Re: What compact to get?

Teamless:

For picture and specs purposes, the above link is to Budsgunshop.com in Kentucky.
They have a Taurus PT111 Millenium Pro, blue, for $319. This is similar to my gun,
which has about 1500 rounds through it and has been stone cold reliable. I got my
gun on sale at Academy in January 2009 for only $279.99, but it's a first generation
Millenium. Which means it's only a 10 + 1, not 12 +1 like the Millenium PRO's.

If you got it through Bud's, though, you'd have to pay a FFL transfer fee.
IIRC, Academy usually has them for about $329.99. Some of the posters above
have suggested that you go to their favorite gun, but at prices that meet or exceed
$500. If you want to stick with a 9, I don't think you'll find a cheaper gun that works
as well as a Taurus Millenium.

Here's your choices as I see it: Spend about $330 right away and get the 12 + 1 PT111,
which will be a reliable 9mm shooter.

Or if you can hold on for a while, save up and move up to something suggested above.

Hey, right now you've got the Sigma, so it's not like you have to buy a new piece today.

Make sure to read joe817's link above to compact 9's.

Decisions, decisions. Let us know what you decide on, unless it's a Jimenez Arms.
That would be TMI (too much information). :-)
