My wifes got a bodyguard. Its accurate and fits in the palm of your hand. Only holds seven rounds is the drawback. I was surprised how accurate it was at distance.

Glock 43 or Ruger SP 101 depending on how I feel or situation . The 43 is carried most often . Been meaning to pick up a NAA 22 Mag . Hopefully will soon .

Since you don't like striker fired weapons, I'd go with a Sig P238 or S&W 642 Airweight to get me back to my vehicle and more firepower.


I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

Had that problem with a Smith 442, don't believe it would even register (it was high probably 15 pounds lol) on Gundocs trigger scale 😯 Anyways he took care of it for me 👍

H&K or Walther if you want a good striker fired trigger. Hammer fired double single,I would be looking at an H&K.

Lots of great guns mentioned in this thread. Make me want to go buy a whole gun shop load of them all.

For better or worse, I ended up buying a Sig P229 in 9mm. It’s a heavy gun, but I do not anticipate needing to carry 8 hour days, etc. A hefty gun in 9mm will help me with followup shot accuracy, and I like the decocker. This particular version of the P229 has an upgraded trigger and sights. It was one of those things where it just fit my hand when picking it up. If it doesn’t work out, I’ll refer to this thread and pick me another one.

A Sig P229 is a good choice in a carry gun. With a good holster and belt you can carry it all day without even noticing it's there.Bullhide Belts makes a belt specifically for concealed carry. It's thicker than a normal belt and holds your holster in place better.

I've been carrying a shield 40cal but I switch up from time to time between a m&p 9mm and a browning hi power. I carried a p225 for years it was my favorite for a long time until someone wanted it more than I did

for a striker fired pistol: s&w MP shield performance center in 9mm or 40. the PC trigger and fire sights are worth the few extra bucks ...

Glock 43 with 2 extra mags in my pocket is my everyday carry. I do sometimes carry the Glock 19, also with 2 extra mags in pocket.

I’m typically a hammer fired man, but I’ve carried a Sig 365 since they were released. Size, weight, capacity, and unbelievably accurate!
