Not sure why you would ask that.
He sounds like he would fit in here.

Glad the end result is you don't have a non-functioning pistol lying around. Glad I'm reading this thread. Have one of these VP's sitting in the safe and haven't taken it out yet. Same green frame, but a tan slide. Now I gotta go pull it apart and see what's under that slide.

If it were only a Glock you would find perfection that's easy to not screw up.



Just thinking out loud.

Might want to reconsider invitation after your hear this....

Ok... so earlier this morning the seller did indeed come to my shop. He offered to buy the gun back. I took him up on the offer. He handed me the cash and left with said gun. Flash forward to lunch time...

I'm setting in CiCi's pizza chowin' down and the phone rings. It's the seller of the VP9 this saga is about. He says:"Doug I got it fixed. I've pulled the trigger a 100 times with no problems. Do you want me to drive it back over there to your shop?" I tell him I'm eatin' and I'll call him when I'm done. Sooo... I get done.

Out in the truck I call him back. I tell him I'm not real comfortable with the gun now. And he starts in about how he's fixed it. Seems the trigger stop bolt, which I could not get back in all the way, was the culprit. He had to pull the trigger assy. in and out several times, according to him, and finally got the trigger stop bolt to seat correctly. With nothing but friction holding it in, I pulled it out with my fingers, I'm not a fan of the design. And I told him that. Also told him I was going to take a pass on a second purchase of the same gun. Wellll.... Hell....

You'da thought I kicked him in the nuts! He went off like a short fuse on firecracker. He used no cuss words and didn't attack my heritage but - I got the distinct impression he wasn't happy. Which confused the heck out of me. All I'm guilty of is taking him up on his offer. If he'd of only offered to fix the gun so the trigger would function as designed - I'da been good with that too. He offered me a refund. I accepted. End of story.

I can understand him being upset.

But I agree with you on not wanting it, especially if you planned on using it as an EDC.

 

[Dougw1515]

Sometimes I've said it. Sometimes I've implied it. But if you're dealing with me you "Better not say it if you don't mean it!" 'cuz I just might take you up on "it"!
