Christian,
Does this mean that I shouldn't bring it them out when we next meet?
;-)
Actually, with so many LXs it was becoming harder to discern between
them. I still have to take them out to shoot. My biggest concern is
whether it will make me more noticeable when shooting. If this happens then
I will have two normal ones to use.
As you say they are still LXs ;-)
