What is your CCW?
>>30053293
If you're trying to decide what a good weapon would be for conceal carry you need to take into consideration a few different factors.
If you live in a communist state where you are limited to 10 round magazines, 9mm might be taken off the list since you could opt for a .45 since aside from recoil control and lighter weight, 9mm loses it's advantage of having more rounds in a single magazine over a heavier cartridge.
So if you're worried about urban youth in your area, but you work a lot and don't want to worry about printing you could go with a subcompact. I am personally worried about your mom so what I usually carry is my dick.
Anyone can recommend a Lc9s pro?? How's the quality in the build compare to mp and glock.
I have the lc9s and it's honestly my favorite handgun. Super reliable, lifetime warranty, made in merica! Shoots like a dream the only thing I had to get used to was the trigger pull. And it conceals really well, very little printing I'm guessing that has something to do with the rounded edges
Kahr CT.380
It's pretty nice
>>30053293
Kimber Custom II
So far I like it more than my previous PX4
INB4 dog-piling
Should I get an XD9 subcompact for my first CCW? Is it reliable? I like the way it feels in my hand more than a Glock 43 or 19.
>>30053598
>"pro??"
>more than one ?
Kill ur self my man
I dont use that 10 round mag but still its a pretty nice pistol.
I wear a leather motorcycle jacket everywhere i go so i don't have to worry about printing.
>>30055544
you could 3 print with that thing
>>30055554
3d print*
>>30055041
Fuck you nigga an hero yourself, I bet ur no guns too lulz.
Anybody here have experience with CC a Bersa Thunder 9 UC pro? Im looking at one, but i've noticed its considerably more thick than other guns of similar size. Any advice would be appreciated
Shield 9 with a light/laser and belt clip. I love it.
>>30056271
looks cool
Sccy CPX 2
>>30056249
Same. So comfy~
>>30053293
Xds 9mm.
>>30054978
They're good and very reliable. /k/ will shit on it because
>not a block
>XDDDDD
>GRIP ZONE
No they don't have grip zone on them.
>>30056550
Shit, that was supposed to be glock, not block. Damn phone.
P320 or P938
Figured this is the best place to ask.
Thinking about picking up a p239 as a first carry piece. Anyone have experience with it or other sigs?
>>30056550
Don't know about anyone else but basically the same lower and slide as my PPS and it's a fantastic fucking gun. In fact when I heard XDS was coming out in .45 I was all pic related and shit but it makes more sense as a 9mm. Yeah some trolls will probably talk shit about the PPS/Shield/XDS frame, but they've been successful for a reason.
>>30056620
sigs are garbage
>>30056170
>bersa
don't rely on a hue gun if youre going to use it to protect your life. Spend the extra $100 and get something that you can easily conceal and that isn't generally a garbage brand. Sure, some of their pistol lines are decent (bersa 380), but a lot of their production is complete shit.
no reason to take a chance
>>30053598
>>30054319
My only issue with the lc9s/pro are the magazines. Maybe I got really unlucky but both my Ruger and MecGar magazine followers wore down abnormally fast and no longer activated the slide stop. I had to drill a hole and glue in a pin to get them to lock the slide properly as a hobo fix, but it works.
>>30055495
What type of ammunition do you load for CC?
Looking at getting a 9x18 makarov but I don't want to get it if I'll be stuck with FMJ for actually carrying it
>>30055495
I'm considering buying a Mak, should I...pull the trigger?
>>30053293
Glock 43 in an IWB holster
I'm thinking of picking up a semi for CCW, my main picks right now are a CZ RAMI and a Rock Island Armory 1911 compact(muh 10 round mags negate that factor) due to a combination of research and having both handily available to buy for decent price and try out.
>>30054978
I carried one for over 5 years. Never had a problem with it.
In fact I just replaced it with an HK P30sk
>>30053598
lc9fag here, can't go wrong with this pistol. Try one before you buy... you may not like the trigger. However, if your trigger control is good, you shouldn't have a problem.
>>30053293
FN FNS-9C
>>30056718
Send the mags back. It's Ruger.
>>30056995
LC9s isn't LC9 bru.
>>30054978
I used to carry one. It's a good gun. I'd sell you mine were you in central FL.
