Applied for my Firearms Permit today.

Post by sigma74216 on Tue 16 Mar 2010 - 9:58

So now I guess I have a few week to deside on what CCW I want. I would like some suggestions from y'all if you will. Thanks

Congratulations on the permit. Are you more familiar with autos or revolvers? As far as a carry piece goes I recommend something that feels good to you, and as small and as light as you can get without giving up too much ammo capacity or caliber size that your comfortable with. I mainly carry a glock 19, 27, or a j frame smith.

I have a G23 that I'm going to try. If that doesn't work I was thinking about the LCR or a subcompact Glock.

The Meet & Greet II is May 8th. I bet you could get the opportunity to look at and shoot many "different" makes and models!! ... before you commit to purchase ... just a thought .. Sign-up now!!

I like my S&W M&P ..

I thought about the Meet & Greet to get the feel for something I would like. I'm just not 100% if I can make it or not yet. I usually get busy in May but I'm trying. Should know something in a couple weeks.

Congratulations. Unfortunately, I can't help you with deciding on what to carry. A carry gun is as personal as the type of underwear you prefer. There's almost no wrong answer. Just carry something that feels right and makes a big enough hole (no 25s or 22s). I also recommend that you don't go cheap on the holster and belt. This is just as important as the weapon. FYI: I like the Glock 26.

That 23 should conceal just fine.

The Super Tuck is a GREAT choice. It's the only holster I've ever had that can comfortably conceal my XD 45 with just a t-shirt over it.

When i ordered the Super tuck for my LCR i got the V clips with velcro. A sturdy belt with some velcro on the inside of it and your good to go!!

I'm glad to hear that about the Super tuck cause I kinda had my heart set on one. I'll probably order one when I get home.
