Bartlett Newbie

[Peridog]

Hello all,

My name is Dennis and I live in Bartlett which is a suburb of Memphis. I joined this site so I could learn and be educated when I purchased my first pistol soon. I will be taking the safety class at the of March and will decide what gun is the best for me.

My friend took me to a range yesterday and let me use his Kahr .40, Ruger .380 and his Springfield XD. The SF was my favorite but it's too big to be considered for a concealment weapon and I liked the Ruger over the Kahr.

I have been reading about the Bersa PT-138 and the Taurus Millennium Pro 138 and I would like to test fire these guns before "settling" on a particular pistol as my main concealment pistol. I found out today that the firing local range will let people to test before buying so I will take advantage of that in the coming weeks.

I welcome any comments, suggestions or information on the above mentioned pistols. Like I said I new to the gun owners club since I have never owned a pistol and yesterday was my first experience shooting one.

Welcome. Sounds like you've been test driving at RangeUSA. Good for you. Don't be in a hurry to make that first gun purchase. You can learn a lot from forums like this pretty quickly. And there's some pretty good advice to be had at RangeUSA as well.

Welcome!!

Don't be afraid to ask questions... there are some really knowledgeable people here, though I can't claim to be among them. Keep your ears open, but don't let anybody prod you into buying a gun that doesn't work for you.
