Any recommendations on a great 9mm semi-automatic? Price isnt an object. Its been over a decade since Ive last purchased a handgun, Im more of a rifle guy but looking for something new at the moment. Something that holds 15 rounds is my only real requirement, everything else is just a preference.

General response would be Glock 19, H&K VP9 or Smith & Wesson M&P, but you have some thinking to do about what the purpose is and what you want to get out of it. You said "money is no object" but something expensive isn't necessarily what you really need.

HK VP9
That's about it in here hehe
With 'money is no object' get about 5,000 rounds of ammo and at least a half dozen magazines too.

If you ND, you're done shooting for the day. People are shaken up after that so it is just safer for everyone to stop.
We've had three ND's, none resulted in injuries.

Morning bros
Guess I'm getting a new roof since this happened Friday night. And all new windows on the south side of my house, too. At least I park my cars in my garage... all the cars in my hood that were outside have no windows left.



Couple houses somewhat near me got hit by lightning.
Here's 2 different ones:

So far Ive been researching the Smith & Wesson m&p and the Sig 226. Ive never been a fan of glock's although I would consider it.
As for the expense line, I do like spending time on the range so it would get use. Ive just been out of the pics with handguns for a long time and manly shoot rifle.

Worst case scenario.....you throw a nice Zev in it.
That Shield is a great carry gun. Some of the guys here carry much larger guns. Personally, I like more concealable single stacks.
Honestly....I think you should buy both. Two different guns that have individual utilities.

You can even look at something mid-size (compact) for carry like a Glock 26 or an M&P compact. Capacity of 10 (or thereabouts), with width the same as a full size but shorter slide and grip. Then you could have a full size for the range and HD.
EDIT: either way . . . find a place where you can rent/shoot many options and pick what you like & shoot best.

Gonna be a rough summer for Colorado insurance companies-and "hail season" isn't over yet. Pepper for the rate hikes.

Thursday: Look up info needed to take to BMV to get new license and tags.
Friday: Go to BMV with all info listed wait 30 min and get told I need a "copy of my birth certificate" (was not listed on BMV provided website)
Saturday: Go back to BMV, wait 60 min, get told my photocopied version will not suffice and that I need original.
Sunday: Parents and I each drive 2 hours to meet halfway to get original birth certificate.
Monday: Spend 90 min again at BMV, finally get license, but still have to go back later this afternoon to pick up plates
Now I get where the argument that it's easier to buy a fully-automatic, death reigning, babykiller rifle than it is to get a license to drive a car comes from.

Life passes most people by while they're making grand plans for it. Throughout my lifetime, I've left pieces of my heart here and there. And now, there's almost not enough to stay alive. But I force a smile, knowing that my ambition far exceeded my talent. There are no more white horses or pretty ladies at my door.
