I looked around and searched and didn't see a specific from or thread to new member intros. My apologies if this is in the wrong place
I've been a gun owner for about 10 years. Didn't grow up around them at all, but when crime started rising in my town, it was time to learn about self defense. Been a "gun nut" for many of those years since. I have been in law enforcement for about 2 1/2 years
I have owned (bought, sold, traded) over a dozen different guns over the years. Mostly handguns, and a few rifle. Built my first AR last year. Currently I have an XD 9, a Hellcat Pro, a Kimber Custom Two Tone LW in 45, and a Heritage Rough Rider for handguns. I also have the AR in 223/5.56, a Savage Axis (just got into hunting a few years ago and got a great price on it), and old Ieer Johnon semiauto .22LR, and a Mossberg 500.
I have owned a Springfield XD 9 4inch for a few years. No issues. I actually shoot it better than my Glocks I carry for duty, even though I have a lot more rounds through Glocks (can't we all just agree that Glock triggers suck?)
Just purchased the Hellcat Pro. Got it in the store with the gear up package so I didn't have to wait for it.
Haven't shot it yet as my gun club near me is closed for maintenance/repairs. As soon as they reopen I will get some round through it and then begin carrying it. This was actually an "accidental discovery." I was initially looking for a small carry gun to add to my carry rotation for the summer (t-shirt weather) and I would carry the XD on the days wear I wore more cover. I was looking at the 43X ( again, I hate Glocks, but the Blue Label price is hard to beat), the SCCY, and several others. Then I shot a friend's G48 and thought that could be a decent everyday carry with the Shield Arms everyday carry. But, again, I hate Glocks and then I would have to buy the SA Mag, a better front sight (or spend more to get the better sight initially), and find a fix for the trigger. Then a guy at the gun counter at Sprotsmans Warehouse (my second home LOL) showed my the Hellcat Pro. I immediately fell in love. Obsessed over it all week, and went back this past Friday and got it.
I already have an OWB holster for it from Bladetech, seems great for the price. I am now searching for an IWB holster (or 2) and also a red dot eventually. I will make separate posts about those in the appropriate forums.
Hoping to learn a lot about the Hellcat series, and hopefully become part of a good group of fellow gun nuts.
