Sedated

Wasted out her tiny mind and completely unaware of the boatload of fireworks going off in my neighborhood. That’s a good thing.

Infinity Drop Quantity

Can someone in the know share the quantities of each model when Infinity does their drops?

SV - So long as you're happy with it

The whole Infinity thing has become comical, with people now lining up to pay top dollar for literally any gun that says SV or Infinity on it. These now include guns that have been properly beaten in match competition.

For example, someone shelled out $7,624 for a 9mm Limited Minor gun worth less than half of that (before the craziness) on a good day and only because it's an SV, which have always had intrinsic value.

The gun's 40 cal sister went for $5,600. Again, twice the typical value.

Both have a fair amount of wear on their mag funnels, from plenty of dry fire drills and neither listing showed an image of a breach face or the barrel bore. Translation, high round counts. They're also listed as sight tracker guns, but I don't see any evidence of this claim.

So long as both parties are happy with their transactions is all that matters. I only wish I'd had SV build my guns back in the day, so I could make bank now.

Edit to clarify - The point of my post is...well, read it. If an automotive analogy, helps, consider the guns above as 20 year old Ferraris with 150k miles on them, that have been used up, when there are suddenly buyers willing to pay close to original sticker price for them.

Also, there are a few smiths out there who build exceptional, truly bespoke, 2011's, on par with Infinity, but most people don't know who they are, because they're one man shops and their books are locked tight as a drum. You want exclusivity and rarity...

Ambi Safety Comparison

Since I found myself with both an EGW and Wilson bulletproof ambi, I decided to make a quick comparison video. Might be helpful if you're in the market for an ambi.
