I had been reading allot about the new Ruger SR9 striker fired pistol. I got so anxious I just had to go buy one. I'll let you know what I think about it after I pump a couple hundred rounds through it.

i havnt heard of that pistol, looks good though.
as for handguns, i mostly shoot a HK USP tactical 45.

That is a sexy Piece :-)
Do you have a silencer for it?
That's my #1 choice for a carry pistol... in .40 S&W though.Quote:

LOL. i absolutly love the AR, so i dont regret it at all. i still cant wait to get a suppressor for the 45 though. ive shot a couple HEMS2s on it, its amazing. if you keep the suppressor wet, its no louder than a CO2 bb gun.

i went to rugers site and saw a video about the SR9, looks like it ought to be a pretty good shooter

if youve never shot a USP, you ought to get to a range or somthing and rent one. the trigger takes some getting used to.Quote:

i love my taurus mill pro pt140 in .40 small enough to conceal but a blast to shoot
My brother and I had to go to a friends house near Mockingbird today to pick up a bookcase, so I convinced him to stop by DFW Gun Range. We both rented guns and did a little shooting.
We decided to see how we would score on the CHL test... he shot a 250 (Kimber Custom 1911) and I shot a 249 (HK USP and Springfield XD, both in .40 S&W.. I let a USP shot get away from me :(). We signed up for next Sunday's class ;). Not too bad for having fired 0 rounds in close to 2 years...
Now I just have to figure out what I want to buy for my regular carry weapon.
1911's are awesome guns but I'm not the type to carry one... just not really my style.Quote:

you can see the steel target in the backgroud of this pic, the white speck on the hill on the top right corner. thats 953 yds.
id already have a miata if id stop spending all my money on guns. :(
Well, I just put my first 100 Rounds through the gun without any issues.
At 15 Yards I without adjusting the sights I could own any part of the target I wanted.
At 30 Yards there was a bit of a drop in the round; and just a little off to the side maybe an inch.
As far as shooting I could pump rounds through as fast as I wanted and still hit my spots. Not a whole lot of recoil that made it pretty easy to keep the grouping close.
All in all I'm satisfied with the gun.
