Hello all;
I'm a new shooter, switching over to "Real Steel" from airsoft replicas (don't worry; I'm 37) where my HK armory consisted of an MP5A4 (all metal, decked out), an MP5K (that I could swith to an SP89), and the SOCOM w/suppressor. In my lifetime I've also shot a few rifles and a .357 Magnum once. I've decided to purchase a USP, either a .40 Compact or the .45 Tactical. Considerations:
- This may be the only handgun I ever buy
- I'm buying for several reasons, including a general interest in shooting, possible gun games, and home/self protection
- I don't foresee the need/desire to carry, concealed or otherwise (but you never know)
- I will be shooting primarily at an indoor range
- I'm not tall, but my hands are not small
- The $200+ price difference is not that important.
So... opinions re: best choice (.40C or .45T) considering my needs/experience (or lack thereof)?
TIA,
JW
