Just looking for some opinions and input. I am going to be purchasing a handgun for concealed carry as soon as I make up my mind what I want. (keep in mind that I am going to go about this legaly) I am tossed up between a Kimber Ultra Compact and a Glock 30 or 36. Im not really interested in any other manufacturer or caliber other then .45acp.
I know the first thing everyone is going to say is I need to spend some range time with each to make a decision...and I already have. I really like aspects of the Glock 30/36 as well as the Kimber Ultra Compact. Of course the Glocks are alot cheaper and have long been known for their reliability. I like the way they feel and I shoot well with them. My only complaint is that they only have a trigger safety...which to be honest scares me a bit. Now, I do feel compaled to say that I am a long time 1911 fan and I love Kimber's. The only real hang up I have for one is the price. They have a manual safety which I like and I shoot very well with one. I currently own a full frame Kimber and love it. I hate to make it sound like I am putting a price on the ability to deffend myself becuase that is not the case. I am just stating the only issue which really isnt an actual issue with the firearm itself.
Anyways I am just looking for some honest opinions regarding the choices I have stated. Just some friendly conversation and discussion about them with people who share the same interest. Please, you know who you are...if you dont have anything possitive to add to this and just want to bash and disrespect, then please dont comment or post. I appreciate any possitive input anyone may give.
Thanks
