Will probably pick up a Buck Mark .22. Also looking for a pistol for range use/car gun/house gun that may see occasional carry.
Guns I plan to look at:
Bersa .380 Thunder - So affordable that I may get one if I like it - Everyone else seems to. Not the ideal caliber for any protection duties, but not a bad plinker. Or I may wait and order a CZ-83 online for a .380.
CZ-75B - Standard or Compact model. I've been keeping an eye out for one with a decent out of the box DA trigger, they all seem awful. :banghead:
Ruger P345 - Haven't owned a .45. I like these, but have heard the triggers can be bad. Bigger than I want for CCW but great for defense and seems like it'd be fun at the range. Ammo cost kinda high. Rugers tend to be solid.
Kahr K9 - Never handled one. But I like the idea of the same smooth DA pull for every shot and that it could be a carry gun + car gun + house gun due to it's size. Kinda pricey - could practically get the P345 and Bersa for the price of the K9.
Springfield XD9 Bi-Tone - If all the above don't work out, the Springfield feels right in my hands and gets overwhelmingly positive press except for the finish. I can avoid this problem with the Bi-Tone.
Any advice on any of the above guns appreciated!
