If you had $1000.00 to spend on a handgun..

[maliboy67]

Ruger Redhawk 4.2" 44 magnum

I would buy the Glock 17 if given the 2 caliber choices.

 

[H.K.Glock 007]

Put it in an rrsp.....NO? HK p30L.

 

[Woodeneye]

1000$=g17Gen4(699.99$)+taxes(105$)+800 Rds of American Eagle Ammo(180$)+(23$Tax)=1003$.

 

[youthshooter]

Glock23 with Streamlight TLR-1 with 2 extra mags

 

[shaolin555]

Glock 34 gen4.

I concur!

 

[JBD]

What would you buy? Would you grab a 9mm or .45acp?

9mm is cheaper to shoot than 45 ACP. If you are looking at cost for the gun you should consider the cost to shoot unless you are just going to stick it in a safe and admire it.

 

[243pete]

Glock 17 gen 4 with Trijicon night sights and multiple spare mags. Or a Glock 34 gen 4 with multiple mags... I somehow see this not ending any time soon.

 

[NavyCuda]

Another P226 in 9mm or .357 sig.

 

[SpoonMan]

Beretta Stainless 9mm or Beretta Stampede in 357mag!

SM

 

[Van Isle]

P226 in .22LR then wait 'till next paycheque and get the 9mm conversion. ($656 + $362 = $1028 @Questar) and cash my empties for an extra mag for each caliber.

 

[sillymike]

Is this your first handgun?

Will you be using it for plinking only, or are you planing on playing any specific games?
(IPDA/IPSC/Bullseye/PPC)

Do you reload?

 

[ampegor]

I'm a little different than the others
1. a good used smith model 52
or
2. a good used smith model 625 5"

 

[Starscream]

If I could get the parts incase of a breakage, probably an H&K (I like polymer and DA/SA). As if however if something does break on your H&K you're basically SOL with the current situation in Canada.

So I'm happy with a sig.

 

[Home3]

Model 83 Freedom Arms, in 454 Casull. Premier Grade with 6" barrel.

 

[Pancake81]

Smith and Wesson model 29, and have it cut to 4.2

 

[Canuck44]

M&P Pro in .40cal, install the Apex FSS trigger and shoot it in IDPA ESP Division downloaded to 130 PF and IPSC Standard Division loaded to meet major. Best of both worlds.

Take Care

Bob
ps If you don't reload than the Pro in 9MM due to ammo costs and shoot it IDPA SSP Division and IPSC Production Division with a heavier trigger return spring.

 

[bushii]

It would be the gun I bought yesterday on the EE. A Springfield 1911-A1 fully loaded. Novak night sights, full length guide rod, ambi safety,widened ejection port, adjustable trigger, parkerized finish,flat main spring housing , beaver tail grip safety,all steel construction. Doesn't get much better IMHO..lol

 

[johNTO]

Smith and Wesson model 29, and have it cut to 4.2

....to go with your 4.2" Redhawk 44mag?
I'll be putting my name down when S&W comes out with the 4.2" 29!

 

[Donster 125]

all the handguns i want are over $1000

Perhaps a S&W 629 CDN edition if it is ever released

 

[5440fight]

A nice used glock17 $550, and a new norc 45 $350 . Spend the rest on ammo.
