Hi
If you could own a Machine Pistol, would you choose that as your nightstand pistol or stick with the semi auto?
I understand that many people have reservations with machine pistols (MP). However, after owning a couple and practice shooting them, I can see their obvious advantages for high capacity and controlled burst options. Specifically talking about the Glock 18 and the CZ 75 Auto.
That said, the options are quite limited. Whereas, in semiautomatic pistols you can have your pick. Remember there is no compulsion to always use MP on fully automatic mode. You can use it on semi and only switch to automatic when and where required.
My top contenders in semiautomatic for nightstand are Sig Sauer P226, HK p30 and Mark 23 (for its reliability, control-ability and suppressor where possible). Many people dismiss Mk23 as a novelty gun BUT it is far from it. If you have owned it (not just handled or used it occasionally on range) and used it you will most likely agree with me when I say it is a very smooth shooter with super durability and yes it can also take 45 supers- especially resting on the night stand it is nothing to be ignored. My only issue with it is the HK proprietary laser etc. ridiculous!
Thoughts?
