Im loking to get a .25 auto pistol to keep around.
Im well aware of the cartridges ballistics, and im not looking to debate that. I own over a dozen handguns in cartridges from 44 mag down to 22lr, and have carried many different pieces in the decade that i have had my carry permit, so i dont need "schooled" on what guns are appropriate to carry, or whos rectum will be violated should i ever fire a 25 in anger.
I want a 25 just for the sake of being able to utilize the ammunition. My personal experiences lead me to believe that it will be readily availible in the event of ammo shortages (thanks in no small part to the negative attention it gets on intrrnet forums). Guess what was all over the department store shelves 4 years ago? 25acp and 22mag - conveniently hiding in everbodys blind spot.
Im considering 3 different guns. The Beretta 21, Taurus pt25, and Pheonix hp25. Im a beretta fan, but in this instance im leaning toward the Pheonix because spare parts are super easy to get, and it is the cheapest outright cost.
What would you choose just to keep around, and why?
