Yea it's truly unfortunate how many folks didn't have the same opportunities to purchase them. Hopefully we will gain access to them again in the future. Many of my friends don't even have interest in shooting any of mine, as they can't purchase one themselves

Yeah i saw a USP for sale the other day on gunpost for an amazing deal but because i didn’t have a exemption it was out of my reach

I think for about 99% of PAL holders they are out of reach, so you are definitely not alone. Handguns used to be a fairly budget friendly way of getting into shooting with more of the commonplace polymer framed ones being 500-700$. Even more budget friendly options came in around 300-400$ which generally were still reliable firearms.
