Yep I have a lc9. It is one of my carry guns and shares time with my xdsc as my primary carry gun. It is much easier to conceal then the xd is. Shoots pretty accurate for a subcompact.
No my gas station I go to is on 237 in berea. There are three of them on the same triangle intersection one has a gun buster sign and I refuse to go there. The one I go to had a attempted robbery stopped by a patron who had a ccw. From what the kid told me a guy came in the store pulled a gun and started waving it at everyone inside. A man waited for the robber to turn back toward the register when he did the guy pulled his weapon and stuck it in the robbers back and told him to put his gun down. he did and was held for the police. Or so the kid behind the counter told me when I asked about the sign.
I don't think we have one anywhere near me? I will have to check. I use a certain gas station by me because he has a BIG sign on the door that reads "we welcome ohio chl holders" with the green circle around the gun.
On the 9x18 it depends on the condition and make but they sell at the shows for $225-$285. And what everyone else said check armslist, gunbroker, for prices this will get you in the ballpark.
When i smacked the guard rail with mine, it had around 50,000 on it after 4 years of riding. They are great bikes. A guy I use to ride with had one with over 90k on it and very hard miles/track days before it needed any internal work done.
I loved that bike. Wish I never crashed it mine was a 2000 1200 with a stage two holeshot kit. Progressive 420 rear shock, stiffer front fork springs. And the naked conversion with some other brake mods. 125 bhp and 90 ft lbs she was a nice sleeper.
I have plenty of bottled water for that. It makes me proud when my 11 year old can hit a dime with iron sights from 50+feet. I am almost ready LOL! just need water filter and a few more mre's.
