Ty for your input. The consensus seems the gun before the ammo. I was leaning towards most of the responses.You can have all the ammo in the world and it won’t do you any good if you don’t have a gun to shoot it from. Also what if you stock up on 9mm and then run upon a sweet deal for a .45 or 357? Just seems to me that the gun would be the biggest expense and that all other purchases would be dependent on the gun chosen.
I vote get the gun you want first and then ammo, holsters and anything else you may need or want.
