I wasn't dismissing your comments and I was careful about adding the fact that it was personal opinion.
I still stand by my opinion about the Compact being the better choice despite some others to the contrary - they're entitled to their own opinions as well.

Whilst there is a huge amount of very good advice on the entire BBS - when it comes to asking for individual gun recommendations it tends to get a little 'focused' at times....its a small price to pay and far better than indifference

It also depends of course if you're looking for new or S/H as well, cos' if its the latter - what's available at the time can have a large part to play as well.
