.40 S&W 50 Rnds for $14.99... better than wally world.

I picked up a WWB 100 rnd box there a week ago for $27. The box was dropped and was missing 5 rnds. Nice discount.

Where did you see .40S&W 50 rounds for $14.99? It shows $19.99 on what I'm seeing.

Pocket holster? Have one. Works okay.
I assumed a holster. It still makes me uncomfortable. I guess, if it was leather, and custom fit for the gun, then maybe, but the typical "size 4" holster from Mike's made to fit any pocket gun... not so much.

Re: Academy: 9 handguns on sale February 6-12, 2011.

I love the 238, but don't consider it a 'pocket' gun. The 1911 style of condition 1 would scare me in my pocket (as opposed to a good holster IWB or OWB).

I ended up with a little Taurus TCP. It's an ok little 380, but also has hardly any sights. I don't hardly ever carry it though... it was a waste of $300. Every time I reach for it, I think, "How will I feel if I need to use a weapon to protect myself today? WilL I be glad I grabbed this TCP, or would I wish I had just taken one of the Glocks?" :)

The $8/50 9mm even in steel is good.
Yeah, I'm considering going by and getting about 500 rounds of .223 at that price. I've been making an effort to keep more ammo on hand lately, and .223 is one of those that I'm trying to build up a stockpile of.

For that, go here:

The PMC or Fiochi would be an even better deal. 500 rounds for $160-$175. The Academy prices would be $200.

The ammo isn't too bad either.
The $8/50 9mm even in steel is good.
