Against owning a gun... - Page 11

This may be coming late to the party, but don't overwhelm them with facts. Tell them to provide you with the facts. Don't allow yourself to be put on the defensive. The simple fact that there are millions of healthy, non-gunshot firearms owners puts the lie to the assertion that you're likely to get shot with your own gun.

women have been shootin and shooting well since thier inception, fire away.

You care too much about what others think... Just do it.

jennybird · 07-01-2009

So? Did you get one? Is it pink?

IndyRoadie · 07-01-2009

Yes, inquiring minds want to know!

RachelMarie · 07-01-2009

ugh...Haven't gotten one quite yet. Still shooting, still studying. I know that sounds dumb. But I really want something that I *KNOW* I like. I'm leaning towards 2 specific's but have yet to make up my mind. I gave myself I time limit though and I am giving myself until the end of July to make the final decision! I think I am putting too much thought into it.
Hours got cut at work, so now money is a bit more of a factor now too. But I'm still going to do it by the end of the month. I just need to quit being a woman and make up my mind already! I also need to find time to go out to 21st Century. I need to get on the ball.

Not dumb at all! It has to be the right gun for YOU.

So what are you shooting and/or leaning toward?

RachelMarie · 07-01-2009

It's between Bersa and a Glock 17. I'm leaning more towards Bersa....but I really enjoy a glock as well. I want both, I just need to decide which I want...FIRST! ")

This is the one I feel really comfortable with!

Have you considered the compact versions of those two choices? The Bersa Thunder 9 Ultra Compact, or the Glock 19? They will both be easier to conceal than their larger counterparts.

Just my

Too bad the new Polymer Framed Bersa wont be out by July, it's a beaut!

Oh...and FYI. My family is still not happy about it, but they know I'm still going to do it. It makes them feel better to see me going out shooting and researching my options! They haven't said much at all recently!
