21st birthday coming up :)

[clonies]

2 things that are currently on my to do list for my 21st celebration

1. Acquiring food. Possibly catered. I live in Sugar Land, which is right outside the city limits of Houston. Anyone have caterer recommendations? Good prices and even better food are what I'm looking for

2. I cannot decide for the life of me what type of handgun to buy as a celebration. The only restrictions I have really are: No Glocks, and it has to be around ~$700 or less. I was considering maybe a nice Smith and Wesson revolver that's no longer made maybe?

Happy early birthday! Buy a M&P45 and spring for a couple of aftermarket 14 rnd mags and a trigger job. Should be just inder $700, and even less if you get a used gun.

why no glocks but you can get a sig for your price also a middle grade 1911

My son turned 21 last June. He bought a S&W 686 from Academy. Just a suggestion.

Yeah that's way out of my price range but thanks. $1,277 and a 6'' 1911. Do not want!

And I don't think Swinging Door will work out. They require too many people. I don't have 100 people coming over to my house on a Saturday. More like 15-20+

I wish i was 21 again!!!!!!!!! just pick a good well made weapon of your choice that feels right in your hand they all go bang. if you have a place to go that has a range and weapons to rent try a few out before you buy and happy b-day when it gets here.

I know that Swinging Door has specific "catering" criteria but you can still just order 5-8lbs of meat and all the sides.

Congratulations!

Geeze, I have shoes that are older than you!

Get them drunk first and they won't care where the food comes from.

Have a great time.

Congratulations. Check out a Stoeger Cougar, around $400, great gun for the money.

I decided on a nice Smith and Wesson 686 Plus Revolver, 6 inch barrel, 7-shot cylinder. Shinnnnny
