    Firearms... Carry? Sport? Collect? Protection?

    Anyone own firearms? I have several pieces. My go to's have been .380, 20ga, 30-30, and .22LR. I do have a couple .25's and .410's, as well as a .222, but they are just incidental purchases or acquisitions. I shoot skeet and trap as well as target shooting. I have been mulling over a new purchase, and this will be the subject of my first post.

    My carry weapon is a .380 ACP. I also have another .380 I use for home protection. After September 11, 2001, I went out to get some guns. I had grown up with guns and hunted and sported, but I moved to a more suburban setting and hadn't bought any. The Bersa Thunder .380 was suggested by the shop salesman and worked well and worked for me. It has been a great pistol and very reliable. I kept to .380 to keep the supply of ammo I had to purchase to a minimum. I will also say, when the ammo scare removed most of the ammo from the shelves, .380 was still on the shelf.

    I am now looking for a 40 cal or a .357 mag. The round is a bit more powerful and the 40 cal is a cheaper round to buy than .380, and 40 cal was still on the shelf when other rounds were cleaned out. I think in the near future I am going to do a comparison of the .357 and .40.



    Anyone have experience with either.

    Anyone like to shoot?
