Call me old fashioned, but I am still a firm believer in the 45. I'll take the knock-down power of the trusty 45 over the penetration of a 9 any day, especially if you load up with Hyrdo-shocks. My favorite mix is alternating ball ammo with Hydro-shocks, so I have the optimum load at least 50% of the time. When I score a hit, I want them to fall down, not just punch a hole through them. https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2005/03/1.gif

Well, thank you, Pilgrim! I'm sure The Duke was a 45 man as well. https://forums.windrivers.com/images.../2005/03/1.gif

I'm in Denver all this week, working and looking for a temporary apartment to move into Nov 1st. After that I'll look for a house, but real estate is mucho expensive here, almost 3-4x the price of houses in El Paso. Its great to see snow covered mountains out your office window, I think I'm going to enjoy it here. :thumbs:

Whereabouts is the office? I worked down in the Denver Tech Center for 4 years and lived downtown. House prices are the only reason we actually left Denver - it's a great city with tons to do and yes, the mountains are great :thumbs:

He can, he just needs permits to do so in any country he takes it to if he's from PA like I think. In Philly it was actually really easy to get a permit to carry for some time until they started cracking down on it.

don't blame ya there squid, I have a .357 too that I love due to raw power, but it's too damn big to carry. - this 9 is a very small gun, and real easily concealed. I love 45's

Actually, yeah, I am from PA - central PA, and permits to carry are not hard to get here at all.

I used to make some trips to Philly in my youth (if ya_know what I mean), and I can see why handgun permits are easy to get down there.
