Just my opinion but I would spring for the Glock 43 for a couple of hundred or so extra.

I would too except for the fact that I purchased this gun mostly for use on my boat.

Having a gun in your hand is much more effective than having the entire police department on the phone!

I fully understand and it is just a thought for future buyers of throw away guns with no tears if they are lost or stolen. A lot of knives can fall into the same two categories--tears or no tears. $500 is a capricious cut off number for me on pistols, everything else being equal.

I still have mixed feelings about carrying my R9. I love the look, the feel, & the quiet elegance of that gun. I baby it to death, and treat it like no other gun I have. I love to look at it and simply hold it. the only comparison I can think of was when I bought a Porsche Carrera Cabriolet and I enjoyed listening to it more than driving it. Oh, what sick puppies we can be.

 The choice between eating your cake and having it too can be a frustrating dilemma with a lot of things in life.

I'm just the opposite with my C7 Vert. I love driving it. My first "New Car" was a '62 Vette, so 52 years later I really appreciate the technology in this new car. 460 HP and 30 MPG. What more could you ask for?

Whatever floats your boat but some would say a Porsche Carrera; your C7 Vette is definitely a player.

Yep I feel the same way.

I'm especially bad about my HK P7M8.  I went shooting this past week with a friend and he asked if I ever fire it.  I admitted it sits in a safe.  I didn't admit to periodically cleaning it and waxing it.

The Kel-Tec P11 can be had now for $200.00 + $15.00 shipping -  cheaper than the SCCY and from what I've heard - basically the same gun.
