I'm just curious, how did you edit the thread title after almost 24 hours?
Being new she didn't know you couldn't so she did it anyway.
That's my carry gun for reference I'm 5'4 and 140 poundsokay i really did give this a lot of thought....decided a 9mm will be just fine for EDC and i will continue my search for a 45 acp to just have fun with at the range...
i went to academy this morning to check the ammo delivery (as usual, only really had .40 s&w in stock and a lot of it)...saw they replenished their gun supply.
i looked at:
kimber ultra carry CDP II .45 acp - really liked this one, felt nice and weighty, felt good in my hand....the girl behind the counter said she uses it as her EDC and loves it but agreed when i asked about the “finickiness” i have read about when researching this particular model....maybe a future purchase?
sig p365 was the one i was most excited about seeing...liked the higher capacity magazine and still a great grip size for me despite the double stack mag....however, i hated the way it felt in my hand, felt really hard and uncomfortable...truthfully was disappointed i did not love it
walther PPS M2 9mm was a WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER! loved everything about it...figured if it shoots half as well as my PPQ, i am going to absolutely love it!
thank you everyone for your input, ideas, links, etc....like i said, i am still going to get a .45 acp in the future, but have a strong feeling this is going to be the perfect EDC for me
i already cleaned and lubed her up lol ... with the 10% healthcare workers discount got it at pretty much the same price as online...under $400 including tax....oh, and the background check took literally a minute to be approved so i was in and out fast!
without further ado, pics!

we have great taste!!!That's my carry gun for reference I'm 5'4 and 140 pounds
i think @Army 1911 is correct ... i did not know it was not supposed to work so it did
i just went to the first post of the thread and the edit button was still there...i was surprised i could still edit but was glad i could!
Congrats to the OP.
Enjoy the 9 for now.
Once you get the 1911 .45, you will probably never pick up the 9 again.
Im beginning to think this is not hillbilly and is an actual person

Or hoping it's not?
Hell I believe your real & I'm a pessimist! I wouldn't mind meeting you to shoot & let you check out guns, but I know I'm a dirty old man & I'd be flirting with you. And deep in my heart I don't need to be pissing the wife off, as she's my only sammich maker.dang, this hillbilly person must have been quite a gem i can assure you i have never had an account on this site besides this one and if anyone ever wants to meet me at texas gun club for some shooting, i will prove i am my avatar...and we have to shoot!

He was before me as well, but I have heard some stories about him that would curl you eyelashes!

well i am not into health food, i am into champagneHe also likes piña coladas and getting caught in the rain.
i totally get it, you have to keep a keeper .... we all have our priorities in life....there was this time i was trying to hang this heavy-a$$ mirror in the half bath...solid wood, huge and weighed a ton...i was sweating and swearing and ticked my fiancé did not ask if i needed help....i look in the kitchen and lo and behold, he was making scones and muffins for me to take to my co-workers the next day...he is the cook, i am the repairwoman, fixer of things, etc....those are the roles we play in my household! he says he is glad i am there to protect him and the dogs
every forum has them and from my experience they keep coming back under different user names so i get the apprehension...eventually i will meet some of you in person (October G2G!) and all that will be laid to rest
