<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I was a (very) young man, the choices in handguns were quite a bit more limited than they are today. After you made the decision of whether to go with a revolver or an automatic pistol, you more than likely ended up with a Smith & Wesson <\/a>or Colt revolver<\/a> in .38 Special or .357 Magnum or a Colt Model 1911 in .45 ACP<\/a> \u2014 many of which started out as military-issue guns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oh, sure, there were always other options, such as Lugers<\/a> and Walther P38s<\/a> brought home from Germany after World War II, early model Beretta auto-pistols and others, but the Smith and Colt options were the hands-down favorites for more than a few decades. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But things\neventually changed, and it wasn\u2019t long before the list of potential\nself-defense choices became much longer. And, as always, competition led to\ninnovation and improvements in manufacturing, yielding higher-quality guns at\nreasonable prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, your choices are almost limitless. From tiny, micro-compact guns to full-sized combat pistols and revolvers\u00a0from a much broader range of manufacturers, virtually every taste and every budget can be accommodated. Limited economic means no longer prevent individuals from possessing the protection they deserve. And don\u2019t forget cartridge; if you\u2019re on a budget, 9mm is much cheaper to practice with than almost any other cartridge, including .380.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Like with every\nother component of your EDC gear, the key is to honestly assess your needs. I\ndon\u2019t know anyone who absolutely, positively needs<\/em> a $4,000 custom\npistol or revolver. Sure, I have friends who own such guns and use them in\ncompetitive shooting, but none of them carry those for self-defense. And the few\npeople who do don\u2019t really need to, just as no one actually wears a Rolex to\ntell the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Entry-Level\nGuns<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Most\nmanufacturers today offer so many different models of handguns in such a wide\nrange of sizes and calibers that deciding can be difficult, even if you have\nsubstantial funds available. Some models are clearly intended as \u201centry level.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Such guns are often smaller in size but still available in defense-capable chamberings, such as 9mm, .40 S&W and .45 ACP. For example, the Smith & Wesson Shield<\/a> is priced within the means of most budgets, especially when on sale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Springfield Armory produces 1911-style pistols<\/a> \u2014 from base models to higher-end versions \u2014 and its XD line offers <\/a>a wide range of options. The polymer-frame XD auto-pistols come in striker-fired and traditional hammer-fired versions in a wide range of sizes, configurations and chamberings and with varying features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comparing features with prices will show that it\u2019s possible to get a good, reliable gun at a very reasonable cost. Granted, a lower-priced model may not have a built-in laser or night sights, but it will be a perfectly reliable self-defense tool. Even higher-end manufacturers such as SIG Sauer<\/a> and Heckler & Koch<\/a> have gotten into less-expensive models (although \u201cless expensive\u201d is a relative term).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, micro-compacts, including the Glock 42<\/a> and 43<\/a>, the Ruger LCP<\/a> and LC9<\/a>, and the Smith & Wesson Bodyguard 380<\/a>, are extremely well-suited to discreet carry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regardless of\nmodel, most major manufacturers have regular promotions \u2014 sale pricing and\/or\nrebates \u2014 that can be substantial and that are usually in coordination with\nretail sales outlets. Keeping an eye out for such specials is a great way to\nget the gun you want while staying within your budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t Turn\nYour Nose up at Used Guns<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I know, some of\nyou cringe at the thought of buying anything but a brand-new, still-boxed-up\ngun. But over the years, I have gotten some tremendous bargains on \u201cpre-owned\u201d\nguns, and I use that term because, in more than a few cases, it was impossible\nto tell if the guns had ever even been fired. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes a\ndealer sells a gun only to have the new owner go home, think about it and\nchange his or her mind. In some cases, the dealer may allow the purchaser to\ntake a full credit on a different gun. However, since it has been returned,\neven if never fired, the gun cannot be sold by the dealer as \u201cnew.\u201d It is now a\n\u201cused\u201d gun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have bought a number of guns this way: technically \u201cused\u201d but in such perfect condition it was impossible to tell if they\u2019d had a single round run through them. My most recent acquisition was a Springfield XD Mod 2<\/a>. For those of you not familiar, it is an update of the original XD with a new, more ergonomically designed grip frame and other features, including a fiber-optic front sight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Depending on\nwhere you live, the latest version would normally retail at somewhere around\n$450. But at a recent \u201cspecial sales event\u201d like I described above, the price\nwas $399, including two magazines and a soft-sided case. Pretty good deal,\nright?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But as I\nwandered around the store, I came to the used-guns section. And sitting in the\ncase was an XD Mod 2 9mm. Since it was the recently released \u201cdark gray\u201d\nversion, I knew it had to be relatively new. When I inspected it, I noticed\nthat there was absolutely no evidence of wear whatsoever \u2014 not even the\nslightest \u201cghost\u201d marking on the barrel that usually appears after 100 rounds\nare fired through it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And the price?\nA mere $325, with three factory mags and a deluxe hard case. Sale made! Now,\nafter having put more than 300 rounds through it (with not a single hiccup, by\nthe way), I am absolutely delighted with it. It\u2019s a solid, reliable, 16-shot\n9mm handgun from a major manufacturer, and I bought it at a great price. What\u2019s\nnot to like?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revolvers can\nalso be found with very little wear and tear. The reason is simple: At a\ntypical trip to the range, I may go through 400 or more rounds when shooting my\nsemi-auto pistols. But when I bring my revolvers, I shoot only a fraction of\nthat amount. I can pop off 15 rounds from an auto in seconds and then reload\nand repeat in just a few more seconds. But my revolvers hold far fewer rounds\nto begin with (five to seven in most cases) and take a bit longer to reload.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don\u2019t know enough to properly appraise a gun\u2019s condition (or even if you do), it pays to get to know a good, honest dealer who obviously really knows the business. The best are usually independent small-business owners and their employees (Editor’s note:<\/em><\/strong> Check out GunsAmerica’s network of local dealers in your area!<\/a> All local sales are free!<\/em>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Establish a\nfriendly relationship and keep them advised as to what you\u2019re on the lookout\nfor. They may give you a heads-up when a particularly pristine gun walks in the\ndoor. I\u2019ve gotten some really nice guns this way at very reasonable prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Police\nTrade-Ins<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Another great\nway to find \u201clow-mileage\u201d used guns is to look for law enforcement trade-ins.\nMost larger dealers carry them at specific times of the year when police and\nsheriff\u2019s departments replace their officers\u2019 firearms. Such guns often have a\nfair amount of holster wear but are mechanically almost new, and they tend to\nbe chambered in a cartridge ideally suited to self-defense \u2014 usually 9mm or .40\nS&W.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With some\nexceptions, the majority of working officers put very few rounds through their\nduty guns each year \u2014 often fewer than 100. Several of my law enforcement\nfriends regularly compete in tournaments and shoot for practice two or three\ntimes a month, but even then, many of them use competition guns and only really\nuse their duty guns while on the job or shooting their departmental qualification\ncourses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I found just such a gun last year: a full-sized Smith & Wesson M&P<\/a> in .40 S&W. It has just a touch of holster wear, but the barrel shows almost no ghosting, and it runs tight and solidly. Cost? $299.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The one thing I\ndid not like was that it had a department-mandated heavy trigger spring. But\nafter a quick call to Smith & Wesson, the company sent me a complete spring\nassembly in the standard pull weight at no charge. I now have a 15-shot,\n.40-caliber handgun in perfect condition for a price that just about anyone\ncould afford.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Worth the\nPrice<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The bottom line is that you really don\u2019t need to spend a boatload of money to get a solid, reliable defensive firearm. You just have to have an open mind and be willing to do the necessary legwork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
