Last I heard the special forces were carrying H/Ks. I have a couple of these, and it is a VERY high quality gun. I also agree wit everyone else, you can't go wrong with a Kimber. I also agree that you should stay away from the Tek-9. I had one once. They are truly junk!

I owned 2 HK's a 9 and a .40 and they were both very nice guns but I have smaller hands and they have very large grips. Glock seems to have a very canted grip so I am not fond of them although they are great guns.

I have a Sig P220 in .38 Super and I love it. Also a S&W 1006 10mm. Both fit me well because of the single stack clips. The sig is a lot nicer gun. It's a bit like boats, buy what you like, but don't buy a that POS you friend is selling.

STAY AWAY from the Tech 9...get a real gun!

Another vote for Sig Sauer. Have the P230 and love it.

Tech 9....90s version of a saturday night special stay away unless you need a small boat anchor ;)

I agree stay away from the Tech 9. unless you want to stand around drinking 40's of malt liquor.

You get what you pay for in guns!!!!! Personally I love my ruger 9mm and Colt AR-15, Ruger could be more accurate, Colt is Dead ON.

Go with a 45ACP. I really like the new Kimbers but have had a Colt Ociffers model for a number of years. Whatever you get make sure you practice shooting it!

Thanks for the info. I had no idea they were a POS. I'll just stay with my taurus pt99, 9mm and my S&W 357. along with my Kel-tec 9mm and my target 22's pistols. Thanks again. Also, My friend is looking for a Glock 9mm any body have a good price on them? Looking thru shotgun news for some good pricing.

Thanks,
Rick

Wow...I must have the only Tec 9 in existance that doesn't jam! And I can shoot the eyes out of a sparrow at 50 yards with the thing. Always interesting to be at the gun range, slap in a 50 round clip, and start to shoot out the bullseye mark...it's like the air guns at the carnival when you shoot out the star!

NICKSLICK 02-11-2002 02:45 PM

I just use my DESERT EAGLE .50 as my primary carry, and CASSUL .454 as my backup (ankle) gun.

When I go to the range, I take out the bullseye, and most of the target with just one shot...

:eek: :eek: :eek: :D :D :D :cool:
