TEN STEPS TO BUYING A NEW GUN
1) Decide upon what type of gun -- revolver or semi-auto;
2) Decide what type of usage it primarily will be used for -- CCW or other;
3) Decide on round type, i.e., caliber;
4) Hold, handle, feel and fondle -- for ergonomic comparison -- weapons that meet criteria 1 through 3 above;
5) Pare down to three different weapons using above, as well as opinions of friends and gun magazines;
6) Take the opportunity to fire, breakdown and reassemble models under consideration;
7) What do you want? How much can you afford? What static (if any) will a spouse/SigOther raise?
8)Wring your hands in indecision
9) Open your wallet and pay for your new addition.
10) Have fun; be safe; and be safe always as you are having fun.
