After shooting for about two years and going through a wide variety of guns, I've come to realize while it is fun to 'add to the collection', when it comes down to it, there were only a few that I would count on 100% to save my life. When I say 100%, this means a gun that has never jammed or failed on me (not even once), I can shoot proficiently with, and it also needs enough stopping power of course to defend myself with. I've thought about selling this gun many times, and it also happens to be my first piece ever. At this point, I've sold all my other handguns (Kimber Custom I, XD40, Glock 19, CZ75 SP01, Kimber Ultra Carry II to name a few), and I'm left with this one. CZ-75B.
I figured with the cost of ammo at record highs with very scarce availability, I'm going to focus on shooting the gun I shoot best in the range, that I can also count on. Afterall, with the ammo situation, why spend money firing ammo down the lane you wouldn't ever use for practical applications? So there she is. It's got a custom trigger job with aftermarket main springs, hammer, polished firing pin safety block, rubber grips (taken off of my SP-01), and Tru night sights. It's my range gun, bed side gun, and defense gun.
So where do I go from here? Well, let's just say I'm already looking at my next gun. So much for consolidating down to one! Except this time, I know everything else is just going to be gravy, and every gun will serve its own purpose. I'm looking at a plinking rifle , i.e. cz452, ruger 10/22, and leaning towards the ruger. do also plan on taking a few tactical home defense/practical application courses to learn how to use my firearm in any and all situations.
Anyhow, just thought I'd share, and would love to hear other's perspectives on 'consolidating down to one". It just doesn't really happen, does it?
