Green Mountain Tactical is having a pretty good sale right now. I just came into 387.00, I would like to keep enough cash for a couple boxes of ammo and possibly a holster for CCW if the pistol won't fit any of my holsters.

Any experience with these?
I also have no revolvers in my lineup

Or
http://www.greenmountaintactical.com/Tauru...u-44trkr-4b.htm
Which I like, but will push my budget after shipping and transfer.

I kno they are mostly Taurus and wouldn't be my first pick as a manufacturer, but this money is basically free to me.What would you buy?

If I had to go with the one of the above. It would be the tracker.

I was thinking Tracker initially, but I think everyone really needs a snubbie .38, if just to stick in you coat pocket if you are going outside.

If I were going to get one of those three, it would be the .45 semi-auto. But that's just me.

I have the LCP for pocket runs to the quickee mart. I used to own a Ruger SP101, which I was not at all impressed with, I couldn't hit squat with that pistol, we just didn't get along. I like the Millenium due to the 10+1 .45 ACP and small size, but I do have the CCW area covered, so I am thinking the revolvers may be the only 2 choices. The Tracker would be nice for big bore, but the snubbie has a certain cool factor. I hate decisions................... sad.gif

Well, at least pick one of the revolvers. You don't have one.

That was my initial choice, the price of that and the snubbie .38 are very close, .45 ammo is cheaper and more plentiful. Either way 310.00 shipped and 330.00 after transfer is cheap enough for a pickup glove box. I have 1/2 the setup for my Dillon for .45 and .38, only needing dies and components. ARGH!!!

Even if I have no real practical use for one? unsure.gif

Of course! Actually, a revolver is fool proof and can always be loaded. It won't jam, if there is a misfire you can just pull the trigger again, and for taking someone shoothing that has never fired a gun, they are great.

For me it would be a toss up between the two revolvers. If the 44 was a 357 I'd get that one for sure.

He has a Walther P22 in your price range too. Cheaper, and something better than Taurus.
