Was in North College Hill Guns today spent my lunchtime there. Picked up 25 rds of 38SP for 8 bucks. They were in a Ziplock baggie. The shop will buy a gun and what's left of the ammo from someone and can't sell it new. And also a pack of 7.65X54R's Russian Heavy Ball for my Mosin.
But while there they did have a Springfield XD-s 45 acp. What a sweet little 45. It was already spoken for but it feels right and fits right in my hand..... Their price was $599.00. The 1911 in same size small concealed carry version from ATI was $499.00. 100.00 more and you got the XD-S.
The guy who they were holding it for found 1 more shop in Cincinnati that was trying to get 799.00 for the XD-S. Springfield did not know what kind of hit they had. They are making more.
They had a target from one guy who works there and got the second one they sold. At 15 yards all shots were dead on. That from a 3.3 inch barrel 45ACP. Since one was not available I walked out with only the ammo purchase. Or else I would be the proud owner of one right now. :banghead:
The problem is if you enter a shop and take one in hand it WANTS to come home with you.
It just says, "I need a home, and you are my bestest pal."
So just to warn you, do not pick one up unless it is not spoken for and you are ready to plunk down cash. The weight feels right. The size feels right. You have been warned.
