Well back from the gun show, bought another handgun today can't ever have to many around  :tu:  so how was the ride today?  Saw a lot  of bikes out today, wish I rode today.  Maybe tomorrow ill get out for a few.
Hey Dave, what did you get today? I kind of slacked off on the guns for a while, bikes been taking any spare money and then some, besides its not like I really need another gun, problem is when your taste's in guns go up as in they cost more (sometimes a lot more) you tend not to buy as many, had a dozen Glocks a couple years ago then got interested in 1911s, and I found out that for one nice 1911 Colt or Kimber it costs about two and a Half Glocks, and naturally you got to have at least one useless gun, and I meen useless except for making a ton of noise and scaring all the ladies at the range (S&W500 mag), and ever since shooting cheap ammos been tough to get, so we have not been out much at all, I could have had RCC build me a 600HP turbo bike with him supplying the bike for what I spent on guns in the last few years :|

Got a sig today. Was looking at a ar but I saw this ak and said I'll hold off for right now. They had a nice 50 cal there I wanted.   :tu:

I hear you, going to another show next month. Most likely I'll get two more hand guns and a Mosin-Nagant.
Sigs are great guns, had a 220 and a 226, a bit heavy to carry but shoot great, the 50s are cool be a pistol or a 50 BMG rifle but you really need your own land to shoot them to there potential, and the ammo will break the bank if you shoot much, when I got out of the race car you could buy 9mm for 7-8 dollars a box of 50 now look what it is :( if your buying handguns just to go shoot and play with about anything that fits your hand good will do, but if your buying to keep/investment sort of thing the sig is good but also look into S&W revolvers, and good name 1911s, Colts, Kimbers, Springfields, the real high end stuff is nuts and your paying to much for a name,  and you will have a ball with a Mosin, just look it over real close, having a good bore is super important for good accuracy, they still shoot good but if you want something of sniper rifle quality it must have a good bore, I had 5 just kept one,  refinished the stock myself and put on  a nice scope setup (golf balls at 220yds) off a rest of course, I cant hold my pecker that still if I had to :lol: and on a AK, most are good but ck it out inside and out or bring someone with you that knows them, ARs are finaly coming back down in price a bit, they got crazy for a while and if I was smart should have sold out then rebought would made a ton, before the school shooting I could get plane jane AR for 550-650 then within a couple of weeks that very same gun was 1200-1500 if you could find them
The older you get do you notice you start chickening out way before the bike does

They are actually 100X more comfy than stock.  Unless you are 300lbs+, then it probably won't matter what seat you have... :lol:

Has anyone compared a new image seat to Corbin?

I have had a Corbin since they were released for the gen 2 and have been thinking about trying something different.
