I have a birthday next month and I'm going to get a new gun. I'm thinking of something around $500 that would be another good carry gun. I have plenty of big guns already. So I am going for something practical this time. I don't need anymore guns, I just want another toy. SUGGESTIONS?

There are some many guns in that price range that are excellent. Khars, Rugers, S&Ws, Glocks the list goes on and on. Do you have a caliber preference? What the largest gun you feel you could carry comfortably?

I have a holsters for most of the guns I have here in "My Arsenal." I even have a holster for the Desert Eagle. But I always go for the Glock 19 to carry. I like the G19 but in the summer it is harder to conceal. I tried to go look at a Ruger LC9 today but the shop I was at didn't have one. If I had more money I would be looking into one of the compact Kimber 1911s. But with my budget I think will be looking more into guns like LC9, or maybe G26/27. Has to be in a caliber I load 9mm, 357 mag, 10mm/.40, 41 mag, 44 mag, 45ACP, 50AE, .500 mag. So I think that will narrow it down to .9 or .40, unless someone makes a .45 smaller than the 9mm G19 I carry.

I carry a GLOCK 30 .45. It is smaller than my 19 , but a little thicker. It carries better than the 19 in the summer. Though a 26 or 27 is probably the best concealable firearm as far as reliability, capacity, size, huge aftermarket, and ease to operate/maintain. I'd go with one of those if you want 9mm or .40cal.
