Told the wife I wanted a pocket gun for Xmas so I am getting an M&P .380 to go with my Shield and full size M&P's

Nice Mike!

I stopped in my local purveyor of fine firearms yesterday and came home with this model 37. It's a good bookend for my faithful 36 shown in the background, and it's an Airweight so it's about a third lighter. Both these came off the assembly line back in '89.

Nice pick up Bill

My boy just sold his M&P 380 (secondary gun)

Made it to the gun store finally for my early Xmas gift

Hey guys, looking to buy my first handgun. Looking at mostly home defense and gun range for use. Looking at Glock and M&Ps. Have shot both, and am leaning towards Glock.

Also is there any good way to get discounted prices. I have noticed Glock is almost never on sale.

Thanks for your opinions.

Remo · 12-01-2015, 06:04 PM

Check gun broker and cheaper than dirt, they will ship to your FFL. What caliber? That Glock 43 is a sweet little gun

Chainsaw13 · 12-01-2015, 06:20 PM

I have both a Glock 22 and a M&P 40c. Prefer the M&P. groupings are much better with that one.

Slickguns is another good site to find deals.

Glock and S&W have "First responder" discount programs available to police, fire, EMS, military, etc. Check for specifics. Also, Glock sponsors a regular series of matches run by their Glock Shooting Sports Foundation. Get a membership it makes you eligible for roughly the same discounts given through the First Responder program.

Taurus curve was given me by my brother in Oct for beating cancer. Love it looks like I am carrying a wallet.

Makes my Shield look big

shilala · 12-02-2015, 07:46 AM

I'm due for a new slug flinger. I'd like a couple old 9mm's so I can duel wield, just like in Halo.

Nice Mike. I need a secondary for lightweight carry like that. I'm not sold on the .380 round though. I had considered the LC9 but lately I've heard complaints about quality.

Ya, I am lazy about carrying my 9mm in the summer when I am just wearing shorts and a t-shirt, i'll just throw this in my pocket as a last resort. They always say that any gun with you is better than your .45 at home

Stevez · 12-02-2015, 11:28 AM

I always check out Buds for good deals and usually find their prices very competitive. I researched pocket guns quite a bit a few years ago and ended up going with the Kahr CM9 and love it. Bought a good pocket holster that was made for it and works great. The LC9's trigger to me was way too long and mushy. I also have the M&P9c and love that line, but that's not a pocket gun.

When I got my Glock 19 I joined the Glock Sport Shooting Foundation and was able to order one at the law enforcement price and it was the cheapest I could find. This was 7 years ago though I don't know if they still do it.
