I'm partial to Ruger .45 double-actions. 9mm are pussy guns. get something that actually has some stopping power.

KNYTE said:Ok, here's what I've had my eye on, any info you may on the guns listed, or others not listed that are comparable, would be appreciated.
The Para Warthog (a compact pistol in .45 with a 10+1 capacity. Supposedly Para makes one fine weapon, but I've never shot one.)

The Smith & Wesson Model 99 (in 9mm or .40, capacity varies on round size. The pic is of the compact style, I personally like the full-size better, but this was pic was easy to find).

Glock 23 (in .40, slightly smaller than a full size Glock for my delicate-girly hands and easier CCW.)

Sig Sauer 226/228/229 (any of the three in 9mm, .40, or .45. I've shot all three in all calibers and love Sig ergos, but they're a little more expensive.)

Beretta 9000 (I LOVE Beretta compacts but they're pricey and hard to come by. I've heard good things about the Cougar series as well.)

BigDov said:Out of the models you have listed here, I've owned the Glock 23 (loved it btw), shot a friends Sig 228 and my father in law has one of those Beretta's (stupid cop discount crap ) that I've shot a few times- the Sig has a funny trigger pull to me and the Beretta is just plain sweet. I've heard pretty good things about those Para's too, but have never had the chance to get my hands on one. I don't see where you could really go wrong with any of those.

KNYTE said:I'm having trouble deciding as well, and most of the reviews I've been reading have been positive for every gun on the list. Last night I was swaying towards a Walther P99/990, but over the course of the afternoon I was firmly in the Glock camp. I guess I'll have to go a rent a few of them when I get back home and see how they shoot for me.

synopsis: Guy rigs his front coat closet with fake/unloaded weapons with the hope that someone will break in and try to steal them and he is then authorized to use deadly force. He spends the next 6 pages arguing that this is all in the good name of self/home defense, which I (on the last page) argue that it borders on sadism and a Hollywood feeling of "there is a muderer around every corner, I must be prepared".

I think some day I may buy a Colt Single Action Army, but that's entirely because of Metal Gear Solid.
