I always thought the Bren Ten was a cool design.

You people be crazy. You want an auto 9mm at the current ammo prices?

I guess the guns must be cheap atm at least.

Some of us have been stocking up for years at cheap/regular ammo prices.

Yea, I guess so. There's also the reloaders. I've been eyeing a Dillon for quite some time now, just gotta pull the trigger (pun not intended)...

Some reloading components like primers are also hard to find if you didn't stock up too.

Yeah I got plenty of 9 and 5.56. The only ammo I've been buying recently is 300 blackout since I just recently finished mine. Most places are sold out and the prices are ridiculous. Good subsonic ammo is close to $2/rd. I only have about 100 rounds of that though. Supersonic rounds are around $1.20/rd, which is still about double what it was pre covid.

Nice little handgun for the little lady. -

What a romantic gift. -

However, I'm sure she will feel safer going into town now -

I thought so. Nothing says "I love you" like a 9mm.

And I told you, we mostly use cars now.

I'm going to convert my Glock 27 from .40 S&W to 9mm. Hopefully it will make it a better shooter. I think the Glock 27 is great in theory, but the .40 has way too much recoil for a sub-compact.

Oh, OK, I'll update my picture -

Well, if you can't handle it -

Years ago, I sold my first Astra 600 to fund a Ruger LCR for my wife. I deliberately ordered it with the pink hogue grip option so I wouldn’t be tempted to think of it as mine. It’s not my style anyway, but functionally, I think those little LCR are really fantastic. It’s a nice grip, and the trigger doesn’t seem to “stack”.
