I don't believe accuracy should factor into your consideration since almost all SD scenario occurs in distance of 5-7 yards of less. Even a Hi-Point out of the box can hit a great group at that distance. If one has trouble with this distance, I can guarantee it's the shooter's problem, not the...

HK P7, any model.

The same reasons some people prefer BMW over a less expensive Infiniti with similar performances. That is, what makes no sense to you makes perfect sense to others.

Montana Senators Tester and Baucus already straightened this situation out a few months back.

Think of Glock like a Honda that has less safety features but proven reliable; and XD like a Hyundai with more features for the same or lower price but not as long a track record.

Usually I tell people: Don't pistol-whip someone, it might scratch the finish on your gun! But the Hi-Point is actually designed for just for that purpose.

I am on the OP's side. DO CARRY the .22 as a CCW if you think it's the best option for you. I will take a .22 on me over a .45 that's too big, too much hassel, or too lazy, to carry any day. Walther P22 and Sig Mosquito are the most common choices but they are big guns. Beretta makes a few...

Learned shooting rifle on a Henry Lever Action. Subsequently picked up an Anschutz 1710 D KL, the most beautiful and meticulously made rifle I have EVER laid my eyes on. Later acquired a CZ 452 Lux for about the 1/3 of the price of the Anschutz and it shot just as well! For their respective...

Let me guess. You are both right handed? Missing low and left is common for almost all right-handed shooters. Slow down on the trigger a little, try to squeeze the trigger slowly. Jerking the trigger hard tends to pull the front sight low and to the left. I wouldn't worry about the gun too...

Conditions I, II, and III carries refer to 1911-style handguns, i.e. single action only trigger with a cocking hammer, and further, the thumb safety CANNOT be engaged while on condition II. The reason condition II is dangerous is therefore two-fold. 1: With a round in a chamber, you MUST drop...

Personally, I take it as a sign of quality products when something requires a break-in period. That means various components machined precisely and fitted together with very tight tolerances. My Kimber had a few FTEs initially but has been flawless ever since. So count me in as a believer.

Don't worry about it, dude. I have a Pro Carry II, the first few hundred rounds were rough, I was banging my head about it. Once I got past the break-in period, it was flawless. Them things cost a pretty penny for a reason.

Single stack magazine is fine by me. I only carry 1911s and my PSP without any extra magazines. In my opinion, if it's a gun fight that takes more than 1 magazine, then it is probably a gun fight you shouldn't be involved in anyway. I am not Rambo and I am not Johnny Law. Defense...

Why do we have an ammo shortage that allows some dealers to jack up the price? Look at your ammo pile at home and then look in the mirror.
