When in Pat...That's kind of a cute little gun.<br /><br />When in Patrol, I carried a Sig P220 .45 cal with the Euro release. Single stack mag, with FOUR other mags arrayed horizontally on my Sam Browne.<br /><br />In my boot, I carried a Charter Arms Bulldog Pug in .44 caliber, 5-shots, bobbed trigger, blued, stacked with SilverTips. I also had a double-speedloader case on my belt that no one seemed to notice.<br /><br />When I was in Warrants and I approached a door and/or spoke to someone I doubted, my right hand gripped this same Bulldog pug in a Banana Republic vest pocket. If you'd thought of pulling some shit on me, whilst you were stupid enough to think I was "relaxed," I'd have shot you dead right in the gut or chest. With a BIG round. Kinda makes me smile.<br /><br />I still carry this gun today. When I go "train-chasing" up in the mountains, I carry a beautiful 15" Bowie knife in a way-custom shoulder rig directly behind my back. I also carry my Bulldog Pug in a pocket and, on Bad Days, my 6.5" Model 29 with Hogue grips on my left side. Liars and tigers and bears, oh my.<br /><br />Yours has a nice hole. I like my bigger hole.<br /><br />BZ<br /><br />P.S.<br />When I carry off duty any more, I carry a revolver. I don't want casings spanging all over. And I like the Big Hole.Bloviating Zeppelinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01359816456769157176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-18757250825347880622011-08-09T08:24:55.652-07:002011-08-09T08:24:55.652-07:00Glock, Glock, and more Glock.

IMHO, once mastered, the Safe Action trigger is unsurpassed in defensive "combat" use. Since you own one already you know some of this. I would say a Glock 19 or 23 if you think you "need" .40 cal but the 9mm is more shootable and arguably ammunition is more plentiful and cheaper. With the proper loading 9mm will more than do the job.<br /><br />Bwksazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03483385950597349520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-83877181722545182802011-08-08T23:05:41.595-07:002011-08-08T23:05:41.595-07:00Nothing like first-hand knowledge to maybe change ...Nothing like first-hand knowledge to maybe change my mind about a purchase, W&W.<br />Thank you.Greybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11919862790973521778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-67533860258555005392011-08-08T21:38:24.474-07:002011-08-08T21:38:24.474-07:00Calmer Half and Housemate identified the gun on si...Calmer Half and Housemate identified the gun on sight, and both state very firmly that it kicks harder than a .500 Winchester, is brutal, and leaves marks. "Very concealable, but it is brutal, and only has two shots. Not a viable defense gun."<br /><br />As Housemate(who tops 6' 2") says, "I can shoot .50AE out of a desert Eagle all day long, but I have no desire to shoot that again. They make a .38 special, and even that hurts - it feels like .357 magnum in that thing."On a Wing and a Whimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00754595334684845895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-68912245345324793682011-08-07T14:40:53.367-07:002011-08-07T14:40:53.367-07:00I bought a Glock 26 for Sara Jean last year, Dana....I bought a Glock 26 for Sara Jean last year, Dana. We like it a lot.<br />It's accurate, recoil isn't bad, ammo is plentiful, and it's easy to carry/conceal.<br />Check the <a href="http://www.kevinwebb22.com/guns/glock-26-generation-4-review-%E2%80%A2-9mm-concealed-carry-pistol" rel="nofollow">reviews</a> on it, then find a range where you can rent a couple candidate pistols and actually fire them yourself.<br />Keep the .357 as a backup. Buy lots of ammo for both.Greybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11919862790973521778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-15014961613226521862011-08-07T14:27:50.122-07:002011-08-07T14:27:50.122-07:00Maybe you can help ME.

I mostly worry about (1) it's accuracy, (2) the barrel heating up (3) the caliber.<br /><br />I'd do a chest shot. The kick would place it neck high if not head high.<br /><br />On the other hand, a crotch aim would give a grand belly wound that would definitely sting a bit while I was S*L*O*W*L*Y dialing the sheriff.THINGS YOU'D NEVER GUESS ABOUT MEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10627183704637063465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-61963582271850679422011-08-07T13:35:20.397-07:002011-08-07T13:35:20.397-07:00Most my purchases are based on how loud the gun is...Most my purchases are based on how loud the gun is......if by chance I miss, I'll scare the begebbers outta them!! <br /><br />I always strive to to find something that sounds close to Dirty Harry's 44 mag ;-)<br /><br />SO, Mebbe I'd lean towards a 410. <br /><br />I saw a single shot 410 pistol once almost bought it but then, thought the 175 bux for it was a bit pricey and walked away from it. I don't recall who made the thing.Scottyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16121811949825846208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-8423281491605200742011-08-07T09:45:43.458-07:002011-08-07T09:45:43.458-07:00Personally, I look at the tiny mass of it, think a...Personally, I look at the tiny mass of it, think about how much kick .45 and .410 have, and wince while wondering accurate it's going to be while kicking you in the hand. <br /><br />But that's not an informed opinion - I'll see if my Calmer Half has shot one, or something similar, for an actual opinion worth anything.<br /><br />Personally, I'd rather be cleaning up a messy living room, patching drywall and repainting, than failing to stop an intruder. Besides, I've wanted to repaint a different color anyway. Still, I go for center mass - figure I'll be shaking with adrenaline, and a head is a smaller, faster-moving target.On a Wing and a Whimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00754595334684845895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12452759.post-13393746262369907132011-08-07T05:17:53.549-07:002011-08-07T05:17:53.549-07:00I imagine the muzzle blast would cauterize the wou...I imagine the muzzle blast would cauterize the wound - at least on the front.....The Old Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09854776544931267722noreply@blogger.com
