Hello racer111,
I am interested in buying a "cheaper" pistol just for plinking. I would consider myself as more of a rifle person. However, I also want to shoot pistols. I owned several pistols and some of them are expensive ones, e.g., Sig X-5 allround and HK Mark23. Whenever I get tired of them I end up selling them and loosing about $400 or more. I was thinking, of buying a cheaper (but good) pistol, and once I get tired of it and re-sell, I will not loss lots of money. As you said, you shot 1500 with your NP58 and never had a problem with it and it shoots more accurate than any pistol that you've shot. May I know what kind of pistols you are comparing it to? Thank you.
