Re: New CHL and New Hand Guns User
Thanks All for the responses. I did qualify on a Sig .40 (I rented) and I agree the recoil on my wrist did cause issues (was recovering from an injury) .. no not from that!).
Annoyed Man; Sorry to say but I have been looking at Glock. Specifically I was interested in a G26 for an EDC. Im kinda wigging out about being made.... I hope it goes away but will always be aware....
As for a range I qualified at Top Gun and they have numerous selection of rentals.
To address my location... This is tricky
I have a house in Richmond (off 99) but; due to my job I'm on the road a lot and was planning to take it with me. The states I go to do have reciprocity with Tx. The only issue I need to look up is how much of a hassle it would be to drive across Canada (Mi thru Ny to VT). I usually do that drive and I have read about NY. Although I could just fly but that ride is my me time...

Hello All,
I have been lurking for a week now and a lot of good questions and answers. I have decent amount of experience with rifles but less on hand guns. I am currently tossed between a 9mm and a .40. We will leave makers out for now. Since I believe like the rest of you that practice makes improvements and knowing you all have more experience overall and I will practice a lot; If looking at round cost comparison of 9mm vs .40 would it be beneficial to go with 9mm and upgrade later as experience and skills improve?
Background on me: Originally from Connecticut and transplanted hear 5 years ago. I'm a Mechanical Engineer specializing in permanent magnet motor/generator technology; currently doing wind turbines.
Im sure I will have more questions but I have been doing searches for a lot of them.
thanks for any response/feedback.
John
