I went to MumuuMart the other day and just couldn't find a thing!Venus Pax wrote:I prefer the .45, but it's hard to conceal without wearing a mumuu.
Given the choice between the 9mm & .40, I would go with the 9mm. Ammo is cheaper, and you should always carry hollow points anyway.
Caliber choice for someone new to the carry community is really still a matter of choice, what you feel works for you...If you can control it, and your accuracy is good with it, then obviously you use it...
I grew into the .40, only after I decided I was going to do it till I got sick of it, or loved it...Bought a SigPro2340 and shot it till I got sick of it...Tried a Glock 23, and it became one with the hand and mind...Concealability, function, and not having a single Failure to Feed or Fire in almost 8 years and a few thousand rounds...I can't throw rocks at it...
I don't know why the Sig didn't work out...It doesn't mean I can't carry it, it just feels a bit off to me...But I'm weird that way...
As for a .45 platform...I'll carry one, and I have one that'll work just fine...Matter of fact it shoots so nice, I would place it above the Sig for a carry weapon...
9mm's are great...And in my opinion your target is just as got with a 9mm as anything else out there...My wife carries a 9mm Taurus PT24/7...That is one smooth shooting firearm...It'll get the job done...
It does look like you've gone through and sampled some really good firearms...Thats shows good sense on your part...I believe you'll find something soon that'll work for you...
BTW, I saw in your post you tried that G22...That is only a slightly larger and heavier Glock than its slightly compact little brother the G23...
If .40 is your choice, I believe you'll find something that is extremely workable, and has lots of accessories to support any manufacturer you choose...
Let us know what you end up with...half the fun is the journey you're taking right now...Good luck!
BTW, "Wife-Unit" likes a .45 over .40...Strange girl!
