9mm vs. .40S&W, and a response

[twyacht]

9 X 19 is a POS.
9X18 is the way to go .   

The ol' Makarov's are available for less than $200....

Good call....just stock up on ammo while it's cheap(er).....Just like the Tokarev's.....ask Haz or deepwater,...the damn Tok's are a uber ugly, uber reliable cheap pistol designed to work in any condition.

Sadly many Mak's were destryoed by the Euro "anti-gun" hysteria, but they made so many, they are still available....

J&G has them at a bargain....C&R eligible

They will be flooding the market now, along with upgrading the AK the Russians plan on replacing the Mak.
I think they should just go with the CZ 82/83, people trained on the Mak will be comfortable with it, and it holds twice as many rounds.

And J&G will sell them cheap in that kind of volume

Slight thread drift....
This is clear as mud. Not knowing the ins and outs of the C&R license, (is it an 01 license?) can someone in CA buy this or not.
The 82 isn't on their "approved" list so do our CA detainees hostages brothers get to own one or not?

From Tom's link:
(This gun is C&R eligible and can ship to 01 FFL holders in CA, but you must buy the California package at $10.00 more with a 9rd mag. We do not ship handguns to C&R holders in CA.)
ATTENTION: Firearms ONLY ship to an FFL holder. If you do not have an FFL (Federal Firearms License) then you must find one in your area to do the transfer for you, and you must enter their address as the shipping address on your order. Due to FedEx and UPS requirements, handguns ship separately from ammunition via 2 day delivery.
ATTENTION: California residents please check the California Roster of Handguns Certified for Sale to see if this gun is legal to purchase.

Forget it, C&R, FFL, whatever.....I defer to above post...

But aren't you in "normal" AZ kmitch?

Yes, thank God. When I want to see the only 3 people I give a hoot about in CA, I always offer to meet halfway in Yuma or Bullhead City.
Bastidges never take me up on it though.

What puzzled me was this line from J&G:

It probably has a blocked Mag well that only accepts single stack mags.
Might as well get a Makarov, basically the same gun but slimmer since it is designed as a single stack.
