The number one upgrade for your pistol is more ammo to send down range… and a new hat… because I like hats.

[@thefrogking481]

Never underestimate a good hat.

[@gjmarkjesse1324]

Always love a fresh crisp Cabela’s hat. Plus they don’t stain when I sweat like crazy.

[@johnbarker2650]

This is the truth

[@bobyjones3905]

I must have close to 150 hats

Fitness and training > gear/guns/accessories. Get yourself: • A gym membership (good) • build a home gym (better) • A rucksack/backpack. • 50/100/150# sandbags • weighted jump rope • new running/hicking shoes Get yourself into no BS full body fitness. Exercise, so you won't continue to have bad "fill in the blank" ailments. Inactivity makes you weak and frail, not old age. Excuses and poor fitness get more people deleted than choosing the wrong LVPO for your long gun that you still haven't zeroed and verified at distance.

Speed loaders for magazines are also a nice bonus to have when loading your magazines (especially pistol). They're extremely useful for those who don't have the best hand strength as well as those who don't enjoy cutting themselves once every other range trip trying to load your magazines to their maximum capacity. It's a huge pain saver since my Beretta 92 magazines are made of metal rather than polymer.

[@DrewDayToday]

@@dillonc7955 yessss totally missed this one! Those Steele magazines are a pain. Thanks for this!

[@themightycrixus1131]

The best thing about a speed loader is you don't have to waste precious time hand loading at the range. That way you get more reps in.

[@DrewDayToday]

@@themightycrixus1131 yes I normally preload mags at home so I’m always forgetting the speed loader at home

[@themightycrixus1131]

[@steamman9193]

-Med kit great idea -Magazines absolutely necessary -Electronic ear muffs are definitely worth it. - every long gun needs a sling and you should learn how to use the sling as an additional stabilizing point. - tools are handy make sure you have Allen wrenches and locktite that fit your sights/scopes - adding a pocket knife to your list - target stuff is important weather it’s a post hole digger, or duct tape or a can of spray paint. Milk jugs and soda bottles are great targets I prefer those types of targets that don’t make shooters focus on bullseys that don’t exist in real life

[@jamesp739]

Unless you're some sort of ninja, I've never understood the logic of black medical kits/pouches/bags. If it's orange or bright red, it's easy to spot or find when it's in the bottom of your range bag, or when the light is less than iteal. It's also easy to describe to others when you're in a hurry, just tell 'em to grab the orange/red bag.

[@wwtf7180]

More ammo. AKA freedom seeds.

Cleaning rod. If you ever have a stuck case or squib you will need it. Broken shell extractor. If you have an AR keep a parts kit and an armorers wrench. These and more are in my tool box that goes to the range with me.

[@Try2K3tchup]

I’ve also heard a paint can opener attached to your kit or belt for stuck casings

[@kfsrmn]

@@Try2K3tchup Yes, I have one in my box but they don't work on broken shells.

[@Lee-fi4vo]

[@rm70x7]

Sight tool: $30 is fine if you only run Glocks. You can take out the rear sights with just a gunsmith mallet. If you buy a Springfield, CZ, or Smith & Wesson, you're gonna need the $400 version.... I broke a $50 sight tool, $150 sight tool, and the $400 one is looking promising so far. But then again, I do tons of them for cerakoting...

[@TheSubwizzle]

Minimum 100 rounds for EDC? I don’t see how anyone could/would carry more than 2 (possibly 3) mags for basic self-defense type scenarios. Not that I believe it should be an enforced restriction; I’m just thinking out of practicality.

[@TommyRibs]

@@TheSubwizzle You have an emergency situation like a natural disaster, you are going to want to load up your mags with carry ammo.

[@TheSubwizzle]

@@TommyRibs Makes more sense in that context, yeah.

[@captainahab8444]

For emergencies, shtf, its cheaper to stock up on range ammo. It will still stop a threat and for the same price you can buy 3x as much ammo

@@captainahab8444 in an emergency where your life or the lives of others can be on the line you are advocating for cheaper over best fit? 100 rounds of carry ammo is not a bridge too far. Not even close.

[@gunslinger001yahoo]

A Platypus would be a great first buy

[@donducaleti]

First gun ever? I would pick up a P365 Variant with a Manual Safety. Glock 17/19X/19 MOS would also be a great choice but would not have a safety. MOS if Glock as it would allow you to expand into an optic later down the road if you wanted. Either choice is extremely popular, has strong aftermarket support, and is reliable.

I'd firstly go to a rental range and try out a handful of what they've got or take a pistol class if youre fresh off the boat into the world of firearms. Every gun has pros and cons that you can find and adjust for quicker in person than over the internet.

@@DrewDayToday Have not had an opportunity to shoot one yet, but I have had experience with the 545 and 502 and both are great. I prefer the Tactical variants because of the threads. FN makes great products, but prices accordingly.

fellas, we don't need the latest "hotness" in pistol offerings. There is no need to buy the latest offerings if you've already got a proven platform. Pistol or Rifle..... Jerry Micukek will out shoot 99% of us with a 60 year old "outdated" Smith revolver, easily. Practice! Burn the ammo, put in the hours. Beware the man with only one gun, for he surely knows how to use it. Each of us MUST have a practical trauma kit at arms reach at all times. Learn the MARCH algorithm. You can't beat the Refuge kits, but yeah, they're pricy; but if you use any piece in a life-saving effort Refuge will replace it without cost to us. Can't beat that.

In other words, be smart and invest a little bit of money in yourself and what guns you do have before you become an official gun hoarder. I hope that clears things up for you.
