If you get to the point of getting your concealed carry permit, you can get the handgun then. For now, get the 12 gauge. Much more versatile. Take the wife to a clays range. She'll fall in love with it.
I can conceal my S&W 642 in an iwb with shorts and a T-shirt, no problem. It's light, accurate, and feels great in the hand. My De Santis Tuck This holster puts the cylinder below the belt so you barely feel it. I like it ahhlot.
Everyone on here is a fucktard. My truck cost $89,000 and hauls my $120,000 boat up to my $500,000 union-built house on Chippawa Lake. Dave, I'll give you $5k for the car F/S 2011 Hyundai .... $18k. I miss him so.
+1 to everyone else above and before. I own 3 870s (my grandfather's wingmaster, my wingmaster, and express home defense). Picked up the home defense for $320 before $30 rebate at Vances. There isn't a finer multi-use sub-$grand scattergun made. I believe Maverick is Mossberg's budget gun. My FIL's fell apart after a box of shells but that was nearly 20 years ago.
Ok.. I'll play ... stratoliner deluxe $17500, nomad $18400, ultra classic $18999 MSRP to MSRP. Sure, you can add lots of expensive leather fringe to up the value of any of them. Picking similar bikes from each manufacturer doesn't get you too far apart. Edit: I meant "Electra Glide" not "Ultra".
