I don't actively carry right now.

But I do have a...

Ruger Security Six .357mag w/ 6" barrel

Dan Wesson .357mag w/ 2", 4", 6", and 8" barrels

Cobra .380acp (shitty gun but works) that stays in the glove box

Not all that great really.

The .460 raging bull and .500sw mag are roughly 2x as powerful.

I'd personally rather have a .44mag desert eagle because ammo is more readily available and the .50AE isn't much more powerful than .44mag anyway.

I used to think that the .50 desert eagle was a dream gun too when I was younger until I started looking at ballistics.

There are much better shooting guns out there for less money.

Glock 29SF. More kinetic energy at 100 yards with the 10mm than the .45 ACP produces at the muzzle.

BTW, John, I've shot with the Sig 229 and I was not impressed at all. Glocks own.

Evil, nice collection. That 1913 is a Colt, right? Does the S&W 325PD kick a bit cause it's so lite? I was just checkin it on online after I posted; not a cheap unit for sure. Also, that Raptor is a real beauty. Features for the money, I don't think a Kimber can be beat. If my next pc. isn't a 870, it'll prolly be another Kimber but a fullsize. The Ultra is designed for compactness, but the fullsize will fit my hand better.

That is great, I bought it because I liked it, shoot well with it.. Imo it actually feels like a gun, rather then a toy.. Its all preference.. I do not like glocks that much.. SIGS OWN

This one isn't exactly mine. But mine looks identical. I don't have pics of mine yet. I need to get one of the barrels reblued.

Dan Wesson .357mag 15HV


Ruger Security Six .357mag


And with scope mounted
