Hey Everyone!
I have been reading posts on THR for a few weeks now trying to gather some information. I finally decided to join and make some posts myself.
I've recently found a new blued Ruger P95 9mm for $319.00. From what I can tell, the price seems pretty fair to me. However, I am concerned that I will be underpowered. Maybe ya'll can help me out?
I am wanting a handgun for 3 main reasons: Home defense, carry in car, and a hiking companion (for both 4 legged and 2 legged predators. We live in Georgia so the most we will ever see will be the occasional black bear.)
Having said that, is a 9mm too limited? An officer-friend of mine said that she will never go back to the 9mm after having been issued her .40. My price range is around $350 and I haven't seen any quality .40s other than the Taurus models.
Sorry for all the details. Just figured I'd lay it all out there and see who bites.
Thanks!
