Buyng a handgun this weekend, what to get?

1. Go shoot a lot of different pistols in different calibers. A good range will let you try before you buy or apply the rental costs to the firearm you purchase. For carry guns try a glock, springfield xd, S&W M&P, Sig P320, ect. Don't let any mall ninja or online warrior tell you A firearm is better than B firearm. As long as it's quality made gun you're going to do just fine.

2. Buy whatever is the most comfortable and has the best point of aim. Meaning, what ever fits your hand well and is on target with out a lot of adjustment is the right gun for you.

3. Don't waste money on lights, lasers, and sights. Spend that money on ammo and range time. Muscle memory and weapon proficiency saves lives, not gizmos.

agree completely..... I'm old school 1911 because its what I learned on (even before my military days) I've had one for so many years that everything else feels foreign. most of my buddy's (my team is about 80% former military) say 4 guns is all you need... a shot gun.... a hand gun..... a very accurate rifle and a rifle that is more tactical..... then practice ALOT with them..... they should feel second nature...
