800 to 900 used on today market but today market is high cuz of election

ah, yea I noticed

probably going to get higher

Yup I saw one few days ago going for 850 I would say thats good price till republican gets back in office if trump loses i court

ik u werent asking me, but I remember the sig226 only feeling slightly smaller than a beretta. as small as the dif. is, Berettas certainly do feel chunky, which I personally love.

replied to the wrong thing,

but ye

oh its slimmer?

Only slightly, its a little deeper than the Sig though and that will make it feel a little chunky.

Sorry its cold here

ahh gotcha bar. Thanks

idk why I thought the beretta was bigger. maybe just the one I got to check out was?

Go to a store or a range that has both and lay them out, shake hands with 'em

Thats how I got my gf her glock 42 I got sick of paying ones she didn't like took her to range and had her shoot 5 different ones and she picked the glock42

smart.

My wife carried the 42 until I bought her a 43X

now I have a 42 in a box

She carried a Kel-Tec PMR-30 bbefore that

I took her out to shoot the 43x she just dont like it i think 9mm to much recoil for her 5 3 110 lbs

If she doesn't like to shoot it she will not carry it so at lease she carries the 42

So on the topic of that m9. I have a p2022 with a after market rubber grip.

My wife is 5-2 and 112 lbs. She says the 42 is snappier than the 43X, go figure. Then again her 43X has a light/laser under the barrel and that may make the difference. Then again-again, she likes to shoot my .45cal Ruger SR1911, too, so there's that, she grew up shooting competition clays with a Benelli 12ga.

I could see that, smaller gun? Even if 380 vs 9.

Yep 23 oz for the 43X and 16 oz for the 42, that's nearly a 50% weight difference, plus the light/laser is another 3 or 4 on the muzzle helping to keep it down. I don't like the 42 cuz' its too danged small for my mitt, by the time I get my left hand on it I'm afraid my knuckle is forward the barrel.

Yeah, CZ Rami is the smallest I’d go and be comfortable. Regardless I only use da/sa so I am not sure there is a gun smaller than that anyways

I appendix carry and I know it’s just paranoia but I do not trust striker fire. The trigger is hot regardless of striker or da/sa. I just do not like having the striker engaged. I prefer the hammer at rest

ahh ... nope, no appendix carry rule #2
Cross-draw to left at a 25 degree angle. The Glock 26 is slightly smaller than the CZ in length and height, but a little thicker.

why do you not like appendix carry?

not old enough to carry, but ye I feel ya. I personally don't like the idea of appendix carry unless I know the chamber is empty xD

oh well in that case, hammer fired gun appendix carry 🙂

@sixfivebyfiftyfive are you over 18?

yes, but I can't buy handguns or pistol ammo in my state. that might change next year, because I am moving out of VA to either go to college or find a semi-affordable place to live.

I honestly don't know that I will get accepted anywhere, because I have only applied to one school thus far, so I am thinking I will probably just start working full-time

so maybe I can get my own place soon

Appendix carry is completely fine with a da/sa gun. One in the chamber and hammer in half cock

Tbh it is completely fine with striker if you are safe. Again I just don’t trust it because of paranoia but plenty of those big name gun youtubers appendix with striker

Garand thumb for example or warrior poet, both appendix with striker

I appendix carry an XDS with one in the chamber everyday as do most of my friends. You need to get comfortable carrying but if you get in a situation where you need to defend yourself, last thing you want is wasting the time racking the slide.

Firearm safety rule #2, never point a gun at anything you are ready to destroy. My own thigh or worse my own " junk" is not something I want to shoot. Don't care what the action is I do not point a firearm at me. Friend of mine shot himself in the ass drawing a Sig P220 that was "safe".

I carry a Glock with one in the pipe ready to go.

If you holster appendix correctly, it shouldn't ever be pointing at you till it's safely inside a holster where the trigger can not get pulled.
