Non-Political Gun Talk (On topic)

I agree. I’ve owned Henry’s, a big boy in .357 and a pump .22 rifle. No complaints.

I like the tactical 357 Big Boy.

I’ve always thought a lever action was under rated. Henry makes outstanding levers.

CZ P-10 series, get some.

CZ makes some of the worlds best firearms. I own a couple myself.

I used to change carry guns a lot. Then I only changed for the seasons, heavy gun when youre wearing more clothes, smaller gun in Summer for under a tshirt.
Now I generally carry my 9mm Sheild year round.
Except now I'm ready to change it up. My full size Beretta or a .357.
I have a .380 Bodyguard, but I rarely carry it now, only if I need something that hides well in just a pocket holster.

I have one of those as mostly a novelty gun but wouldn't trust anything smaller than a .380 to carry

It’s better than nothing. I only use FMJ rounds, 8 + 1, and it’s very reliable. I don’t know if you checked what they cost lately. I carry one exactly like that, and I have one I bought at a gun show, in the box, as new, that has no safety. It’s one made in the 50’s, pre 64 gun laws. Mint.

I saw a guy get shot with one of those .25 Beretta's. It just pissed him off. Actually never made it past his outer clothing. The range was about 10-15 feet.

Head shots. I sometimes will carry a beretta 70 in .22lr. Excellent little pistol. Mossad liked it too.

The best .25 made. Which isn't saying very much. I think I paid about $100 for mine used a long time ago.

That’s what they went for when I bought my first. Now they’re over 300 to 400. No longer made and now people want them.

I need big rounds cause my aim sucks. This will put ‘em down even if I graze em.

So you have something to throw at the bad guy???

Would trust a 22lr with my life before a 25acp.

Not many choices in compact .45's but as long as you are OK with fewer rounds in the magazine a good choice in my opinion. I used to have a Firestar in .45 that was a very nice size but kind of heavy with its all steel construction.

That is the downside of course, depending on where I am I do carry an extra mag just in case. Not a big deal to have one in my pocket.

My .45 is a little more concealable than my Beretta. A little shorter, and a little thinner.

Center fire is more reliable than rim fire. It’s hot AF here. Nice little pocket gun for summer. I’m not goin on a tactical op.

Because your a puss?

.22 is probably slightly better than a .25 but it's pretty much a toss up. Mostly because of more ammo choices for the .22 while a .25 you only have about one FMJ load.

No, they have hollow points and other special rnds. In .25. FMJ is better for penetrating. The velocity is too low for hollow points to penetrate and expand.
