Concealable .40 cal. ideas

[smt77]

A relative of mine asked me to post here looking for input on a good concealable handgun in .40 cal. Price isn't an issue...just something reliable and easy to shoot. The relative is retired L.E. Any input is welcome.

Even though Greg-Dawg is a little biased, I'm going to have to agree with him here. The 27 is the best combo of power and compactness I know of.

Or the Glock 23, ...In an inside the pants holster or under the seat of the truck.

Better all around size (colt officers) for normal hands if it fits your concealment requirements. (not much of a boot gun... )

And, w/ either Glock, ...carrying an extra clip isn't all that important.

Glock 27 or Kahr MK40

Candidates

I would suggest the following:

1. Kahr P40 - Polymer, light weight, very thin.
2. Walther PPS - Polymer, light weight, very thin.
3. Kahr K40 - All steel, heavier, very thin.
4. Sig P239 - Aluminum, heavier, medium thin.
5. S&W "shorty forty" - Aluminum, heavier, medium thin.
6. H&K P2000SK - Polymer, double stack, heavier, medium thin.
7. Glock 27 - Polymer, double stack, heavier, medium thin.

It all depends on whether your emphasis is on extreme concealability or having more magazine capacity and some weight to absorb recoil.

Glock 23 is about as good as it gets.

I prefer a Springfield XD subcompact.

G27 or a Kahr. W/ the Kahr, be prepared to break it in w/ 5-600 rounds. If it passes the muster, it's quite hard to beat the size of a PM or MK40. Much easier to conceal than a Glock.

Springfield XD40 Compact

I would have to say the Glock 27 is one of my favorites. I have others but it has the .40 cal and 10 rounds. That's great for a concealable weapon. And it's light and made of space age technology. There are those that can hit targets at 80 yds. with it. Here is a pic of it's compactness. You will need the extended finger grip as on mine. It's cheap. Also longer clips will fit in it.
