Purchased a new pistol today.

[cuznjohn]

i have been wanting to get another pistol for a long time. but here in new york city, they make it very difficult. now i need to get the ok to sell a pistol, and i also need a purchase order b4 i can buy a new one. i wanted to get the S&W judge, but because it fires 3 different rounds, the city told me NO. then 5 years ago i was ready to buy another pistol, and when i was approved to sell one, and buy another, and i don't remember what one i wanted, my mom had her first stroke. when i asked for a extension on the approval, they only give you 30 days, they said NO again, so i let it expire to take care of mom.

they also made it that if you get approved, you need to go down to 1 police plaza to pick it up, and you have 24 hours after you buy the new gun, to bring it back into the city for inspection. so it is just not worth going through all that bull just to get another one

I for some reason cant get comfortable with an IWB holster, wish I could. I really wish I could appendix carry but to much gut for that also. I have been looking for a holster to carry my new Shield at the 1530-1600 position. Which holsters do you use for the XDs?

I use an IWB for both my Colt Detective Special and my XDS .45 from http://aliengearholsters.com . They really fit differently than other IWB's. The whole gun is covered so none of it digs into your side.

They also make outside holsters.

I carry my .40 shield in a Galko King Tuck in the 5 o'clock position. I've tried IWB appendix, and Im ok as long as I don't sit. :shocked:.

I will get a picture soon. Springfield has a great special going on right now. $180.00 of free gear. I will be getting 2, standard mags and 2 extended mags. Also I will get a holster and a magazine holder that holds 2 mags. Not sure on a speed loader. I paid $445.00 out the door for it. Bruce

If you were from Canada you would not have to make all those decisions. It would be NO, NOT, NUN, and look at all the money you would save to spend on your Spyder LOL.<br>Roger

I carry an AMT 45 DAO Backup in a Krydex strong side holster. Inside the waste band is too uncomfortable for me. The AMT is or was the smallest 45 auto made.

After looking at the specs: I'd say that it's a winner! :clap: :firstplace:
(When concealability is the primary focus: I carry my Seecamp LWS .32)

I had an XD .40 subcompact, loved that gun. But I have a bad hand, and had a serious problem working the slide, so now a friend of mine has a nice XD.
I also had a Taurus PLY-22, which broke every second magazine. Someone else's problem now.
I recently picked up a .40 Beretta PX-4 Storm compact, and a Ruger SR 22, surprisingly, they are close enough in size that they can share a Sneaky Pete set up for the 22. Heading to the range tomorrow to see how I do with them.
Oh, yeah, I also got a Magnum Colt 22, but it's staying home, it shoots rubber bands for when my grandson gets on my nerves.:doorag:

Just bought 2 new handguns, I sold a Sig P238 to get a Glock G43 cause I was afraid in a panic I'd forget to find the safety. The Glock is a single stack 9mm, I carry it in a waist band holster, which is the most comfortable way to carry for me. The other was a 625 S&W 45 acp revolver, because I want to get back into bowling pin shooting. Gun sales have really dropped off with the new administration, so I'm doing my part to help out.

:clap: Nice... :2thumbs:

Bob, I also have a 32 LW Seecamp. Really a tiny little bugger, but is shoots and carries real well.

:agree: :gaah::cus:
They're actively discouraging people from firearms ownership, with these tactics...

 

[SNOOPY]

Fires from the bottom of the cylinder instead of from the top. Virtually no muzzle flip. 357 Mag.

Cool


Nice when someone thinks outside the box and comes up with something cool.

Has anyone looked into the Rock Island TCM22? They have a 22/9mm pistol, interchangeable 22 and 9 barrels and recoil springs. From what I've seen, the 22 has a 2000 foot/second muzzle velocity with a 5 inch barrel.

I bought the Commander size one a few years ago. It's really fun to shoot, but being all steel and holding 17 rounds its pretty heavy to carry I didnt opt for the 9mm conversion.

TCM .22

Impossible to carry concealed. Big and heavy!
I like my FN 5.7. Light, high capacity, shoots great. SOB, you never know I'm carrying. Fires a rifle Bullet.
Another favorite is my Bond Arms Texas Defender. Pocket shotgun. Nothing to conceal - right in the pocket!
