Hi,
I have got one more permit to purchase a handgun and I am trying to decide what would be the wisest purchase. Yes I live in a state that requires you to go through some lengthy paperwork to obtain permits each time you wish to buy a handgun.
This will likely be my last handgun purchase for at least the next two or three years.
I have really gotten into practical shooting. Thus far I have only shot handgun matches. Next month I am shooting a shotgun side match with my worked over Remington 870. I am dying to try a three gun match. I am currently waiting for my Stag Arms model 3L to arrive.
I have been thinking about taking the big plunge and getting an STI Edge in .40 caliber, but I still wince at the price ($2,100) for a gun that will have it's usage l;imited to gun games. However, I thought I could use this gun for USPSA when I decide to advance to limited division and possibly use it in three gun?????
Anyhow here is what is in my current collection:
1) H&K .45 USP Tactical
2) Caspian .45, bomar sights (used for bullseye)
3) Ruger MK II .22 w/ ultra dot, trigger job and Clark 6 1/4 barrel
4) Kimber Royal II .45 (customized)
5) Dan Wesson Razorback .10MM
6) Beretta Elite II 9MM
7) Colt Combat Commander .45
8) Ruger Redhawk .44 Mag
9) S&W 686 .357 Mag
10) S&W M&P Pro 9MM
11) Springfield Armory XD .40 Tactical (worked over by Canyon Creek)
12) Sig Sauer 229 .40
13) Bersa .380
Currently I use the XD 40 to shoot USPSA production with my handloaded .40 lights. Eventually I will switch over to the S&W 9mm.
Not sure I would want to use the Kimber .45 in any gun games unless I bought a new safe queen (maybe an Ed Brown
)
But maybe spending excess of $2,000 on a pistol is a bad idea and I should get a nice S&W M&P in .40 (holds 15 rounds in the mag)
I am also trying to get my hands on another AR before it's too late.
Thanks for listening to me and please let me have your thoughts based on the above.
