I'm about to purchase my first handgun soon. I can only

300 to 350 is poorfag territory. I'd be looking something like a Bulgarian Makarov or a Bersa Thunder. The only thing in 9mm I can think of for that price right now would be an M&P Shield, they're like 375 I think.

>>34981909
Can confirm on the Bulgie Mak, solidly built, stupidly simple and very durable. Probably not the 9mm that OP is looking for though.

>>34981802

forget s&w

look at ruger 9e

look at hipoints - still have $$ for ammo

totally avoid bersa & taurus & canik

>>34981802
Save some up some more money.

>>34981802
You might be able to find a police trade in Glock. If you can save another $50 you'll deff be able to find one. Or check out a used XD they're always cheap and they work.

good deals rightnow are posurp 92s or the m&p which is going for 300-350 right now making it pointless to get an sd series smith

m&ps cheap since they are being liquidated for the 2.0

>>34981802
You can pick up a police turn-in Beretta on ClassicFirearms for like $250-$300.

These are a bargain at about $270 NIB.

You could check Cdisales on GunBroker, that price range would snag you a CZ-75, Tanfoglio TA90, S&W 59, a Beretta 92FS or 84, even a Jericho 941.

Get a Tokarev

>>34981802
NEW
Smith and Wesson SD9VE
Canik TP9
SCCY
Hi-Point C9

USED
Ruger P-Series
S&W Model 59 or variant
2nd Generation Glock 17/19
Whatever AIM Surplus has for law enforcement trade-ins right now

My vote is for a good condition used M&P9

I've got a compeditive shooter friend that swears up and down that SAR stuff is right up there with the top brands in quality. Their prices seem too good to be true though.

In your price range: Kel-Tec, my friend, Kel-Tec all the way.

Definitely go with a Canik, people just shit on them here because they are made in Turkey.

>>34981909
Don't listen to these fags recommending pure shit. Buy a ruger lc9s. Striker version. New or used in your range

>>34982020
Why Canik? They're good shit.

Used Beretta 92S is a very respectable choice for a reliable HD gun OP. Great on the range, well tested for LEO and military use, and AESTHETIC

Not a 9mm but it works.

>>34986479
sure, and boipucci is just like real pussy

>>34986369
Most of the grief given to Canik is because it's a Turkish company and people don't want to fund them. Honestly, I don't like Turkey or its people, but they're good quality guns. Never will own one, yet they live up to a decent reputation. Entirely political problems I hear about Canik.

because we're poor and it will most likely be years before we're willing to spend $500 or $700 on a gun

like i said, if you managed to save $350 as a poorfag and youre willing to spend it whats stopping you from saving the extra $150-$200 to get a gun you want instead of settling for something
t. minimum wage faggot who saves forever to buy funs

>>34988099
What if he gets kilt in the interim?

>>34989583
Then one less poorfag.

>>34989592
Ah. But what if he was on the right side of history? Check and Mate.

Get a police trade in Beretta

>>34988099

If he wants to a pistol to protect himself, it's retarded to delay buying it. Besides since it's his first gun there is nothing wrong with going with something a little less ambitious to learn the ropes and get the job done.

>>34981802
Police trade Glock/M&P's, used Ruger P85/89/90 from your classifieds or pawnshop, S&w VE or whatever the Sigma is now. Check gunbroker 9mm, prepare to look through a lot of shit.

>>34981802
Recoil gun works, free state arms or cdi sales on GB, summit gun broker. All these should be good for your price range.

bro get a Berretta PX4 Storm, great first hand guns and my dad got it for me used for 300. not to mention its easy to field strip.

Get a .38 Special you should be able to find a used one in your price range.

>>34981802
I just bought a taurus pt709 slim for 219 and it's wonderful. I've put 125 rounds through it and it hasn't hiccupped once. Consider it in you dealings. Plus the warranty is fucking killer.

>>34989632
I've heard classic arms is a rip off.

sd9ve s&w
Saw one new for $200 the other day. Its a glock but not with the $300 mark up.
