Buying the classics

[rwb1500]

Might want to add some milsurps to the list. Makarovs are getting harder to find and more expensive.

Another classic is the HK P7 in any variation

If it were me, I'd buy this. High capacity. Lightweight, ergonomic magic is standard equipment.

Well, all my suggestions have been covered

P226, BHP, the 3rd Gen Smith auto's, CZ 75.

Might be worth lookin into a Tokarev too.

Already have one.

Already have one.

Ditto. My EDC for the past year has been my P30LS Variant 1 in .40 S&W.

So one comes to mind - the Beretta 92FS. I know - calling this a classic is a stretch but it was one of the original "wonder nines".

So I'm wondering variant would be the best to own - the U.S. made M9 or the Italian made 92FS? I'm not a collector but I figure if I pick one I might as well pick the most desirable one.

I say Italian made 92A1...





Merger of classic and modern, and its one bad ass looking beretta. Comes with 3 - 17rd mags.

New 92FS has that new angled up front dust cover, which I think is retarded looking. So I would definatly go with M9(they are still the traditional straight dust cover), if your looking for one without the rail.

If i were you, I'd keep my eyes open for older 92FS INOX - Not the new one with black controls, but older all INOX one with INOX mags.

They do pop up now and then on our classfied section.

Your looking to buy a classic high cap pistol before any ban? Look at A Sig Sauer P-226. IMO thats the best high cap out there.

Having owned or tested nearly every hi cap 9mm pistol out there, I agree 100%. A 92A1 would also be a good choice, but I traded my modded 92A1 for a P226 and didn't look back.

Why does everyone keep assuming that a ban is coming?
