How do you know what the right handgun to purchase …..
Thank you Shawn, and to answer your question this is a topic
that is commonly answered by friends, family, and salesmen alike. Normally when someone gives advice on a
firearm to purchase, it is normally personal preference you are hearing. If you
were to ask me in my younger years my answer would be to get a Smith and Wesson.
There is nothing I hold against the other brands of firearms just my personal
preference and what I was taught in the past. Yes, everyone knows I am a big
Smith and Wesson fanboy and as of right now have no desire to change that.
Shawn, if you are looking to find the right handgun my
suggestion would be to go to a reputable firearms dealer and ask to hold a view
firearms that spike your interest. If you like how the gun feels in your hand,
that is just the first part of discovering the right handgun to purchase. The
second part would be to see if that firearm dealer has the capabilities to
allow you to fire the same model. Just because the firearm feels good in your
hand does not mean you will feel the same way after the shot goes off.
After getting the feel for a few different makes and models
and taking them to fire, your decision should be easier to make. Just be cautious
of certain firearm dealers who attempt to sale more of a certain kind of
firearm due to the incentive deals they get from a certain number of sales. Follow
your heart and feel what is right for you. Do not be so quick to just get a
firearm and in a few weeks you are not happy with your purchase.
Do some research on the internet, look for some features
that stand out to you for example, one of the deciding factors for me is to
purchase a handgun without a safety. Remember my experience level is very
different from yours, and this decision is made more from the aspect of
competition shooting. Find some features that will make you’re deciding factor
a beneficial purchase.
