  • New full size pistol

    I'm looking at buyin a new pistol and I'm undecided . So y'all can push me and maybe I can make up my mind . $1200 to spend and no real purpose for owning either, other than punching paper . Looking at a Kimber custom 5" in .45 or a FN 5.7 . They are nothing alike but both fun in their own way. TIA

    Put another $800 to it and get an STI Edge or Tactical

    I am in the same boat as you but I want something in 9mm
    Fuck you. We're going to Costco.

      I would like a Colt LW Combat Commander, if I were to buy a hand gun in that price range. Full frame, slightly shorter than fullsize 1911, and a 9mm.

          If you aren't dead set on a 1911 there are a lot of full size pistols out there that are very accurate and reliable. Nothing wrong with a 1911, but you can definitely blow your budget haha...

          FN FNP45 tactical
          Beretta 92
          Hk45, USP
          Etc.

                    This is one hell of a gun for 1000$. I love mine.

                    If you've got 1200$, you're almost in semi-custom land. Les Baer, STI, etc. Think really hard about buying that Kimber "Custom" with tool marks all over the place when you can buy a genuinely nice, hand fitted pistol.

                      What caliber do you have, Adam? And do they sell conversion slide assemblies for the high-end Witnesses like they do for the base models?

                        I'm pretty sure you can get them. Mine is a 9mm. Just in case I get bored and want to shoot IPSC.

                          The witness race guns are incredible.

                            I would steer clear of the FN 5-7. While accurate, the ammo is hard to find and expensive when you do find it compared to .45, .40, or 9mm...

                              Remind me to let you take mine for a spin one of these days. It's a joy to shoot.
