Hello all, I'm in the market for a highly concealable, 9mm and higher handgun that doesn't have bothersome grips and can take drops/falls from hiking/mountain biking/road biking. Now, pardon ignorance, but I am assuming all is well doing strenuous physical activity as long as the gun is properly holstered.
I've searched Google for hours and I'm not getting much results as far as exercise and concealed carry go.
Some info below for the experts here as I think it might give a nod to a particular gun.
Male
6'2"
Large athletic frame
I've done my own shopping a few times in the last week and I've had my eye on a particular revolver simply for it's power and ruggedness, as I hike frequently in black bear territory it seems like a gun that may fit the bill and that is the Ruger SP-101 without the hammer. It fits the bill as far as size, comfortable grip, its a little heavy but no big deal as far as semi-autos go I'm lost. All the semi-autos I saw that I like the size and felt good to hold were all .38 or seemed somewhat flimsy with all their plastic.
To boot I live in an area that's populated by a lot of highly liberal gun control types, so concealment is high the list.
Thanks for any help.
