Need help finding and buying a magazine for my Thompson.
It is a Thompson semi-automatic carbine. 45 acp. I’m currently looking for a 30 round mag and don’t care too much about price. I did try ordering the polymer mag but that wouldn’t let my order go through, I live in TN so I don’t have any real restrictions from sites for ordering anything. I do believe it is one of the semi auto remakes as it fires from a closed bolt instead of an open one like the originals. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

9mm bullet advice
I have shot at the range with a few different guns and have decided on a Glock 17V. I’m still a little new and look for the best brands of bullets. I know I want hollow point for home use if I (hope I don’t) ever need it and FMJ for the range.
Suggestions?

Is it $200 Taurus PT 92 worth it?
I’ve been itching to get a Beretta 92 and slap some raccoon Police Department grips on it, but I already have two pistols now and a real Beretta 92 is a bit more pricey than I can justify spending right now.
I just found a used Taurus PT92, in good condition, at the used gun counter at my local gun shop for $200.
Is the quality of a Taurus PT 92 sufficiently inferior to a Beretta 92 that I shouldn’t even bother? At that price point? I know it's not comparable to the 92FS, but it has a decocker, and the slide racks like butter.

Best HD option?
I’m new to all this and I was wondering if an AR or shotgun or even both was better for home defense. If someone could tell me the strongest variation and rounds of the 2 that’d be appreciated too, thanks.

First gun
Okay, so I grew up around guns my whole life. I decided to purchase my first hand gun and added a few things. Now my feed on Facebook and YouTube is flooded with videos of people who say "Sigs are terrible" and a lot of comments agreeing with those statements. I'm a little worried I wasted a bunch of money for something not very reliable.
I didn't have plans to Conceal carry with it and I have gone to the range with it and I am happy with how it handles. I was mostly disappointed with myself that I didn't notice there's no safety option.
Gun: Sig Sauer P365 Fuse
Grip: Kiral 6511X brass wide body
Barrel: True Precision 4.3" 1/2×28
Sight: Romeo-x enclosed compact

How much does the Holosun 507 Comp sell for used?
It seems new and used prices are quite similar. Has anyone got a smoking deal on a 507 Comp or should I expect to pay close to retail?
