Calling all Gun Owners.

[JRock]

Money is no object just want to know which you would pick and why...

I am looking to either pickup a Glock or a DE .50

Which would you pick and why? Also if Glock which model?

Looking for a weekend shooter and home defence.

 

[bradruth]

I'd pick the Glock because Desert Eagles are practically useless. I'd recommend the model 22 .40, because the .40 cal is the ideal middle-of-the-road caliber (high capacity + knockdown power).

Just the kind of reply I am looking for. Let's home you start a trend. Thanks!

2nd badruth's comments. The DE's are pretty much hollywood guns. They are fun but not practical.

Desert Eagle is junk, it's a showpiece, not a shooter. I think you can do MUCH better than a Glock, especially if money is no object. Go for whatever model fits your hand best in either .40S&W or .45, 9mm is a womens gun.

"Your gun says replica..."
"...and mine says Desert Eagle .50".

Seriously, that's like the 100th person to misread my name. Is it really that hard to read?

No, unless everybody else's 'r' keys were broken...which would have to be some sort of worldwide conspiracy somehow targeting me...

I am happy with my Glock 21c (.45 compensated). I agree with GagHalfrunt about seeing what fits in your hand. Go to a local range and try a few if you are not sure.

 

[ultimatebob]

That new Beretta PX4 pistol looks interesting. You might want to try one of those, too.

 

[everman]

Get something that you can practice with, not a DE.

 

[gooseman]

The Glock 22 is a good choice as Bradruth stated. I have one and love it.

 

[jlee]

A friend of mine has a Glock 22 - I've put more than a few rounds through it..no complaints.

To be fair I didn't pay one cent for mine, but I'd still recommend it...even to someone who had to buy one.

I don't have my 9mm anymore, but I wouldn't encourage you to step in front of the 9mm Hydrashock I carried while on duty.

I wouldn't encourage you to step in front of a .22, a high-powered pellet gun or even a well thrown dart. That doesn't change the fact that the 9mm is badly underpowered compared to a .45 or .40 S&W

 

[imported_Tick]

Is money really no object? If so, why not, say, a S&W 945?
