I don't own a gun but i was at a shooting range with a buddy a few weeks ago. The very first gun i fired and handled was a 1911. I chose that because it had a decent weight and felt great in my hands.

I am going tomorrow to pick up my concealed carry permit and Walther PPK.
I have owned a Ruger LCP, which felt like a toy, hence why I no longer own it. I need something really small for my every day carry weapon, as my usual attire consists of gym shorts and a t-shirt. I have an old .22 Rifle, that is really my grandfather's, but I keep it and maintain it, and shoot it. That is really all I have currently, but after I get back from basic in a few months I will start my collection.
Anywho, I will post pictures tomorrow night when I get home with my PPK._C'est La Vie, C'est La Mort_Comment

As much hell as Alabama gets for a lot of things, I have to brag real quick. I have been open carrying for 2 days now. Twice I have come in contact with police officers. They looked at my gun, up at me, nod and say, "How is it going?" No drama, no asking for a permit, nothing.
After I get back from basic I am buying a 1911 that belonged to my uncle, so I am not sure what kind it is, but whatever it is, if he had it I trust him. I also want to get a Springfield XD, the debate is .40 or 357 sig._C'est La Vie, C'est La Mort_Comment

Well, that would just be to bridge the gap between my PPK/S 9mm Kurz, and the 1911 .45 ACP. It just seemed like those were the two calibers that best filled that gap.Originally posted by Pandemic View Post_C'est La Vie, C'est La Mort_Comment

Why fill the gap? You've got two of the most popular handgun ammo on the planet. If you don't already, I'd get yourself a nice .22lrOriginally posted by mr_naler View PostComment

Yep. Most people look at the .22lr as being small and useless. It's a great way to polish up your basic shooting fundamentals, the ammo is cheap and abundant, and in a SHTF situation, ammo availability is key.Originally posted by mr_naler View Post
Don't use .22lr as your carry weapon or for home defense unless it's the only thing you can fire accurately.
.22lr kills more people in the US in one year than any other caliber. It is lethal.Comment

Ah. Well what would you recommend for that purpose? I hear the Walther P22 isn't bad._C'est La Vie, C'est La Mort_Comment

Well it all depends on what you want to do. If you want to train for the look/feel of a 1911, then a .22lr 1911 is great. Same goes for any glock or other cloned model in .22lr.
If you want to get into bulls-eye shooting, look for a Ruger MK2 or MK3, Browning challenger, or Colt woodsman. Those are more for accuracy whereas the P22 and others are more for training simulation.Comment
