New guy here, finally registered after reading lots of good stuff on here.
I'm looking to buy a concealed carry gun. I'm new to carrying and would prefer to carry DA, safety on. Also, I'd like a good SA trigger for plinking and tight groups at the range.
The only guns I can find that meet these requirements and are sized about right are the HK USP Compact and the Stoeger Cougar. Both guns get good reviews on here and both fit my hand well. I'm leaning pretty heavily toward the Cougar only because it's literally half the price.
If I get the Cougar, will I forever be wishing I had spent the money on the HK? The Cougar has a heavier metal frame which makes range time more fun, but will a polymer frame be appreciated much more after 8-10 hours of carrying? Are there other "compact" guns that can be carried DA, safety on?
Thanks for any comments.
