Advice on buying some Pistols

Quote from Ghost of Cutten:

Hehe, nice collection. Anyway, funny timing but the London riots showed that you can never be too prepared. If even just one citizen on each street had come out with a long gun and aimed it at anyone trying to destroy or loot property, or attack people, the riots would have been over in a few hours.

What makes you think the rioters wouldn't also have had guns in your fairy-tale scenario?

Basic knowledge of London and the UK? Doh. Even if one of the rioters had a gun, it would almost certainly be some shitty handgun and he'd have little or no training in how to use it. You really think someone with a handgun is going to take on a guy with a rifle or shotgun and body armour, just to burn a house or car?

Your basic knowledge of London and the UK is obviously zero then.

yadda yadda. Show me some cases of UK rioters toting long guns and shooting people with rifle rounds.
 
I'm going to a gun show next weekend, and I will likely come home a couple pistols. A revolver for my wife and a 1911 for myself. I will evaluate shot guns at that time as well.

I haven't been to a gun show in years. You'll certainly have plenty to see and hold to try on for size. I've heard that prices tend to be marked up at shows though in contrast to years past. (not that you can't afford it) Not so much for home defense but for concealed carry I'm getting a Colt New Agent, which is a 1911 with a 3" barrel, any day now.

Lucrum, I think you would be happier with this: http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl...&hl=en&biw=1419&bih=696&gbv=2&tbm=isch&itbs=1

You can find one cheaper if you shop around. Kimber is amazing:)

Actually a 3" Kimber was originally my first choice. After some more research I settled on the Colt. I may add Crimson laser grips to it later depending on how well I adapt to the trench sight on the Colt.
