[home/funds] unrelated to family, money is generally tight and have made the decision to sell my 9mm this weekend

partially some we can get stuff for the house

but also, I never fully fell in 'love' with my 9mm

and Nerd BF found a 9mm that looks VERY MUCH like the Lady Smith I've always wanted and it's not discontinued, so I can get that down the line when we're a bit more secure financially

also, that one is more concealed carry-able than my current one

and I mostly just target shoot anyway

so went to check out this new place near us (rather than the sportsman shop like 45 minutes away) and it'll be easy to sell them my 9mm

meanwhile, one guy there was suuuuper cool and helped me look at guns more suitable for someone as petite as I am

and I've settled on (once we're stable) a really nice .380acp

obviously, at that price, it's definitely a financial stability thing

and that's fine

more worried about things for the house rn

and who knows! Maybe they'll get in a used one when we're actually ready to replace my gun so it'll be cheaper

also, he explained how trigger safeties really work (there's actually a like... 3-point system to a trigger safety, it's not nearly as bad as my dad always said it was)
