Congratulations to Jack Rice of Marysville, CA who finally was able to get his gun. Jack won our gun drawing in July for the Walther PPQ. Since Jack lives in California, and the PPQ has not been approved for sale in California, we had to swap him out a Smith & Wesson M&P compact in .40 cal. Because of a maintenance shutdown of the Smith & Wesson factory, it took a little while for the gun to actually ship. Add to that California’s 15 day waiting period, and it has taken Jack a little while to collect his prize. He has it in his hands now and reports that it handles house loads much better than a Glock and he likes the adjustable back straps and sights better too. Glad to hear it and congratulations again.
