I like your funny words magic man


Just one?

You need at least one for each season. Unless you're the kind of guy that would carry nickel plated after Labor Day. I'd suggest something for for formal occasions as well. No way I'd want to be caught at a wedding or debutante ball without something formal...maybe a .44 wheel gun in a crisp leather shoulder holster.

Opinions are like you-know-whats, but I would recommend a Smith & Wesson M&P Shield 9m. I suppose that a .40 would be just as good. I find that it fits my hand well, as the clip has a built in extension so that even my pinkie finger is around the grip. It has a little bit of weight to it, which helps, and for a 2" bbl, it's quite accurate at <25-feet ... or at least as accurate as my advanced age will permit. Good luck!

Tried all these and ended up with the M&P Shield. $249 stone cold bargain from palmetto armory if you time your purchase well.

I'll give some good advice


Jun 1, 2020, 2:47 PM

Decide revolver or pistol....


If revolver, get some sort of 38spl revolver. Nearly any brand would be fine


If pistol, go with 9mm... I went with a .40 for whatever reason, but the ammo is more expensive and the round is very "snappy". 9mm would let you shoot way more often due to the cheaper ammo. The Ruger LC9 is VERY cheap and a pretty solid choice. Tons of other choices out there, but the Ruger is pretty universally recommended.

I love my Sig 238 and 938


Jun 1, 2020, 3:24 PM

basically the same gun, one is a 380 and the other a 9mm.

They are small enough to conceal in your front pocket with a pocket holster - I am not good on a leg or belt type holster.

I would recommend shooting different guns at a range that allows you to rent them before you buy one.

I know the 9mm has more punch than the 380 but I


Jun 1, 2020, 10:42 PM

am more accurate and faster on target with the 380, probably due to less recoil.

Love both guns though.

Jun 1, 2020, 3:27 PM

Get one of these... a 40 MM hand grenade launcher



badge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Jun 1, 2020, 3:42 PM

you. I like a revolver. Pull the trigger and it shoots.

practice practice practice.

I used to carry in the wasteband, but now I'm getting fat and it is uncomfortable. Pocket carry for me in summer and in winter shoulder holster.

I’ll definitely try the list below before I make a final decision.

LCP (.380)
Colt Mustang (.380)

dont buy a 1911 because they are addictive

military_donation.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I found CZ's are addictive as hell


Jun 1, 2020, 10:30 PM

but I don't like the Rami for carry (just a little to thick for me) and the Dan Wesson ECO is nice, but still a little bigger than my Sig's. I also have the CZ 75 Compact that is bigger than the Rami.

So, GDI, I just looked and they have a new Dan Wesson Compact, I wish I had not seen that. Might have to call my guy in Pickens.

And if you want to buy a pistol that is a PIA to breakdown


Jun 1, 2020, 10:43 PM

it is a Dan Wesson.

But they are so nice to shoot. :)

i have a CZ527 carbine that i want to sell, it is 7.62x39 in walnut and is a hoot to shoot, they were hard to get at one time, will make someone a sweet deal

Not a rifle guy


Jun 2, 2020, 7:40 AM

but sounds like a nice gun.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpgringofhonor-fatherg-110.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I looked at those.


Jun 2, 2020, 8:11 AM [ in reply to Re: I found CZ's are addictive as hell ]

It's a perfect addition if you already have an AK variant, but I went with the Mossberg MVP bolt in .223/5.56 instead. Accepts AR mags, which is a huge bonus. It's a tack driver, and I'm a Mossberg guy anyway, so it just made the most sense for me.

ringofhonor-rhtig.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


I have an APX Beretta 9mm..


Jun 2, 2020, 8:44 AM

Oh meeeeee

badge-donor-15yr.jpg2012_nascar_champ.gif flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

any of the serious suggestions above are good.


Jun 2, 2020, 9:52 AM

id suggest 9mm
try them all and go with the one that feels best
dont be afraid to stretch your budget
get a good comfortable holster setup
I carry a keltec pf9, but the S&W MP is a solid choice too
good luck!
