Looking for a new gun. Possibly a snub nose revolver, something compact and light. If anyone know's of a good deal or wants to sell theirs - let me know. Possible trade for Parts or labor!! Either way, any input would be appreciated!! </ARMATA/> {:shoot} {sniper} ~>}

Glock 26, baby Glock
A sweet little rig. I'm not trading mine :)

How bout something for a lady? I have seen some .380 pistols but I need something that won't scare my wife right from the get go.
-
Ben, what about a Lady Smith?
I had a Springfield Armory XMD-40. It shot great and felt perfect, but it was just to heavy and bulky. I definitely couldn't carry it anywhere!!
I know that a smaller more compact gun will not be as accurate, but I have to be able to hide it from my 2 sons! (which go through EVERYTHING!!) {spank}

I like the smaller .380's and have shot a friends Ruger a bit. Its snappy but not a hard recoil. You probably wont be shooting 15 yrs much with it but up close the .380 will do some damage when it starts bouncing around inside someone. Everyone likes to suggest the hamer-less .38 light weight revolvers... while a good gun, its a .38 round with little weight so it will have more recoil.
-
It has to be small and easy to conceal. I prefer larger guns but for my wife, smaller is better.
-
Sig makes a very nice .380...identical to a 1911, just really compact. Or a ruger LC9. Its a very slim 9mm. Both are perfect for concealment. I carry the sig on me inside my waistband and my glock 22 stays with me in the truck.

I got ariel a Smith and Wesson 38 body guard comes with a laser no hammer so it won't get snagged in a bag or jacket pocket. It's what a lot of cops wear on they're ankle. After I got it and shot it I wanted to go get another for me
-
What did it cost?

I'm not a revolver fan though. It's not easy to conceal unless they have a huge purse. Then again we are referring to females so thats not an issue. The other thing would be in the event they need to reload, it's not as easy either. plus any revoler does not have a safety. hamerless or not, if they somehow jam the trigger hard enough it WILL fire.
Also, the laser on a bodygaurd is a button style you have to turn on. in an emergency situation, the last thing i'm gonna do is look for the little laser button. I feel your better off with a standard firearm and using something along the lines of an iron sight. ie: truglo or night sight that glows in the dark.
here's a pic of the sig. It looks just like a 1911, only the size of a small keltec. it's on the heavy side too so it's relatively nice to shoot.

I like that. Will look into this. {cheers2}
-
It's a Sig Sauer P238. It's a heavy little .380 and it shoots like a full-size. Your gonna pay some money for one but they're great shooting pistols.
-
WOW That Sig is expensive!!!!!!!!!!! 600.00 - Call me old school //OLDSKOOL// , but I'm wanting to spend more like $300.00 on one. Is that to cheap, should I expect to spend more? I really don't want a POS

I got my body guard brand new at the gun show for $379.00(price tag) I got that and a s&w sigma .40 for $716 after taxes

If your looking for a no frills small compact gun that you can put in your pocket and almost forget it's there I say go with the Ruger LCP 380. Its relatively cheap and I havent had a single problem with mine (Almost 2 years Now). I carry mine in a Desantis Pocket Holster and no one is the wiser. The only problem is the LCP still leaves me feeling a little underpowered if the need was to arise where I would actually need it. The gun basically has minimal sights.
While this is definitely a personal preference and everyone has a different opinion I would suggest picking up the G26 or G27 and a good holster. 10 Rounds of .40cal in a pretty small package with decent sights is pretty hard to beat.
As a disclaimer I know nothing about revolvers and therefore chose not to comment but I will say that I have been eyeballing a Smith & Wesson Bodyguard for a while now.

Can I also say how stupid easy it was for me to buy two hand guns. Took me 10min tops for the paper work and background check. These were my first guns I bought myself and I figured it would be way more of a lengthier process.
-
Like I said...the sig is pricey. But the ruger is a nice gun. Its basically a double action pistol though. The hammer is just covered. The s&w sigma is an entry level pistol. Its affordable and will fire but it is not a target pistol. Its not as bad as a high point, but its nothing like the glock they copied and were sued over. The sigma is a full size though.

Check out the Rock Island compact. 3.5 in bbl. You can get em in .45 or 9mm. Usually around 350 to 400. 1911 style.

Is the Body Guard more of a woman's gun? I sold my AK47 last night, so I am in the market again!!
Here is a link to upcoming gun shows: http://www.gunshows-usa.com/georgia_gun_shows.htm

if you already had a xdm 40 why not go to the sub .40? i have one and carry it everywhere.. bigger then most but its not so small that i have to worry about someone thinking its a toy and its not so big that I have problems pulling it..
but i know danny you have small hands.. and maybe you should stick to a .22 ruger or something like that.. I know bass pro has a pink .380... cheap... almost bought it for the wife... should fit your hands like a glove... LOL </LMAO/>

I have a 19 also and it is one of my daily carry guns..If you get one get a GEN 3
