Never want to be the first overpaying beta tester. That 10mm M&P looks really enticing. Was looking at the Kimber Rapide but could buy 3 S&Ws for what they still want for those.

I really like the look of kimbers, but have not had complete happy satisfaction with my purchases and intended use of them, all but one (of 5 purchased) had issues, one would expect a gat of that magnitude to not do so, of course its been a few years, perhaps the quality or my ignorance of function have subsided

and yeah on the M&P

I am curious if I will have the "kimber experience" when I finally get around to shooting the KHX Custom I picked up a little while ago. At least it is really puuuuurdy.

In SA-35 news - GarandThumb posted a video about it. Like all his content - hilaious intro. I want a service animal now, that is a Tacticalpaca.

Ha, you old timers and relics make me giggle. Those plastic guns Gaston made never bit me, and I don't have to worry about putting the spring guide rod in backwards. :o

Have a great, gun carryin', Kenpo day

Yep..old timers.... :naughty:
You make me giggle.
But you don't have the "old timers" knowledge or experience...
And you talk about guide rods..

This “old Timer” just picked my SA-35 up!
No crazy prices!
Just ordered some spare mags, I’m happy!
By the way, sweet trigger.

I’ve owned several Browning HP,
But let the last one go. Several years back. Kicked my ass ever since. This is a great replacement, with bigger mags. Not much but 15 beats 13 rounds any day.

Did you buy local or order online. I haven't found one in stock.

Dealer ordered it for me awhile back.
Under retail price too. With today’s gunbroker prices being about double.

Reminds me of the P365 craze after it was first announced. Several sold for over a grand back then, but the gun can be found for half that even now.
This clone has my attention. Will wait for the fuss to die down.

People who spend 2x+ MSRP just to “bE dAh FiRsT” are morons, LOL. I’m with you, definitely interested but absolutely waiting for the idiots to wear themselves out so I can buy one for well under retail when they get worked up for the next latest/greatest and have to sell their old toys to get raped on the new ones. 😂

Exactly! I paid $$$ for it, so I feel good about it. I also refuse to pay double retail. I’m waiting for the Anacondas to be more available. Shhhhhhh don’t tell my wife!!!

I have been hearing a few of the SA-35’s have been having some extractor issues. Either not working correctly or shearing off completely. If you have one make sure to inspect your extractor. I think it’s happening even with a relatively low number of rounds down range.
