My dad says that we can get a handgun. Condition is that I have to order it online and line everything up. Since I'm kinda the gun guru in our family, he lets me have my way with his wallet when its time to fill a slot in the safe. We dont own any handguns now. We used to own a Taurus PT-99AF. My grandpa sold us the gun about a month ago and we already passed it to a different family member. I hated it. When I would pull the trigger it shot about 1/2 the time because it would not pull back all the way. I know I was pulling it hard enough, I cranked on it when it didn't go. What could this problem be ? Could I be pulling the trigger to the side too much? No one else shooting the gun has had this problem.
But, now to the real issue. What should we get for our first(real) handgun? The options that cross my mind are: XD, XDM, GLOCK, 1911, USP, or a Five seveN. Anyone own one or more of these handguns? Any imput would be greatly appreciated. Especialy about the 5.7 x 28mm round. If we got a conventional handgun round I would like to stay away from the 9mm. Either .40 S&W, or .45 ACP. Price aint so much of an issue because we see guns as an investment peice. If you buy it then go broke, you can always sell it for around puchase price. (Mabey even a little bit more).
I was interested in a Five seveN. (If we got a Five seveN we would have to get a PS-90 so it wouldn't feel lonely.) We already have a FS-2000 made by FNH and I love it. My dad wants a Kimber 1911.
We own a couple rifles, have a safe place to store it, and are trying to become a member at the local gunclub. They have a nice indoor pistol range(I dont know if they'll let us shoot a 5.7 x 28mm round there.
Just thought I would get peoples opionion before I would take the plunge into holy matrimony.(With the gun I mean) (Wait would this be leagal?)
My last post was a disaster so Ill try not to step on anyone's toes.
