EAST TEXAS HOG DOGGERS FORUM

My wife has a keltec now and while it is a good beater gun the trigger pull kills her accuracy so looking for something that preferably is easy and reliable in a 9mm not cheap but not real expensive.  I'm not real experienced with semi auto handguns and a little out of date on them. Buddy said go with a kimber solo.  Figured maybe get a couple more suggestions.   

My wife carries a a Turis pt740 slim 40 cal.

My wife's temper matcher her rad hair, give her a gun  :D Man are you nuts

My wife just carries a picture of me.... worked real well so far...  ;) ;D

 wife carries a springfield xd .45

Guys look at it and realize how ugly you are and feel sorry for her.  It takes a good woman to marry something as ugly as you is what they're thinking j/k with ya Noah

I'd never give my wife a gun, I'd be the first victim and my dogs would probably the second victims

Colt, I carry a Taurus Millennium .9mm, and I love my gun, but it has the longest, and hardest trigger that I have ever had. A friend of mine has a Ruger .9mm that I LOVE to play with. Tap taps are incredibly easy with it. Might look at one of those?

Really like the ruger lc9. My wife likes a glock 26.

I carry a Taurus .380

Works great for me, and easy to conceal.

Fiancee carries a ruger lcp380 the ruger lc9 is nice as well. I have a CZ P07 Duty not as small as the micros but its easy to conceal holds 16rds of 9 and is really accurate/reliable pistol

A gunsmith can do a little trigger work on most guns. Don't try it yourself it can be too much of a hair trigger. You really have to be careful with the semiauto or as soon as you get it loaded it might unload. Call gunsmiths and ask how much. As long as the gun is accurate then fix the trigger.

I do not like guns so I do not carry one but I have asked on several ocassions for a fish hook taser and for *some* reason that request has been denied many many times  :angel: :angel:

Mandi carries a S&W 59 in a 9mm, or a Uberti .357, basically a Colt SAA.

Had a Kel Tec in the past, but have opted for full size handguns these days. We also keep some Taurus .357 mag snub nose pistols around in various places.

Dub, I have talked to a couple of different gunsmiths, and they all say that the Millennium trigger is a you get what you see trigger. They all said that it doesn't matter what you do, they are next to impossible to make a huge change in it.

Wife and I both have Springfield Armory xd 40 sub-compact.

Grizzly bear pepper spray

Purebreed, I had the same problem. I was carrying a smith and wesson 38 revolver, and the trigger pull killed that gun form me. I shot several semi automatic handguns and found that I was the most accurate (and really enjoyed shooting) the Springfield xd 9mm. A gun with a little bit of weight works best for me-- don't know if your wife is the same way or not, but I hope this helps!!

My daily carry is the springfield XD .40 sub compact.  My wife doesnt carry a gun, BUT she does have a 1 million volt taser/flashlight--- this thing is WICKED.

Girlfriend has a judge with 4-10 slugs. She's had it for a year and a half and still hasn't pulled the trigger one time but I've killed a few snakes with it and it's a cool cool gun.

i used to work with a repo guy that was a felon and thats what he would carry.. that stuff is the real deal

My wife loves her sig p226 9mm

Ruger lcr .38 and walther pk380

I am a man but the Springfield xd,s are awesome way more accurate than any auto I've used. the triggers are very smooth. I carry it in a nine and use it for backup when hunting too.   .40 is better but took it in trade on a job.

My wife carries springfield xdm 9mm. All these springfields are great guns, match grade barrels, holds 16 shots. Extremely dependable. Their makin an xds now. S stands for slim. Its pocket sized. Damn good guns

I haven't shot one, but the kimber solo's and carry's look and feel awesome!

Got my wife a glock 26 a couple months ago. She has put about 400 rounds through it now and the little gun is pretty acurate and she shoots it well. Never been a fan of 9mm's but she can put the lead where she wants to so it should serve her well if lord forbid she ever has to use it
