Concealed Handgun recommendation

this is what I carry.

Get a Ruger .380 LCP with a laser. It will fit in your front pocket.

No. Not an option I will ever consider.

My youtube is acting up. Can you explain what the vid is?

Can't go wrong with a wheel gun! S&W .38sp +p airweight w/ crimson trace laser grip sites is a great gun for conceal carry. Lots of good single stack semi-auto's to choose from too. Go check out hickock45 or sootch's reviews on youtube.

You're into bulky overkill, huh?

Get a high capacity revolver...

Ruger LC9S. Google the reviews. Excellent single stack.

Depends on how much you want to spend, what caliber you're comfortable with and other factors.
I carry a Glock42 .380 with a plus 2 extension with one in the pipe.
Some people don't want anything less than a 9mm for personal protection.
I also have a Ruger SR40 in my center console at all times.
Depends depends bro.

Small and Light, my kahr p380 w a crimson trace lazer, holsters in my watch pocket only 9 oz ish. I never carry w a round chambered. too close to my nuts. bigger less often carried, Like to get the mail, work in the yard ect. But i sleep w my glock 19 and a 12 ga.

Heard a guy say once "If you don't carry with a round in the chamber, you might spend the rest of your life racking the slide"

You will after a year or two carrying.

Everyone starts out with a large gun and eventually migrates down the line to smaller more comfortable guns.

Just is what it is.

I love my glock 17. Tried, tested and true.

Oh I see, you're new to Conceal and Carry and have a small dick syndrome so you need a big gun to compensate.

Get a .500 S&W Magnum then. Good Luck, don't shoot your eye out kid!

9m

I like my Glock 26 for waistband carry.

a good wheel-gun is hard to beat but a
single stack 9mm like Kimber solo or Glock 43
would work for a small frame guy.

I like that..

sig p320 compact is a good choice but i recommend going to your local range and renting diifferent firearms so you can answer the question for yourself . Glock and Sig are always great options.

It is true a few weeks ago had to rack one in a stressful situation, wolf fighting my rott shep mix ran out he ran off at first but turned around and came back on me flashlight in one hand 1/2 racked one jammed. my bad, changed to a 38 undercover special for a few weeks, now back to the light weight kahr again and no chambered. well at least my paints will be up if i die. No shit in LA the PD description in the getto now includes the color of the perp's underwear.

hudson integrally suppressed

wilson combat 92

cz shadow

FN 5.7

Bond Arms Bullpup

Salient Arms Stryk

Scandium frame revolver or chiappa rhino

Oh and check out the Walthers.

Go and see what fits your hand the best.

Glock 43 for the size

I really like the 5 shot hammerless S&W revolver in .38, but my son carries a S&W M&P shield in 9mm and loves it. I think it comes down what you prefer but either one is a great carry gun.

I've carried for 13 years now.... the first 3 years or 4 I went from:
45 glock
45 chiefs special
45 single stack glock
9mm glock
.380 PPK
In every carry method you can imagine... IWB, belly band, OWB, all around and every which way... even had a pagerpal.
Still have a box full of holsters.

Finally got an Airweight .38 special, in a front pocket carry holster, never looked back.

They just kept getting smaller and smaller.

When I get my CC I'm gonna carry a 22. Lethal and accurate, can put out multiple rounds no problem. I guess Mossad carries them as well.

Don't ask us for recommendations instead go a a range and rent some handguns then make your own choice

Not bad - the Ruger LCP II is good as well.

OP - first question, what is your budget? You have to start there before anything. Don't forget total cost of ownership - you need a good holster, a few 100 rounds of target ammo and a high quality carry ammo - the best you can afford because god-forbid you ever have to use it in self-defense, you want those precious rounds to inflict some serious stopping in the tracks.

I am a big fan of the Sig P238. It is small, easy to rack, easy to conceal, and best of all (ok, I'm old school..not looking for a p--sing contest about this) it has a mechanical safety. The belt holster it came with is fine during cold months but in warm weather a front pocket holster works well and hides the outline in your pocket. Best thing I did was find a local range that rents, for $20 apiece and cost of ammo, over time, I tried the Sig, the Bodyguard, LCP, and a couple others. I liked the Sig the best. The range credited my rental fee towards the purchase later on.
