This is my first post after discovering this board a couple of weeks ago. Seems to be alot of very interesting and informative posts.
I have been primarily a revolver shooter for over 30 years and haven't done much shooting of any kind in the last 10 years. I have owned several .38/.357s but mostly .22 LR for the cost benefits of pure plinking pleasure.
For about the last 6 months I have been trying to decide if I want to get a new handgun and if so, revolver or semi-auto. I have considered a snub nose .38/.357 (S&W 13,36, 60 or Ruger SP101 or maybe a Taurus ?)
At the same time, I have been thinking about and looking at a variety of moderately priced 9mm sem autos. That is the question I have today. What are your opinions of Ruger P95, CZ 75B, CZ 100(DAO-but has adjustable sights) and Stoeger Cougar. I have not shot these but have handled them and they are all less than $400(OK CZ 75B is about $410).
My primary use for this gun is not Self defense or CCW, but mainly just for plinking or carrying when fishing,walking in the woods.
I am looking for any input on the above guns or any other suggestions/recommendations you might have for a reliable and accurate 9mm in the under $400.00 range.
Thanks again for any information.
