Your next handgun? - Page 3 - The Firearms Forum

GregD · 03-27-2010, 09:12 AM

I purchased a Kahr CW9 a couple of months ago and my next purchase would be a Ruger nine .

ARB · 03-27-2010, 12:53 PM

Ruger LCR. Need a carry revolver for summer. (donations accepted

) Was carrying a Px4 Storm because of the ambidexterous safety, but it's too cumbersome for summer carry.

rglbegl · 03-27-2010, 12:59 PM

Finally getting in to revolvers;

Just bought a Ruger LCR.
My next will be a Ruger SP101, but I cant decide between .357mag or the new .327mag

bob1010 · 03-27-2010, 03:39 PM

I think I want one of the Taurus Raging Judge Magnums. I could have some fun at the range with that

I am also looking for a classic Smith&Wesson in 41 mag too.
As far as what I actually get next will just depend on what catches my eye at the shop.
Can never have too many toys to play with.

EL TORO · 03-28-2010, 04:55 PM

My next purchase is going to be the blue Taurus PT1911 in 9mm...

""Can never have too many toys to play with.""

Ain't that the truth!?!?!

Gun Geezer · 03-28-2010, 06:44 PM

I've already been looking. I've decided on a S&W,Performance Center, .357 mag., 8 rnd., 2" barrel but I haven't yet found one. The dealers all say they are out of stock and S&W doesn't show them on their web site. I really love the way they look but if I can't find one soon I'll have to go with a 2-1/2" Night Guard.

scudrunner · 03-29-2010, 08:26 PM

I just purchased a Ruger SR9 full size with an OD Green frame.
Very sweet, 17 + 1, ran 200 RDS through it last week and not on hiccup whatsoever! Full mags, half mags, rapid fire, slow fire.....etc

50 Rds of Wolf
50 Rds of 3D
100 Rds of Seiler & Bellot

A very nice shooter!

Gun Geezer · 03-29-2010, 10:02 PM

I went to the toy store today to order the S&W but they had just gotten in a new Springfield EMP 1911. The shop owner, who knows my weakness, asked me if I wanted to be the first kid on the block to have one. I just couldn't pass up an offer like that as I always wanted to have a mini 1911. And now I do. Eat your hearts out kids.

rglbegl · 03-29-2010, 11:16 PM

Okay - The LCR is here
Now according to my state, I have to wait 42 days before I can get another one.

Its already on order, but I just have to wait for my Ruger SP101

Eddie N · 03-30-2010, 12:07 AM

Trying to decide between five:
Springfield 1911
Springfield XD compact
A good single action revolver(cowboy pistol)
Taurus Judge
Black powder revolver

Double Deuce · 03-30-2010, 10:27 AM

I am going to get the Walther PK380 /22 package then sell my XD compact and get a full size XD .45 bi tone with night sights.

gdmoody · 03-30-2010, 11:56 AM

I don't have any plans for a new handgun any time soon. Having said that - it can change in a heartbeat if I see something that catches my eye!

jacksonco · 03-30-2010, 02:00 PM

I have been sniffin around the Sig P239 in 357sig. Also the Taurus snubbies in 327fed. It will be interesting to see which I end up with or none at all.

tim.sr · 03-30-2010, 03:44 PM

8" ak47

hogger129 · 03-30-2010, 06:49 PM

got my springer today

roaddog28 · 03-31-2010, 04:20 PM

Just picked up the gun yesterday. A S&W 5903.

Regards,
roaddog28

Cleatis123 · 04-06-2010, 07:35 PM

Colt Python, 4" barrel, blued.

But, since they cost more than twice what a brand new Ruger GP100 goes for, I'll be going with the Ruger.

mesinge2 · 04-06-2010, 07:59 PM

I am trying to round out my revolvers (all S&W or Ruger)

In 38 Special I have 6 inch, 5 inch, 4 inch, 3 inch, and a 1.875 inch.

In .357 I have a 8 inch, 6 inch, 4 inch, 2.5 inch and a 1.875 inch.

In .44 Mag I have 8 3/8 inch, 7.5 inch, 6 inch, and a 4 inch.

So, my next gun will be a Ruger Alaskan in 44 Magnum with a 2.5 inch barrel.

I got the Springer Loaded 1911-A1. Great gun.

uzim16 · 04-06-2010, 08:51 PM

Ministry of Defence Police in UK is using MP7SF (Single Fire), could it be on civ market?

Cavik · 04-06-2010, 09:19 PM

The next handgun I plan on buying is the Ruger GP100, .357 Magnum revolver. And I'm really looking forward to it.

gdmoody · 04-07-2010, 12:44 AM

Two days after I made that statement above, I bought a Chiappa 1911-22. The range report is over in the 1911 forum.

petesusn · 04-07-2010, 02:57 AM

Gonna start looking around for a 44 Mag Virginia Dragoon in stainless steel and 7 1/2 inch barrel. Had one a couple of years ago and got rid of it. Been sorry ever since. Shouldn't be more than $250.00 - $300.00 I think.

AcidFlashGordon · 04-07-2010, 08:57 AM

I'm still deciding on what I want to add to my list of handguns. So far it's rather barren:

Sig Sauer P226 .40 cal
Walther PPS .40 cal
Beretta PX4 Storm 9mm

I've been lusting over getting a Browning HiPower 9mm but so far, I haven't gotten my old arse out to the local gun stores to look at them. The only one I did see a couple of months ago had that idiot-looking camo coating. But the day I saw that one is the day I bought my Beretta.
