Hey fellas, i have been looking into getting a new handgun for a daily carry.
I have a couple that I have been thinking about.
FN-57
FNX-45
PPQ
VPN-9
SW M&P 9 Shield.
I am looking for a higher capacity, around 8-12 rounds total. I carried a Kimber Custom II for about a year and it was nice, but big. I was looking to carry something a little more compact every day that I would'nt have to worry taking up my entire hip.
Hence why I have the shield up there, she's a pretty decent little gun, the range I go to all the time has a loner one, and Ive gotten really good with it.
I have always wanted a 5.7 but ammunition costs seem way too steep to make shooting enjoyable without losing my shirt or getting into reloading to make it an everyday thing. but having 20 rounds of AP that can reach and touch a motherfucker through a car door would be pretty sweet. Fortunately, I don't have to protect POTUS so I think I may be good to go on skipping owning a 5.7, but I want one bad, but Im not sure shelling out 1000 bucks on a all polymer gun is what I want to do.
The FNX-45 with a double stacked .45 looks fucking amazing, and I am leaning heavily towards that, unless I can find a used VPN-9 that I can shoot.
I did see a really good review from the PPQ that this dude did, which caught my attention, id like to check it out.
