Can't believe no one's mentioned the Springfield EMP. Everyone seems to rave about them, except about the price tag.

Local Wal Mart yesterday...

Snapped this at our local Wal-Mart yesterday...

If the OP's buddy wants a semiauto, he's not going to buy a shotgun or revolver no matter what some dudes on the Internet say. I was a new shooter not long ago, I would certainly recommend a 9mm, good all around and cheap. Plus why would a new guy want to buy used? Maybe he could find one, but...

I just shoot for recreation at a range. I like it because it is a challenge of hand/eye coordination, and to practice a skill and succeed makes me feel good. It also is an interactive sport that takes my mind off things and reduces stress. I also got into shooting b/c I'd like to compete in a...

Man this would be a sweet looking gun w/o that huge scope rail...any word if there are plans to make one w/o it?

Moonclip, I have stood in the lane next to a Five-Seven shooter... The Five-Seven is *LOUD*. I could feel it in my gut standing next to the shooter. I've stood the same distance from other rounds (.380, 9, .40, .45) and don't get near the same reaction. A really loud crack and a shock you can...

Thanks everyone for your responses... I really asked the question more for target reasons than tactical ones, since I do mostly slow-fire on targets. Besides practicing my technique, think I'm going to try some different brands of ammo and different loads to see if I notice any differences...

I've never heard a bad thing said about them online. I've shot one and like it a lot... it is a very solid little pistol and is a great deal IMO. Hers is still breaking in, and had one or two bobbles, but that was w/ Wolf ammo and it hadn't been cleaned after a few range trips, so I give it a...

If a pistol with fixed sights is calibrated so POI matches POA at 25 meters, would there be much difference at 7 or 10 yards? How much of a correction would you expect, if any?

I am in! Just picked this new P-01 up! Cleaned it, took it to the range, cleaned it again... and am still smiling like an idiot. This is the first handgun I've owned, I got it after trying about half a dozen different models or so... Sorry about the bit of blurriness... was just a quick snap.

Yeah, the PCR and P-01 seem to have gone up in price (while I'm waiting for my permits to clear...grrr) My local shop wants $520 for the P-01 and am looking to buy this week... so if anyone knows of a better deal and wouldn't mind dropping a hint... much obliged.

Plus the Sigma still has the $50 rebate and 2 free mags... so that's $249 w/ 5 mags?! geez... that is cheap.

LOL Lone Haraguer... was that you staring at my bugeye a few months ago? It took me a while to figure out "I shouldn't feel like this, what the heck is the matter?!?!" ...bingo... no more of that! :-)
