Have you found any downsides to the Creed? Misfires, trigger snags, empty jams? Anything?Quote:

Thanks.
The Ruger Security 9 is a compact size 9 mm that has a low $300 price tag, sometimes upper $200 prices. The S&W SD9VE, which has a lot of the Glock 19 in it, runs around $289-$299. The Taurus G3, which is a really nice striker fire polymer compact runs $250, or less when on sale.Quote:

Like the Walther Creed these all get good reviews.
Dan, here is Hickock45’s video review of the Walther Creed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3cslHRLOEc8
Thanks Keith. I will watch the Hickock vid later today. A deal breaker for me is any gun with a barrel length less than 4 inches. Seems like most of the compact 9mm are 3 to 3 1/4 inches
Really like his ball cap there! 👍
And oh yeah, nice gun review too! 😂
The shorter barrels are sub compact. The compact barrel sizes run around 4 inches, and magazines are typically 15 rounds. Typically the Glock 19 is the comparative model used most often for these.Quote:

The 15 round magazines give you three fingers on the grip, vs two for the subcompact. The 4 inch barrel makes it easier to aim accurately.
Here is a list of some of the 4 inch barrels, 15 round mags that I have researched:
CZ P10C
Taurus G3
Walther Creed
Walther PPQ
Glock 19
S&W M&P 9 2.0 Compact (there are two versions the 11683 has the four inch barrel with no slide safety)
S&W SD9VE
Ruger Security 9
Ruger SR9
Springfield XD
Beretta APX
Sig P320 Compact has a 15 round capacity, barrel length is 3.9. Some have barrel lengths of 3.6” and others are full size.
Walther Creed has a 16 round capacity, FWIW. It didn't hurt my feelings when I was looking that it had a 16+1 capacity.Quote:

Hickok had no problems with it, that's for sure lol. I've had no problems with it, as reliable as my Glock (so far) and my S&W 39-2, which I really like as well.
I got a steal for it at $249.99, no tax, from CDNN. Shipped to Hoover Tactical with an indoor shooting range to try it out, they charge $20 for a FFL transfer.
I think CDNN has it now for $269.99, with three magazines (two spares). I know you're like me, though, and like to try it out before buying, but that's a possible option, depending on price.
Thank you. There is no mention of any recent progress on their home page.

I’ve seen some indications that the Creed has been discontinued. If so what is currently in the pipeline will be all there will be.Quote:

The Dagger looks like a Glock with an M&P style trigger, which is not a bad combo.Quote:

Anyone have any opinions on a 6.5 creedmoor in a bolt action? Wanting one to reach out longer ranges when needed.

Wish I had an opinion but I have never even touched one much less fired one.
Priced anywhere from $450.00 up to $3,500.00. That is a heck of a spread
Under $800 ideally

Plenty to look at here. Mossbergs quality weapon on the lower end of the price spectrum

The Savage 110 and 111 models are great shooter and within your price range.Quote:

I had a local shop order the Savage for me, so I could get it the way I wanted it. The only thing I would do different if I had it to do over would be to order it in .308, because it shoots flatter than the .30-06 round.
BTW, the Savage Axis II also has the AccuTrigger and is generally a sub $500 rifle that has a fantastic reputation for accuracy out of the box.
Somewhat OT
The bad thing about having a scope that records is that you see how bad you miss...But yes, I have an excuse. I rushed my shot knowing a calf was close and walking that way.
A big favorite here in Montana, sir. People are liking those short magnums here too. Were I to get a new antelope/deer/elk rifle it would be the Creedmore. I’ve shot 30.06, .308, 7mm magnum(ouch),.280,.270, .257. 25.06. Creedmore is an easy shooting round with good bullet ballistics.Quote:

Gotta say, Without recommending it, I used a .264 WinMag and it was a virtual RayGun. Something about that bullet coefficient with a lot of powder behind it.
My coronabux are going towards a
Marlin 1894CSBL 357. Home defense and matching caliber to my little carry revolver. And I can reload those .38 and .357 rounds any way I want.
PSA dagger update tonight at 9 eastern

I do not have a facebook account and have not been able to sign up for one tonight. If you sit in on the web meeting, I would appreciate you sharing any details you remember with us.
Thanks

For you revolver lovers, her is a unique weapon. Tarus has a 357/38 special/9mm luger out for sale. 1 ported barrel fits all, and you swap out the cylinder to accommodate the 9mm rounds.
It has a niche and it might fit yours, especially if you have a dirty harry fetish.
