I'm not asking about what's the best 9mm in your collection, I'm asking what's the next 9mm pistol you intend to buy and why? Did a gun rag do a write up on something new and catch your eye? Are you going to buy one to complete a collection, to match a .40 or a .45? Did the manufacturer just...

Is the Galco a good fit for a Springfield 1911 Full Size? Does the thumb break latch in this combination? I like the adjustable screws, but wonder about the depth. Anybody carry in this combination? ------------------ Take the long way home...

I guess I'm gonna break down and buy me one of those plastic guns. I've held out forever but now am thinking that if I want to add a .40 to my lineup, I'll try one of these new fangled guns. In automatics, I already own 9mm compact, a 9mm full size, a .45 compact, a .45 1911 full size, and a...

I traded in my .40 cal Ruger on a Springfield 1911 the other day and it leaves me without a .40 in my lineup. I'm not so much interested in a .40 as a carry gun, I'm more interested in having one that I can take to the range and put a whole bunch of holes in the X-Ring. I seldom (never) pay...

Just bought a NIB Springfield 1911 A1 Full Size. Got the Parkerized finish with cocobollo grips and all the loaded extras. I love this gun. Why didn't you guys tell me the 1911 was such fun years ago... :-) However, I do wish it had some serations or checkering on the front strap. I see...

The two cost basically the same money (less than a $50 difference). Two completely different styles. Both new in the box. Cougar 8045F is blue. Champion .45 is stainless. Any suggestions on which way I ought to go? I'm buying one or the other from the same dealer. This will be a sometime...

I have to face the fact that since my wife officially put her foot down and swore that there'd be no more handgun purchases, I have to choose between an expensive handgun and paying 2/3 of everything I make in alimony until my kids are out of college. Of course, she told me that three guns ago...

I just recently purchased my seventh handgun and am wondering what I should get next. I'll leave brand names out of the descriptions so this doesn't devolve into a "Sig vs Glock" or "S&W vs Colt" thread. I've currently got: 1) .45cal SA 1911-style semi-auto pistol-8rnd mag. 2) .40cal DA/SA...

I paid off a Ruger GP-100 last night (4"bbl, full lug, stainless steel 'what a gun!) and while I was there an "Astra A-100" 9mm caught my eye. It's used but in excellent condition, well maintained, and has a 17 round magazine with it. Felt good, all-steel construction, sort of a Sig looking...

I know the CZ-75 is my next purchase; the gun just welcomes me everytime I pick one up. In fact, I think it's impossible to pick one up without saying the words "oh my...". What I don't know is which finish to buy. They make the CZ guns in Black Polymer, Glossy Blue, Satin Nickel, and a...
