He still has one (pictured) although from the pic (kinda fuzzy) I can't tell... did you keep the 45 of the 22?

Those are both 45's in the pics if that is what you're asking.

I want one of those one day, too. They fit my hand perfectly.

same with me... plus i love the stopping power of them and they are a great concealed weapon for personal protection...

Realistically though if i could get my hands on 7.65x17mm version i would absolutely go with that instead of the 380

.380 is deffinalty not what i would consider a good stopping power round IMO. but whatever floats your boat.

I had a Walther P22 for practice and plinking wasn't a bad gun just had a few to many issues.

here they are in order top down

XD-45ACP
RIA 1911-A1
Bushmaster M4A3
Mossburg 500 20ga
Remington 597 22lr
Remington 870 express (Also have slug barrel for deer season)

the last picture is a close version of my baby. i cant wait to get the smaller brother.

If you can't stop someone with a .380 hollow point then there is something wrong... There are a couple schools of thought on this one...

Even though i have never been in a situation where i would have even considered drawing a pistol on someone, I have taken a defensive handgun course with my bro recently... and the extra weight of the 45 that i was using definitely slowed me down and messed with my aim...

I was using a sig saur 22 originally... the Mosquito... didnt like that switched over to my brother's friends ppk/s and wow... loved it...

And for home protection this is all i ever want

then you sure have weak hands bro... lol. i don't want to have to shoot more then once and unless you have taken defensive stress training i don't think anyone should have less than a 9mm. if its my ass on the line i want the biggest hunk of shit flying through the air i can find. i was actually looking at the bersa 380 before i decided on the 9mm or 40xd.
