    Taurus PT-145

    Thanks for all the input. I was thinking the same Gambit. I started out with a truly quality handgun in the Sig. I DO want a compact .45 and the -145 sounds like a good carry gun according to DasFriek. I need to figure out where to ensure I get one that DOES have the DA/SA capability...

    U-87

    Well, I went ahead and purchased that U87 and I gotta say: There's good and there's bad. The good: -It DID come with 2 barrels and sling swivels and a scope mount for a pretty good price -It shoots every time and is easy to clean, simple and reliable. And I really like this quote (thanks deer...

    U-87

    Yes, definitely looks like an 870 clone to me too. -wwII U-boat images definitely add to the "cool factor" for some I'm sure. Thanks for pointing that out Wolf. :) Don't think it comes with chokes... though I imagine I'd be slugging for deer so no choke necessary as Home Defense would be...

    Got myself a CZ-82 from AIM

    I got an -82 for my mom. She LOVES it. I have a SIG p-6 and love it too. We went shooting and now I want CZ-82 for myself! Love the magazine capacity for the small size of the gun. Also seems very reliable and is simple enough for my mom (field stripping etc.). I payed $160 for it at...
