In an odd position. But a good one.

Personaly I like Ruger.
The SR9 and SR40 are essentually the same,(9mm being the cheaper round)
however i carry the SR1911, love it even if it is a bit heavy.

my son and friends have just handed over holster and gun to match. (I have few but VERY good friends) To be fair Ive loaned these same folks my truck my motorcycles and about anything else Ive owned over the years so this is kinda payback. We just are that way with each other. Its been fun though.

To have good friends, you have to be a good friend. Sounds like you've figured that one out.

You are a wealthy man in my book, Ghost1958.

As others have stated, you can't go wrong with a Ruger.

Good luck, let us know what follows you home.
