Ok guys I'm gonna try out these babies when I'm back in a month but I wanna know what you think of these. I want it for concealment and for recreational shooting and home protection.

I would like to try the G27 .40 and the G36 .45 AUTO, the 36 appeals to me as its slimline. I have really small hands.

Glocks are known to be virtually indestructable and known to perform great hence my interest in them.

I also like the SA XD and XDM. The grip safety puts me off though.

Michael says a glock. lol

I don't wanna try anything else though.


Thanks a lot.

No love here at all for Smith & Wesson? M&P40 or 45 compact, 3 diff grips for different size hands. and...it's...MADE in the USA! Oh yeah, you're from Scotland, never mind that part. Did I mention the Lifetime Warranty?
Guess I should have added a a smiley. True confession, back in the day when I indulged in the evil products of the distillers art :p (note the smiley), I MUCH preferred scotch whiskey over any other, including American. Glenfiddich neat, as I recall.

If you must get a polymer handgun, I would suggest going with either SAXD/M or glock which you have allready done and brand loyalty inclines me to suggest springfield due to them being a US company and customer service blah blah youve heard it all before . I would suggest a smaller caliber in a polymer gun because the weight of the firearm dampens recoil and poly aint heavy, so 9mm or 40 would be ideal although 40 is a bit "snappy" on the recoil meter.

I clearly recall your "confession" of loving 1911s, why not get a commander sized, theyre small, singlestack, "God's caliber" concealable and fun to shoot; suitable for carry, HD and plinking ( ammo price excluded).

if you dont wanna go the 1911 route go and handle a bunch of XDs and glucks and see what you like better then buy it.

A wise man once told me (last night) when faced with a decision between 2 things of equal quality and function; go with the cheapest one.
Most 1911's i've seen are $800+ unless im looking in the wrong place?

Had J&B last night, no talk about whisky today hahahaha! :p

I do love American guns. Very popular "over here"
I know a guy with a compact 1911 for sale for less than 700. He may even be a little negotiable by now.

Cool, I wonder if you could get pics?
Glock.




I like the 27, but I have never tried the 36 yet. Rob seems to think it's the cats meow, so I might give one a try soon. I could use another.
Try both though.
I do not know. They have plastic frames and I will not buy a pistol with a plastic frame, nor will I bother shooting one either.

You know what I hate about my womanism I cannot for the life of me decide on what one I like, I can guarantee this when I have tried them out too :lol3:

I'm still looking to get a mini M&G organized for June when I'm back too :)
Why don't u just get one of each since u have "womanism" and when ur mind changes, change ur shooting preference to suit. Then everything will be great.
