I'm thinking about buying my first centerfire. Not going to buy right away, but probably in the next two months.
I love my Ruger 22/45 so I am definitely tempted by the P-series. I like the P944 in .40S&W but it is probably too big to be a comfortable carry pistol. I do not have my CCW yet but I will also be getting that in the next few months. I'm not completely set on .40S&W, and the P97 in .45ACP is also an option from Ruger.
I fired an H&K USP Compact .40S&W when I first started shooting (as a rental before I bought my .22) and I liked the ergonomics and the size; how well does a USP Compact work as a carry piece? That would also leave .45ACP as an option.
Since it's my first centerfire, is an H&K more money than I should be spending? The P-series pistols are quite a bit more affordable but if I want to carry concealed I will need something smaller anyway.
Enough rambling... suggestions welcome
