Save your pennies for the ultimate 9mm

[45 for me]

I love the look of the Wilson EDC X9. I may actually have to pay the semi outrageous price of $2895. I have a Supergrade from them, and if it works like that, this will be an awesome piece. Wilson developed their own hi capacity frame and put a very custom 1911 upper on it.

It's cool, but $2895?

Yea thats $2000 and change MORE than a friend of mine recently paid for a S&W SS 1911 .45 that shoots incredibly well (3" gongs at 50 yards are easy) and is beautifully fit and finished.​

 

[MrMillspecer]

That's like 30,000 pennies. Whose going to carry them ?

 

[No_Regerts]

I can see it now. You buy this gun and carry it when the day comes you have to shoot some dirtbag with it. Cops show up and have you toss it on the ground, concrete no doubt. It gets kicked away from you and placed in evidence. The evidence room is damp and the gun gets some surface rust. Its returned to you six months later all scratched up with rust on it.

Or carry a $500 Glock 19 and not have near the stomach ache.

Amen... That's why all the purdy 1911's stay in the safe and I'm carrying a Shield now... Just in case...

 

[Kruel J]

Yep, I've got my Shield on me now and if I do have to use it, I could care less if it's turned into paper clips.

 

[Stomper]

So... you DO care a little if it is turned into paper clips!

 

[11Charlie]

If I had the money to just piss away I would do it just so I could let you all shoot it.

I could care less, but I don't.

I know right? It is funny that the EDC stands for Every Day Carry. It would be funny to see the breakdown of how many sit in a safe and how many actually get carried. I learned a long time ago your EDC needs to be a thrasher pistol that you don't really care about (and have a firing pin block). That's why Glocks are perfect. You can't make them uglier, and a Glock is a Glock is a Glock.

But let me be clear. I still want one.

Yeah, about as much as I care what people think about my Glocks.

I've had a G43 in the front right pocket of my shorts all weekend long, while doing yard work, and even at this very second.

My G42 is sitting next to the 19, the 17MOS and the 34 in the safe. The shield is riding next to the "boys" appendix style. I like ALL guns.

I like them more than most people.

My cat is sitting next to me...right freaking now!

I'll second that!

 

[MrMillspecer]

I will stick with the 15oz p938. Or the 2022 if in need more rounds. Reliable accurate, lightweight and $500 range with night sights. Still waiting for the first malfunction. Ok or the .45 mod2 sub compact if I'm feeling spunky.

Ya no Glock. No need.

I'm an equal opportunity carrier... Shield because it's the least expensive .45 I have... And if it got abused, in the event of self defense, it wouldn't make me cry...
