I have a few myself. But you also should think, what would a practical hand gun be? What am I using it for?

these are mine

 

You can barely smoke at certain places now!

anyways, check out calguns.net if you wanna do more research mike.

 

I agree take a corse in gun safty

 

Nor are there in a lot of Walthers....hell, Revolvers don't have any either....the best safety is the one between your ears.

 

LOL I talked to my boss about it, he's EX-army and served in Vietnam, he recommended a shotgun.

 

if you are buying a hand gun, you have to take safety coUrse. rifles/shotguns 14 day dros, no safety coUrse

 

that is a very very good statement. +1 for you!

 

I agree with everyone.... take course in gun safely first!!! My father sign up me as kid not to learn only how fire a gun properly but how it can be a deadly weapon and not toy at the same time and learn the safely.

Funny how people buy for they safely and end up shooting them self in the foot or friendly-foe.

I don't personally own gun, but my father does and we go clay disc shooting sometime.

 

Can you recommend a good class to take?

 

here are a few of mine....all legal I assure you.

 

?Nice AR. What's the price range on one of those?

 

Depends on how u want it fluted barrel how long what style buttstop ect it can be round 1500 up idk correct me if I'm wrong I custom built half of mine me and my dad have 5 different ar15's lol

 

yea it really depends on the parts you want it....super basic can go from 750 upwards to a couple of grand depending on all the accessories you want...the good thing about guns as a hobby compared to cars is that guns don't depreciate as much

 

Figure out what you are going to get and take one of the NRA basic courses...they offer pistol, rifle and shotgun...

NRAInstructors.org - Portal for NRA certified Instructors, NRA Education and Training

A shotgun may be too much for your significant other. For someone looking for home defense, I strongly believe you can't go wrong with a revolver.

Point and click. Very basic, very simple. Nothing extra to have to remember in a crisis.

 

You can check out the 832 shooting class at Rio Hondo Police Academy in whittier. That is a good class to train you on guns and safety.
The instructors are retired Deputy Sheriffs and current officers.

 

Well you can go through the local Police dept for training class.... Let me talk to my father... what class he took....it been awhile I was train at age 10....

I'm in love!!!!

 

I have small hands and so I have a walther p22
it's great if your wife has small hands

 

I conducted the same type of poll on a forum for one of the Fit's competitors, the Suzuki SX4, after noticing a gun ownership trend. It was all very amusing to me. That forum is 8 times smaller than this one.

Let's hope there is never some Running Man style, subcompact car owner battle, reality tv show in the future. Do you own a gun? - SX4 Forums

 

I have a few guns but the best one I have for home defense is a .357 smith and weson. You want something reliable like a revolver or glock for that type of situation. MOst auto hand guns will jam at times and when you're defending yourself that is the last thing you want.

 

I'm going to the gun show at Raahauge's the weekend of June 4,5 and 6. Hoping to start piecing my AR-15 together then
