Some time ago, B'rer Fretwell convinced me that my choice of a .357 MAG revolver was the *wrong* firearm for the night table, because if I ever had to use it, even if I hit the intruder, everyone else would be rendered deaf, the rounds are so loud. I thought about this for a while, and tested Fretwell's theory at the indoor and outdoor ranges I frequent. Without muffs.As much as I hate to admit it, Fretwell was right this one time.
So, I sold the revolver to a buddy for a good price and he also bought my Henry Big Boy .357 MAG rifle I just wasn't using. I used some of the proceeds to pick up a 9mm Walther PPQ M2 TAC, shown in the accompanying photo I swiped from a Walther site. With a suppressor fitted, it's not much louder than a .22LR that's been "suppressor-ized," and therefore usable inside without fear of rendering anyone deaf. It's the same suppressor I used on my 9mm CZ Scorpion Carbine.I'm going to fit a small "tactical" light to the rails on the underside of the lower.New pistol has a pretty nice trigger and appears to be accurate. I got the "Maryland" version, with three 10-round mags. Mine has the Vortex Venom red dot attached, looks pretty much like the red dot sight in Walther's photo.https://flic.kr/p/RieMq7
Wimp. You sold a great gun because it was too noisy to keep in
your nightstand? Wear earmffs to bed. If shouldn't be any more
bother than that CPAP thingy you strap on every night.
I'm not a gun collector, and how about that dildo you strap on to make
yourself think you are a man?
