tufftom4 Posted July 29, 2020 Share #1 Posted July 29, 2020 I have 2 new carry weapons, the top is a Walther PPS single stack 9 and the bottom is the new Springfield Hellcat double stack 9. I have not been able to go to the range yet to compare them but they feel fantastic in the hand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowpuc Posted July 30, 2020 Share #2 Posted July 30, 2020 ,, BEAUTIFUL TUFFY!!!! JUST FLAT OUT 100%,, MY ME GORGEOUS!! CONGRATS!! Sooo,, now that you got my attention (I am pretty sure you knew the congratulations in landing a couple gorgeous shooters wasnt gonna end there ,,, the ol curiosity begins and all that ),,,, tell me a little more on the Walther. Is it considerably narrower on the slide then the double stack Hellcat?? I think for a pocket gun it would be wayyy cool if someone would make a slender as possible 9 mill single stack with all the edges radiused as much as possible to prevent snagging.. Something palm sized.. Am I even close to describing the Walther?? Just like you though brother,, I am a staunch double stacker lover too,, 17 rounds is a good round count IMHO to make shooting cans and chasing away bad guys interesting ... Ok,, I'll shut up,, gotta say though,, NICE CHOSEN THE SHOOTERS TUFFY!! Puc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvmy40 Posted July 30, 2020 Share #3 Posted July 30, 2020 My EDC is the first gen PPS and I have been eyeballing the HellCat. How's the trigger on that critter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmarshall Posted July 30, 2020 Share #6 Posted July 30, 2020 Puc, if you like 1911’s and want a palm size 9mm you should take a look at the sig sauer 938. I have one and i love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tufftom4 Posted July 30, 2020 Author Share #8 Posted July 30, 2020 (edited) My EDC is the first gen PPS and I have been eyeballing the HellCat. How's the trigger on that critter? Dry firing it the trigger is pretty clean and crisp and the reset is pretty good I will let you know how it does at the range and I love the sights I wish the pic wasn't blurry.

bpate4home Posted July 30, 2020 Share #9 Posted July 30, 2020 I have an old Police .38 Special that I would carry, it was my uncle's pistol. That thing is spot on accurate. I can pick it up after a year of not shooting and still pop center at 15 - 20 yrds with a few rounds. My Wife has a .380 semi-auto. I've never really been fond of the smaller Semi's though as I think the tend to jam or misfire more than say a .40 or .45. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted July 30, 2020 Share #10 Posted July 30, 2020 Puc, if you like 1911’s and want a palm size 9mm you should take a look at the sig sauer 938. I have one and i love it. I agree that the 938 is a fantastic bun. I have one and love it. I also have P365 though and carry it more due to it's smaller size and higher capacity. Both great guns.

tufftom4 Posted July 30, 2020 Author Share #11 Posted July 30, 2020 People are complaining they can't find ammo I don't have that problem I stocked up a long time ago when it was cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmarshall Posted July 30, 2020 Share #12 Posted July 30, 2020 Yep, i’d say you got some ammo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zagger Posted July 30, 2020 Share #13 Posted July 30, 2020 (edited) You guys certainly go for the big guns. I guess I'd prefer a small gun in my pocket instead of a 9mm sitting at home (I have both). Keltec makes some low cost, simple guns which seem to always work. Their P3AT is my CC choice: https://www.keltecweapons.com/firearms/pistols/p3at/ I like their lack of complications - pull the trigger and it fires. Plus it easily fits into a pocket. I have a little plastic holder just to keep it oriented handle up in my pocket for easy retrieval. zag Edited July 31, 2020 by zagger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDawson Posted July 31, 2020 Share #14 Posted July 31, 2020 I’ve got some big ones for play but a new Glock 43X showed up in my kit today. It will join the ranks of my CCWs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOTS of State or Federal Land tween here n there!! We have 43 acres here, starting on building a pistol pit to shoot, so far only have dug into the bank but will be putting up a backstop. No sense in paying to do its someplace else. So come on up, we can shoot when we aren't riding or ride when we aren't shooting. Your pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowrollwv Posted July 31, 2020 Share #16 Posted July 31, 2020 I am thinking about buying a new Ruger 327 federal mag. What are your thoughts on this gun? This gun can fire 5 different rounds. 32 auto, 32 special, 32 long, 32 H&R mag and 327 Federal Mag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
