love it , like the stainless slide as well and sights , great little pocket gun , since ownership and shooting a bit I added the Pearce pinky extension for the 10 round (bc we are state compliant here) it gives little more surface area to fully grip without effecting printing , also I use Vedder pocket locker to pocket carry wiht thumb extension and curve bottom ( I just ordered a newer one diff pattern if you want to buy my old one show me message im in Long Island ) I then got adventurous and decided to add the mcarbo goodies myself as first time gunsmith , changes the take down pin , stainless guide rod, recoil spring, trigger spring and flat face trigger , plus the heavy duty mag realize spring ,(little over 100 bucks) and about 2hrs as newbie first time . plus a hogue grip to increase girth and also creates finger grooves for my fingers to be positioned comfortably.
I also amassed 10 round mags so when I go to range I just can concentrate on my shooting vs waisting time on reloading . I only carry in summer months my 380 as most of the other time I AIWB 9mm . but I really like how it shoots now with adjustments I made and can tell first hand as went to range with my buddy and he shot mine and his all orig back to back and then handed me HIS and said I don't want to shoot mine again until you make it match yours ... ordered parts and with my now experienced gunsmitthing lol it took me an hour .. first photo is updated look wiht changes, second phot is yesterday at range wiht all the magazines to concentrate on technique and third is the pocket locker if interested since I don't need it anymore

and now to throw mote dirt in the water s&w dropped the bodyguard 380 version 2 as direct competitor to lcp max, reviews are positive thus far but will wait for the initial waive of users to report real world exp and decide if this newer copy is worth investing since im invested in my ruger and really like it. a boy and his toys .

That's right, mine has the stainless slide. I like that idea since it might be near sweat. I want to shoot mine as is before I add mods. With the OEM floor plate extensions I get most of my pinky on the gun which I'm pretty excited about


I'm in NEPA. You'd have to ship any holster to me.

Had some free time this afternoon and visited a FFL that I hadn't been to in a long while (several years actually). Had no intention of buying anything but wound up walking out the door with this beauty. A Ruger American Generation II rifle in 6.5 Grendel. Also bought a Vortex Diamondback Tactical Scope and a Quake sling to go with it. Gun impulse buys are horrible for my budget.

Brought it home, mounted the scope, took it out and after some putzing around with the scope I was hitting bullseyes consistently at 100 yards. Very happy camper today.

Please ignore my toes in the bottom of the pic. Yes, I know I need to cut my nails.

New case day for the Citori!

I had been putting off getting a dedicated case - until the forearm rolled off the tailgate of my truck and hit the pavement. Coincidentally, a brown sharpie hides bright white boo-boos in glossy wood finish very nicely.

I originally ordered from some company in IL. When I got it, it was damaged. Sent it back requesting a replacement and got a refund. Ordered this one from Optics Planet, and it shipped from the same company as the broken one. Go figure.

Visiting the ole homestead in Texas. Planning on making some boom happen, so I bought the ole girl some fresh food.

Been exercising constitutional carry with what’s left of my green and white box UMC. Man it feels nice to not ask anybody to carry. It fits nicely in a backpack as a “truck” (car) gun.

Picked up a beretta 1301 tactical today. Got it cheaper than an A300 ultima patrol as it was new old stock. (Mod 1 version without the Mlok handguard or pro lifter) with what I saved I can add the pro lifter and still come out ahead.

Bought mine 3 years ago or so and have yet to run a single shell through it.

Also picked up two knives from BNB, I love these guys. Great knives at a reasonable price.

Got a small fixed blade that's a great NYC legal carry EDC. And my new assisted folder... Yes, they laser engraved Rooftop Korean on it!

Both are D2 tool steel.

I have the fixed blade kydex sheath setup to be scout carried.
