Comment on S&W Airweight revolver vs Glock 23 vs Springfield XDm .40 4.5″ by Ferd

Thanks, Linda. I’m trying to learn as much as I can every time I go shooting, and I’ll post what I learn.

I’m itching to try the Ruger SR9C. It is a compact 9mm semiautomatic, the Gun of the Year in 2010. If it lives up to its reputation, that’s probably what I’ll get.

There’s also the Ruger SR40C, their .40 caliber compact model. The Ruger SR compacts are slimmer and lighter. They may not hold as many bullets, but they are easier to carry concealed.

For important purchases, I tend to pick the “Cadillac.” (Though I drive a Honda Civic!)

I can’t take any credit for the pictures. I “borrowed” them from the internet.

I like the way you describe the guns… a Cadillac vs. a Jeep? I’ve enjoyed learning more with each post and the pics are awesome! : )

Do you have a camera other than your point-and-shoot?

Our next project is to upgrade our DSLR. I bought it used on eBay a few years ago and it is definitely showing its age. I’m drooling for a Canon 60D. I think I’m going to sell one of my bikes in order to get it before our birding trip in late April.

Thanks, Linda, but REALLY, Gail gets all the credit for that. She has a “green thumb” when it comes to attracting birds!

The new lens will be a lot of fun. We were already looking forward to the Spring migration. Now even more so!

The world you two have created for your birds is just so beautiful. Between their home and your lens, I know we can expect great things! Thanks for the pics… : )
