[QUOTE="Ernie, post: 266045, member: 13"] First, off the riflescope question. Not as risky as it seems. Here is a link with a article I recently wrote. You may have to register to read it [url=http://www.handgunhunt.com/promo/membership/features/readNewArticle.php?oid=12]Handgun Hunter Magazine -[/url] Yes, I use riflescopes with my center-grip XP without hesitation, even my 7mm Dakota. Why use specialty handguns? The reasons are many, but for me I like the challenge, they are fun and accurate. Rifles got boring for me back in the 80's and I have liked handguns of all kinds. Another reason for using these types of handguns which (I agree) are essentially BR/tactical rigs with out a buttstock is simply becasue I want too. With a change of the forend I will definitely hunt game with this setup. If I intend to do off-hand hunting of any kind I would use a center-grip or a short barreld lighter weight rear-grip specialty pistol. As far as records go, I don't expect to be setting records at a 1K rifle match. I enjoy seeing how accurate I can be using a specialty handgun in comparison to what rifles are doing though:D This may not have answered all of your question, but hopefully some of them have been. If you have more, ask away. [/QUOTE]
