the average distance in which personal defense shots are taken is at a distance of
21'.

Will also pick up another .357 Wheel gun 2/4" to go with my 6? S/S Ruger Security Six,if I find a good deal! Because of all the nut jobs out there I am starting to carry more!
So what do you CCW with or shoot at the range ?
Anyone have a 9mm rifle? What brand? Pros and cons as I am looking :)
Thanks and Ride Safe!

i have a HiPoint 9mm Carbine..and yes they are cheap guns but before anyone bashes them i have thousands of round through it and as long as you keep it clean its flawless the only problem is the small clips. Love my ruger p89 but its a little heavy for the concealed carry vest so i just carry the girlfriends cool blue zebra print walther pk380 haha very manly

I'm looking into a range about 20 miles away. They don't have a waiting list so I should be able to get in. a bit expensive though but if I want to shoot I'll have to pay the dues. I'll get the hang of the new gun sooner or later.

I wish I would have kept my Hi Point 9mm carbine. That was one of the most accurate carbine's I ever shot and the thing was built like a tank. I don't see any way you could break it. Besides, it was just plain fun to shoot!
Yep, wish i woud've kept it now.

I'm kicking myself for selling my Highpoint. I used to shoot golf balls at 75 yards. ( any further and I couldn't see the ball ) The only thing I hated about my Highpoint was the take down. What a pain in the a$$ that process was.

It all depends on how you bought them.

I personally have only purchased via private sale, no paperwork filed.

But then that flood came and took them all away.

Bob I agree that the avg. distance is around the 20/25 ft range but I would like to get better over 25 ft. w my little Shield if possible. Now my Ruger .357 Security Six w/6" barrel I can range out a lot better :) Sucks to carry lol but great range gun
