I need a BUG

[mej16489]

AMT Backup .45ACP

[BigRich]

The AMT B/U 45 is a heavy chunk of a gun. Mine was rough, unreliable and inaccurate even at close range. I sold it off as soon as I could. It also has a horrendous trigger pull. It would not ride well in front pocket carry.

I'm left handed so I don't like double action revolvers.

That's a confusing statement.

How would that matter when you're hunting, target shooting or even carrying it as a back-up? Don't think many folks plan on reloading a snubbie that's carried as defensive gun. It's a very close quarters firearm, not a cross street shoot-out, tactical entry/fighting gun.

off roster and probably nicer than a kahr
walther pps

I like the Beretta Tomcat with silver tip ammo.

[HowardW56]

S&W J frame!

How does the SA EMP compare in size to the PM9?

+1 on the PPS, I love mine, it's so thin it disappears.

Since you dont like the Kel-Tecs (P32, P3AT, P11 or PF9), or the Ruger LCP, here are some other choices you might like:

Kahr CW9, P9, PM9 or P380
NAA Guardian
Rohrbaugh R-9
Ruger LCR
Seecamp LWS380
S&W J-frame revolver
Taurus small frame revolver
Walther PPS

I would recommend the Kahr CW9 or P9, but since you're already looking at the PM9, go with that. Perfect for carry concealed or as a back up. If you want smaller, theres a Kahr 380.

It wouldn't surprise me if 90% of LAPD and LASD who carry BUG carry a lightweight Smith J frame.

[Quickdraw Mcgraw]

+1 on the Kahr CW9 I frikkin love mine! 15oz. and 3000rds without a single problem...even my glock23 has a few jams in the first 3000rds!

otherwise mabye a seecamp....32 or .380?? never shot one, but...

[Sobriquet]

Heckler & Koch P2000sk.

[jmf_tracy]

i would suggest either the kahr PM-9, XD9 subcompact or CZ 2075 RAMI 9mm. i have all three and like them and my CZ 2075 RAMI is for sale in the firearms section.

The PM9 is good enough to be a primary, but small enough to be a BUG.

It's really hard to be competitive with it, and I've yet to see something beat it.
