My wife told me to go buy the Kimber I want but I'm thinking i might want a Ruger LCP for ease of carry. I think I know the answer to this one but looking for opinions.
I want 'em both. Should I just save my quarters and buy the Ruger later? Decisions decisions............

How much were you planning on spending on the Kimber? You might could get a decent quality, no frills government model and an LCP for what you were planning on paying for the Kimber. I picked up a new Colt 1991A1 with the new style roll marks in blued for $700 about 6 months a go. I can live without a lot of the "upgrades" on government models these days. Plus, you can always have them done later.

Thanks USA1, that's a good laugh, cracked me up.
I'm looking at $1000.00. Plus mags, ammo holster etc etc
I knew that was a dumb question but I had to ask.

Man, if my wife said "honey, go ahead and get that Kimber you wanted" I would feel really bad for anyone I ran over getting to the closest gun store!
What are you waiting for?

Allow me to clarify my reasoning...
Get the Kimber now while your wife is in a good mood (if she's like my wife, that could change quickly

) then, later on down the road, purchasing the LCP will not only seem very practical but also inexpensive by comparison.
Again...IMO

I would have been gone before she finished talking. I would have apologised for slamming the front door when I got back home. Kimber now LCP later.

Or you could buy the LCP and a Glock and have a few hundred left over for ammo for both

Happy b-Day AR. I already have 2 Glocks but the Kimber is just too beautiful to pass up.
After handling a few 1911's i have totally fallen in love with them-hittin' the store tomorrow morning.
