I didn't read "redneck" or "thug" community in the description so I wouldn't hold my breath.


You could say that about any sport you blithering idiot.

Is there a gun range around you where you can rent a few things, see how they feel to ya?

We can make recommendations, but at the end of the day, it's what feels most comfortable for you to shoot, that's within your price-range.


There are a few places that I plan on going. I just wanted to hear recommendations from the community.

So, I have the gun flu now and I'm dropping cash. I recently bought a Benellli Supernova and fired about 75 shots in it yesterday. Fantastic shotgun and well worth the money. Now, I'm looking to expand my collection (currently have a .22 ruger revolver, and 2 shotguns now).

I've been looking around and some of the models I've heard that these are the cream of the crop:

Browning Hi-Power (I've heard that this is the best 9mm of all time)
Sig P226 (I've held this and the P229 and they are very comfortable guns
HK P30 (really pricey for a polymer frame gun, but that's HK for you)

Unfortunately, these are around a grand and I'm not sure that I'm willing to drop that kind of money even though these guns are amazing. I'd like to add that I'm a fan of steel frames. They are a bit heavier, but I like that in a handgun.

One gun that I've heard great things about is the CZ-75b. They say that it was based off the Browning, but it's considerably less expensive (around 560ish). I need to fire this, but I was wondering if anyone has any experience with these. Also, I'm looking for some recommendations (cheaper guns or why it's worth to drop 1k on your first gun).

PS: I'm not a fan of Glocks for two reasons. They don't fit comfortably in my hand and I like to have an external hammer (silly, but it's an aesthetics thing).


what are you buying a handgun for
recreational, home defense, or concealed carry
what is your budget
what caliber do you prefer

Definitely reliable. Never have had a problem.

And like he said, it is comfortable to hold and not hard to keep in my glove compartment with a concealed weapon permit.

yes
it is very reliable
but for the weight, price, and size
there are definitely better guns
there are too many varieties nowadays
only people still buying those for $900+ are people buying into the hype that their still worth their price

i wouldnt spend more than $700 on a 226 or 220

and in a gun state that allows concealed carry
that state most likely does not require you to have a concealed license to carry a gun in your car

your car is considered an extension of your home
you just cant have it out in plain view
