[QUOTE="Glock 'em down, post: 943824, member: 684"] Keep your eyes peeled right here at OSA. Sometimes you can find some real bargains. As for a pocket sized gun? I think I would avoid a CCW piece that size. I mean...don't get me wrong...at least with a pocket gun, you've accomplished Rule #1. [B]Bring a gun[/B]. But pocket carry is best left for BUGs and more experienced handgun toters. Your primary really should be on your hip. At least until you get more handgun savvy and have gained some more experience in handguns. IMHO, one of the best deals out there on a full sized pistol in either 9mm, .40S&W or .45ACP caliber is the Ruger "P" series. Any one of those can be had [B]used[/B] [I]around [/I]the $350 mark. The Ruger P90 is one of the best .45s I've ever fired. The P89 9mm is "decent" but they don't pattern worth a damn. When I owned one (stainless P89) I could keep 'em all on paper...just kinda scattered. :rolleyes2 [/QUOTE]
