Hey buckeye, since you seem to have no hesitation in parading around here with the damn guardian I was wondering what your thoughts were on it compared to the Allegiance. I haven't even been able to shoot the guardian yet, but I got to test the new Alley and I really, really like it. I'll shoot it tomorrow night and decide if I need to order one or buy the alley on the spot. Bummer is, if I do order the Guardian, I most likely wouldn't see it till February.[:@]
