I have a few questions that maybe most of you that have been shooting for a while can help me with. I'm 22 yrs old, and recently started shooting. I own a Dan Wesson .357 supermag revolver witha 4 in. barrel, a smith and wesson 1911 and a Kimber 1911 which i love both of these babies. But i recently attained my concealed weapons permit and niether of the three guns i own are, lets say easy to conceal. I have a craze for .45's and don't want anything less, unless someone can give a good alternative. I've been considering a SW99 .45 asp, even though it's made by walther the barrel and slide are made by S&W this gun has a lot of feature and feels good in the hand, i'm also looking at HK Compact .45 USP, which is a amazing gun but a bit high priced. So if anyone can help me with the following question: 1) What compact .45 would you recomend and why? 2) Is their a recomendable alternative to a .45? 3) Recomendations for concealment? 4) The price range below $600. I like the SW99 and the HK, very much but since i'm new in the shooting game would like a more experienced person's opinion, due to the fact that the people i consult with are 9mm lover and seem to go towards glock which doesn;t really call my attention.
