Handgun Purchase for 2007?

No more handguns for me for a while but my wife is showing signs of wanting one for home defense when I am out of town...

She's pregnant right now and should be giving birth near the end of March because of this she is starting to think that being able to protect herself and our new child when I'm not home makes a lot of sense. To think that just 5 years ago she was basically anti-gun...

None of my handguns are really suitable for her so I have been racking my brain on which one to get her. She is not overly firearms friendly so the simplier the action the better which means a small revolver.

I have been talking up (and actually pointed one out to her last year) a 5" barreled S&W model 60 J frame 5 shot 38 Special/357mag with a Crimson Trace laser grip on it. Here's a link to an article by Jeff Quinn @ Gun Blast http://www.gunblast.com/SW60_KitGun.htm
 
Ruger New Vaquero, .45colt, 5.5" barrel, case colored blue.
All ordered and waiting to be delivered.

Can't wait, I have 5000 wax bullets and plan on trying my hand at fast draw.

I received a phone call this afternoon to tell me the transfer was approved and the gun was ready to be picked up.Who said restricted transfers were slow in Ontario?

I started my transfer in AB on Wednesday afternoon. By Thursday 9:00 am, it was approved.

So, I still say Ontario transfers are slow. :D
 
I just bought a Glock 22 from Police Ordnance today. Gotta love that LEO/Military discount. $920 shipped with 3 extra mags, night sights, extended mag release and extended slide catch.

Knowing how transfers go in Nova Scotia, it'll probably be approved and shipped by Thurs.
 
I'm too late to this thread! I picked up this S&W model 25-2 last week:

I love to get a SIG P220 SS, a P226 .40S&W Equinox and a Steyr M40A-1.

All I need is moolah, one day I'll have them!
 
Not supposed to buy anything in 2007 due to a very big 'special levy' due in May for my leaky condo but I bought a S&W 625 a few weeks ago....:redface: Hell, if I gonna borrow the money for the levy, why not a little extra for a toy I figure . I told the Mrs. that I was being reasonable and responsible because I only borrowed enough for the levy and 1 gun..:D ;) :cool:
 
At the top of my list would be a either a HK USP tactical 45 so I can put a suppressor on it (USA GUN) or a Bretta 90-two, since I dont have a Bretta yet and i would like to add one to my lil collection. Somewhere in there a sig too.