>>30054978
generally a subcompact is not an ideal choice for your first CCW if you're relatively new to handgun shooting as they are very hard to master. I recommend the Walther PPS (gen 1 or 2) if you are looking for a single stack nine, as it's incredibly easy to shoot well and has a very nice trigger. It's slightly larger than the S&W shield and the Glock 43 but is similar size to a Kahr PM9 or K9.
p64
>>30053293
I'm tall and thin, so basically everything prints on me. I went with a bodyguard 380. Been thinking about getting the Shield after this summer. Gotta look around at what's out there again though.
USP compact 45. I sometimes carry a Walther PPK in .380 on occasion, this is Texas.
Canadafag here. Just lurking and crying over our gun laws
>>30056620
don't listen to this faggot>>30056678
Sigs are generally over-hyped but that doesn't mean they aren't good. They are more refined than Glocks and S&W M&Ps, and are generally just as reliable *If you feed them good ammo*. I have seen two sigs fail regularly in their first 200 rounds out of the box, but that can be attributed to ammo not being loaded hot enough (handloads) and a break-in period.
The SRT is generally good, but it has sharp edges and if you use the "power crease" method for pistol shooting it may pinch the pad of your finger.
If you buy one, I'd advise buying a plain jane model, then sending it in to the Sig shop for an SRT upgrade (but specifically request that they leave in the actual physical part that is the original trigger and only change out the internal mechanisms and springs) as well as investing in a set of crimson trace grips.
I view sig DA/SA, decocker only pistols as the tactical handgun system with the highest skill ceiling of any non-custom factory offering. The caveat to this is that the difficulty curve of training with them is quite steep initially (as getting used to DA/SA is quite hard for many people) and then *VERY* shallow because many many rounds and repetitions must be executed to properly learn to stage the trigger and to speed and tighten up double taps from the holster.
Admittedly, none of these archetypes of Sig apply to the 239, they are characteristic of the 22X line, but the extent of my experience with sig is within the 22X type pistols.
As for the 239, it seems adequate, but its inclusion of a manual safety and use of a shrunken browning (1911) type falling barrel action makes it a pistol I would not personally elect to carry.
>inb4 you're just a 1911 hater
I have full confidence in the full sized steel framed designs which follow JMBs original design. It's the shrunken versions that I am wary of.
>inb4 You're just a Sig fanboy
My EDC is a Glock 19
>>30053293
You don't want to find out what my CCW is kid. Because if you do, it's too late. Nothing personal.
>>30056693
Where did you here Bersa was a bad brand? I've heard good things about them. I only ask because I'm curious, I already have a USP.
>>30057262
That is good information, thank you mate
FNX9. I'm a big guy, so it conceals okay when I can wear button up shirts, but the hot weather coming up is making it a bit difficult. I'll probably see if I can trade my poorfag 1911 towards something a bit smaller. One of those qt little Sigs look like they might be neat.
>>30057072
I'd rather carry double stack. I'm a large enough guy that I can conceal a double stack gun and I'd rather have the extra magazine capacity if I could have it.
>>30056836
It's my favorite gun I own and the one I spent the least amount of money on. I'm
Purchase that fucker. So much fun to shoot and stylish as hell. Fuck yea dick grips.
You won't regret it.
>>30057316
I have a Bersa Thunder 380acp w/ 2k+ rounds through it. Don't listen to that dude, they're fine guns. Only drawback is the 7+1 round mag.
Current rotation
>>30056952
Of the two I'd opt for the CZ. Not a CZfag, don't own a single one, but a budget 1911 is never a wise choice for a CCW
>>30057010
May have to pick one of these up...love my full size FNS
>>30057240
Another Canada fag. Tears are shared. I should cc a flintlock or some shit.
>>30058050
You're a big guy?
>>30056271
I like the concept of a pocket clip but I feel more secure w/fully encased gun: my Airweight .38 in Kramer pocket holster or M&P 9 in Crossbreed SuperTuck. Had an ND w/Glock in rear waistband -- no holster as an experiment. Blew hole in seat of jeans, scared senpai with me. Dumb.
>>30058464
I meant "family" not senpai, but latter is funnier...
>>30053433
Ew, crossdraw.
One of these two.
I carry an LCP almost always. Sometimes I carry a 92FS also.
From time to time I'll just carry the 92fs but the lcp is so small that I can just throw it in the pocket of any pants I am wearing and off I go. Hell, I cc the thing in gym shorts sometimes. I've done that with the 92fs too. Fuck printing. People think too much about it, the average person is an idiot and most people wouldn't even notice if you were open carrying the thing.
