yeah, it's nice to put a face behind the s/n. I'm entertaining the idea of selling it. Last week i got a note under my door handle saying if i wanted to sell my lude to call him. I haven't called just yet...I am gonna give him a call though. if the price is right i'll let her go, if not i think i'll be holding on to her for a bit longer.

i'm wondering too about the place on Plantation,as it's only a couple miles from me.never had a chance to go out there though.
my parents living in Franklin County gives me plenty of opportunity for free shooting(step outside the garage and relieve some stress when a car is driving me crazy ).
as for local gunshops,try Franklin Rod and Gun in Rocky Mount.they're super nice,and have better deals than any shop i've been to here in Roanoke.it's a little drive,but not bad.
how much did you pay for the FNP?your other three choices were also on my list lasy year when i bought a new pistol,along with Ruger.i ended up liking the Ruger P90 most,and got one at the gun show(which BTW,you can find killer deals if you don't mind waiting for one to come around).love it!

i couldn't fit the arsenal on/in my bike
it would look kinda Mad Max-ish to have the Police issue shotgun strapped over my shoulder as i ride.

Find a place. I'm down. Make sure they allow bigger weapons and others. Some places don't allow you to shoot just anything.

Thats what I was thinking. I don't shoot just pistols. I could see you guys driving around on bikes with shotguns and assault rifles on your back. Sure that would go over well.

I dunno about a western DragVA shooting day, maybe split them up into groups, because I bet some people would try to kill each other lol!
