Concealed Carry thoughts.

Mr. Top Hat, I suggest getting the 27, i was about to get the 26, but then found this:
http://www.midwayusa.com/product/546719/lone-wolf-conversion-barrel-glock-27-40-s-and-w-to-9mm-luger-1-in-16-twist-346-stainless-steel

you can only go down in size, so u couldnt get the 26 and go up to .40.

Basically its like having two guns for the price of one.

the thing conceals SO perfectly, i wear tight tees and i can conceal it in my jeans perfectly, maybe a tiny outline, but if your not looking then you will NEVER see it.

POPTART, great story. and read what myself and mike wrote about open carry. thats why.

check this out, you can relate. also, at least in FL as a store owner you have the right to open carry in your place of business, you should as a jewelry store owner...

-=AlexXx=-, I don't see what you are talking about for open carry, personally i carry concealed because I don't need it as a deterrent. you can see my reloads on my desk. I'm also only drawing it for one purpose. anyone casing me will know I'm armed. I don't need to have it out. people don't feel easy about buying an engagement ring if they are staring at my gun.
Its just as ready under my shirt as it is in a holster on the outside.

Ive seen almost every store robbery/shooting video there is out there

I personally know this guy. theses two were the 3rd and 4th people he has shot Shocked

I'd CC if I could, but I live in a county that only rich, connected people get them, meanwhile one of the most dangerous cities in America is within this same county. Also, we have half a dozen new gun laws that will probably be signed into law that would make the Nazi's proud. Gotta love the bozos in Sacramento.
On a better note, I just received a real nice IWB for my Kimber, and have an 80% paperweight in the safe that needs milling for another AR build Wink

RUSSIAN, nice, what kinda of IWB?

Ive been struggling to decide on the Cross Breed or the Hidden Hybrid one.... i kinda like the option the Hidden Hybrid has that u can wear it outside your pants as well because it has those belt loops....

Also im really looking into getting M&P Shield... anyone on her have one? they are so small and thin, i gotta try to shoot one though, they seems almost to thin...

-=AlexXx=-, It's made by Cardon Holsters, it's a small company and the holster is great but the customer service is nill, I was getting a bit worried cause it took almost 10 weeks to receive and they are advertising a 6 week turnaround, and when I tried contacting them there was no response to emails, phone calls or Facebook. Oh well I'm pretty stoked on the holster.

POPTART, they seem to be pretty good... money back guarantee and u keep the holster?!?! thats unheard of with anything now a days.

i just got the glock 27 last month and im itching to get the shield... i gotta stop. lol

-=AlexXx=-, yeah you cant beat them , thats why they say that

plus they sell the kit which is fun to do, no need to rivet , everything screws together

Those compact 9s are what everyone wants now

I like that shield.
I also really really like the Beretta Nano
But for the money the PF9 is right there with them
Bought my wife the Ruger LC9

If you are a glock fan that PF9 is like the mini single stack glock that they will never make.

You ever watch Hickock45 youtube?
Here is a great Shield review from a serous TN GLOCK guy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A7pmjCWSgJU

there is a great post by tyler2you in this thread with the Shield with many other comparable sized compact 9s

http://www.thektog.org/forum/f100/its-here-introducing-new-m-p-shield-pistol-9mm-248337/index10.html

If you do get one Immediately buy the +1 mag extension so you can get your whole hand on there

I did for my PF9

Only cons of my PF9 I can say is that like a glock there is no button safety.

went to SMKW
this weekend

love that place, right next to the coleman outlet, and the cast iorn outlet Smash

picked up a Ka-Bar Besh BOGA for the wife to see if she is interested in a iwb knife
she is diggin it so far, and at 20bucks its a great starter
wanted to buy her an esee candiru but its expensive and id have to make a custon kydex sheath so she could carry it like the IZULA iwb, and thats a bit of a jump into her first
at some point im going to have to buy a rivet set up bc im having to much fun making holster mods Laughing

also picked up a Colt Tactical pen, cold steel, glass break pommel, DNA Catcher, flashlight, pen

we will see how it works out , only 12 bucks, so even if it sits in the center console of the truck

so hows that whole zimmerman argument working out, I mean he got outta jail and totally didn't attempt to threaten another person(s) with a gun...

triggamike, it proves that the jury made the correct decision. By "attempting to threaten" two white people with a handgun, he only further proves that he is indeed not a racist. Its honestly a pretty brilliant move on his part.

well i understand where you are coming from

like i said i think either of them could have avoided the conclusion

the judicial system worked exactly as it should have

domestic assault / crimes of passion are a whole different can of worms

if you have ever been married, you might know how easy it is to say something during the heat of an argument that is completely nonsensical, irrational, and or our of character

not to give him a pass on that one but just saying, in a heated argument i can see how it could happen
