So I've been thinking about adding to my arsenal. I turned 21 in June and have wanted a handgun for quite some time. Not really for CCW (for now), just something fun to take out and shoot and maybe CCW down along the line. Ive been thinking Glock (good brand and good price) any suggestions?

Springfield XD-M

My brother has a Springfield TRP 1911 that's fun as hell to shoot. It's kinda big for carrying though.

I would love a 1911, but unfortunately I can justify the price for one right now

Springfield XDs are good. Don't bother with the XD-M it's not worth the extra cost. The tactical version with the five inch versus four inch spring will have less recoil

I love Glocks. Springfields feel clunky to me.

Im leaning a little more towards Glock for the price range. Been looking at the G23 or a G19.

Go to a store with a range. Put a couple of different brands/models in your hands and see which ones feel the best. Then rent those and put some rounds down range to be sure. I've done a decent amount of research on handguns. My next step is getting my hands on some.

Yeah I've done the same, not with Glocks though. Im making plans to go to the local gun shop this weekend. Probably not going to get anything for awhile, I need to pick up some shifts and work it off haha
