    Not really... I like my P938.

    It's fun to watch people's jimmies get rustled over a little joke, tho.
    I dish out as much, I would be quite the a$$ if I couldn't take it. Having a P320, I do like to know if there is problems though.

    This was plain stupid. They had the ability to make $600 off of those sales. They could have put that money into Law Enforcement ortheir pet homeless or affordable housing projects but they piss it away virtue signaling.

    This 10-1 City Council has been the worse idea that has been implemented in a long time. Now they plan on closing Congress Avenue to automobile traffic for pedestrian use. Stupid. They have so much other important crap to worry about that they continue to ignore.

    I'm not sure the 10-1 system has much to do with this. The City Council was just as insane when it was single member. I recall reading that before they went to 10-1, every council member but one lived within like a 1 mile radius of City Hall, and the one that didn't lived just outside Tarrytown. At least 10-1 gives us a chance at a halfway sane member once in a while (like Don Zimmerman or Troxclair) although at the end of the day it hasn't seemed to make any difference. Liberal idiots gonna be liberal idiots.

    The previous administrations seemed more sensible. They all had their faults but since 10-1 came things in Austin have gotten worse.

    And hearing about the 10-1’s police contract proposal doesn’t help my outlook on it.

    Totally agree! Previously the 7 member city council did not have districts and all were charged with representing the whole city. The 10-1 council set up 10 fiefdoms with only 1 member, the mayor, charged with the whole city. It seems to me more side deals (you help me on this and I'll help you on that) are done now, just like like at the federal level.

    This industry is better off with less trade-ins, S&W will make new ones.

    Thanks for helping the gun industry Austin!

    It just goes to show that in addition to not understanding firearms, they also dont understand economics...But we already knew that, I suppose.

    The wieners on Austin City Counsel have done it again.

    Last DPS guy that pulled me over had a P320... I'm ok if they destroy those ;)
    I know someone who won’t be re-elected. What she says is pure Left lunacy. The only thing a trade-in would do is lower the taxpayer’s burden. Those interested in saving money on a new handgun are going to shop around anyway.
