Well its all bought and paid for, but as it turns out my stocking dealer doesn't actually stock the model I want. So Nightforce is going to custom build one to my specs, it's going to be four weeks.
Bittersweet.

That's well worth the wait I would say, but bittersweet indeed.
Anyway, congrats on your long awaited purchase.

I think its going to go right out to fund a new holster. Even though I already have more holsters than most girls have shoes.
I need all new ones now I have the light on there..

Yeah but you gotta have one per outfit
At least yours is a rational reason, I told my wife I need to buy a new Glock to go with this steel guide rod I got laying on my desk

Exactly! And I only have one light compatible holster. It just sucks I paid more for this plastic thing than I did for an entire Safariland rig.
And why a steel guide? If it aint broke..

That's exactly why the steel guide rod is laying on my desk right now.
I see no real need for it as opposed to the polymer one, but hey if it gives me an excuse for a new Glock, then I'm all in.

I just convinced my roommate to use his Wildland ID to get a Glock for himself and his girlfriend, $398.20.
Oh and I've actually heard of more problems with the steel rod than the original polymer one because it doesn't allow the spring to flex with the frame.

Under $400 for a Glock... can't beat that deal.
I could see how a steel guide rod might be a problem in that way. If the frame is trying to flex with recoil and the spring is traveling rearward on a part that cannot flex (or very very little), then I could imagine there might be some ejection and/or feeding issues that could result... makes sense.
I suppose I'll keep all my Glocks just as originally engineered... because, as you said earlier, "if it ain't broke..."

Apparently the new 4G Glocks are the same price as the "now old" 3G!

Yeah, I'm still trying to get myself a Glock 26 but I keep spending too much money on knives. I just dropped about $400 on a couple of Benchmade balisongs... so I guess the 26 will have to wait until tax time. I guess I have too many demands on my money these days?!

Somehow I ended up with disposable income. Thus how I ended up with a scope that can see 2000 yards, but I can only shoot 800.

That's OK though, just let's you see the hole you made in the target better.
