Your third? Nice! If I were someone else, I might find that a little odd... I have 4 full size USP's though... I was actually thinking of trading my full size Hk45 for a Compact, seeing if there was someone out there that wanted to make that trade. Not sure yet though...They all are! A few match/Lem hybrids also.
Even a couple that have "special trigger mods"
And as far as that deal. That's why I bought it even though its my 3rd 45c.
They aren't bad...I carry a Glock 30SF everyday, Its smaller than a 1911, more reliable, and holds more ammo (10rds). I typically carry an extra G21 mag with an aftermarket +2extender so that 15 more rounds on top of the 10 in the gun. Check out the G30!
The best thing that you can do is find a Cabella's or a similar store (that has a vast selection), and hold each gun.
I checked out my friend's brother's M&P9 and I'm gueessing that there isn't much difference bewteen the 9 and 45
I might go to Cabela's today after my doctor's appointment
don't tell your Dr. you are going, he will put it in your medical record.
There are a lot of different options out there for a nice 45 acp. I helped a friend recently with pick out a 45 and all i can say is go with what you like the look and feel of and not what others say. Getting something and then later regretting what you purchased is a horrible feeling.
