New pistola's.....
« on: November 17, 2012, 05:57:42 PM »
Well,

In my never ending quest to deplete my meager firearm money I have recently purchased 3 new pistols.

I'm now broke.....

Kahr CM9  (to replace my Boberg XR9-S)

Springfield Armory XDs (to replace my S&W CS45)

Belgian Browning Hi Power (NIB/1987 mfg) to replace the first Belgian Browning Hi Power I foolishly sold several decades ago.


I am more than pleased with each of them and consider the trade-off of the Kahr and XDs vs those I sold to be in my favor.

With the Kahr I find I can carry it in a rear pocket easier than the XR9-S, plus it will apparently feed and fire, reliably, anything..  (Sweet trigger as well)

With the XDs I find it's smaller and easier to cc iwb than the larger, heavier CS45.   Superb trigger as well.

I had forgotten how sweet Browning Hi-Powers are, how perfectly they " fit" my hand, how accurate they are, and what a pleasure they are to shoot.   :)

Kong rats and +1 on the BHP--an extraordinary firearm.

Glad you got your HP replaced.  It is always regretable losing a Hi-Power.

Jesse:

Recognizing that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, the Kahr and XD don't ring my bell but I find that NIB Browning to be stunning! Congratulations.

Regrettable selling a HP.  I foolishly made the same mistake about 2 years ago and will replace it eventually.  Congrats on your 3 new firearms.  My XDs is really growing on me.  I am carrying it quite often now.  I think you'll really enjoy it.
