Why not a wasr in 308

5.56 and .308 will be most cost effective to shot

@Akashic Wrecker Im settling on a Yugo AK, Yugo M48 & a Browning Hi Power.

I've seen AR's i'd buy in the $500s with features that wouldnt turn me off

why buy a gun that you go broke shooting?

@Sir88 I'd avoid Yugo

@Akashic Wrecker don't really know what the market is like outside CA

no chrome line bore

@Sir88 why browning hi-power?

more accuracy but a lot more maintenance and corrosion

there are so many good 9s

and with Yugos, parts are not as easy to get

I love that design, but wouldn't get it for more than a range gun TBH

@YUGE 9mm & it's holster can double as a stock.

just get stuff that you can throw a bolt in from another one and it will work

@Sir88 depends what you want, I guess

@Sir88 is this your first pistol purchase?

@Akashic Wrecker Yes

oops

then dont buy that gun

I'd go glock/polymer sig for cheap, or sig p226 if you're willing to spend more

go try out, rent, shoot a lot first

yeah, a polymer striker fire is good

oh...yea don't get a hi-power as a first gun

its what id get first pistol

I don't like how glocks fit my hand, but they are good guns

sig p320 is good too

Maybe I can get a .40 Glock.

yeah the new polymer striker sigs are cool

I don't like .40 TBH

and dont rule out FNS

they are my prefered

The first pistol I ever shot was a glock 22 chambered in .40

modern 9mm rounds kinda make .40 obsolete TBH

and CZ has some new polymer striker fire thats a glock killer too

I'd go with 9mm

yep

fuck .40

I prefer .45 but it's expensive to shoot

too much snap to get 2-3 shots right on target
