Nothing different, really. Actually, it does the exact same thing my other guns do - make me happy I bought them.

Purchased my 1st gun to carry concealed ,too and from work, as I was afoot at the time.
( Five shot s.s. revolver)

My 2nd hand gun was a 6 shot, 4 inch revolver.
It let me hit targets that were farther away that four feet.

#3 was a semi auto Ruger P90,
Because more capacity , quicker reloads.

#4
Was a Springer XD, to replace the SP101,
Four times more accurate more ammo, better sights, very similar size and weight.

I suppose when it comes to guns,a guy can be too pragmatic.





Safety, Situational Awareness and proficiency.

I think the last handgun I bought was my New Vaquero. It does what my Glocks can't do, and it does it very well: it handles the cowboy gun role. Big Grin

Nothing that others that I have couldn’t already do. Just a private party sale that was a great deal. Too good to pass up. Rarely do I find those type deals. Maybe the 2nd or 3rd of my lifetime.

Not only does the last handgun I bought not do anything different... I originally bought it as a backup to a gun that is almost exactly the same. I then sold it, to buy yet another gun that's almost exactly the same. Recently the guy I sold it to wanted to sell it, so I bought it back! So that's "does the exact same thing" times 3 or 4??

"The pistol chooses you."

Warhorse tricked me into holding one and that was it.

The pistol just fit my bum right paw so well that it said, "you've been chosen, let's go home."

Never looked back.

Have never held a double stack so svelte and 16+1 at that, not to mention it conceals and carries like a dream.

I bought a new cz 75 matte stainless and had cz custom convert it to sao because they discontinued the stainless guns and it’s got a great trigger job over my black cz75 sa

Holds many more boolits.

Works all the time.

Both pretty important.


Vero8...sidebar...interested in what that second key from the bottom goes to. That a pretty serious looking key.

Don’t answer...lol...but it’s a good chance to point out that it’s possible to duplicate a key from a picture if a person is motivated enough.




Knowing what one is talking about is widely admired but not strictly required here.

Although sometimes distracting, there is often a certain entertainment value to this easy standard.

Um...the latest one shoots 22LR. Out of a cylinder. The one immediately preceeding it could not. So I suppose that's one in the plus column for the new one... Wink

My newest handgun?
Well, it holds fewer, but bigger bullets.
It has a LOT more steel in its construction.
It weighs quite a bit more, but is slimmer.
It has an ambidextrous thumb safety.
It has a single action only (and much better) trigger.
It has nowhere to put a weapon light.

What is it, you ask?

I find Berettas to be more reliable than Colts and CZs, so I am going that direction.
