You do you. :-) I don't own one, yet, but I'm looking at the .40 Carbine.

My wife owns a Sub-2000 now, one of our sons owns one as well. My wife
also owns a P-32, had a P-3AT and gave it to one of our sons, and a P-11
I think it is (9mm) that she gave to our other son when she upgraded
to a Shield .40 for EDC.
I'm in the market for another 'fun' .22 and looking at the P-17 I think
it is (.22 LR, not the 'long top' 33 round one) and also looking at the
PCM-30 .22 magnum.

Same.

That sounds very cool!

Same here!!! Right now I'd love to run across somehting that needs a
little TLC that I could get for a song and spend some time doing my
'bedroom gunsmithing' on. :-)
