go in looking around, walk out with a new toy
Stopped by HG Easton today after work. Felt like looking around. Hoping to spy a used G20. No luck on that front, but did see a Gen 4 G17 with Trijicon sights. Still has the copper grease inside.
$429.
Damn it.
Now I own a G17.
This plus my GF went and got her LTCF today. Good day.It's all fun and games, until someone loses an eye. Then it is hilarious.

Nothin' wrong with a G17! I have one of the early Gen 4s that had the screwed up extractor/ejectors. After I straightened that out it turned out to be a good gun.

Re: go in looking around, walk out with a new toy
I already have a 34 as a range toy, and was leaning towards a 19 as a carry, but after feeling the 19 in hand, comparing it to the 17, I decided the 17 was better for me. The price made it a no brainer. Not an unheard of deal, but pretty darn good, IMHO.
Best part of the transaction is there was some awful little plastic Glock "holster" in the kit. I traded it to a guy in the shop for a breath mint. I think I came out ahead on that one. Lol.It's all fun and games, until someone loses an eye. Then it is hilarious.

The 17 is the classic glock... Good pickup!

Congrats!
I can control myself most of the time, but I have done this before as well.
I really want to look for a 17/19 or a revovler of some kind.
