Re: Gonna use a small gun as my main carry.

One of my best friends son work for one of the county's in Florida, the whole department just went with S&W bodyguards in 380 for backups. They love them from what I hear. I own and shoot very well a Sig 230 sl that I carry. As I have stated before my first instructor, 4 tours as a ranger in Vietnam and now 30 plus years as a cop carries a 380 every day and swears by them. Not only has he been in combat but he has used his weapon in the line of duty. They do work. That's why there are so many choices because we all have different experiences. A 22 has put more people down than probably all pistol calibers combined. This will be one that we will all never agree on yet it will always be close to our hearts . This is a awesome forum that I have already learned lots . I look forward to learning more. Thanks.
I bet if they could figure out how to carry it, they would probably rather have another G21 as their BUG. :lol:

When you wake up in the morning, how do you know if you will be in a threatening situation that day?

Re: Gonna use a small gun as my main carry.

This may or may not help.

Even a Chihuahua or Pug can scare away some BG or keep them from breaking in your house. But, if they actually come in, would you rather have a Pug or a German Shepherd Dog, Rottie, or Malinois? There are, of course, many other large breeds that would suffice, but I picked these three because they are typically used by LE, maybe not the Rotties that much anymore here in the U.S., and many of our SD weapons are also used by LE. There's a reason why the police use what the use.

That's a big change.

Yes. Yes it is.
And if you don't already have a good gun belt, get one. It will be a little more comfortable.

Re: Gonna use a small gun as my main carry.

That's okay. I carry a small gun too. Glock 30SF. It's much smaller than the 21SF I carried around for 6-8 months before finally switching over to the little one.
