In general if I can’t decide between two I just thunk on it for a couple pay checks and get both. That said I am at a point in my collection that buying both would cost me all of my discretionary funds for about 2 years. My last great debate was over a 30 carbine paratrooper and a Lee Enfield MK4 Sniper in the crate.
About two years ago I wanted a S&W airweight. So, I rented one, then rented a G43 to see which one I liked better. I ended up purchasing a Kahr CM9 the next day…
Recently, I was thinking of a G30, G23, or M&P40. I rented all of them (and a Sig 226 in 40), and ended up purchasing the M&P.
If you haven’t yet, rent them both and then decide. At the range I frequent, for the price of renting two guns, you can choose the option to try out as many of their rental guns as you want. If that’s the case, try a few other models/brands just to compare.
Currently battling it out for a new BBQ carry piece, complete with a new holster that is fancy too. I just can’t make my mind up between a Wilson 92 Centurion, Wilson EDC X9, a Commander 1911 (Wilson, Brown etc), one of the Kimber commanders. At least I have it down to the platforms…
Six months ago I started with 6 different platforms with the same holster style. This could take a while.
The gun range that I’m a member to has a great wall of rentals and both those guns I mention we’re on there and I rented them both at the same time. Both shot fantastic, both love everything about them but as somebody mention is to Minor Details.
On the Sig P320 I thoroughly like trigger better than to Smith and Wesson, but on the Smith & Wesson I like to grip a little bit better.
And a pricing on both of them are fantastic. So decisions decisions decisions
