Hello.
I've been wanting a pistol of my own for a long time now. I don't plan on going into competitions or anything like that. And hopefully all I will use it for is target practice. That said, I want something I can keep handy and will be ready if/when I need it. On occasion my friends and I spend a day at a target range. So I want something I can hit targets with, at range, fairly consistently.
My budget is around $500. What I am looking for is a gun that is accurate, easy to maintain, has adjustable sights, and fires affordable ammo. It doesn't have to be big so a 22cal would work. Although I have fired a 40cal dessert eagle and loved it. Also I don't want a revolver, I want a semi-auto with a clip. In time I would also like to add a laser sight.
I have done some searching and I REALLY like the Sig Trailside PL22. But it seems those are hard to come by.?. I have also read good things about the CZ 85 Combat.
I don't expect to get everything I want, if there was a perfect gun out there everyone would have one. I just want something I will get plenty of enjoyment out of and is simple to maintain.
Any suggestions or opinions will be greatly appreciated!