>>30059292
If you had to pick, which is better, five shot +p hollow point or six shots HP/leadnose?
Also bit of a cheapfag, which would be a good SD round that isn't 20-30 bucks for a box of 20.
>>30057240
>>30058377
At least we have our knives, right?
>>30059577
Hypothetical, if UK leaves the EU, would over time(5-10 years) could we see gun laws gett My better/lighter?
>>30053293
Lc9s with safety
>>30059602
nope, you already have too many muslims
>>30053293
Glock 26 almost always
TCP once in a while
1911 rarely.
>>30057508
For you
>>30058464
Damn, I was thinking about it.
Clips are cool, but would never use one for concealed carry.
>>30053598
I carry one and love it. Very solidly made
G20SF
Sidecar holster just came in
CZ P-07 Duty. It's a pain in the ass some times, but I enjoy the feel of a more full size pistol on my hip. I might carry something smaller once we start getting summer weather though.
>>30056836
If you're thinking of using it for carry I think there are much better option.
Definitely buy if you just want it for fun
Been carrying this for about a year. The ergos are god like and it just shoots so damn good.
>>30053293
Two things, should I get a LCP and what advantages does the LCP plus whatever OP's is have above the normal make?
(my FFL has a few NIB for 200), could maybe get a bit off that, for the normal ones, one is teal or turquoise or some shit and other normal black.
Gun feels light as all fuck, even lighter then my shitty raven arms.
>>30060326
It's extremely small.
That's it. It's otherwise a shitty gun.
>>30060326
get the lc9 if you can handle the very snappy recoil.
>>30060384
>>30060393
I was kinda thinking either a LCP(mainly I can get one cheap and easy from my FFL or get a P-64.
>>30060449
two shitty guns
save more or don't buy anything.
>>30060455
My dad already owns one(even liked it so much when it was stolen he bought another one) a Beretta 70s, damn find gun, not that costly, feel like getting one myself.
What semi compact or smaller pistol would be good for carry and not shit per say(would like a jetfire but it's only .25 and more then .380)
>>30057316
Bersa is fine. The UC model is good for carry. 13+1 regular capacity and the sights can be swap out for Sig sights if you want night sights.
Trigger reset is pretty sweet.
Any word on the new PPKs?
>>30053293
Turkshit
>>30058324
You get that constitution fro LaRue?
I'm still deciding what I want.
I think I've got it narrowed down to 3:
PX4 Compact Carry
Shield - Performance Center
XDS
>>30062347
I heard a lot of good about the beretta.
>>30062390
Yeah, that's still the one I'm leaning towards the most, but I do really like how thin the Shield is...
>>30062347
I use a XDS in 9mm. It's been very reliable. Out of the 1000 or so rounds I've put through it, I've only had 3 stoppages. 1 FTE and 2 FTF. Pretty sure the FTF were due to a new magazine I had gotten it while the FTE was probably because I was using cheap ammo for practice.
Anyone carry a P238?
I'm getting one as soon as my CC license arrives.
Kel-tec PF9
>>30058377
>cc a flintlock
Have I got a story for you.
>>30062347
Keep in mind the Shield is a striker fire and the other two are double-actions. I'm not a fan of the XDS but the PX4 and Shield are really nice. The Beretta probably won't be as easy to find used.
>>30062888
>trips of truth
Bullshit.
XDS is striker fired. Hell the entire XD line is striker fired.
I ccw the highest quality Pocket Sand.
>>30059560
6 shots, 148 grain SWCHP. 1 more round, is one more round. But if you only have a 5 shot revolver and it can handle +p then go with a hotter 148 grain SWCHP.
Cast your own and reload them for real cheap.
But if don't want to go that route, go with Magtech 158 Grain LRN. can be had for about 23 bucks or so for 50.
>>30060326
Op pic is LCP custom.
It has better trigger, raised sights and a front night sight.
Its a awesome ccw if you get the 7 rd extended mag rugerr sells.
>>30064391
>>30066322
Thanks m8. Good ammo advice and might look into the LCP custom. You got an opinion on the Polish P-64(or the Makarovs in general)
>>30062888
>The Beretta probably won't be as easy to find used
Especially since the Compact Carry version isn't even out yet...
>>30053293
I'm 6'5 240 (lifting, not fat) and want to get my ccw. What should I look for in a fun? Ever only had rifles.
