Which gun would you buy for a first handgun?


Recommended Posts

Posted

I plan on going to a dealer and handling a few of these guns to see what is comfortable to my hands, since that is a major part of buying any weapon. I've shot many Glocks and loved them all but I want experience with more then just one maker. Im going to shoot my friends Springfield XD .40 cal to see how I like it. I was intialy stuck on only going for a 9mm, but now I am open to the possibilities to a .40. I really lilke the 9mm since it holds more rounds and has less of a recoil meaning its easier to stay on target for rapid fire. I am not a big guy at 5'6" 153lbs. I can easily handle the .40 and the .45( I shot a Lee County Sheriff's glock when I was about 12 with a 3" grouping, I dont remember the distance but all shots hit the neck like he told me to do).

What handguns do you all carry daily and what cal are they? I have a big list just because I wanted a good spread for quality to price.

Beretta Px4 Storm

Glock 17 or 22

Sig P226 X-Five Tactical

S&W SD9 ve or SD 40 ve, or the M&P line

Walther P99 AS 9mm or PPX M1

Ruger BSR 40 or SR9B

If you have any others you think I should look into please let me know.

I am liking the look of the CZ 75B and the P-09 Duty as well thanks for the advice I hadnt heard of that company before. Do you own one of those guns?

Your wanting a list of carry guns? Or range?

Compact size is what fits me good personally, the Springfield xd 9, and xdm 9 fit nice. Alot of people recommend the smith & Wesson m&p 9c.

I am biased toward this because I just got one, but a glock 19! :)

Really size doesnt bother me when it comes to carry. If they can tell I am carrying then I going to say they are less likely to try something or they are just that stupid. Plus I like have a large capacity.
