...and I answered it this afternoon.
The p220 I mentioned in the "Best Looking Pistols" thread? Well, I bought it. It isn't stainless, it's a factory nickel model. It's absolutely beautiful. It's a brand new, unfired, (except for the factory test shots), 10 year old pistol. Everything this pistol came with, including the factory test target and original plastic wraps was included.
I saw it the other day at when I stopped by the gun shop. I didn't really look at it all that closely because of the price. But today, I was driving by on the way home after picking up my new CZ75B and I thought I'd stop in and see what was new. Little did I know that that German pistol was calling me!
I answered by asking to take a closer look at it. "I can't afford this", I said to myself, "I just bought a pistol." The owner saw the look in my eye. He told me more about it. I was weakening. But, I said, "No, I just bought a pistol today". I handed it back, said "Thanks!", and left.
I only got 1/3 of the way home, thinking the whole way about about how to swing buying it. The Sig was calling me back! I turned around, walked back in and said, "I'll take it!". 30 minute later, it was mine. I know I probably paid too much, but it was only $75.00 more than a new, black, 'plain' one. I was weak, I know. But it was just too nice to pass on!
Please, tell me I did the right thing!!!
Now, the next question. SHOULD I SHOOT IT???
Thanks for listening.
