I put it on order around March I think. It will be at my FFL I hope sometime this week. If it proves to be a reliable pistol (hopefully since I waited so long it has the bugs worked out) I see myself carrying it more than any other. I carry a full size pistol on Sunday’s and Wednesday’s. Now I will sell my S&W M36 no dash to help pay if the CC.
Hope it meets your expectations, hate you have to sell the 36 since I am out of money. Keep us informed on how it does.

Surprisingly it also fits in my smaller 1911 holsters very well. I don’t pocket carry it but carry IWB as I do all of my EDC when on my Harley.
BTW, mine is an 04 Ultra Classic with 152k on it
I don’t think I will carry in the pocket as well. Just order a DeSantis thumb break for it. I am not a IWB fan so it’s thumb break OWB for me.

My first Harley was a 04 Ultra Classic , had some work done on it and it developed electrical problems with what was done. I had it fixed but never really trusted it again. Sold it about 3 months ago and bought the street glide. All the upgrades I have done with the exception of upgrading the speakers were plug and play. I went all led’s except the tri bar and that one will be upgraded when the company gets it done.

Nice score. Great gun.
It was priced right that it just couldn’t be ignored. If I had not liked it easy to get my investment back. Not I get to spend more money. :woohoo

I have experienced the same when riding my Harley. I believe in carrying on my body and it was just too much trouble between the wind exposing my weapon and the concerns over it falling out of my holster. I pocket carry and the smaller handguns work best for me in this scenario.

What Harley you have? I ride a 2013 Road King. It is funny, my pickup truck of the same year has half the miles of my Harley. I love riding.
Interesting, I have a 2013 street glide and yes I love riding as well.
