Ive heard very few good things about the Sigma's. I bought mine in like 2007 I think, and have put probably close to 3000 rounds through it and never had any issues. Probably less than 10 misfires, and the only time anything like that happened, it was shooting cheap range ammo. Perhaps I got a freak model or something, but mine is reliable and accurate. Especially since I paid about $330 for it.

I had one in 40 that I took in trade for some other things and it never gave me any problems. My dad and his girls were having stove pipe issues with their Glock 17 so I traded them for the Glock and neither of us have had any issues since then with either of them. I guess the angle of the Glock 17 grip didn't agree with them or something???

Not yet, they just arrived about an hour ago. I'll be instructing again this weekend, though. Full days Sat and Sun, outdoors, rifles, probably mostly .22lr but there's always at least one centerfire (if not several). I'll report back.
This was my poverty choice. $45 shipped...not bad at all considering I spend half that for passive muffs.
I was hoping somebody would get me the sexy as all hell MSA SORDIN SUPREME III PRO+, but those SOBs are nearly $300 with the gel earcups.

Playing with them some more...I'm impressed, especially for the price.
Watching TV at a quietish/normal volume I can put them on and not hear any of the TV sound at all. Turning them and properly adjusting the volume = the TV sounds completely normal. No distortion, no lower quality, almost as if I wasn't wearing anything at all (just a small amount of background static)

My Dad has one, he's one of those people that buys everything cheap. He's got a 30 dollar shakespear rod/reel combo that is his pride and joy...but he bought a sigma a couple years ago and it's probably in the 2-3,000 round range and it's been extremely reliable. I've probably put 600-700 rounds through it and never had a failure. I also shoot pretty decent groups with it. I would probably buy one if the price was right.

Talon Grips (rubber) for my G21SF. This is the first grip mod/addition/alteration I have ever done to a Glock. For $15 I thought I'd give them a try. I went with the rubber instead of the more aggressive sandpaper finish because a lot of people said the sandpaper would rub your skin raw with IWB carry, and that an untucked cover shirt would be a lot more likely to stick to the grip and blatantly print. I am trying it on my largest model because my relatively short finger'd hands never did truly fit the double stack .45 as well as they could, so a little more gripiness wouldn't hurt. No range report yet, I just put it on. Quality seems pretty good, though. Nice fit, easy enough to install, doesn't look half-ass or anything.

I wanted the white one. Blue looks boring and low-tech.

The white is clean and subtle with its translucence; much like the "skin" used on robots or contemporary cyber apparatuses.
Feels futuristic, man.

Damn interwebs making my postings a fail
Anyways a few pictures of the web to show the products.
CZ455 LUX
This is how it came in the box except mine has 10 shot steel mag
A look at the sights
From CZUSA website
The CZ 455 is the latest generation of the CZ bolt action rimfire. The 455 model will eventually consolidate all of the receivers currently used in the 452 line into one common platform. This combined with the new interchangeable barrel system of the CZ 455 will allow the user to easily change the stock configuration as well as the caliber of the rifle. The 455 retains the accuracy and quality of the adjustable trigger, hammer forged barrel and billet machined receiver from the CZ 452. Improvements that the 455 brings include new manufacturing technology and tighter tolerances for improved accuracy and smoother operation.
The Lux model features adjustable iron sights and the “Lux” pattern stock that is designed to excel when used with open sights. A 5-round magazine is included.

WiMax, yes. LTE, not until next summer.
I suppose I could've gotten Verizon this time around and had LTE right now, but then I'd be paying more money for less data. No, thanks. I'll wait a couple of months. I use about 6 GBs of data a month, and that would run me $125 or so a month on Verizon. I get unlimited data for $90 on Sprint.Near, far, wherever you are...
