        A friend of mine has one of those. Says it's a great gun. Looks pretty awesome too. How much does 9mm cost, generally?

          $12 for a box of 50, plus or minus a buck. It's probably the cheapest of handgun ammo...except .22LR, of course.

          • I put the listed price on that one, $500. Glock 19 is about $530. Smith & Wesson M&P Shield is $400. It's more compact. Those are the 3 I had 9 mm narrowed down to.


            I had one of those Ruger .22 caliber bull barrel, but I sold it. They're nice.

              • Wait, was he asking how much a 9mm pistol costs? I thought he meant ammo.

                Because it varies quite a bit, just like with AKs, AR-15s, M1911s, etc

                    • Now that you ask, it was a kind of an ambiguous question; although the firearm itself varies greatly in price.

                      As far as the round, it depends on what's firing it. 115 - 125 grain, although some will advocate to 147 grain.

                      • Checking on cheaperthandirt, it looks like 9mm runs from about 20 cents (bulk, Russian made crap) to 2 dollars (ridiculously over priced novelty ammo) a round, with the most popular being about 25-30 cents. Figure on spending 15-20 bucks for a box of 50.

                        • Prices are a bit artificially high at the moment due to OBAMA GONNA TAKE ER GERNS though.

                          • Ruger Mk III? What about this? Also a Ruger. http://ruger.com/products/sr22Pistol/models.html



                            I wonder why you can't find .22LR pistols with better than 10 round magazines.

                            • 22 lr ammunition is rimmed, so it doesn't do well with double stacking. That, and the rimmed cartridges stack in a curve, which makes long magazines either awkward or unreliable. I'll take a picture later of my Mosquito's magazines, and you'll see what I mean.

                                If this is your first Handgun, get a Ruger Mk 3 so you can get the basics. Use the money saved to buy more ammo and range time.
