trigger feels.

mine is a Kimber Custom II .45acp,    almost here. Cant wait to hit the gun range and throw some 'biggies'.

The Custom II is supposed to be one of the more reliable 1911's.  Have thought about that one many times.  Please post pics and impressions when you get it.

Zastava M70A. For a $200 gun it's a nice well made little brick.

I'm thinking maybe a 4" S&W 500, cause why not I want a hand cannon even if shooting it fells like getting punched in the hand.

Very cool, these are interesting pistols. If they were on the Cali roster i might have picked one up.

Gratz man!
Will work for CZ pics! (including but not limited to all CZ clones)

Towns, interested in how you like the V1 LEM, and if you keep it there or, revert back to V2 or mod to V4.

Cyanide, I will let you know soon.  It is sitting at the FFL.  They said they are short handed today and are trying to get them all logged in. :( :( :(  So today or tomorrow.  I have heavier springs coming from HK Parts.  I will test the trigger with my gauge before making any changes.

CZ 75B Retro.
I know, I know...
But just fired a 75 for the first time at Sundays steel challenge.
And $479 at Buds (offer accepted) was too good to pass up.
Not  complete CZ noob, as I do have a VZ50 and a .22 LR 455 American.

Good luck Towns! All 4 of my HKs are on their way out actually. I love the LEM, but the pistols themselves aren't doing anything for me so getting rid of them to fund other projects/acquisitions.

Thinking I am going to pick up a couple of pistols that I have had in the past and gotten rid of; a Glock 19 (Gen4, and maybe a 17 too), and another P-07 Duty, preferably the model with the extended barrel and night sights. Most likely going to snatch up a Beretta PX4 Subcompact to go along with my full size as well.

As far as CZ's go, I have my sights set on a 75B or a P01. I would love to give the H&K VP9 a try as well. I thought about giving the 4th generation Glocks a try but  I have owned many Glocks in the past and never really felt satisfied with them for some reason.

Guess I should learn to never say never lol. Spent a great deal of time messing around with and, doing a great deal of dry firing a Sig P250 over the last hour. My crystal ball is telling me that I will be adding one of those to my collection very soon! Perhaps it will give me the warm, fuzzy feeling that I thought the HK LEM pistols were going to, but failed, since it has a trigger with full resistance through the entire pull....

I guess my next handgun is an SP01 (safety model).  Surprisingly, my local gun shop actually located one and it should arrive today or tomorrow.
