Edit: didn’t mean to double post. Didn’t think my first attempt posted. You could be missing out on a good selection of micro nines if that niche appeals to you. Otherwise I’m not sure it matters to average shooters. I prefer the feel and more commonly included manual safety option of...

I have a fondness for the feel of hammer fired designs and I like a safety on a carry pistol. I am not skilled enough to see a practical difference in performance just due to the difference in feel though. Really happy with the Ruger Max 9 striker fired, but pretty sure I’d like any micro 9 in...

Sounds like my kind of place. I love places with a lot of stuff to look at and things to do where people will let me explore at my own pace. I go to Nashville occasionally, but haven’t had the opportunity to check it out yet. I enjoy Lenny Magill’s content online too.

Only thought I have having only seen it on YouTube is that I really want one. I like the idea of an aluminum grip frame more than the polymer grip modules of the 2011 styles. All spoken out of ignorance though since I haven’t shot any type of single action double stack nine - not even a Hi Power.

I will admit that I always look to see what model is being used and I sometimes look to see if a single action is cocked or not, but I never pay attention to the trigger or round counts in movies.

I don’t own one, but always have wanted one. I have a strong preference for pocket carry over any other form of holster carry - even if it is heavy in the pocket. I haven’t bought one only because it has such a specialized use, but having a small .45, .44, or .357 caliber available is...

I like manual safeties on carry guns, including those carried for hunting. I wanted an PDP for a long time until I realized they didn’t have a safety option. I understand, since modern teaching says no safety is better, but I swim against that current. Other than my carry, my range guns are...

I carry a P229 in .40 on occasion. It’s an oldie without a rail that was my primary carry, but I moved to a smaller 9 with an optic. The P229 has tritium sights that lost their glow a long time ago, but I added a laser guide rod and have been carrying it again in a Summer Special holster.

I shoot the Max 9 very well and like the way it looks and conceals. It certainly is nothing fancy, but few of the Tupperware pistols are. Unfortunately I paid quite a bit more for mine, but have always been glad I got it. Haven’t tried, or want to try, any of the other micro nines.

I’m not up to date on the Tomcat, but I’m pretty sure California requires a magazine disconnect safety and loaded chamber indicator.

I wouldn’t either. Often thought about buying the barrel for my P229, but the .40 ammo has always been cheaper and I’ve just never made the move. I still think I will try it at some point soon.

I’ve mostly only had one. SIG P229 in a Summer Special holster. The original Trijicon night sights lost their glow years ago, but I installed a laser guide rod and it keeps on trucking. I may be one of the few hangers on with the .40 S&W.

Only one I have is a G20 Gen. 4. It’s also the only Glock I have. I don’t hunt, so that is not a consideration for me. I like the weight, size, capacity, and accuracy well enough that I stopped right there with the 10mm. Ammo and components are just too expensive to take on more to feed...

I always clean first. I don’t do a detail strip, or even understand why some do so with a new gun, but I do a field strip, clean, and oil.

Short fingers here. I actually shoot my Max9 better than most larger guns. For that reason, I won’t be rebounding to something larger. It’ll be the Max9 until I wear it out or run into some functional issue with it.

I like magnums more from having the option to shoot high energy loads if I want to, but most of the time I don’t want to. The strength debate doesn’t mean much to me personally. I like the looks of both, but am more drawn to the 629 and so that is what I have. I also love what I perceive as...

I think both are great. About the only real difference is that the .41 Mag can send hollow points further down range at effective velocities if that is desired. I have no experience, but my understanding is that a standard pressure hard cast .45 Colt wadcutter will take down most anything. If...

About 10 years ago I decided I wanted an older Model 29, but pricing was already getting higher than my want at the time. Saw a beautiful Model 57 for a great price and bought it instead. Love the thing and load for it to shoot a lot of 210 grain Keith bullets right at 900 fps mostly. Have...

Never used mine for anything. I suppose it would be good to have one in the event the lock self-activates, but I haven’t had that happen so far.

2-3/4” Security Six with the original grip. As much as the world hates that tiny grip, me and my stubby fingers love it. Small and handy, yet I shoot it as accurately as any full size handgun I’ve tried.
