CAN ONLY KEEP ONE

Due to no job, I might have to sell one of these. Smith+wesson mdl 910s, 2 fifteen rd mags about a year old. Sig-Sauer ex law gun factory refurbish. What gun would you keep?

There really isn't a right or wrong answer. Which gun do you shoot best? Which gun do you trust most? Which gun do you feel the most comfortable with? If you were in a lifr threatening situation and both guns were in front of you on the table loaded which one would you grab first? Answer the above questions and that's the one you keep. It is you who will be shooting the gun so you need to decide which one. They are both very quality guns. You won't go wrong either way.

I agree with Gary, there's no right or wrong answer. My advice would be to just put them on the table, close your eyes, mix 'em up, and just pick one.

But seriously, I'm truly sorry about the no-job factor, and I can only hope it doesn't last long for you. My best wishes to you and yours.

Mark

Try to find a friend you trust with a bit more stable situation and "sell" him the one you love the least with the understanding that when the ship rights itself, you can buy the gun back. I'm sorry for your situation, I recently had to sell one of my babies as well. Keep your head up!

Gary pretty well said it all on choice and you received a lot of good advice from others also. Sorry about your job loss and hope you find something soon and are able to recover the one you have to sell or pawn.

Maybe sell both and buy a 1911? I like that idea too.

Keep the one you like the best, personally I would sell both and buy a S&W revolver.
