Re: Looking for a good 40cal ccw
My experience over the past 4 years is that the smaller the frame, the more likely I am to carry. I too am a teacher and cannot carry at work, but I also have a fairly significant need to carry after I leave school. So for me, a single stack compact 9mm (XDS9) has been good. When I have the freedom, I love to carry my larger XD-SC9. When I bought my first gun (SW SD9VE), I carried it, but I never enjoyed carrying it due to its size--but the main reason is due to the horrid trigger on that weapon. There are tons of guys on here who carry full size 1911 .45s all day every day. So it can be done. You likely won't find 1 gun that meets all of your needs all of the time. You'll buy different guns and 7 holsters for each of them before you settle in to what works for you. Good Luck and Have Fun!
