I ALWAYS have a couple I want, but some are closer to the top of the "must have" list than others. Personally, I have a deep, burning desire for an EAA Witness full-size Poly 10mm or a CZ P-07 Duty. I need a lighter piece for EDC. How about y'all?

Already have a Sig in 9mm for CC, and a paper cutter in .22, so I would want a bigger sidearm for open carry. Glock in .40 maybe? or maybe I will read up and think about it. But definitely something with a lot of stopping power, great accuracy and a large capacity.

.40 is hot and hits pretty hard. I see it in stuff surpassing 1300fps. I'm not a Glock fan, but they work. I would make sure that you get a new barrel if you're going to get a .40. It's a high pressure round, and the unsupported chambers blew up from time to time...

9mm is a very capable round, and it's cheap to practice to proficiency with. I love my 9s!
Thanks!

It's a beautiful round. If you are just getting into shooting, you are going to hear the .45 guys chime in about "knockdown power". DO NOT WORRY ABOUT THAT! The .45 is a nice caliber, but I really do like the "finesse" of 9mm over the brute force of the .45. I found some amazing +P+ ammo that hits 1400fps with JHP that expand to nearly 275% Wowee! haha!

Awesome I have a lady's Taurus 38 and can shoot bull's eye at 15 yrds but since I am on vacant property a lot. I need something doesn't feel so bulky. If that makes sense.

It does. Personally, I would go for a CZ P-07 or a Witness Pro-Carry (but those are just my favorites. Purely personal). I like being able to carry "cocked-and-locked" so if I ever have to clear leather all I have to do is drop the safety. I don't care for the safeties on Glocks. If you can, shoot several different styles before you make a purchase. Or do like me; buy guns with every spare penny until you find the perfect pistol :). "I don't want to buy any more guns, babe... I just haven't' found the perfect one yet!"

My wife has the patience of a saint!

454 cal. hell it will push you back just a little but will blow away anything on the receiving end.

IDK why I thought that was a .44. The Casul is a brutal caliber haha! Enough to make any BG wet himself before he runs.

Thats why it only loads five in the wheel, your hand goes numb if you fire all five. Besides I want something that will drop you with the first round unlike 9's it always takes more to drop ya.
A friend and I were pistol hunting (Black Bear) and thats what he was using when he dropped one just under 300 pounds at about 35 yds. Thats all it took,one shot and it was bear steaks for a month.

Glocks are very adequate tools. Do you have a preference? Full, semi-compact, or compact? 9mm? .40 S&W? .45 ACP? The all mighty and powerful 10mm? They also have .45GAP and .357 Sig. LOTS of choices with a Glock!

Thanks for your response!
