With the crime situation the way it is, now's the worst time to have a total gun ban. Pity the next kidnap or carnap victim who would have at least a fighting chance if he/she were armed and knew how to use it. Shame on those politicians who have to resort to nefarious activities to finance their ambitions.  |

....and the death penalty is still on hold.
there will be checkpoints. the private vehicles will be harassed again. but crime aboard public utility vehicles are still unchecked (hold-ups and snatchings in mega-taxis, jeepneys, buses). the malls and banks security will search our personal belongings when entering these establishments. but banks and other establisments continue to be scenes of hold-ups and crimes.
and to top it all.... law abiding citizens are prohibited to defend themselves.... there is a gun ban! |

So the P900 is officially out, have to wait for the price to go down. Its as expensive as a new Glock(without papers of course).
Checkpoints?- Waste of time and money. Implement the Death Penalty and bring back PTC's so we can shoot back!

Pinoy! from SoCal welcome to this thread. If I remember correctly you're coming here next month.(a few months before the total gun ban on Feb.) Hope you've found and bought the USP expert that you were looking for. There's a .45 USP expert available at Nashe, priced at 120K  |

Darn, so the gun ban really starts on Dec. 15. The Bong Revilla Cup in PNPA Silang, Cavite on Dec. 5-7 will be the last major PPSA match before it. Time to make the most out of it. |

The choice of firearm usually depends on your intended purpose for owning one. Concealed Carry? Home Defense? IPSC/IDPA Competition? . Pistol or Revolver? Caliber? Are you new to firearms? Also quality and Price are usually(though not always) directly proportional. Personally I like the big bore cartridges(esp .45 ACP) and I'm currently partial to HK's and Glocks. I used to like 1911 type pistols but I dislike having to engage the services of a gunsmith to fine tune them. HK's, Glock and the Sig-Sauers are good to go out of the box and you can't go wrong with them. |

....and first of all.... basic training and safety.
also... the right attitude on being a responsible owner. there has been far too many shootings involving a very simple road traffic altercation, neighborhood misunderstanding, petty quarrels, home accidents due to carelessness, arrogance, suicides using guns, etc. (not to mention it being ubiquitous on many crime scenes) all contribute to create a bad image for the supposed to be honorable object called gun.
BTW
a friend selling Taurus PT111 (9mm) two-tone. anyone interested? details... you may PM me. |
