Not sure where to start but i wanted a new or used pistol that I can use for competiton style shooting.I dont mind buying one and then customizing, i just need to know a good platform to start with.Thanks

Do you want semi or revolver. 1911 or stryker fire?

 

[fugan601]

No revolver but the rest im still undecided.I would like to spend between 300-500 on the pistol w/o mods or 700-1000 w/mods

 

[MattC8444]

Have you shot anything?

 

[Beladran]

Don't knock a wheel gun till you have shot one check out a Cz or a xdm

@ MattC8444
I have a glock 33 as my "everyday" gun, was thinking maybe something in 9mm or .45 and not a glock

Sounds good i should be able to make it

 

[JMS39339]

It really depends on what sort of matches you end up shooting in. As far as a .45 goes, SIG makes a version of the P220 called the P220 Sport but you would want to buy it with the mods already made. I know where one is but it's not for sale :lol: and gunbroker/etc will have one occasionally. And there are some great wheel guns in .45 as well. I love the S&W Model 625. Good luck with the search!

Once you see Cliff shoot, you'll be wanting a CZ75 shadow. I know, it happened to me.

 

[Will_M]

Don't go out and buy anything until you figure out what discipline you want to shoot.

Hope to see you tomorrow!

 

[fugan601]

Sorry couldnt make it, my wife got called in this am so Im watching are 9 month old.Ill have more time to schedule for the next one.

 

[ree_countrygirl]

xdm is springfield and i want one in a .45 but i want the 3.8 instead of a 4.5 and its not out yet ullhair:

 

[Rbelote]

GO to a match. See what disipline you want to shoot.. then talk to an expert in that discipline. I have shot many displines, but the first one was NRA action pistol. I figured I would gear up before I started. THat was a big mistake. I ended up having to sell a high dollar gun for cheap just to get what I needed,].

 

[GunOneDown]

+10000 go watch and talk to shooters then make a decision based on your findings. Buy something u want and will use though and not just because somebody else says it's good. GoodLuck and break out the wallet, cause the addiction will start soon.
