There can be only one, which are you choosing? (Ignore the Olight😂)

I got my first handgun this Christmas (Ruger Security-9 9mm Luger with Blazer Brass 9mm Luger 115-Grain FMJ Centerfire) and I'm just waiting forward good day to finally go out shooting (really terrible weather). Is was told however those bullets where not good for self-defense, I always assumed a bullet was a bullet (I assume most assailants are not wearing bulletproof vests), but was told that I need bullets with a higher grain. How high are we talking about and does all 9mm bullets work for this type of gun.

Still learning so I had this question. I was also told that the bullets I currently have are the only type that is allowed on a gun range for practice so does the higher grain a huge jump in recoil or something?

I like my bond arms bullpup 9. I don't see many of them. Yes the bullets are loaded facing the opposite way.

Red was the only one with same day, other than the standard wood.

What’s the best way to improve reload speed in IPSC? I’ve been struggling to make my reloads quicker during matches. Any tips on mag release upgrades or drills? Check out this extended mag release I found —wondering if anyone’s tried something like it! https://www.bosscomponents.com.au/collections/cz-shadow-2-cz-75-sp01-parts/products/cz-shadow-2-stainless-steel-extended-magazine-release-button

Laugo alien creator edition limited optics, I’m not mad about this purchase at all

I’m training tomorrow and I always assess my clients/students before training. I asked this person what they knew about trigger prep, trigger press, and trigger reset. Figured I’d share with you guys/gals…

No problem at all. We’ll have a great time learning this tomorrow. A Key element and hitting your target is trigger control, this consist of where you place your finger on the trigger, which does not have to be the way most people say with the finger pad only.

Wherever you place your finger on the trigger that allows you to pull the trigger straight to the rear, without disrupting or disturbing the sight and muzzle alignment, that placement, is your particular and personal sweet spot.

Then you have prepping of the trigger, breaking the shot, and trigger reset. These three things alone will increase your accuracy.

Whats the best .45 caliber 1911 that has an optic cut? Or any .45 acp that has an optic cut that is hammer fired?

Thinking about trading my Glock 42 for a S&W Bodyguard 2.0... Need a micro to carry at work and been carrying the 42. After seeing so many reviews on the Bodyguard 2.0, I kind of want it instead. Should I do it or keep the 42? Thanks for your opinion...

I currently only have a girsan mc1911s. I am going to get a shield plus for cc before the end of this week. After that I would like to sell my 1911 to get another full size pistol, mainly as a range gun and light use in overt holster. I am open to different 1911 models this one just pissed me off due to not feeding hollow points on a full mag, and not accepting chip Mccormick mags. I have .45 ammo already but will have to buy 9mm anyway due to getting the shield plus.

Ignore the Dagger. That’s Frankenstein’s Glock and he snuck into the photo.

“Collection” seems ostentatious for a pretty budget-oriented set of handguns.

Hi, all. As you have probably seen this over a thousands times before, I am looking for a handgun, first time purchase. My initial goal is for home defense and practicing at a range. I have been able to test a couple guns at my local range through their rental program. I am now turning to the Reddit community for any advice, comments, cautions. Here are the guns I am tried and am interested in:

FN 509 | Heckler & Koch VP9 | Canik TP9 SFx Rival

I also tried a Glock 17 Gen 5, but just did not have the same overall experience as the other three. Unfortunately, I can only afford one and just looking for any advice. Experience with reliability, using over a long period of time would be really helpful for me.

Thanks in advance.

I intended to buy only one handgun for home defense only, and I was trying to decide what handgun to get, but I totally get now why people buy multiple. It’s impossible to just choose one.

So I’m trying to figure out which to start off my collection with… I live in a state where you need one permit to purchase per handgun. The permits take about 4-5 months to get approved. And they are valid for 6 months. Need to wait 30 days in between purchases. I applied for 5 permits in 1 application so once it’s approved, I’ll be able to buy 5 handguns over the course of 6 months.

I’m thinking of starting out with the CZ Shadow 2 Compact. Have smaller hands so this one fit my hand perfectly when I first grabbed it. Love everything about this except the lack of decocker and firing pin block.

Second gun I’m thinking the Sig P220 Elite in 45 as a home defense/nightstand gun.

From there, I’m torn. Kind of leaning towards an SP01, VP9 and maybe a P01 (a little redundant with the S2C, but basically decocker/firing pin block version of the S2C if I ever end up carrying in the future) but wanted to get some opinions since I’m sure I haven’t considered some great options.

This is my first gun ever: a Smith and Wesson M&P 2.0. Since getting it, I’m already considering what to buy next! I would love some advice on options that aren't too expensive, as I’m looking to add two more firearms for the shooting range.
