Personally I think you ALL got it wrong. Look at your better half, is she slim & fast, or "wider but slower"? You got your preference there. Say no more.

Just picked one up in 454 casull. I placed the order with a LGS 2 years ago and finally Rossi made another product run.

The Shield 45 is surprisingly soft shooting, easy to carry IWB, and it's my carry gun.

I have Shield in 9mm, 40S&W, and .45acp. The Shield 45 is the softest shooting, most accurate among the 3. IMO, the Shield 40 recoils too violently to be a carry gun. I shot it multiple times and each time, the recoil made my thumb hit the magazine release and the magazine is ejected.

Just ordered a CZ75 compact for $629 but I'm in People's Republik of California.

The Ruger-only 45 Colt can be loaded to a much higher pressure than the SAAMI number you quoted above. I like the flexibility range of 45 Colt, anywhere from a cowboy load to a bear load. For a medium range load on my Ruger Blackhawk 45 colt/ 45 acp convertible to a 350 grain bear load I used...

I took my 454 SRH to an outdoor range the other day, I used 325 gr shooting a steel target out at 100 yds. Later I went up to the target and found it punched 2 holes clean through. Impressive!

I agree with this. (Post #53 by Safety First) Just yesterday I went to the range and shot my shields in all 3 calibers for comparison. My accuracy are .45 Shield >> 9mm >> .40S&W I was equally surprised the .45 Shield has a low recoil & smooth shooting. It's a winner.

This is AMERICA! Get what your heart tells you. No matter what you decide, make sure you get a FULL SIZE gun!!

Get a .45ACP/ .45LC Ruger blackhawk convertible. Best of both worlds.

Same with Alabama Edit: somehow the quote did not show up. I was referring what kcofohio said, to still need to fill out the forms except on page 2 they denote you have a CCW so no need for a background check. In reality, most FFL do it online so a background check takes merely seconds...

Fxvr5, Thank you!! It just goes to show you good idea was discovered in 1963!. :rofl:

I don't get this obsession trying to make 9mm a be all and end all cartridge, even want to compete with the .357 magnum. To me, if wanting to duplicate a .357 magnum in a semi-auto, I'd start with the .357 Sig. For one, it has more room to load and burn the extra powder where the 9mm does not...

I use an Excel spreadsheet to keep track of my ammo purchases and inventory. I am pleasantly surprised of my inventory. How much did you ask? I can only say I hurt my back as result of moving these ammo during my last house move. I also use it for "gap analysis" see which caliber I can...

Love my 45ACP/ 45Colt convertible

But surely there are anecdotal evidence such as news articles on gun owners killed in a self defense situation because he only carries a 5 round revolver. After all, “there are dozens & dozens of examples....” available

Please provide statistics of gun owners who are killed in gun fights because they did not carry enough rounds with them.

Walt, I have a FNS-40. Does this mean I can buy a 9mm conversion barrel and drop into the FNS-40? If so, who sells the FNS conversion barrel?

I’d do business where the owner tries to do the right things

I had put in my address incorrectly (wrong street number - new house), fortunately the UPS guy recognized my name and brought them to the correct house ! (I was ordering a lot to meet the end of 2017 deadline then). Also kudos to Midway, I had another package returned to them because of wrong...
