    Humorous but something may be learned

    Short video, only about 1 minute; its humorous, but something may be learned. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1655612774657974278 Example take away: Draw speed from concealment is impressive.

    Pocket guns. 380 versus 38 special snub

    Testing using heavy clothed clear gel, which may not be perfect but allows for consistent comparison. https://www.luckygunner.com/labs/revolver-ballistics-test/ https://www.luckygunner.com/labs/self-defense-ammo-ballistic-tests/ No, there is not a 380 bullet that compares to the 38 special 130...

    Memphis, Jacksonville (big city) - Same carry as "Quick trip to the store"?

    Anticipated threat factor into carry, or is it consistent? (Excluding work, if applicable) I carry a handgun I'd prefer to defend myself with anywhere, everywhere; so, same carry for me if going to a big city or shopping at local Publix grocery. Same carry everywhere? (Excepting work, if...

    Capacity of the handgun you carry most of the time.

    What is the total capacity of the primary handgun you carry most of the time? If its a semi the total capacity is full mag + 1 even if you don't top it off. Extra magazine or speed loader is not counted. 6 rounds or less. Examples: snub, most revolvers, Kahr CM or PM40 10 rounds or less...

    Capacity? Yes, please.

    Drawing against the drop. More than one armed attacker. Attackers continue to shoot back after the shooting starts. https://www.kktv.com/2022/05/05/warning-shocking-video-shows-gun-battle-between-store-employee-would-be-robbers-now-homicide-investigation/ Missing the point: I don't work in a...

    Glock 17 and 22 gen 5 - good stuff

    Few months ago I got a Glock 17 gen 5 and really liked it; strongly prefer gen 5 grip over gen 3 or 4. Not too long ago I got a Glock 22 gen 5 and the thicker (heavier) slide is IMO what Glock should have done with 40 from the start; going from shooting the 22 to the 17 there is subjectively...

    Euphemisms used by some related to carry

    https://www.wordnik.com/words/euphemism use of a mild, delicate, or indirect word or expression in place of a plainer and more accurate one Example and work is specifically excluded. One owns a 442/642 (snub) and a Glock 19 - they shoot the 19 better. They carry the 19 sometimes, but not...

    Do examples, incidents, matter to you?

    Six examples where 5-6 rounds capacity would have been deficient. 5 out of the 6 examples involve only one attacker. #1 #2 #3 (about 1:30 in) #4 #5 #6 https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/video-crazed-man-attacking-deputy-soaks-up-12-rounds-before-hes-stopped/ Do examples, incidents, like...

    Carry philosophy / perspective agree or disagree with me.

    Hypothetical example: Someone has a 22 mini revolver, 38 snub and Sig 365. They choose to carry the 22 for a "quick trip to the store". I say carrying the 22 implies they would prefer to defend themself with it instead of their other options. Agree or disagree.

    Carry all the time, video reminder.

    Man attacked by pit bulls, saved by neighbors. Having a gun on person would have been advantageous.

    Just tell it like it is, no rationalizations.

    Example rationalizations: I live in a good area. Nobody want to (volunteer to) get shot with it. Better than nothing The Extreme Nuclear 32 acp does bazillion damage to gel Example truths: It is the best I'm willing to carry (not work) It is the best I can carry (work) I have a physical...

    Recent range day with favorite Glocks

    This was my 2nd indoor shooting session since Jan. I had the luxury of shooting in my backyard for the previous 17 years. Having others shooting and watching are factors I'll get use to again. Had been carrying a Glock 23 or 32, which was session one; yesterday, was to help decide which of these...

    Is your most carried a handgun you would prefer to defend yourself with?

    Of the concealable handguns you own is your most carried handgun one you would prefer to defend yourself with? If not, why not. For example, My 1st preference would be my Glock 20SF but it prints unacceptably with some of my favorite summer (most of the time here) shirts. My 2nd preference is...
