re: What Personal Defense Weapon (think 9mm SMG) is everyone using?

I mean, you can get one for $1,500. It's not SP5 retarded in the price.
As I've stated, I'm still waiting on the Springfield Kuna with the Strike Force brace. There's a bunch of "SMG" 9mm's in the market all in the $800-1500 range and I've got my wallet and mind stuck on that one.

I do admit they look cool as shite, but insofar as quality defense weapon for pricing I'd much prefer the Beretta M9, 92-F, or 92-X Centurion models chambered in 9mm. Simple sidearms rather than a firearm that looks like something one of the coke dealers carried on Miami Vice but still performs in semi-auto only without increasing effectiveness of a 9mm round.
9mm handguns are fine personal defense weapon. Most people that have a PCC will use it as a secondary weapon. I have a Smith and Wesson M&P 2.0 as my bedside primary. My Zenith ZP5k-S is my secondary. If I have to go outside both coming with me. I can put plenty of lead down range accurately at 100 yds with the Zenith.

Stribog SP9A3...very accurate and reliable. Some have had issues with the mags hanging up, but I have never had a single issue.
As to people asking why anyone would want these kinds of firearms...two hands on the firearm and 9MM makes them practically zero recoil. You have the ability to fire as fast as you can pull the trigger with very little reset on the target. They are also easy to maneuver in hallways or doorways while being very close to firing position.

Anyone have one of these by Auto Ordnance (makers of the the original "Tommy Guns") and still made in the US
The WWII vets would roll over in their grave for not getting it in 45 ACP but I have my eyes on the 9mm version for under $1,000
Out of stock across the board

I have one similar to this. CMMG Banshee in 10MM, B&T suppressor, light, red dot.
Posted on 4/30/25 at 5:55 pm to MakersMark
What do you have for the red dot?
Posted on 4/30/25 at 7:06 pm to Bama and Beer
Man that Banshee is sweet, I’ve been looking at them as well because I have so many Glock mags to go with it.
Anybody have experience with Aero Precision EPC9? I dig the green upper and lower they have.

The main one I use is not being around a bunch of criminals involved in criminal activity....its worked for 59 years without incident and does for about 99.5% of Americans. There is a about a 1/2 of 1% (.5%) chance that the average American will be a victim of a violent crime in their life. The vast majority of those happen to unarmed people because the vast majority of people are unarmed. The vast majority of those victims survive that crime without long term consequences....had they used a gun to defend themselves the consequences could be far worse that the average. There is really no logical need to be armed at all times....there are irrational fears which drive people to be strapped at the Dairy Queen when they are craving a blizzard but its not a realistic need because there is no realistic threat to their well being, on average. Again, put your self or find yourself in dangerous situations and all that goes out the window but most people do neither of these things....

Better to have a firearm and not need one than need one and not have it.

Tommy gun would be bad arse to own!! I did come close to buy what I call a modern day version. It may have been a CMMG brand but was chambered in 45 ACP.

Is it really though? Multiple studies have indicated that having a firearm in your possession increases the odds of someone in your home becoming a victim of gun violence by as much as 200%. Most of these studies place the number around a 30% increased chance someone is going to get shot in a house where guns are present than they will in a house where there are no guns. Given the miniscule odds of being the victim of a violent crime in the US and surviving that encounter with fewer long term impacts than would be present had you used a gun to defend yourself it really is not better to have a gun and not need it.
