I know this has been discussed before, but in the ever changing handgun market, recency and relevancy usually go hand in hand. So enjoy the discussion.
I will be buying 4 handguns: One for each of 3 groomsman and one for myself. They will probably all match. I already have a reliable source for very high quality laser marking for free. I am on a bit of a budget (the fiancé said to spend what I want, but she doesn't mean it). I personally would like to be comfortably below $200 each after background check and transfer fees (if any). I am not opposed to used, but getting 4 of anything used in good aesthetic condition will be challenging.
I am open to nearly any caliber and style, but here are a few I have looked into (feel free to suggest more!):
.38 revolvers
.380 minis
subcompact 9mm
Here are the requirements:
I'll start it off with one:
Kel-Tec PF9

Here are the requirements:
- Inexpensive (absolutely not more than $225)
- Good looking (I know... it is subjective)
- Reliable (As you would expect for the price range, not expecting H&K)
I'll start it off with one:
Kel-Tec PF9
- $216 at CTD... Nearly exceeding the upper price cap with a BR check.
- Looks great!
- Kel-Tec has an excellent reputation for reliable firearms, and their product line is consistent in quality.
- Another benefit: this little pistol actually has sights, unlike many guns this size
