Ok guys, here's my new toy! Ruger SR40c. Got to shoot it tonight, too, which is why I'm so late--came home with a headache from the ear protection. Damned things pinch behind my jaw and cause me grief every time. Anyway:
Even though it's a 40 cal, it shoots NICE. I'm used to a big boom with the 50 cal and all, but for a compact weapon, the recoil for me isn't an issue at all. I even got to shoot my coworker/friend's 9 mil version, and it's pretty sweet, too. Hardly any difference in size, amazingly enough.
I think I might have mentioned all that before, I can't even remember. But here, my first magazine dumped through it.
I LOVE THIS GUN!

Next up, Howa 500 bolt action sniper rifle with 20" heavy barrel. But I had to have my favorite gun shop order the silly thing, apparently it's on back-order, and I'm going to have a little bit of a wait on my hands.
This is what my tax refunds go to, by the way, when I'm not using it for computer stuff. ;D
Just realized, too, I must be a big Ruger fan, since I have three of 'em now. ::boggle::
My Rugers? One is a 10-22 rifle, the other is a full sized 9 mil and the third is the one I just got, my compact 40 cal.
The hand cannon is the S&W 500.
My dad also still has his 3 .38 S&W revolvers from his LAPD days, and fairly recently bought his S&W M&P 45 for his concealed carry weapon. They recently came out with their compact version, just the other day I think, but he likes the full sized one he already has.
All in all, I guess this is a Ruger/S&W household. LOL
