I would think that Carter would be willing to put you down on a list for his next shipment. I also saw that Kaneohe Gun Shop has one in stock (at least according to his website inventory). Not sure how much KGS is charging though. Mike at Cross Creek is really cool, I'm sure that if you sent him an email explaining that you'll be out of town for a couple of weeks, he'll try to make arrangements for you.

Yeah, on HKPro I'm HKinHI. When I registered I figured that not many people on that forum would know what a musubi is (i.e., round and white, just like me). I usually hit KHSC on weekdays, but if I go on a weekend I'll send you a PM. When I was first shopping for my P30 I went to X-Ring and remember Dexter talking up Walther. Fortunately (or unfortunately, according to my wallet) Brian had a USP and made sure that I went with the HK instead. I'd love to get more opinions on how the VP9 stacks up with the PPQ. And Sig P320, too.

BTW, after shooting the VP9 I was able to touch the front of the slide without gloves. Granted, I was shooting at KHSC pace, but I don't think that the gun got any more hot than any other gun I've ever shot before.

dwayne at danger close tactical had a sig P320
to me, it felt "nose-heavy"
it had kind of a longer slide, but a shorter grip

hdf range days and sundays at the silly side are the best times to get a shot at trying out a ppq
dexter's sold a lot of them
 
let me know if you ever make it out

Where I'm going, it's really close by to Cross Creek.  I checked LGS last week and sold out.  I can wait, more should be coming.  When I was shopping for 9mm P30L or M&P Core, or USP9 Tactical. Dex also try to convert me from buying the HK to the PPQ.  I took a breather and thought about it overnight.  Macsak posted the VP9 release that night and decision made.  When I have time, I'll thank Macsak in person.

Got my H&K VP9 this morning and made it out to Koko Head after lunch. This pic's for Macsak:

Did the VP9 shoot with your magazines loaded like that? lol

Good morning Yurcarmeean, $599 with plain black grips.  Processing the store paper work took a while.  I guess SA is still getting use to handgun purchases.

Back on topic. Got around to putting the parts together for my SPR build. Just need a scope and I'm done.

Shane - what kind of scope are you looking at getting for your SPR? I still haven't figured out what to put on mine.

Something mid range, maybe 9x or 10x max magnification. Most likely going with Leupold.

Im running a leatherwood Hi lux 1-4x on the SPR i put together.  Nice scope, clear glass, not too big, doesnt weigh a lot.
