save some more money and buy a nice 45acp,


the number 1 people stopper period.

if you just want a plinker buy a 22 as a matter of fact if your new to guns buy a 22. ammo is cheap and aftre your comfortable then buy the 45acp or whatever you like.

always practice safe gun handling if you are new. a gun safety class or a good friend who know about guns to show you would be a very good idea.

good luck and have fun.I never came of the shooting range with a frown on my face.............unless my weopon malfunctions.

I love my Gen 4 Glock 23. I have put a lot of rounds through it (cheap rounds too!) and have had NO problems. The interchangeable back straps fit my hand well because of my long fingers.

As far as rounds go... What makes the difference between FMJ and MC rounds?

Save your money and get a M&P, Glock or a Springfield.

Why a 45 because they don't make a 46.
And shooting twice is just silly

Not fan of the sigma's, go with an M&P if you want to stick with smith &wesson. Or the sringfield XD series is always a good choice. Also something to look at my brother just got a ruger sr40 and it shoots really well. I have had the Ruger sr9 for a while now and I have no complaints about it. You just have to go shop around find something that feel comfortable for you. Like me, im not a fan of glocks at all, I can shoot really well with them, I just don't like guns that feel like plastic.

I looked at one two years ago, but ended up with a glock GAP 45 instead. Not a bad gun for the money though.

Not at all, the common complaint is the trigger pull. I like the heavy trigger.
