    Speaking with my father just now and he stated that one of his coworkers brought in a 9mm Shirld and bragged that he paid $800 for it at Don's Guns... Father said he had the gun in hand and his receipt...

    Now - I love my Shield .40... But no way in hell would I have paid $800 for it!!

    If I get my hands on another I'll certainly be looking for an idiot from whatever village he came from....

    Wow.

    Was that a panic buy or somebody that has never heard of Google? On second thought: I have an in-law that, when he decides he's going to buy something, price-be-damned. I don't think it was him though. As far as I know he doesn't care anything about guns. :D

    Wow. I just picked mine up this morning from my LGS for $382. I've been waiting since Oct. for him to get one but I guess it's worth the wait.

    I head over to Rockville and Parke county several times a year. If you don't mind posting it here or sending it to my Inbox, what is the name of your local gunshop out that way? Thanks......

    I had been on a waiting list at my LGS since last fall. They finally called me last week and said mine was in! Bad News, they wanted $467+ tax. I passed as i had purchased a p938 in the interim. Should have gotten the shield and doubled my money!

    The only thing positive about this is that there is someone out there has has woken up and bought a gun for the first time(i'm hoping this is the case since he went to dons). Sure its a crazy price, but lets hope this dude is realizing this country is in for some serious crap and needs to protect his family or himself. On the flip side.....

    I had a customer come in today to trade a gun. In the case was a box of S&B 40 S&W FMJ with a Don's price tag that read $39.95! :rolleyes:
