From on Steyr lover to another..welcome to the site Aught Six! I'm a several-times over Steyr M and S series owner (including a couple of M40's) like this one, below.
I carry an S40 myself when I want to carry something bigger than my Kahr 9mm's. I have been toting my M357 here and there too. If you can find one, pick up an S40....essentially a compact M40....but I noticed you are on Steyrclub.com, so you know that already. :biggrin2:
Thanks, srfl! Glad to hear from a friendly instead of those crazy Glock zealots. :wink: :biggrin2: That's a sharp looking M you have there. Was that a custom job?
I've been thinking about getting an S-40, but I keep leaning towards the Springfield. There's no doubt in my mind that Steyr M and S are higher quality pistols out of the box. The problem is that service for the Steyrs has been a problem since the start, with all the changes between importers. Also, the pistols themselves, along with accessories, have been much harder to locate consistently. I just wish Steyr would've done a better job with production and marketing.
Yeah, that's me on Steyr Club. I used to be a one forum kind of guy, but I'm taking a look at the better firearm/CCW forums around the 'Net. I'm still making my way through old posts, trying to catch up. :smile: I'll see you around!
