Around this time last year my wife and I decided to obtain our CCPs as there have been a rash of inexplicable shootings of late in the area in which we reside. Like you we live as rural as one can get, but frequently find ourselves having to make trips into 'town'. We're well armed in regards...
When first purchasing pistols for our CCWs my wife picked an Intratec Protec 25 and I picked a KT P11. As total neophytes we got lucky w/t P11. Not so much w/t .25. Problems from the jump and ammo is much more expensive than target quality 9mm.
So, when looking for a CCW replacement for...
The P11 weighs more, is shorter, thicker and carries 3 more rounds. Having shot both I'd rather have a P11. It's almost as concealable and round count may or may not be important to you, but it is to me. Still, for the money one would be hard-pressed to find as good a buy in 9mm. Certainly...
Yeah, there are alot of transplants that want to force their liberal views on native Tennesseans and get nowhere. TN is a 1st cousin to Texas and they take a dim view of "Yankees movin' here and tryin' to tell us what to do."
It's my great fortune to have spent alot of time here in my youth...
It was my good fortune to buy a P11 9mm at a small gun show before really knowing anything about handguns in general. My wife and I wanted to obtain our CCPs and we did. She carries it every day. It was used when we got it. Has had no issues w/FTFd or FTF.
We clean it, but aren't...
Just discovered the Masterpiece Arms Protector 380 series. 5+1. 1/3 the price of a Seecamp w/a workforce of prideful individuals. Same dimentions as the SC...I'm in. Would've gotten a .32, but there wasn't one available on their website. So, I'm bumping to the next level cartridge while...
My experience w/t pistols you mentioned was similar. It's my fortune to have friends and neighbors w/all 3. They were happy to let me try them. I provided my own ammo. Very 'snappy' and uncomfortable. Not that a CCW needs to be a range warrior. In addtion, I was able to shoot a Kahr P380...
Went to the MPA website and found the 'Protector' sub heading, but no .32s. Just .380s in 3 different models. All very reasonably priced. They have a video posted and I watched it and came away impressed as I've got some machining experience. My brother is a CAD geek and he checked it out...
Yeah, I got that impression. The website was really informative. My confusion lay in the fact there were no pocket pistols. The uzi-style isn't something I'd be able to take on a bicycle. :p Well, maybe to get to the grocery store in a SHTF situation. Thanks for your rs, though.
The 'shiney' factor in wanting a Seecamp .32 is the heirloom consideration for my son. It also happens to print very small. This is important for CC while cycling as there aren't alot of ways to keep one's CCW from printing. I don't do spandex, except as a base layer w/a pad. But, I do wear...
When looking on the Seecamp website I happened on MPA32 acp and a 380 not much bigger than the Seecamps and made in GA. Went looking for a website and all I found were these uzi looking things in various calibers.
Are they no longer making pocket pistols? They seemed a good compromise of...
Yeah, I knew about this site, but neglected to mention it. It is a great site. There is alot more detailed information. Certainly, between the two there's plenty of option suggestions for CCW and concealment. Ultimately, though it's going to have to be her choice.
The reason I ended up...
My wife carries a KT P11 and loves it. Her SD rounds are C.O.P. 115+P JHP. Her choice is 10+1. She said the last thing she wants is to try and rack the slide in the middle of a high-stress situation. She's had plenty of range time as we've a makeshift range on our property.
A little put...
If and it's a big if she prefers the simplicity of a revolver and isn't opposed to the size Ruger makes the LCR in .22 mag now. IMHO .22 mag is overlooked for SD potential. The LCR .22 mag is chambered for 6 rounds. And it's a little lighter than the LC380. 2 less rounds as well.
On...
What you woud need to seriously consider is a Crosman C31. They have a safety w/a color indicator should one want to know if the pistol's 'hot' or not. I use it all the time.
Not only is it legal in TN, once the canine in question hits the paved portion of the of the road surface one can...
Like I said. 6" groupings consistantly @ 30 ft w/an 8+1 capacity of 50 gr FMJ aluminum I'm confident in being able to get the job done should the need arise w/my little Intratec Protec. Over 400 rounds down range after purchase w/a few FTFeeds and trigger sticking issues, initially but once it...
