I had a hankering for one of those compact-compact plastic 9mmers for occasional carry. Started out looking for a Shield, moved on to a Shield Plus, then considered a Shield EZ, then saw stuff on Beretta APX, briefly considered a Sig 365 and Springfield, then sort of discovered great reviews on the Taurus G2C,
I was just about to hit the BID button on gunbroken for a $229 G2C when the thought occurred to me I ought to check the size versus my other carry guns.
So I did.
Bingo. I just saved $300. It's essentially the same size as my S&W CS9 and close to my CS45. Which are perfectly acceptable (better than acceptable, actually) carry guns. (Yeah, I know, all those 'extra' rounds in the polymer pieces. But as I read somewhere, "If you need more than 7 rounds in a situation, you shoulda brought more friends.)
I'd still like to get one of those little guns, just 'cause they are so neat. But I can't really justify the cost. And if I'm going to spend $300 of my "gun money" on something, it should be on a trigger job on my Sig 220. So later today I'm gonna look up those Sig special offers and get night sights and an action job. My new motto is "Upgrade!"
