Looking at picking up a handgun. So far I'm liking the Glock 17 gen 4 and the Smith and Wesson M&P
See: http://us.glock.com/products/model/g17gen4


and http://www.smith-wesson.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product4_750001_750051_781503_-1_757954_757781_757781_ProductDisplayErrorView_Y


Thoughts?

How hard was it to get your concealed weapon license? I like the 17 rounds per clip

That would make it easier. The first one looks comfier. I personally would go for the smaller and lighter one. So I'd say the first one.

Word. I'd love to get a handgun. I guess the license is really expensive. How long did you wait?

I think it would be cool to get a shotgun. No license required  ;)

bout 2 months? and yeah, shot guns are cool tho I've always been more of a rifle and pistol man myself. I'd bet a sawd off shot gun would make for better home defense tho.

Pistols are the most fun to shoot I think. Harder, but more fun.

In my state you can carry a gun without any permit as long as its not hidden. On your hip in plan sight is perfectly okay.

The only gun I own is a beat up 4-10. I have a rather nice bow though, Grizzly by Reflex with a slam and a half cam system, wiskerbiscuit rest, carbon fiber arrows, and illuminated sights (peep sight) set at 30, 50 and 70 yards.

Back to the topic, glock would be my choice in hand guns. I like revolvers myself, but you don't need to take down any animals. Glock will do fine for dead beat thieves. I carry a switchblade, razor knife, and a boot knife on me at all timess. Two of which are well above 6 inches.

I was looking at compound bows for hunting, just for some added fun. I carry around a boot knife and a pocket knife. I wouldn't fight some one with the pocket knife, but the boot knife is pretty scary looking ;D  Also learned how to throw it pretty well.

I personally like .45 caliber handguns the best, like 1911's. Kimbers are really nice, but if you want a high capacity handgun and you don't care if it is 9mm then get a Glock, they are supposed to be very reliable and pretty much foolproof.

1911's are a little old fashioned for my taste, and i like semi's, not revolvers. lol
