Her intent is to conceal and carry with her, plus take in a car and home defense for when I'm away (basically all around). I'd prefer she got one with more knock down power (like a 40 or 45) but if she isn't comfortable shooting one then there is no point to her having it.

I'm really open to whatever pistol she likes. I just don't think she wants to spend more than $600 which because I'm a gun snob is tough for me. I'd rather spend $1000 and get the best.

Nice.

Good to hear you are open to her getting whatever she is comfortable with. I hear so many men in stores say "you should buy this or this" and not let the women have a chance to speak up. Then they hate it.

Who's to say you have to spend $1000 to get the best? We all know "the best" is very subjective.

I'm confused. My Bersa was cheap and the ammo is expensive, which sucks.

Confused? Well i guess would be too if i was out of the kitcken. Ah you i love ya.

Im more into rifles. I dont want to spend $1500 or more on an ar15 when there are thousands made. An ak would be nice but shit people want gold for them sometimes. You have different nationalites of them and the good ones are high.

I see. My mind for this thread was was more on hand gun, not rifles. I don't know much about those. It all makes sense now.

Well she is much smarter than me so I have to listen. Funny thing is with her ex-boyfriend, he wanted to buy a rifle for hunting and she said she would never allow a gun in a house. She met me and I have 6 guns (2 rifles, 2 shot guns, and 2 pistols) sitting in our apartment now with her probably having her own within a month and applying for her carrying permit now that she is a Georgia resident (and not an Illinois resident).

I have a fiveseven IOM, ammo is insanely expensive. Like watching dollar bills fly downrange

Those look nice

The mateba is a .44mag. The rest of the range tends to stop and take a look when I open up with it
