In March I'll be turning 21 and off course to celebrate I will be investing my first handgun. All the things I've seen online have been great, but talking to local gun shop owners has been, well, uninformative. They say its a great gun, and claim to have shot one before, but it definitely seems like they just want a sale.
Does anybody out there have any experience with one?
Also I won't be getting a CCW license right away, but after a while with my career choice I'm sure I will be getting one eventually. Is it too big for concealed carry?

probably too big for concealed carry, unless you mean in your car, i carry a 357 in my car so the sky's the limit on size as far as that shit goes

my CHL instructor last year had a PX4...he seemed to like it a lot but they just kinda turn me off honestly. first of all it's one of the ugliest guns ive ever seen, and it's also got all of the same drawbacks as my glock, except the glock does practically everything better than a PX4 from what ive read

so if youre fixated on a polymer framed gun that has almost no frills and no moving parts, get a Springfield XD or a glock 19 or 23, they'll probably be better for you in the long run

but if i had to buy one handgun that would be my ONLY handgun for the rest of my life, i would have to go with some variation of a sig p226. i really cant say enough about how amazing that gun is, im buying one next summer i think.

maaaan that's the worst...when i got that AR in august i knew it was going to be my last new gun for a while cause my money was going to be tied up in ski season and whatnot. at the time i didnt care cause id bought 2 guns recently, but then i started thinking about what i wanted to get NEXT, and that 226 elite has been a dream gun of mine since before i turned 21...

now im freaking out cause i probably wont get it til like june...ughhhhh
