Thanks, Tom, and the same to you and your wife. I was in
N.Y.C. visiting my son, daughter, and new granddaughter.
It was during the transit strike but we survived. I did happen
to find the Superlube equivalent at a Radio Shack there.

One of the most unusual things I saw was a man in Columbus
Circle advertising for a wife on a poster attached to his chest;
don't think he generated any serious interest. One sees a lot
of weird things in that place; Great to be back in Texas,
though.

+1 on the H&K P7M8! I really enjoy carrying it daily.

Rocnerd,

P7M8 holster coming your way...
I'm not a gun expert -- but I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night...

The more you guys post photographs of those P7M8s, the more I seem to want one.    :-/  (So many guns . . . so little time.)   :(

Richard - a good shooting buddy of mine has had his P7M8 a year or so - and loves it but - he bought it for carry and yet now feels he cannot ''lower'' the gun to such duty!!

He has other wants too and so mentioned recently he thought of selling it, so it was not just a safe queen.

If you are interested I'll give you his email addy and you can ask him if it is available.  Anyone else for that matter.

Thanks Fly.  

Yeah, the P7M8 bug hit me good.  I ordered a new one and then this one was just asking to be bought, so now I have two.  So, now my buddy offered me a trade for one of the P7M8s.  He has a nice Beretta Storm 9mm with extras, barrel shroud, forearm handle, case, 1-20 round mag, and 2-15 round mags.  He also has a Ruger SP-101.  So, the two guns for the one.  Hmm.  Don't know if I'm sold.

Chris:

I am sorely tempted, but I had better wait until I acquire the Seecamp .380 and the Beretta Storm which I have on the horizon.  (Heaven knows, however, that those "squeeze cockers" are seductive.)

Not to be the devil ;D in the gun garden or anything Richard, but they aren't making the P7M8 anymore and this is probably the last year you would be able to order a new one.  I would imagine once the new ones are gone that the prices will be driven up further still, just take a look at the prices for the P7M10.  Anyway, just throwing that out there.
