    Recommend me the best pocket carry

    My glock 42 conceals well in jeans with pocket holster. I also have lcp but glock 42 is much better gun. It prints when I sit but I just put my hand on my thigh covering it when I sit. Never had a problem anywhere I've gone.

    1911 alternative carry options?

    i have tried multiple high quality holsters with heavy thick gun belts and they simply do not work for me. I have no ass or hips so belt drags pants down unless my belt is so tight it hurts. I want to carry my 1911 more since I'm so proficient with it but can't find a way to carry it. Any...

    Glock 42 problems

    Ok. So cleaned it. Locked slide back for a few days and manually cycled slide 100 times. I bought federal American eagle 95 grain fmj. This gun loved them. Shot the whole box with zero malfunctions. Tried to shoot wwb again and every 3rd shot failed to eject. It was better but still a lot of...

    Glock 42 problems

    I will run some more ammo through it but I have soured on glock. Not happy at all. I was worried when I bought my first 1911 since I heard all about break in and no jhp. My Colt has been flawless from day 1. I bought the glock because I thought it would be flawless too since my 26 has been...

    Glock 42 problems

    I field stripped and cleaned it. It had a bunch of copper colored gunk on slide. I stripped it off and Then used clp. I hope this fixes the issue. The slide is stiff as hell. Why would they use such a stiff spring on a .380?

    Glock 42 problems

    Glock 42 problems

    I just got a brand new glock 42 and I'm frustrated as heck. I shot 24 rounds of ppu and 24 rounds of Winchester white box. Stove pipes and failure to eject EVERY shot. I am pissed and now bleeding form trying to clear one of stove pipes. I then switched to Hornady critical defense. Shot two mags...

    Carrying a loaded firearm

    When I first started carrying, I was afraid to carry one in the chamber. For about a year I carried without a round chambered. Then I had an incident where I was armed, I felt threatened, never drew my gun or needed to (threat went away without need to) but it left me VERY nervous had if I...

    How many of you were converted to revolvers?

    I had no interest in revolovers when I first started shooting, now I love them. I only have one, my trusty GP100 stainless 4 inch barrel in .357. My favorite gun to shoot. I wish I lived in a state that allowed open carry so I could carry it more. I only carry it when I am jeeping, hunting...

    Need help choosing CCW

    I got to shoot my LCP today at my club. I shot 25 Winchester FMJs, 24 PPUs FMJs, and 7 Critical defense. Not a single malfucntion. The gun shot flawlessly. I was surprised I didnt have any problems, most people say u will have some issues during break in. I was also surprised how easy it...

    Need help choosing CCW

    Yea, I noticed that. My XD and GP100 didnt have that or at least not nearly as bad. That little LCP had a lot of grease/oil in it. The CLP seemed to dissolve it. I wish I had some spay in solvent but all i had was a little jar of hoppes that was almost empty,. I used the hoppes for inside...

    Need help choosing CCW

    Got it all cleaned up. There was a thick layer of oil on all the metal, looked like 10w-40. Nasty stuff. I suspect this is the reason alot of people have problems with autoloaders out of the box. The direcetions dont even tell you to clean it before u shoot or at least I didnt see it. I hope...

    Need help choosing CCW

    I am not looking for an excuse to buy another gun, believe me. I dont want to spend the money, I need to regear and put a locker in my jeep so money is at issue now. But I have tried everything to conceal my XD. It is such a pain, it almost always stays home where it is worthless to me. I...

    Need help choosing CCW

    I do not have large hands so that isnt an issue. However, I have only shot full size handguns so that is what I am used to. Problem is that I am short and concealing a full size gun with a short torso is a pain.
