I have some gun money coming next week and am thinking about what to get next. I am more of a shooter than a collector, and my next pistol will be range use, occasional carry, and possibly starting to shoot a local match or two.
I currently have:
Colt Government 9mm
Colt Defender .45
Colt...
It's perfectly safe to carry chambered.
The only way the pistol will fire is if the trigger is pulled. It's no different than carrying a Glock, M&P, D/A revolver, or any of a number of D/A semi autos.
The best safety to use is the one between your ears.
I used to pocket carry a Tomcat at work every day. It always ran like a top and never gave me a single issue.
I did have one major complaint though. I was too fun to shoot with .32acp ammo prices. I couldn't just shoot a few mags at a time, I liked shooting a few boxes at a time, it was cheaper...
The American Classic was very accurate out if the box. I did have an issue around the 300 round mark, when the original barrel bushing broke. Forgetting that it was under warranty, I had a local smith hand fit a new Ed Brown bushing. It will now shoot one hole groups until I get tired of...
I put some rounds through my new HK P30sk and Ruger LC9s Pro this afternoon, as well as my 9mm American Classic 1911. I've had the 1911 for a while, but put new micarta grips on it and wanted to get a feel for them.
The two new guns both ran like tops with Blazer brass 115gr fmj, Atlanta Arms...
I have been carrying a 9mm 1911 or a CZ P07 9mm (The CZ was sold last week and HK P30sk is at my FFL awaiting pick up to replace it). there are times that I need to be very discrete, and drop a Kahr CW380 into a pocket holster or carry it IWB.
I love the way the CW380 disappears and is so easy...
I have been shopping a small pocket .380, and got me thinking of making another change in my small pistol collection.
Currently, I have:
American Classic 1911 Government 9mm
EAA (pre Windicator) slabside .357 Mag in 6"
H&R 923 .22LR revolver in 6"
Walther CCP 9mm
Ruger MKIII...
I'm trying to identify an EAA revolver. I bought used in 2008, sold it in 2009. I have never seen another like it and had a chance to buy it back, so I jumped in it.
It's NOT an EAA Windicator. It's blues with a 6" slab side barrel that is drilled and tapped, has a fully adjustable rear...
I ended up selling the Sig. After a few more range trips, it just didn't work for me.
I replaced it with a RIA 1911. 1911's have always worked well with me.
This is the result of 25 rounds at 25 feet.
I will place another vote for Remora.
I have used them for everything from J-Frames to a Government size 1911. They are easy on, easy off, stay in place, are comfortable, and conceal easily.
For the 1911, I use one with the sweat shield and without the reinforced top.
