I am looking at getting both of these firearms eventually, the question which one to buy first after wife lobbying is done.
Here is why I am interested in them: I am getting lazy. Actually, I am more pressed for time as my career heats up and I am losing interest in setting up to collect brass, buy components, set up, and actually find the time to reload .45ACP.
9mm and .38spec. are cheap to buy about anywhere I go. They cost just about 50% of the cost of .45ACP in bulk and still are cheaper than .45 reloads.
Here are the pros of each from my perspective:
GP-100:
Will last forever, handling any round through it.
Stainless.
Ergos work for me.
Grip customizeable.
Ruger stands by their products.
Inexpensive to purchase.
Can have .38 to practice and .357 for serious social work.
Never need to buy a mag.
CZ 85B:
Friendlier to my left handedness.
Ergos still work for me though not as customizeable as the revo.
Full cap mags widely available.
.22 adapter available would pay for itself in just a few sessions while allowing decent work with the trigger feel if not with recoil and POA with SD rounds.
DA/SA or C&L.
9mm even cheaper than .38
Great rep for durability.
Hakan.
So which would you buy first and why?
