Bud's Gun Shop (located in LEX but they also have a massive online store) was giving sizable discount to anybody with a CPL on all Smith & Wesson firearms (including the M&P-15) a few months ago; not sure if that is still in effect or not.
You're correct. Any store that can give a LEO discount should be able to give you the same. The place I went to had it's own stock of guns that could be discounted (i.e. Models and certain brands) now that I think about I did see a Sprindfield XD in there. (an earlier post mentioned the XD) So I wouldn't expect to walk in and get a discount on anything in the store. Luckily there was a place about 45 mins from me so that was nice. But I live in Texas so that wasn't too hard.

I heard that some older serial numbers had trouble feeding hollows, but I never had any problem with mine. Price is really good. Don't think I would carry it, but it's great for targets.

Default Guns!

Let's have a fun thread for a change! Let's talk guns, people. Looking for a great concealed handgun. Leaning towards the Sig 250 or the Smith and Wesson M&P compact. The Taurus Millennium Pro felt great, too. What are you carrying? Also thinking about AR-15s! What do you got? Zombie Apocalypse is right around the corner, let's get prepped!

[Mod note: this thread was merged from the Military forum.]

They may move this, but if they don't, I carry an XD subcompact 9mm, my wife carries the S&W 442.

SIG 239 in 40 or .357 sig is one of my favorites....But then again it's like a woman with a purse. She certainly has a different one for every outfit! Just depends what kind of clothes I'm wearing, summer vs winter etc...Just so hard to choose!

I only have two so far. An XD40 "Tactical" (5" barrel) and a 12ga Benelli SuperNova Tactical with pistol grip and ghost ring sights.

I'm trying to decide between a 1911 or an AR for my next purchase.

HK P2000 in DA/SA. Love this pistol. Small enough to CCW with, I have it in a Crossbreed IWB holster. I have the 9mm flavor, did not care for the .40 S&W in this frame. Check Policeguns.com for some really great prices.

Out.

Great "little" gun is the Keltec 380 in parkerized finish. Around $230 when I bought it from the exchange. All the others mentioned are mammoths compared to it. I like as large of a caliber in as small as a package for concealed. I have other hand cannons, shotguns, and rifles for other duty.
