What's been going on?

Nobody is posting, come on ladies!
Update on where I am. Got my Handgun safety class over with, passed and sent for my carry permit, so now it is just a hurry up and wait.
Been going to the range at least once a week, enjoying that very much.
For Christmas my husband and son got me gift cards to Legends outdoor store so I went in today and everything in the store is marked down. I wanted a BlackHawk CQC SERPA Holster
for my J frame but they didn't have any. I ended up getting a rifle case for my Remington 22 rifle 50% off and a Red Dot sight for the Baretta U-22 Neos at 50% off.
I really don't know anything else to get, what else can ya do for a S&W 640 J frame?
Anybody got any idea's? I might have to go in and use up the rest of it in ammo LOL.

See if they have any night sights such as Trijcon to go on your S&W

I haven't tried any J-Frame grips, but you might want to look into a nice set of exotic wood(Pau Ferro, Cocobolo, Kingwood, etc.) grips for it. You can also have some custom metal checkering or engraving done on it as well as a trigger job and sight upgrade. Do a Google search for custom j-frames.

As Billy & two-70 said, look at the Crimson Trace website.

Well I put the J frame into the shop for a trigger job, I think it will make me appreciate my 640 a lot more because I really like it but it is a little stiff on the trigger. I can't wait to try it out when I get it back.
