    First I owned (Dad gave it to me) was a Browning HP. First I bought was a little Beretta .22 that I carry when fishing in case I get the chance to take a snapping turtle.

    My first one and only one right now is a SIG P226 in 9mm. My mom bought it for me since i am not 21. I carry it everyday and love shooting it.

    My first was a stainless S&W 6" 686-2. Me and my buddy each bought one new on sale, plus our employee discount, for $185 each. He eventually traded his for a new engine for his VW bus. I still have mine. Gone everywhere with me.

    Ruger P-89, the only good one they made.. I've shot several others and they all sucked, if I had that experience before I never would have taken the chance.. My wife cried on the way home from the gun store, she's now asking me for a Walther PPKs for her first carry weapon.
    I lent the P-89 to my uncle 8 years ago because his daughter was being stalked and threatened by her ex-husband and all my uncle had was a 6 5/8" K frame Smith. I should really get it back one of these days..



    I carry a USP compact .40 now, no comparison, no need for much else :thumbsup:

    Long ago...had a 38 Rossi. No complaints. Broke down and bought a Ruger P-90. Big and heavy but it shot flawlessly.
