    Need help choosing a gun

    Hi guys,
    I am in a process of purchasing another handgun. I already have a SIG P228 and I love it but I am looking to get something else. I am thorn between two guns now. One is Baby eagle in .40 calibre and the other is Kimber Stainless Pro Raptor II. I know there is a huge price difference but if the price different was not an object which one would you go for? BTW the Kimber is .45 APC

    Any input will be appriciated.

    Thanks

    i'm a huge fan of kimbers and 1911s so my vote is the pro raptor II.

    btw your lucky to have that 228, their hard to get

      Go for the Kimber! You already own one of the best double action semiauto pistols made, now it's time to buy a .45!

        I'm a 40 fan but I would recommend you to get the Kimber. If you have your eye set on baby eagle, check out the CZ75 first before you go out of your way to find a Jericho.

        Jericho/baby eagle is a nice gun and all. But why go out of your way to find a clone (and pay extra $) when CZ is widely available.

          Once you get a 1911 you'll never want to shoot anything else untill you go broke buying .45, lol. Get the 1911 but don't be stuck on a Kimber check out other brands also. See what you like and how it feels in your hand and if you can rent some at a range and put some rounds thru it.
