    Walther Pistols...

    I've not used the PPQ but I would LOVE to find a P99 for sale or trade. It's the only platform I perform better with than my 9x19 Glocks

    Cheapest handgun you would trust for defense...

    A pal got a Norinco (Chinese Makarov clone) chambered in 9x19 that he paid $75 for. I don't know why but I swear to god that was one of the most unreasonably accurate handguns I've ever used. I was bouncing a 2 liter bottle around at well over 100 meters. I'd have carried it without worry if...

    Do you break in your carry pistol with 500 rounds?

    For me it depends. If the new gun is a platform with which I'm less familiar then I'll try and get 200 rounds or so through it for familiarization. When I switched back to the G19 last year I put 50 rounds through as a function check and haven't worried about it since. I do always run at least a...

    Taurus handguns.

    I can't speak for anyone else but all three of mine have been perfect. I own and am at this moment carrying my TCP in .380 which has never done anything but perform well. I also once had a PT22 that I fired thousands upon thousands of crappy .22lr rounds through and never had the first issue...

    EDC/CCW: how many rounds do YOU carry?

    This. Training and situational awareness overrule gear any day. My Systema training is far better than any gun I would carry.

    EDC/CCW: how many rounds do YOU carry?

    You'll find wildly different opinions on this issue. Some guys would feel fine with a single shot derringer and others carry more gear than a Swat officer and still go about their daily lives hyper paranoid that they're under equipped. One friend of mine from high school carries a Sig P220 in...

    Thinking about a .25?

    The original post seems to indicate that this is more for home defense rather than carry. If that's the case then there's no reason whatsoever for something so small. You'd be far better served by a full frame auto or wheelgun in a service caliber. My personal setup for the home is an 18.5 inch...

    Caliber Wars: then and now

    In the years since I began shooting handguns I have fired and examined all manner of them. My first pistol was a Kahr CW9. After spending too much time on this forum I fell victim to the ridiculous notion that the 9x19 isn't sufficient so I made the jump to a G23. A few months of sore hands...

    What Caliber Do You Carry Most?

    If wardrobe for the day allows then I carry my G19. If the Glock won't do for whatever reason then it's the Taurus TCP (.380) Interestingly enough I've found that I actually carry far less often since moving to New Orleans than I did when I lived in a small Mississippi city.

    As You Walk Out The Door: What gun goes with you today?

    90% of the time it's my second gen Glock 19 in a Blackhawk Serpa CQC, but I also carry it in a shoulder rig on occasion. If wardrobe won't allow for the Glock (I don't really care about printing, but I can't stand that huge bulge when in a suit), then it's the Kahr CW9. Cheers.

    Advice needed on a pocket pistol

    Thanks again for the advice everyone, but I found a deal today I couldn't pass up. I was talking to a pal about my situation and he said I should come over and try his Taurus. I got there and he retrieved a PT 22 from his safe. It's a DAO (which I prefer) and sports the polymer grips. I shot...

    Advice needed on a pocket pistol

    Thanks for the quick replies everyone. I will definitely check on the Kel Tec and maybe see if a pal of mine's uncle is still trying to offload his LCP.

    Advice needed on a pocket pistol

    I handled the .25 mainly out of curiosity. I don't worry about the size of the bullet as much as most guys.....only whether I can put it on the intended target.

    Advice needed on a pocket pistol

    Hey everyone. I've searched for a similar thread to no avail, but if this has been well covered elsewhere please post a link. Beween my Glock 19 and Kahr CW9 I am well covered as to carry pistols (I think). However, due to carry being frowned upon (but not illegal) where I work I find myself...

    I just emailed my State Senator, who I know personally. I'll post any information I manage to "promulgate" :banghead:

    Sorry it's been so long since I've commented on my own thread....busy times switching to a new school. The specific part of the bill that concerns most of us is the following: A person licensed under Section 45-9-101 to carry a concealed pistol, who has voluntarily completed an instructional...

    As most of you know, MS House Bill 506 went into effect July 1st. I have been circling the DPS website like a vulture but find no mention of the new endorsement. Has anyone heard anything?

    Traded my Glock 23 for a 19.....

    Thanks for the replies guys. I've put another couple of hundred rounds through the 19 since I made the OP and actually feel better armed with it over the 23. I've always felt that accuracy is more important than horsepower and I was all over the place with the 23. Thanks again and happy...

    Sold all my 'small' CCW pistols

    I carry my Glock 19 most of the time, but NEVER feel undergunned with my Kahr CW9. If I were reasonably sure I would encounter armed adversaries, I would prefer my AR over any pistol I own. Just my $0.02........which doesn't matter anymore due to inflation.

    Traded my Glock 23 for a 19.....

    After a mind-boggling amount of research, I purchased a new Glock 23 on New Year's Eve of last year. I had owned my Kahr CW9 for several months but was craving something with a bit more "oomph". I slapped down the cash, filled out the forms, and walked out with a huge grin on my face. All...
