    Fun 40S&W Pistol

    Today was range day. I decided what was most “fun” for me was a pistol that I shot instinctively well at speed. Steel plates at 30+ yards was the test (8” and two 10”). I took out my 9mm pistols that...

    To add onto that, I believe UPS and FedEx instituted that overnight shipping policy because they were having a problem with sticky fingered employees. Their “solution” was to keep the guns in their...

    I took the more fun than practical approach on this one, hence the thread title.
    But practically speaking, I was leaning towards the PX4 and M&P 2.0. I carry and enjoy shooting both in 9mm.

    To me, HK’s are one of those guns you shoot because you know they will work. But except for my P7 (another regretful sale) I would never call any of them “fun”.

    I haven’t. I still own a GEN5 G34 and 43X, but I ditched the rest of my Glocks for M&Ps.
    It’s good to know Glock improved the product and the experience. The Gen 3/4 40 guns were unpleasant.

    I just wish those classic metal Sigs weren’t so righty oriented. I used to own a west german P210, but sold it.

    Fun 40S&W Pistol

    During the last two big ammo shortages, many of us noticed that 9mm and 45ACP were nowhere to be found, but 40 S&W was usually on the shelf. I am pretty well stocked with reloading supplies for 9mm,...

    I have never seen tighter fitting sights than on a PX4. I gave up on doing it myself and gave it to my gunsmith. He charged me an extra $20 because he told me it was such a pain in the ass for him. ...

    I was thinking it might be a good gun for the quick-access safe, for a spouse that shoots once or twice a year. No chance of limp-wristing it like a Glock. And not likely to fire additional rounds...

    Thanks for the recommendation. You are right. They seem to be good construction and it is a very nice tight fit.
