Thread: Personal Firearms

I'm about 5.5 and 145 pounds My most comfortable feeling was with a Berreta Cheetah in .380
That thing fit my hands pefectly. (that should give you an idea of how small my hands are)
Unfortunatly for me, at the moment NY will not provide me with a licence to own, forget about carry. They have many sticks inserted in various orifi in this neck of the woods. So at the moment, all I can do is dream.

I owned a 84FS and it was one of the most precisely built guns I've held. I sold mine to a friend about 5 years ago since I just had other stuff I wanted more.

There are a lot of guns with grips of that size or smaller. I really don't think a 1911 would be too big with the right grips on it.

I carry a Paraordinance 45 which has been reworked to match grade with very thin grips. I have large hands so it fits me great. I say let them see it. They will probably leave you alone!

The Beretta 85F is my go to town carry, I like it because for a small gun it still feels good in my XL Gloved size, hands
I just ordered some of the Buffalo Bore 90gr JHC rounds for it , anyone else tried their stuff ????

My dad had some of their heavy 45 Colt +P. 325 gr(1,325fps/M.E.1,267 ft.lbs.) Kicks like a mule, very fun.

@DonV My BIL just got his Glock 27 this past week, I am pretty sure he said Gen 4 too...Don't feel bad the Background check system is so backed up it took him almost 2 weeks in Colorado to get his..

Yeah. I'm sure I'm far from alone. If anything got me uptight, it was not being able to get the gen 4. I mean, it's the same gun, I really liked the outline of it, instead of being a blunt, squared off muzzle, it was trimmed down some. It looked slicker, it that is the right way to say it. I know I have a long wait ahead of me, but that will give me more range time.
