I only keep one gun around and that's the Ruger P89. If I had around $800 to spend on another firearm it would DEFINITELY be a Ruger .44 mag Super Redhawk. As Danny Vermin would say, " It shoots through schools".

I had over 60 pistols one time. Sold them all, because I'm a dumbass. I had a Ruger Super Redhawk. A rather large pistol, to be sure, though not as large as the Desert Eagle 44.

If I was to carry, it would be a one of the Springfield Armory .40 s&w or 9mm XD or XDM's. I don't like a manual safety on a personal defense weapon, but that's just my preference.

 I want to be able to pull it and shoot. Stress can cause one to forget about a safety, and every second counts sometimes.

Jesus, that's quite the arsenal. The Redhawk is a beast best left to the men to wrangle, for sure. As far as the Desert Eagles go, I know a guy who has the 9mm 'Baby Eagle' as they're oft called. A very well built piece that has pretty much zero barrel play.

I tend to go the other way with the safety. My Ruger has the safety with decock feature and I really like it that way.

I figured out long ago to standardize my pistol arsenal on the 9mm for the following reasons:

1)  Ammo is cheaper.

Well to put it in perspective I would much rather get hit with

(http://static.howstuffworks.com/gif/hammer-1.jpg)

Than get hit with

(http://www.wickes.co.uk/content/ebiz/wickes/invt/169099/Sledge-Hammer_large.jpg)

Sure the first one is faster but the 2nd one will hurt more.

Either way when I went gun shopping for my first handgun I wanted something that looked awesome, shot great, and just felt at place in my hand. I fired a Beretta 9mm when in the Air Force and it was pretty boring. I went to ranges and fired several other semi-auto's and eventually considered the Glock as my choice but when I fired a Kimber 1911 I knew what I wanted.

I bought my Springfield 1911 mil-spec but did some upgrades myself since I didn't like the factory beavertail and my fat hand got hammer bite every shot I fired. I put on the one that's on it now, changed the sear, trigger, and put on a skeletonized hammer. All adding better looks to the gun IMO. I also bought a Wilson magazine to try it out and know that I want to buy more. I love the fact that there are two safeties however I keep them both on. The position of the thumb safety is so easy to switch while drawing or aiming.

The next handgun I buy is going to be an FNH Five-Seven and I still wouldn't mind a S&W 629 and Glock or similar gun in a .40 caliber. There is no gun that compares to the looks of a 1911 IMO I just wish I had $3,500 to buy a top end one from Wilson or Les Baer. http://www.emersonbrandapparel.com/EmersonBrandApparel_Gunslinger.html#Baer

I plan on buying a Remington 870 to make into a tactical home defense gun and Marlin .22 for plinking this year hopefully before summer.

I wanted a Glock so bad but, when I tried shooting it, I did not like the way it felt. I thought it was to heavy, and uncomfortable for me to shoot for some odd reason.  :smt017

to me, the most important part of shooting is how the gun feels in your hand.  Some guns feel just right and they are easy to shoot consistently while others just don't fit and they are hard to shoot accurately.

It was the wimpy ass FBI agents that couldn't shoot it that killed the 10mm.
The FBI went to 10mm, then found out that the wimps in the office couldn't shoot it. They dumped them and went with the .40....and the 10 died. But it seems to be making a little bit of a come back lately.

wimpy assed FBI couldn't shoot the .45 so they joined the pussy parade and went to Nines...then they found out that 15 rds would not kill someone because they could not shoot straight enuf for a shot to the eye...so then they went 40s instead of hiring people capable of shooting the 45!

Now, they are whining the 40 bites in the smaller pussy versions so they are looking for downloaded shells....
