Id recommend a G47 or M&P 2.0. I’ve used both on duty and they’re great pistols.
10mm is probably more than you want for a first pistol. Both due to recoil and the price of ammunition. You want a pistol that is both fun and economical to shoot. That equals practice and practice leads to...
Sorry, meant to add: 15-45x65UHD (which is half the price of the Razor) or the 20-65x85. The larger scope is a little more and is obviously more powerful, but much heavier. Weight is something I do consider.
So I need to get a better spotting scope. My hunting is typical Arizona spot hunting. Both desert and mountain, depending on the hunt of course.
For binos I have a pair of 10x42 Razor UHD’s so I feel I’m good there. (Or at least not willing to spend several grand to move up right now)...
I’ve never worn the Renegade, but I’ve had several pairs of the Zephyrs and have loved each one. Break in is quick, effective soles for hiking in both the desert and mountains and have lasted me well. I will say that I’ve never worn them in really wet or snowy conditions
