When I go back to Mexico, although we will be doing the "Bed and Breakfast Rental Cabin" thing from the get-go, I also intend to set up a small armed Security company. I have all the Political help I would need to do that already with my wife's family and the advantage of having one is the permit to carry "while working on Security contracts" through your company. My "contracts" will be my wife's family of Politicos, thus allowing myself and my immediates to be readily armed without having to skirt so many rules and regulations. Another advantage is that a Security Company is not tied down to the regular "caliber restrictions" that Mexican Law applies to regular civilians. Thus, we could have the 9mm.
I can get Beretta 92fs pistols pretty much "donated" to the cause by going through the paperwork obstacle course, whereas anything else I would have to actually pay for. When I lived in Canada back in the olden days, I had a Beretta 92F right up until I sold my stuff and left at the end of 1990. The FS has some minor differences and I am concerned about "making the Beretta work" for the entire family due to it's size. Thus, to answer your question, "yes, I will buy another handgun even though the election did not go well." It will give me time to see if my wife (and kids, who will pop by to visit from time to time over the next 3 years) can make the Beretta work for them as well. My other future "employee" is still back in Mexico and his hands are gorilla sized anyway, he won't have a problem with one.
We had a S&W 3904 and a Glock 19 in Mexico but I sold them when we came back here to Canada in 2016. Both were quite popular with the family but there were several things about each model I felt uncomfortable with when the wife or kids were using them. With the S&W I did not like the fact that the hammer-dropper safety could be accidently left in the down position making the firearm "on safe" if you needed it in a hurry (which would usually be how you needed it in that environment). The Glock does not give you "double-strike" capability and with some of the rock-hard primers that Technos Industrias ammo sometimes has and can cause a light strike on the first try. I saw this happen with many different Glocks using the Technos ammo over the years and laughed with a bit of a shudder when I saw the problem portrayed (correctly) in the movie "Man on Fire".
So I will soon enough get myself a Beretta 92sf and "work out the bugs" while I'm up here working anyway. It's a project, and projects can cost money. I look at it as an investment I may never get back, but probably will when it comes time to sell it and leave. (I'll take the short trigger, the D-spring, the G-Model safety conversion and the thin grips with me though).
You simply cannot let some politician ruin your life. If you do, he wins. And we were going to do this anyway, no matter who won or what they promised.
