Yes, I was really curious about the “PG” “UG” difference. Thanks for that info and thank you to everyone else who responded.

I earlier read 40% of these gun sales are first time buyers. That’s a huge percentage.

To that I say, C'mon in, the water's warm. Now remember to vote against any and all Democrats because they want to take your new gun away.

I suspect this issue will swing a lot of "swing" voters our way. One thing is for sure, viz. gun and ammo manufacturers and dealers are having a banner year.

It wasn't that long ago when nobody was buying new guns. Trump was in office. Everybody had stocked up in anticipation of Hitlery being elected, etc.

Things looked bad for the gun market. Now, dealer's inventory is literally flying off the shelf.

I know, I went to my store to buy a box of buckshot, none in 12, 16 or 20ga.

I have the definitive answer, the sku that has the UG is USA made, the sku that has PG is Austrian made.

If you don’t have “enough” firearms presently you aren’t going to find many available right now.

Hasn't been too bad for me. Picking up handgun #5 tomorrow, a Ruger GP100 .357 Magnum

Also purchased a nice concealable, a Beretta 21 Bobcat, which I'll pick up in a few weeks, for gun #6

If there really isn’t a difference in quality, I think I’ll go with the US made.

Our little shop is nowhere near that in size. We don’t get that many firearms in a month to sell.

Nice choices. I also have those models. The Beretta is a lot of fun to shoot!
