How Do I Get Over My Obsession

[Mr310]

with wonder nines?

S&W, Glock, Sig, HK, Beretta, I can't seem to stop collecting them. I love 1911s, but they don't have the allure for me that these guns have, and I must admit, that they really don't perform all that differently from one another. I need to break the cycle and find a new type of platform.

accept yourself for who you are, and move on with your life. It's not hurting anyone, so keep on keepin' on!

[Fishslayer]

Take one each 4506 & P220 & call me in the morning.

[Mr310]

I dream about your 4536. I want to fondle it on an inappropriate level.

[willerfortheworld]

I feel you.

I want a p99, p30, p2000, usp9,cz sp 01 tac., p229, even a ppq would be sweet..

I have a bad habit of daydreaming about expensive German/Czech handguns with a " p " in their name...weird??

w german P220 can do it. when you become obsessed with getting a P220 in every caliber it was ever manufactured in... you're in trouble.

If I ever attain a .30 Luger P220, game over.

yeperoo.

Embrace it. the 1911, 45acp (hopefully revolver) bugs will eventually bite you if you're lucky.

I'm headed down the same road...

I'm a pure Glock guy, but I take new shooters out fairly frequently. Since Glocks aren't for everyone, I decided to start building a more diverse collection. The obvious answer was to build my collection in 9mm, due to ammo/reload cost & being easy to control for new shooters. As of right now I have a GEN 4 G17, GEN 4 G19 & M&P Shield 9.

Here's my list of 9mm maybe's, in no particular order:

Walther PPQ, HK P30, HK P2000, Sig P229R, XDm 3.8, CZ P01, CZ SP01, M&P

[MRbaker]

The only cure us to buy more! I'm the same way. My first pistol was a XD40 but my second was a Sig 9mm. I've added 3 more 9mms to my collection since and am now looking at adding a CZ and Beretta. Gotta love the price of 9mm ammo.

[Quiet]

IMO...
A collection of wonder nines is not complete, unless you have a Steyr GB.
So, keep collecting.

Totally Normal

P220 affection is totally normal.

One in 9mm, .38super and .45 is a must have. .30 Luger?

yes.

[Mr310]

Yeah I love those old P220s. Never heard of them being chambered in .30 Luger. Sounds expensive.


I have 1911s, and am in the process of a really cool revolver process - getting an old mint condition S&W that my Dad bought brand new 40 years ago. I just don't know what it is about wonder nines. And I'll get a Steyr GB.



Right after I get a P7.
