New Glock 43

I just bought a new Glock 43 and will be looking for pocket holsters. Last time I went to the HoCo show there were plenty to choose from.

Thanks for the info, I'm interested, 43 won't mexican carry as easy as the 26.

 

[originalsuspect]

Thanks for the advice.

Got word, the kid and his wife will be coming down on Saturday. Looks like I'll be at the show on Sunday now.

Hopefully Shooters Discount will be there but up to this point it has been a VERY TRYING TIME AND DIFFICULT ENDEAVOR with things STILL to be worked out and worked on later this evening (as of typing this, it's 11:20 PM now).

Lou, i hope everything is alright! i hope you can make it,

I'm already set up now and home. It was just a REAL ROCKY start yesterday and it got much worse before it got better.

One general piece of advice: never buy a knife at a gun show. I don't understand how the knife vendors can price they way they do at gun shows when you can get the exact same knife on amazon for literally, not figuratively, half the price.

Then I guess knife vendors don't "CUT" any deals.

That was a rather SHARP tongued reply.

 

[Uncle Duke]

A bit edgy also.

You've been waiting 3 years to use that one, haven't you?

 

[DollZ]

Thanks for the advice.

Thank YoU for asking these questions, this will be my husbands and my first gun show

I have my HQL number but no card yet, does this mean we can only look around? Or do vendors accept HQL numbers?

Does sound like there will be a lot to see and learn even if that is all we can do
Thanks Folks

 

[JamesH]

Most shops require HQL in hand. Someone will be along shortly to say it's illegal otherwise. Someone else will tell you that any reasonable place will take just the number. But most will require the card to submit paperwork, right, wrong, or otherwise.

That said, some places (many? most?) will let you put down a deposit to guarantee price and reserve the product while you wait. But you won't be able to do paperwork or start your 8-day wait without your card.

 

[ShafTed]

Anyone passing through be sure to stop by and say hello at the MSI table.

 

[DollZ]

Thanks so Much James!

Ted Will Definitely check out the MSI

I have my HQL number but no card yet, does this mean we can only look around? Or do vendors accept HQL numbers?

As per the MSP Firearms Dealer's Seminar last August (2014) straight out of Captain Thompson's mouth, the HQL MUST be present in physical form (in hand) at time of filling out the application; an HQL number (otherwise no physical HQL present, is a NO-GO). Just think of it as a driver's license; if you get pulled over while driving and don't have your driver's license with you, it's very possible you're going to be arrested, though in most cases, only a summons is issued and you'll have to go to court to fight it. So HQL in hand is a must to purchase a handgun.

 

[j_h_smith]

Could a buyer lay a way the firearm, until the HQL arrives. Maybe a 99% deposit on the firearm? Just so it can't be said the firearm was actually purchased before the HQL had arrived.

Just a thought.
