Black Friday Gun & Ammo deals?

Need shotgun ammo!

Quote from cm2 : Thanks. Glock definitely makes a nice firearm, (I actually still have a 17) and the Gen4 23 is no exception. But, when I rented both the Glock and S&W 40s at my local range, I just couldn't get comfortable with the grip of the 23. I'm a lefty, so that could have been the problem (one of the main reasons i like to try before I buy). The M&P just felt better to me. Plus, if I can, I'd really like to buy from an American company this time. I still need to try out an XD.

Same as you, I shoot lefty and have never really liked the grip of the Glocks. My M&P40 has a very nice low bore axis. The trigger breaks nice and crisp out of the box -not like the mushy Glocks -- and is very easy to do a trigger job to make it even better (reduce over travel and reset). Although if you are not comfortable doing the work yourself, let your local gunsmith do it for you or send to to Bowie Tactical or Dan Burwell.

I bought a Glock 17 I wanted for a while and was so happy until I felt a M&P 9, then I immediately sold the Glock and went to a M&P 9, and LOVE IT!!

S&W's M&P line has to be one of the most underrated firearms lines out there!!!

I refuse to get a Glock just cause everyone else has it.

I'll stick with Ruger for now.

I need some cheap 9mm target ammo. cheaper than walmart even.

got my first firearm this year. a 1911. and i'm love struck. getting better at my aim and trigger control. just bought a 24 gun safe, and looking to expand my collection. need a shottie, a bolt action, would like an ak... just cause... lol. maybe an AR as well. wouldn't mind a glock, just cause everyone has one. would also like to get into reloading... started collecting cases. will collect it from the range whenever range master lets me sweep up. hoping to stock up on a bunch of goodies this bf, but am doubtful...

does anyone know if turner's participates in bf sales?

Quote from joerocket : does anyone know if turner's participates in bf sales?

Yes they do. I can't remember any specifics, but I think last year had a few decent deals. Definitely worth a look.
BTW, nice to see some love for M&P
This year I'll be lookin for a shotty or to complete my ar build.

EDIT: I found a link to last year's holiday flyer, but then I remembered that the BF ad is separate.

Quote from RAYMONDY : Can you order ammo online?

Of course. Check Midwayusa.com, cheaperthandirt.com, sportsmansguide.com, and there are several other sites.

Get that poor, lonely 1911 some company in that big scary safe.

Quote from membersonly : Need shotgun ammo!

Aim Surplus sells RIO brand 12 gauge buckshot for $1.99 for a box of 5 when you buy 20 or more boxes ($2.19 a box under). Made in Spain - it is good for practicing and/or home defense

For M&Ps, I can't recommend enough these guys:
http://www.sportsmansoutdoorsuper...AND-WESSON
They are part of Vance's Outdoors in Ohio. I bought from them, sent it to my local FFL and it was there in 2 days. Free shipping too - paid my transfer fee @ my FFL and took it home.
I bought the M&P 40 Carry and Range Kit - coupled with a .357 sig barrel and a 9mm barrel and 9mm mags, I have a 3 caliber handgun - perfect for cheap plinking, home defense and tactical shooting.

For ammo, check out urlhasbeenblocked/category/ammo, ammoseek and gun-deals.com/ammo to find the best prices

Also, if the gun bug has bit you, check this out:

there is so much you can get discounts on and firearms you can have shipped to your door by paying the gov't $10/yr for a Collector of Curios and Relics license (FFL 03)

damn... seriously disappointed with cabala's ad... well, i'm putting all my hope into turner's now...

Walmart ad scan is up and has some gun and safe deals at the end. $867 for Sig Ar15 is decent.

"Everyone" has one for a reason. They work when you need it to and are affordable by most. I don't buy into the cool factor with guns. Guns shouldn't be cool, they aren't toys, they are weapons that serve the purpose of protecting your most valuable asset. They protect you and your family. Get what works for you and to he** with everyone else!

That said, I own 2 Glocks (37 and 26), 1 Kahr CW9 and 1 Beretta PX4 Storm 9mm. Also have a Sig P238 on the list for my next purchase (wife's new carry weapon, she's too petite to conceal the G26 effectively). All are great guns and serve their own purposes. I personally didn't like the Ruger LC9 and LCP when I shot them. The trigger pull was too rough for me and they felt too unrefined. "Everyone" has one of those, though. They are very cost effective and they are typically reliable. Glock follows the same thought, simple and dependable. I just feel like they are a bit more refined for better control. Just my $0.02 because I think you are overlooking some really good firearms just because you feel they are "trendy".

I apologize if that came across as a lecture, wasn't trying to make it that way. Ruger is definitely a worthy gun. If you are like me then you'll always be adding to your collection and never removing! You may find room for a Glock later on!

i think i'm looking for something better then "decent"... i mean, it's good... but i don't think EVERY walmart is going to carry that... and the lines for walmart is going to be ridiculous. still holding my hopes for turner's.

Not every Walmart will have those. The closest one to me doesn't carry very many guns and definitely no AR's but another store about 20 minutes away has a pretty good selection including AR's.
From what I've heard of the Sig M400 is a nice rifle and you get a lot for the money making it a good value. Just a note for anyone interested, the description says it's available in 5.56 or .223 caliber, make sure you get one rated for 5.56. You can fire .223 ammo in a 5.56 rifle but you CAN NOT fire 5.56 ammo in a .223 rifle.

Another thing about common guns that "everyone has" is accessories & parts are easier and cheaper to find.

Just picked up my 3rd Glock a couple weeks ago at a gun show, a 2nd gen 23. Already had a 2nd gen 17 & 4th gen 22. Yes, I am also "everyone" who owns a LCP & LC9. I don't have a problem with guns that are cool and functional. At the top of my wishlist right now is the KelTec KSG, mainly because they are so f-ing cool. I saw one at the last gun show I was at, but the guy wanted $1800. For more than double the $800 suggested retail, I wanted to tell the guy where to shove it.
