I have a FIST#1 in Kydex that is molded for the G36. It fits my G19. Retention isn't as secure b\c the slide of the G19 is slightly thinner, but it works.
$550 sounds high to me for a used gun and I live in South Florida where gun prices are super inflated!:mad:
However, my NIB stainless, P9 Covert was $569. The NIB stainless, full size P9 was $619.
Compare that used $550 to what they are NIB in your area.
Ditto. I've had mine for little over a week and have 600rds through it already. Had some FTE's during the recommended 200rd break in, but it's running smooth now. Haven't tried +P through it.
I agree. I traded my G36 towards the P9.
Good post!
My first pistol was a Glock 19. Bought it when I first turned 21 in '92. I still have it. Still shoot it. Carry it on occasion. Carried a Glock 36 for a year and recently switched to a Kahr P9 Covert (which has ZERO external, manual safety devices).
As suggested above...
Great stuff!:D
There is nothing more entertaining then reading posts about guns on a 'fast & furious' forum. Although reading about guns on a 'PC gamers' forum is equally as entertaining! :D
On the same token there's nothing more scary than one of those guys actually owning a handgun!:uhoh:
Gotta go with the 642. I bought used 642-1 a few months ago. It was already broken in. The trigger is sweet. The finish is kind of beat, but it shoots fine. Handles +P, light, many different grip options to customize fit, snagfree, etc. So far this summer, the 642 has kept my Glock36 in...
Ruger P85. Solid pistol but too big\bulky. Traded it towards a Glock19.
Glock19. Really enjoyed it, but sold to my cousin. I was in college and needed $$$.
SIGP239. Sweet pistol, fit well, really liked it. Sold it to fund the reacquisition of the Glock19 from my cousin.
Beretta96...
I used to have a 229 .40 and 239 9mm. The 239 was definitely smaller and easier to carry. Carrying the 229 wasn't out of the question, I carried it sometimes. I carried IWB. The 239 was always first choice. Of course, the difference for me was obvious (.40 double stack vs. 9mm single...
I agree. I learned how to shoot pistols on a DA\SA (RugerP85). Even though I enjoy shooting all types of guns, my CCW are DA\SA, no safety. My muscle memory says, "Draw, aim, pull the trigger". Right now, for me to switch to a CCW with a manual safety and to carry it with the safety on would...
I have a 642 (the satin nickel brother of the 442).
I carry IWB or pocket.
The 442 is perfect for pocket (at only 15oz).
Yes it'll fit the bill.
A 442 for <$300 is IMHO a STEAL depending on condition (got my 642 for $300, and it's pretty used but shoots great).
DAO, hammerless is the...
All that and you didn't post which model you bought!
I recently acquired a 642 myself. It's great! I've been an auto guy as long as I can remember, but another wheelie (JFrame in particular) is in my future!
I'm not familiar with that model but here are a few good holster links:

There are tons more. I'm sure people will reply with more links.
Selling the 1911 may be a better option than an even trade b\c you can probably get a G36 and a good carry rig with the $$$. Or just keep the 1911 and save up and buy a new\used G36. Used Glocks are easy to find and relatively priced to sell. New ones are priced to sell as well as long as you...
My last 3 guns I bought used (642, 220 and 225). The 642 and 225 were well worn on the exterior, but both shoot very well! The 220 looked like it was never taken out of the case!
You better bring your checkbook 'cos chances are you'll be walking out with one afterwards!:D
Just shoot, shoot, shoot, clean (repeat as necessary). :D
FWIW - My 225 is date coded JE (meaning that it was produced in 1984). I bought it used and whomever had it last really put it through...
