Another good thing about having visitors from the UK is that I can ask my friends if I can borrow their handguns to take to the range. After all, I have to have some choices for my visitors to try.

Confession. I’m not a fan of striker-fired guns, and I have no intention of owning any handgun that relies solely on a trigger-mounted safety. That’s just a personal decision I’ve made. So, Glocks and many other ‘modern’ handguns will not find a permanent home in my gun safe. I wrote a bit more about my thoughts on this here.
