Okay, I guess it's not up to date then. What I read said Heller himself tried to register a semi-auto pistol after the fact and found they were calling it a machine gun or something.

Right. That was in a follow-on case about whether the regulations forbidding magazine capacities larger than 10 rounds were Constitutional. (Court said they were. 2-1 ruling.) You can register semi-autos on the CA- or MD-allowable lists.

Red is a longer wavelength. Blue would make it shoot faster.

Red is better for cooking bacon.

Wow...some very cool stuff in that safe. Do you still have the PSL, is it a TGI or Century....how do you like it, mine is a Tenn gun version and I am pretty happy with it so far..... Your FAL is it a century, DSA, or kit?

Gots the GAS for a FAL. Might also pick up an AK of some kind...nothing fancy...if I could get a WASR that would run that would fit my bill just fine....but those are hitting the mid $400's now...should have bought one when they where going for under $300.

Question NoobPistola

...so...advice needed. I have a couple rifles but I've ben thinking of getting a smallish handgun for the home and that could be easily carried on bike trips. Checked out the Kel-Tec smallies, but truthfully I haven''t a clue about what's good and affordable.
Not a gun guy.
I'm thinking small enough to carry anywhere, dependable, and semi-auto that holds more than 6 rounds.


I like the look of this...

Why a preference for a semi-auto? With your experience level and other needs, a revolver might be a better choice...

Absolutely, get a nice snub or 3in (like the SP101) .357mag revolver, and practice with .38spl, until you get used to it then practice with a few cyls of .357mag you would carry in it. A revolver goes off every time regardless of training so it is by far the best non gun guy carry gun. UNLESS you are going to TRAIN A LOT never get an auto to carry. You'll get shot trying to make it work in a pinch.
