How excited am I...?

BaggyG · 08-20-2009, 06:34 PM

I just came back to the office for lunch toting my shiny new K20D and 18-55DA AL II.

All I want to do now is go home and start learning how to use it. I suspect it will be a little more advanced than my trusty *ist DS :-)

If the k20D goes off it won't leave you with a hole in your head.

I say invest in a good lock for your front door and leave the glock somewhere safe.

I don't do tupperware.

My Sigs are in the safe (along with the S&W, Walther, Browning, Ruger, Remington, and Marlins).

Hey, I'm equal opportunity...except for Glocks. I hate the way they feel in my hand.

Try DWI (online) I got my K20 there for $845 (body only) the price has now gone up to $880 but still might be the cheapest.

Thanks ozlizard.I'll take a look.That's a pretty good price,considering retail camera shops are still selling the K20D with a Sigma lens for $1400-$1500.Did you have any problems with this online company?
