The glock actually jammed like 5 times that day. I still have to try out a Sig or H&K
Some shooting ranges let you rent guns maybe you can find the pistol you would like to try out there. In fact that's what im going to do this weekend I'd like to try out the Sig 226 and any other Sig pistols they might have since I've never shot one.

I didn't know some shooting ranges rent them out. My ex-room mate has a Sig P226, he really likes it

Hell, some gun shops even have indoor ranges. Nothing like try before you buy. Plus, ask around on local gun forums. Someone is bound to have one at a range you can play with!

I just got the applications for my 01 and 07 FFL! Woot! And I put a target sight on my Beretta!

I carry an RP20 with me sometimes. No permit, but haven't had any trouble yet...

Leaning in the corner of my bedroom is a Mossberg 500A w/ a bird barrel, and a rifled and ported barrel. Also have a K98, a Remington .222, and a Stevens Model 56 .22

Wanted to get anything H&K I could get my hands on when I first moved to VT, but found myself blowing money on the car and rent, so no new firearms.

Dude!

I don;t know about your state, but all it's going to take is one time getting caught packing a loaded gun without a permit and you'll be hatin' it.

Do the right thing and leave it at home or get a CCW if you can.
