    Newbie From Rochester NY

    Can't beleive I am now a Colt owner! (52 and can finally make that claim!) My Christmas gift for my wife was to take her to our local shop to look at some carry guns that she could handle. She fell in love with the Sig p238 (it is really nice..). As we were wrapping up the details, I had expressed an interest in maybe something for myself. After the Kimber Carry Pro II, Mark behind the counter put a Colt Defender 3" in my hands..nuff said! They came home to a happy home. We shot them this afternoon, both are very sweet shooting guns. Happy New Year Y'all!

    Welcome. You will love that Defender as much As I love my Lightweight Officer's ACP. Sig Is comming out with a 9mm version of the P238 format. That may be very interesting. I'm from East Rochester, neighbor.

    Hello, Tgar! Welcome aboard! I'm a new guy, too, just having joined last year. Late December, to be more precise. Proud, long-time owner of a Colt Officers Lightweight .45 ACP. Just wish I'd found Colt Forum years ago. You will absolutely thrill to all the news, advice, suggestions, recommendations and camaraderie in the Forum. Vibrant, dynamic and passionate debates also. Lots to learn & share. A Colt owner is always in great company here. GBU & Happy New Year!
