Thomas’ recap

3. Go gun magnets
   1. $10 each for pre-order
   2. https://go-mags.net/products/go-magnet-triple-pack
   3. I have to order 24 to become a dealer. These are great for the back side of your safe door to hold mags/pistols, they have one side that is more powerful magnet than the other side, so you put the most powerful towards the safe metal and the gun side is the “fold”. So you do NOT need double-sided-tape

Non-group buy deals:

1. If you call du-ha and mention shotshow, you can get $50 off their underseat storage bin for pickup trucks ($150). https://www.du-ha.com/toyota-tundra-double-cab-07-16-no-factory-subwoofer.html
2. Call underwood ammo and mention shotshow for a deal, next week only. These guys started out loading 10mm to the standard and have amazing ammo for self-defense and especially predator defense

COMPLETED

1. Handouts for mental health for CCW/CFP students. Non-gov organization that won’t try to take your guns away if you need mental health help. https://walkthetalkamerica.org/
2. Wounded warrior donation for a swiss knife …for me. Last time I bought one for each of my kids, now I have one for me 🙂
3. Talked to Springfield armory about a 40sw conversion barrel for the 10mm xdm. Even if it is the same caliber, they will never send a barrel for legal risk reasons. You must send in the firearm and they will replace what is required.  So, no chance of a SA 40 SW conv barrel.  Maybe someone else will do so. I have shot several mags of 40 SW in my 10mm chamber, I do NOT recommend this, but in a pinch it “could” be done. YOU are RESPONSIBLE for YOUR SAFETY
4. Talked to SIG about a p320 45 acp that has suppressor sights & threaded barrel with 15+ capacity mags. like the fnx tactical 45 –NOT going to happen, they can not keep up with demand for 9mm p320s. Might be 10+ years.
   1. The MCX carbines were SO nice. I LOVE the grey color! May not be worth swap’n my sig 516 for an mcx, but it is on my wishlist.
5. FN will never give an “instructor discount” for the FN SCAR 17 🙁

SWAG/SPIFFs.
