A few weeks ago, I worked on a family member's FEG PA 63 and I could not find 9mm Makarov ammo for it anywhere locally. In the 3 years I've been picking up brass at the local ranges to reload, I've only picked up 10 9x18 (Makarov) empty cases... I was not impressed with the quality of the FEG PA 63 and this one would not reliably eject steel-cased ammo, which I don't recommend anyway due to the strain it places on the ejector...

I was a nice Sig P239 in 9mm, like the one I carry for $425 at a local gun shop a few months ago and that's a pretty good deal since the gun sells for about $800 new. If I'm going to carry the gun, I really don't want to carry a brand-new gun, I'd rather carry one that already has a few scratches, holster wear, etc...

My wife has put over 1100 rounds through her Ruger LCP in .380, but that little gun is easy to carry but it's not a lot of fun to shoot.

You really have to clearly determine exactly what you want out of a gun and that will narrow down your choices, after that, it's personal preference.

I don't care for Kahr, but that's only because the Moonies (Unification Church) own the company, as well as Auto Ordnance, but that's just me, many folks will not care at all.
