Hi all-
I am contemplating my next firearm purchase and want everyone's advice. I'm going to try and make a poll for the first time on here- we'll see how it goes.
I am currently looking for a carry gun. I want something I can conceal easily IWB. I'm either looking for a J Frame or an "Ultra" 1911. Those are the choices. Please, if you have a suggestion other than the two firearms mentioned, make sure your suggestion is offered in .357 or .45.
My best friend from High School called me up today and asked if I wanted to go gun shopping. I had things to do today, so, like any firearms enthusiast, I bumped a few things around and we went gun shopping! Long story short, I saw two guns I am interested in for Carry. The first is a S&W model 60 Pro Series. It's a brushed stainless finish, wood grips, Trijicon inserted front ramp sight and an adjustable rear sight, in 3". I LIKED that, and have been looking to get a J frame for a while now. I'm confident it will fit IWB nicely, and, IMO, it's far nicer then the "bare bones" J frames for only $60 more.
Then, the guy that knows me in the store suggested I look at a Kimber Ultra Carry II. Now, I swore after my first gun I would never buy another Kimber, but this looks nice. Sidenote- I have never had issues with Kimber's firearms, I simply had warranty work done on a magazine from a .22 conversion kit and they angered me; story for a later time). This 3" 1911 would certainly fit nicely IWB and would hold more, and it's in my favorite cartridge. It was ALL black except for the trigger. Very sharp looking.
So, please help me decide. As always, feedback, comments, and questions are greatly appreciated.
