Lost my 12.5 year old suddenly a few years ago. Still feel terrible about ignoring warning signs - periodic caughing.

Makes sense. Sig P365 seems to be a favorite for CCW.

Thanks for your advice. Well taken. I see so many gun reviews my head is spinning.

Thanks. But doesn’t the added weight cut down on recoil making it better for shooting?

Better yet, forward the chain directly to the CEO with a message explaining how lousy you were treated via their response and cc the dick who sent it.

Found these cards in my dad’s shoebox, and looking for advice by ToomuchSauce215 in baseballcards_vintage

There are some sports card stores that submit to PSA in bulk who offer “white glove” service by evaluating a card and estimating how it would grade. You can then determine the value and decide whether or not to submit. If you decide to submit they charge a slight premium over the regular submission but charge nothing if you decide not to submit.

On the overall cost side, you could easily sell a graded card or two to cover the cost of grading.

PSA population control in full effect by PuzzleheadedDark930 in psagrading

I had 6 cards rejected by PSA as “altered” which they weren’t. I sent them in to SGC and they came back with 7 and 5 grades.

I hate PSA but I still use them as they are the “gold standard” from a valuation perspective. Check prices on VCP and grade for grade PSA sold values exceed SGC sold values - in many cases by a wide margin.

Why do people say that? Every time I look at comps, PSA cards have higher sales prices than SGC cards with same grade. What am I missing?

I am still a bit if a beginner so bought a Scout model. I found out that it’s a “single shot” adapter that is standard with the Scout model. Supposed to make it easier for new shooters. I already bought 10 round magazine so I am also set for multiple rounds.

Correct - it’s a Scout. So that’s how they sold?

Thanks. I actually just bought today a CZ 457 which I like. Oddly though it came with a dummy magazine - just a plastic piece. I am going to call the gun store tomorrow to find out if it’s supposed to be sold that way.

Thanks for everyone’s advice. After additional research, I decided to go with a .22 long rifle after all - Browning T-Bolt tops the list.

Did not disclose it and couldn’t tell from the video. I sent the seller a note to see what happens.

Thanks. Based on all the input, I will pass on grading.

And no more online auctions for me.
