If you only had $500 to buy a new semi-auto pistol for home defense and range practice what would you get?

The $500 price figure is approximate. If you have a suggestion for a NEW semi-auto handgun that retails for a little more I would be interested in hearing that response.
I am particularly interested in 9mm handguns. Thanks!

I was an Olympic class pistol shooter and national champion. Back in Feb 2006 I walked into the local gunshop first thing on a Wed morning when the place was deserted with 4 revolvers and 4 rifles I had not touched in years. I wanted to trade for a new carry pistol ( hated the Baretta in 40 S&W I had been carrying) and some AR-15 uppers.

I was a military pistol shooter - most of that with a 1911 - and very used to the Baretta's. Not so familar with Glocks. I spent 2 hours handling all the Glocks, HK's and Smiths - but I kept coming back to this thing called a Springfield XD in 45auto. I didn't know anything about the XD, but, two of my match rifles are Springfield M1a's so I knew the brand was solid. This was the first XD in 45 auto to arrive in Alaska - they had just put it in the case the night before.

What I liked about the XD 45 auto over the rest - the cock n lock indicatior and the chambered round indicator - both could be easily felt in the dark. Knowing the state of your pistol is important in the dark. The balance was just as good as the Glocks - but this 4" Service Model was a perfect fit for me. This being a totally new pistol - I also balanced the fact that getting spare mags and holster accessories was going to be a long wait. But it was these two indicators and lack of a thumb safety to get in the way that sold me on it.

A few months later it won Pistol of the year - and the rest is history. I did a blind test of the XD before anyone did the hype. It is the perfect home defense and personal carry pistol. It doesn't shoot like my Gold Cup - but - I am not asking the XD to punch paper. I've had it 2 and a half years, operates flawless, and all the big brands make great leather for it. All the Glock owners I have let shoot this XD - most traded in their Glocks or started using the XD.

As far as caliber, the .45 ACP is still the largest of the commercial loads. It makes a bigger wound channel than the .40, or the 9 mm.

I like a quality 1911. A 1911 in .45 was the infantry side arm for our us forces for 60 years, and still serves elite forces.

I will say that a striker fired gun such as a Glock, or a Springfield Armory XD is an easy gun to master with little training, whereas a 1911 needs some work to keep it safe, or operate its single action trigger.

I whole heatedly will recommend a .45 caliber, but the model is up to your preference. Get a big 5 inch barrel for the max in velocity and sight radius.

Some makes to consider are Springfield Armory 1911s as well as XD, Glock, Sig Sauer, Ruger, and my favorite a Kimber SIS 1911.

Good Luck

Do they make a home audio receiver that auto adjust the volume?

So when i change channells if another channall has a louder volume the reciever will automatically adjust the volume level so you dont get blown away. if so whats brands offer it. and is there something that they call this feature or an acronym or something so i can identify the feature?

It would be impossible to maintain the fidelity available by today's technology and add "auto volume" which requires compressing the audio. A feature like this because of its inherent affect on fidelity would be limited to conditions where fidelity is not paramount.

Does anyone know anything about "Ameriprise Auto & Home Insurance" company?

I'm considering switching companies from Mercury to Ameriprise because of lower premiums, but I've read some not so good things about the company (like they take a loooong time to process a claim). I looked on Consumer Reports, because I feel they have reliable reviews, but I need a subscription, which I do not have.

So any information will be helpful, including a website that perhaps does reviews of auto insurance companies.

Thank you,
Pauley

I dunno about any website that does reviews but I have Ameriprise auto insurance and have had a couple of claims and they did a good job of handling them. Well, they did exactly what they are supposed to do anyways. I even wanted to have some bodywork done at a shop not in their network and didnt have any problems at all. I cant really say they are any better or worse than other insurance companies. The only company I've heard a lot of good reviews of is State Farm but theres a reason for that, you get what you pay for.

If you're an Insurance Agent (Auto, Home or Business) do you have to carry your own Errors and Omissions Ins.?

If you're an Insurance Agent (selling Auto Insurance, Business Insurance or Home Owners Insurance) do you have to carry your OWN 'Errors and Omissions' Insurance? Or is it provided by the Company you are working for?
(does your Employer carry the Insurance for you? or do you have to purchase the insurance and keep it up to date on your own?)

It will depend upon the contractual arrangement you have. If you are an independent contractor you will most certainly need to purchase your own E & O insurance. On the other hand if you are an employee of the company or agency they will normally include you as an insured under their policy.

Do not assume you have coverage. This is an important point to clarify.

There is no way you are going to get a valid response to this one if you are looking for a percentage of all policies sold. It is obvious that there is a lot of growth in this area since you see a lot more companies offering quotes and other services online. For people who have a basic understanding of insurance and their financial needs this is a great solution but they should understand that it will not necessarily save them any money. Sometimes the best bet is to still use a local agent.
