After considering the advice you guys gave me and the advice of others, I am working on purchasing a Glock 22. It will be my first handgun and I am looking into putting a lot of range time.

I think all ammunition manufacturers should be expanding their production. I don't know how it is where y'all are, but where I am if you want ammo you have to show up and buy it off the truck.

Thanks for the tips, I'll hopefully be buying one in the next couple of weeks.

I have heard that the Glock 22 Gen 4 is a very reliable weapon, but I hadn't really looked at the M&P before your comments. As far as I can tell, both are fairly similar. Personally, I have a preference for American-made weapons, but what do you guys think?

I'm not really worried about size and weight. I'm 6'3 260 so it's not an issue. That's one of the reasons I was looking at a 1911 as I personally like larger guns.

I was also looking at the Ruger SR .40, I believe it also comes in a sub-compact version with a clip extension. The only reason I am looking to OC is that I am 20 so I can't get a CC permit yet.

I am looking to buy a handgun to OC and I was wondering if y'all had any suggestions. I'm looking at a 1911, but I'm open to suggestions.
