same here.I dont have a reason as to why I traded mine.It was one of my most accurate guns.I gotta say as far as concealment goes,your better off trying to hide a brick.
Good gun though...

I am new to the gun buying/gun owning thing but I have done some research through my local gun shop and yesterday I put out money on one of these. Is my money being well spent or should I have looked for anything else? I had a limited budget and I wanted a gun that was user friendly to a novice shooter. Thought?

Hello Stopher. Welcome to the forum. I think the P95 is a good beginner's handgun, especially for the price. Usually $350 or less for the all black (blued?) model like mine. My wife and I both enjoy shooting mine. They are very reliable and very well built.

 

[stopher912007]

Yea it is very affordable and the guys at the gun shop I am buying it from have done nothing but speak highly of it. I am paying 369 before tax. I am a huge fan of the 1911 series ruger but that was a little rich for my blood at the moment. Lol. As long as my fiancé doesn't kill me for wanting another handgun, ill be picking that up in a ear or two. Baby steps lol. Thanks for the welcome btw.

I agree with what Jim said stopher. The p series have been around for a long time.Actually,they were issued to several tanks units in the Army I believe. They are a tank of a gun themselves,but i couldntve asked for a better first gun. Ive since sold my p95 to my good buddy and he loves it as well. I can honestly say,not once had I nor my buddy,have ever had any issues with it. Accurate,sturdy,easy to field strip are some of the things that come to mind. Congrats on a great first gun,and welcome!

Thank you. I have been reading a lot about this handgun and I am nothing but pleased. I just cannot wait until I can put rounds through it.

Money well spent. Here are my two. 2010, and 2011.

Wow.... Mine looks like crap compared to all of those lol. Bluing is coming off, scratches, etc etc. But, I carry mine everyday, so it gets a lot of holster time, and a lot of in and out from drawing/practicing.

However, and I will never be able to speak highly enough of this, it still shoots like a dream. I love it.

My p95 shoots like a dream as well. Very happy with it (2013 edition)

Mines not in the best shape either but still shoots great. I know I can always rely on it if needed.

Awesome bang for the buck gun. Loved mine. Traded for the 9E which, for me, is easier to carry.
