About the size of a G19, VERY accurate, and you have the option of carrying it standard double action, or cocked/locked. I do need a weapon light for mine.

I've cc'd a G19 for years, and it's worked very well. If I were looking for a compact, striker-fired polymer 9mm right now, I'd give the M&P 2.0 Compact a hard look. I also bought a Shield about 4 months ago, and it carries like a dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geeorge Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 You are missing a lot by not looking at revolvers too, I actually carry one of each at the same time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happyguy Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I've pretty much settled on a Beretta PX-4 Compact in .40 for AIWB and an M&P Compact 2.0 in 9mm for on the hip carry. The M&P Shield resides in an ankle holster as a backup during church services. Regards, Happyguy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gun Shark Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 I really like my P229 legion in .357sig that I have been carrying for almost a year. It is not too heavy, it's more accurate than me, and I love the X-Ray Sights. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valmet Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 Ultimately whatever you decide you shoot best, like best, and are comfortable carrying. My personal vote is always a Glock 19. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you plan on pocket carry? If so the Sig P938 is about as small as your are going to get. It is a 1911 style action which means carrying clocked and locked. I could never get comfortable with that idea so I bought the slightly larger Ruger LC9S-Pro. Fine in cargo pants, still a bit big for jeans pockets. New is not always better. I still haven't found anything as easy to carry as my High Standard DM101 (.22 mag derringer). I have carried my DM101 on the beach, in swim trunks.

Citra47 Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Best advise I can give is go to a large, well supplied gun store in your area, git someone to help you but don't pay much attention to their likes and dislikes, and look at/handle as many handguns as you can. As you look at they guns, imagine them being carried by you 24/7 for at least 10 hours per day. A heavy gun may look nice but those extra ounces make themselves known before too long. Try NOT to give too much credence to what others like and dislike. We are all different and purchase our carry guns based on our perceived needs. Even the shape of some of the pistol magazines can begin to rub you the wrong way after a while. Make a list of handguns you like and find a range that has guns to try out. Better still, make friends with some gun people and see if they will let you fire some on the range. In other words, make this decision yourself - it will be you carrying the gun. Caliber??? Normally 9mm on up, although many of us do carry .380 ACP at times. I will only say this about the .380. If the time comes when an armed intruder enters a room you are in and you contemplate reaching for that "little" .380 stashed in your pocket, you will suddenly wish you had carried a much bigger caliber gun. As a friend once said years ago, "I wish I could carry a Colt Ace that would turn into a .45 ACP if I had to draw it". Good luck in your search. Shop like your life depends on your purchase because it can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
