I like everything about my G26 - it's extremely reliable, simple to service, great to shoot, and has a decent magazine capacity.
However, it is heavy and bulky enough that a dedicated every day carry may become a chore. Do I grab it when just making a quick run to the corner drug store ? I am no longer a 32" waist stud, and there's just not that much space inside my belt to share with anything...
So, I was looking at LCP, but I can't warm up to a .38.
The next logical step would be a LC9s... But is there really that much positive difference between it and G26 (easier to carry, pocketable) to justify living with negatives (an added expense, not as pleasant to shoot, smaller capacity, a gun I am not as familiar with as I am with a Glock).
I.e. is it a real grab & go gun, not "get your IWB holster and the sturdy belt and the pants with some room, adjust until it's comfortable, then finally go" gun ?
