RatMotor said:Those Kimber's and Sigs look badass, but pricey. Forgive a possibly naive question, but what does a $1000 gun get you versus a $500 gun(Ruger, Glock, etc) Weight, accuracy, capacity, reliability, craftsmanship?
:rock: :rock:Black1 said:There are many reasons..... QUALITY, and Craftsmanship are two of the big reasons to buy a more expensive gun.
Like shopping for Lasik Eye Surgeons...... I wouldn't necessarily want to "skimp". If you saw a Lasik place advertising $10 eye surgeries, would you go there?
......... I wouldn't go cheap on my firearms either.
Glock is a good gun.... Kahr is a good gun (my first gun was a P40).... Hell, even Taurus has some good pieces.... But, you wont see ANY of those in my cabinet now. :dontknow: ... Just my 2 cents.
(OH, and you were looking at RETAIL pricing...... I know that I can get a Sig P229 for about $700 all day long )
areuv said:Sig Sauer everytime, only if you want the best, I have owned just about every make of handgun through out my life, the first gun I ever bought was a Sig p220, every gun I got after that wasn't impressive, the sig is the best combat handgun there is, H&K is a close second, the germans know how to cars and guns, to me sig=mercedes
Django said:Yo Rat,
You might want to go to your local shooting range and rent a few different brands and models and really know (with) which one you're most comfortable...
Alot of folks have their preference... But you need to find yours after some hands on experience.....
Shooting ranges rent all kinds of handguns.... Try 'em all.... But remember that if you have kids in the house to lock your piece away from them... We'd hate to see any horrifying reports of firearm mishap....
I shoot GLOCKS myself...... They're really simple and kinda idiot proof.... Some guys don't like the hard trigger pull...You can fix that with a little work, but I think it's a little safer myself....
Also understand that in The People's Republic of California you cannot load more than 10 rounds into your pistol and be legal..... Many guys say screw that shit and import hi-cap mags from other states... Then say that they bought 'em before the gun ban....(right)
I do like GLOCKS.... we have 3......... a 9mm for my wife and I have a 2 gun rig with 40cal left and .45 right.
My backup piece is a 4inch S/W model 29........... .44mag.
Good luck with your search...... Be careful, my friend..... BTW, you'll need to take a brief gun safety test and pass it in order to purchase a handgun in California....

Nowwhat said:When did it become illegal to load more than 10 rounds...?...I know you can't buy hi cap mags in State....but I have 13 rounds in my Glock 23 and several back up mags....I bought them all in '93.....:dontknow:
Back on topic....if you don't shoot a lot a Glock is a great choice...not as accurate but ones at the range have 10,000+ rounds through them without as much as a cleaning...

Nowwhat said:personally Rugers don't do it for me...the trigger action is like snapping a piece of glass...
for a nice big gun....H&K USP .45....smooth....accurate....reliable...
