To my great despair I just can't afford another gun after spending $575 on an M&P9 Pro Series, but I want someone on PF to get this deal. These are typically 550-650. I have no connection or fiduciary interest in BGS, and I like a few other shops better, but this is a steal.

Aaaand I have been one-upped.

That's a 92FS for LESS than a Sig SP2022. Anyone who doesn't already have a 92 would be nuts not to jump on one of these.

Unless they're holding out for a really clean 92D...

There are also a bunch of 92 Compacts with rail for really cheep on GB right now. A couple of them may stay that way at close.

Blowouts to make room for the 92X's coming in?

Anybody know of a similar deal for a non railed compact?

Just what I needed for my new M9A3 Slide!

Of course - not the 10 rnd California compliant model which is still $200 more and since Buds won't swap out magazines I'm hosed.

Just one more thing that add to to cost of living in this shit state. :mad:

Buds won't swap out magazines I'm hosed.

I was under the belief that swapping magazines didn't get it past the roster. It has to be the actual SKU of the 10-rd gun to get into the state if being sold directly to a civvie.

Some pistols on the roster have specific SKUs listed while others are just the general model numbers. In the case of the M9A1 it is just listed as 92FS M9A1 so in theory you should be good to go without it being a specific SKU as long as the dealer was OK with it and it didn't involve a transfer of evil magazines or features.

Unfortunately M9A1s must be the CA Specific SKU (It ends in CA) to be eligible.

For a stock milspec (well, USMC-spec) gun, I found the example I fired to be exceptionally accurate. That's a great price, and nothing that a Langdon TJIB and grips couldn't immediately raise the bar on even farther.

Best, Jon

The best price I'd get that M9A1 for in my area via GalleryofGuns would be $578.
An $89 difference could be worth dealing with some of Buds' minor annoyances of communication (or the lack of) and slower shipping (not getting it out the door right away).

That has pretty much been my experience with Buds. Subpar service, AWFUL website, but some of the best gun deals I've ever gotten. I got both my M2.0 Compact 9mm and M2.0 fullsize .45 for somewhere south of $390, and that was when they were pretty new.

Anybody have one of those .22LRs? How do they shoot?

Sheesh. That's cheaper than the Beretta conversion kit!

Are the .22 frames compatible with standard Beretta trigger components? Has anyone dropped a LTT or Wilson trigger bar into one of these?
