    If you could sell your Smith for $400 it's a net gain of $225.
    Say you go buy a $600 handgun.
    Take your net gain of $225 plus your original $175, add $200 to it and you now have $375 into a $600 handgun.

    I really don't see how that's losing.

    Your LCP, yep, not worth crap right now.
    $100-125 maybe?
    Say $100 you can sell or trade it for.
    What are the Shields costing right now after the rebates? $240?

    Take your $300 LCP and take the $200 loss, put the $100 towards a Shield plus $140(after rebate) and you now have $350 into a $310 Shield but are into a 9mm and a brand new gun.
    Sure you slid backwards, but IMO it's a $30 upgrade into a 9mm, maybe a break even if you can get $125 out of your LCP or find the Shield on sale at a better price.
    Why get rid of a perfectly good LCP for $100? I carry mine a good 5-6 days a week. I go bigger on the weekends.

    If you can't come up with that $100 to keep the gun, don't buy another one.

    the fact that the topic went silent, others in agreement? lol

    I wouldn't degrade them to ATI status.

    It's a sub-$400 rifle. You get what you get, but I wouldn't hesitate at that price the way I would pass on an ATI.

    You are not getting rid of a perfectly good lcp for $100, you would be moving into a 9mm by being into said 9mm for less than it would cost you to buy one outright if that's what someone was wanting, a new 9mm over a used .380.

    My point is that why have a drawer full of pocket pistols when you can upgrade and be into a new one for a steal by dumping the old one?

    People turn older guns into newer ones all the time, its just like trading in a car.
    The old car might be fine still, but when you can get a new car for a great deal, why not use the old one to make the deal even sweeter?

    I collect guns, but I don't get attached to them.

    That's all I'm going to comment in this thread about trading into a newer/better gun, I've mucked it up enough.

    I don't know anything about this distributor and would suggest checking it out before buying ammo, but $2.20 for 50 rounds might make it worth the research. Basically $220 for 5000 rounds + around $30 shipping equals 5000 rounds of . 22 for $250 total. I have not seen that price in a while.

    If anyone has dealt with ammoking.com I would be interested to hear your opinion so we can see if this is a real deal or not.

    Those typically sell for $10-$12, so even with $5 shipping you are making out OK - if you only want one.

    I was wondering what you were talking about and as I was poking around their site that "spin the wheel - win a prize" thing popped up.
    Clever. Good way to get you on a mailing list.
    Site seems to have "fair" prices and a decent selection so I tried - I won a free boresnake with purchase of a barrel. I don't need a barrel.

    You won Free Bore Snake w/ Barrel Purchase!

    Copy your coupon code and enter it into the Discount field at checkout. Free Bore Snake with the purchase of any Barrel

    Maybe someone else can use the code. Don't know if it's specific to me, or if anyone can use it.
