thinking of downsizing.....

[kentactic]

Oh you want to get away from 9mm?...

Unless you have tons of guns or some real high end ones no reason to buy a safe. Your TV probably costs more then a handgun and it sits in the open every day. Your car costs much more at stays outside all night.. a few guns in the closet dosent warrant a safe. If you live with phsycos don't but a safe buy a new living situation. Otherwise buy ammo.

Multiple guns-Variety is the spice of life!
9mm, 38 spl, 357 mag, 40S&W, 45 ACP, 44 mag, etc,etc.
Besides, with more guns, you divide the wear and tear between them and they last longer!

One of the justifications I use to keep more and not downsize.

Well yeah I was considering upsizing the caliber.
I'd go 45ACP or 357/.44. it's mostly due to cost and living arrangements at the moment. Plus I have other purchases intended as well. Or I could just stay with 9mm and trade the 40s&w for a 9. Lol
Just thoughts as I don't own a safe and staying with 2a friendly family members.

I gotcha.

Hope that your family members don't have kids. I suggest an HK45 if you wanted a single .45 pistol.

When I "consolidate" it's down to just 4-5 calibers.. of handguns.. lol

Also, if you don't have some sort of safe or security device then you're doing a disservice to the gun community.

Hopefully they are locked up in some fashion...

I 100% disagree.

As firearm owners, we have a responsibility to secure our firearms. It's a helluva lot easier to break in and steal firearms then TVs.

Awful advice. Horrible justification. It's not the cost to replace, but safety.

IF anybody get's a hold of your pistol and is screwing around with it, you'll have a heavy heart for the rest of your life. Not worth it. Spend the couple hundred dollars and get a safe. Some sort of safe to keep your pistols and other valuables secure.

Happy shooting and be safe.

It would be like a girl with an A cup asking "Do my boobs look to big? Should I get a reduction surgery?"

You need to have *something* before downsizing .

It's about keeping it secured and safely stored... It is our responsibility as gun owners and we need to encourage our fellow gun owners to do the same

I 100% agree with you zfields

No children, youngest in the house is 19, my uncle owns a few firearms and is ok with me storing them there for now.
As for what type of gun, I'm already dead set on a shiny 1911 or an awesome revolver. But I could just keep the 9 and sell the 40 or trade for another 9.
But I need a safe, more so when I find a place to live a secure m living arrangements lol.
But Z, enough 9mm rounds plus shot placement should do the job if necessary right? Lol
And the next big purchase after the safe is a semi auto shotgun for skeet anD HD

Uh oh, don't start the caliber debate!

[Euphoria526]

Not debating, deciding a personal choice decision of staying with 9mm or get a shiny 1911. Lol. I'm not starting crap, just asking your opinion.

My HD gun, and my carry gun are 9mm.

Most pistol calibers are pretty much equally ineffective.

[spetsnaz]

buy more

2 is 1 and 1 is None

[lolkopter]

It's good to have options in calibers, you never know when a certain caliber may be out of stock
