Official T4R "Firearms" thread

Picked up a cheapie - $250 S&W SD9VE. Wanted a under $300 truck gun / loaner gun.

The reviews on the gun are true - the stock trigger sucks!

I personally am not a fan of the S&W M&P jointed triggers either. Had a M&P Shield that I gave to my sister in-law. Hated that trigger, as a left hander, the single side right hand only thumb safety annoyed me as well.

I added an Apex trigger / spring kit for $44 to it. It's apples and oranges better now. Smooth and lightweight in the pull. Like a Glock with a trigger job now.

I was surprised at how much it disassembles like a Glock.

If I run across another one cheap - $200 to $250, I'll grab it.

This is the last one I bought. A Tikka CTR chambered in .308
I also inherited my dads Marlin Model 60 .22LR recently.
Both are great shooters.

Not really into rifles but when I saw the engravings on these lowers I bought two in honor of my Governor.

My first builds. Trying to keep cost reasonable but quality high.
Cheap lowers but I bought Giesselle triggers. I'll buy nice barrels too but everything else will be mil-spec.

Waiting for my tax stamp, when I receive it I can pick up my Obsidian45 can for my Glock 21 it has a surefire light on the lower rail, that is what sits in my night stand.
 
Went down to a local shop just to see if they had ammo and ended up walking out with this.

And and picked up two lowers to store since I'm using my spare lower I currently have to build an AR-15 pistol. Couldn't pass up on the design and they are sequential serials so I opted to keep the 'brothers' together.

Has anyone ever purchased from Guns.com before?

I placed an order 2 weeks ago. They charged my card immediately but the order has been in "fulfillment" per their site for 13 days.

Two emails have gone unanswered and they are not answering their phones.
I get we are in a alternate universe right now, but they should be managing emails and phones during that time or at least not charging people's cards if they're not going to ship.

I've not ordered from them specifically. It sucks but that's how it is with most online sources right now. Most will charge your card to basically hold your order / place in line. They are overwhelmed with orders while at the same time some may be understaffed due to people having to stay home with their children, etc. The fact that everyone is emailing and calling them asking about their orders only slows them down even more (not saying you are doing this). Went through similar period back during the panic buying after Sandy Hook.

Just be patient is the only advice I can give. And you aren't alone. I have three standing orders from different sites for different items that are in the same state as yours.
