Optimal carry gun?

[redrex]

You might as well ask what is the best screwdriver. The answer is the one that's right for the job. A lot of people have multiple guns depending on the condition.

Rugged LCP for ultra compact pocket pistol for those hot days when you are in shorts. Keltec PF9 for jeans shirt no jacket.

But you want to carry inside the belt? Kahr cw9?

Wearing a jacket or maybe you just want a little something extra... I tried the Kahr 45. Its great, light and very accurate especially if you consider the barrel length. But I'm getting rid of it to standardize on the 1911 platform. There are some nice mid and compact size models out there.

It's entirely about what works for you and the situation.

Tagged, interested in Glock 26 information.

Brother has a Glock 26 and I have a XD 9mm Subcompact... I still prefer the XD over the Glock, but my girl has a Kahr CW9, and it really is better in every way as a carry gun. The more I shoot it, the more I want to take it from her.

If you are looking for a carry weapon, the Kahr line should not be overlooked.

The perfect carry gun does not exist...

Unless you're a stripper, the perfect carry gun DOES exist...

...It's just the carrier's selection that is controversial.

I keep coming back to thinking a S&W air weight in .38 really is practical.

Opinions?

Already have all the semi autos I need.

S&W Bodyguard in .38 with laser sight?

Well the 642/442, LCR and assorted other snubbies sell well for a reason. As long as your not going to war its a great CCW option. All my local shops said they cant even keep them in stock for LEO's.

For me its really only a G26/G27, P239 or 642. I'd buy an XD sub but I would have to shoot it again.

You can get a little sheath that breaks up the printing everyones speaking of with a snub/j frame. Works wonders.

Look for a model 49. I particularly like the shrouded hammer that doesn't snag but can still be used for s/a shots

Good option as well.
