For the last year or so I've been looking for a SUB-2000 configured for S&W 59 mags. If you're not familiar with this gun, it's made out of Unobtainium and milled on CNC machines powered by unicorn farts. They're hard to find.
So when I saw one on Gunbroker I was pleasantly surprised and even happier when I won the damned thing. And lo and behold, the seller was in NH! This is awesome, but he's an hour away. Normally that's not a problem but when I bought a couple of guns recently, my NICS check was delayed for three days. This has never happened to me before but the FBI for some reason recently classified me somewhere between "ISIS member" and "John Dillinger."
Why? I have no goddamned idea but if it happened on this NICS check I would have to drive home and then drive back, four whopping hours in the truck. The only way I'm driving four hours to visit a gun shop is if they have beer, strippers and free ammo.
So anyway, I sent off a check and asked him to ship it to Adam at Acme for the transfer since he's only 15 minutes or so from me. Evolution got the check, emailed to let me know and shipped it out immediately. I spoke with Mark on the phone as well and he was great to chat with. All in all it was a great transaction.
Here's his website: Evolution Armory.
And for the record, when I tried to pick it up at Acme I was delayed again. Fortunately it cleared a half hour or so later but I was already home. Grabbed it today.
