What's Your Next Handgun...and why?

[gregkl]

Ammo and mags. Oh wait what thread is this? The more I try different flavors the more I realize the less you have the richer the experience. Going to try to stick with what I have and burn it up.

I'm with you on this. I get caught up in the "arms race" but then I sit down and honestly assess my situation. It would be far better for me to shoot the hell out of my 1911 9mm. Eventually I may even become proficient with it.

I really like guns, but my reality is I don't shoot much and what I have spends a lot of time in the safe virtually never being used. Sure, it would be nice to have a $1300 competition CZ, but what I have is beyond my abilities anyway.

It is probably becoming apparent to some on this thread that I am a little ADD. But that's how I roll. I talk myself out of more purchases than I talk myself into.

I'm the exact opposite.

I'm the exact opposite.

And that is why you have such a nice inventory of firearms and mine is...well, meh.

I've been shopping for one of these. Have not held one yet. Hoping it's bigger than the LC9s, I'm sure it is. Beretta 92FS Compact Inox. View attachment 40777

The 92 compact is still a full sized gun. The barrel is about 3/4" shorter and the grip frame is about 1/2" shorter (13 Rd mags vs 15 in the FS) the FS mags will work I. The compact.

I try to head to the range at least a few times a month and I like to take several guns with me when I go. I like to stay with common ammo though. Makes things simpler and cheaper. So now I only have guns that shoot 9mm, 22LR, 5.56. But after 2 years of scarce ammo, I'm rethinking that. In pistol calibers .40 and .45 replaced the empty shelves long before 9mm. Lately I've been thinking about adding .45ACP.

Oh, for a minute there I thought maybe you were a Glock guy going for a 7th Glock 19, only gen 4 this time because you only have one gen 4. Gotta love those Glock guy's ability to stick to a plan.

Hehe nah that's a lot of Glocks! I have a few and my EDC has been the same G19 for years so I do like them. And I have a small sampling of other styles but they're just fun guns for me, I don't have a problem with that. I used to shoot every day, at least a mag or two. But since child #3 I got slowed way down on free time.

I need to be more like you...

CZ 97B
Ruger SP 101
S&W 4566
CZ 75 PCR

 

[mrunnebo]

I've always wanted a Desert Eagle. I don't need it but then again, I don't need anymore handguns. There is just a ton I want.

 

[mrunnebo]

And I think if your going to go with a Desert Eagle, you need to go with the 50AE. I wouldn't mind getting a Bond Snake Slayer either.

 

[Smith& W]

I`m thinking about a colt Lightweight Commander. would work out well for the few times I carry.

 

[gregkl]

I am thinking about one of these:

 

[Sling10mm]

DW Razorback because I don't have a full-size 1911 yet, and I have always wanted a 1911 in 10mm.

 

[Expat]

I don't know really... I was fondling a TRP Operator today... I am thinking about a Sig 938, but is it really a pocket pistol...
I have even wondered if I should try a Glock 19...
I have pondered selling several that I don't use and getting a Nighthawk or WC...

 

[Leadeye]

Something to fill in the gaps.

All of those are good choices!

Im still wanting a Glock 42 or 43. Looking for a Glock that's a bit easier to carry.

 

[El Pistolero]

Kel-Tec PMR-30 will be my next handgun for sure. Please allow me to explain:

1) I have always wanted an FN 5.7mm but never bought one because I don't want a gun that I can only use one type of (very expensive) ammo in. The Kel-Tec is different but compares nicely. Kind of a second kind of cool.

2) 30 rounds/mag. That is a lot of bang.

3) The thing is feather light and fairly concealable. Even with a fairly beefy Glock weapon light the weapon is very light in hand.

4) A local shop has them for $399 and includes two boxes of ammo!

I'm looking to get a Sig 226 I think. Been wanting something in da/sa for a while now. Or possibly a glock g26.

Hard to go wrong with a P226.
