Does anyone happen to know any countries in the Caribbean where concealed carry is allowed?

I've been looking for a subcompact pistol, and to my surprise, many of them do not seem to have an external safety on them. (Specifically, I've been looking at the Kahr PM-9). What are your thoughts on these kinds of firearms? While I am new to the world of firearms, it seems that all the...

Are some firearms cheaper to practice with? I really like some of the .380 pistols, however, someone told me that practicing with .380 ammo would be more expensive. Is this true? If so, which types of ammo are generally the cheapest to practice with?

Do you feel that semi-automatic weapons are reliable enough to carry? I've noticed that a lot of people here carry revolvers for their reliability. This has me a bit weary about choosing a semi-auto as my weapon of choice. Your thoughts?

In your opinion, what is the best pocket pistol on the market? (Please also tell us why you feel the way you do).

I'm thinking about moving to Grand Cayman Island. Anyone happen to know the gun laws there? Am I allowed to own? Am I allowed to carry?

Ok, so.... are there any modern-day, double-barreled pistols that are practical for self-defense? (Every time I see one of these guns, it looks like it's a hundred years old!) :p

Is there any reason to carry a double-barreled pistol? If so, are there any companies that make a good one?

I'm looking to purchase a pocket pistol very soon. That said, it seems that it would be very difficult to draw the weapon from my pocket while in a seated position inside my car. Are there any good ways for me to carry my weapon while driving that would allow for a speedier draw? (Ideally...

I was thinking about purchasing an S&W J-Frame for pocket carry. Since this weapon can only hold 5 rounds, I was thinking about carrying a second one in a cross-draw position. Would you ever carry a J-Frame in a cross draw position? Would this make for an easy draw (or would it be...

I would like to pocket carry either a S&W or a Taurus J-frame revolver. I've heard a lot of good things about S&W's in this forum.... but they only seem to carry five rounds of ammo. The Taurus model, on the other hand, will carry 8 or 9 rounds. Which do you think makes the better pocket...

I thought it would be great if we could start a list of pants that work great for those of us who pocket carry. Do you happen to know of any? If so, please give us the name of your favorite pair(s) of pants to pocket carry in. (Ideally these would allow for great comfort and a speedy draw)...

What do you think is the best pocket-carry gun for a beginner and why?

For those of you who pocket carry, which direction does your weapon point when you are seated? I mean, if someone sits across the table from you, is your weapon pointed at them? :eek:

I really like the S&W J-Frame weapons. However, it seems that these guns only hold five rounds. Is that going to be sufficient for self-defense??? (I'm not so sure I'd feel safe with that). Also, do you happen to know of any handguns that are similar to the S&W J-Frames that are able to hold...

I have long legs, long arms, and a short torso. I was practicing a few IWB draws tonight with the weapon in the 4 o'clock position -- but it was VERY awkward for me. When I stand normally, my fingers extend about a foot-and-a-half below my waistband. For me to have to reach up so high to draw...

I really like the waistband carry.... but isn't it uncomfortable??? I mean, having a gun inside my pants between my belt and I certainly doesn't sound very appealing! Oh.... and wouldn't that require me to buy pants with a larger waist size?

What is the purpose of a pocket holster? Can anything be done to make sure that it doesn't come flying out of my pocket when I'm drawing my weapon?

In regards to self-defense, do you think it is best to get a handgun that has a hammer.... or one that does not? My main concerns involve: 1) Being able to get a shot off quickly 2) Feeling confident that I would never accidently fire my handgun while it's in its holster. (Someone in...

I'm looking for a gun that I can easily conceal -- so I prefer handguns that have a shorter barrel. That said, will a handgun with a shorter barrel have less accuracy than a handgun with a longer barrel? Additionally, I would like to add a laser sight to my handgun.... is this possible on...
