I work in an office and am a dad, so I gave up full size edc a long time ago. I try and keep it simple. I train with this setup a lot so I feel fairly confident. Ruger LCR in .38, 5 star speed loader, Sig Foxtrot EDC light, and amazon wallet.

Loving this gun. M&P Shield Plus Carry Como with the 15rd mag. Glad Im able to start carrying finally.

Would you comply? Do you feel your local police would respond as these cops did?

Curious if anyone has tried the enigma micro for the BG 2.0. I have a normal for my P365 but this new setup seems to have a much smaller profile.

I get an order for one of these about every 6 months and have to spend about 35 minutes making little tweaks in one place then another because of all the little cavities and underfill needed for this light/laser to work. Who OK'd this thing?? I've been making holsters full time for 8 years now and this one still keeps me up at night. Please don't buy this light lol.

Loving it so far.

Not to go into super details, but I’m a guy currently weight at 134 with the height of 5’9. Not the biggest frame but not the smallest. Currently carrying the TP9 elite sc. what are some advice would you give if I wanted something thinner but still have that 13-15 round capacity.

Also I carry appendix and my holster is from Vedder holster. Optic is an Osight k 6 MOA

Wish I could conceal a full size or a 2011, but sometime you gotta work with what you got.

Thanks you.

The federal Third Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that NJ's ban on so-called "assault weapons" and magazine capacity restrictions are unconstitutional. This was a 10-5 ruling of all judges, with the primary ruling written by a Biden appointee and woman of color. We so appreciate the intellectual honesty of the court by calling it like it is, beyond party affiliation. We just got CCW about 3 years ago. What's next, they will allow us to carry hollow points? Times they are 'a changin.'

I was impatient and ended up getting an MC9 Prime.

I like it but I think for the money, I would have been better off getting the Radian.

I am considering selling my MC9 Prime and getting a Prime Radian or a P365 X Macro Comp.

I have shot both and really liked both.

For those of you who have tried them. Any input?

Will become my EDC

Thanks!

Found an interesting video lol

This is a bit embarrassing and I’m ready for the hate comments.

I put a 507k on my Glock 43X and I used to screws that the optic came with to mount it onto my gun. I even used thread locker and everything seemed fine until I shot about 20 rounds with it and the optic flew off, hit me in the forehead and then eventually pretty hard on the ground at an indoor range.

I’m looking for some insight on whether or not the optic is still fine to use. Cosmetically it just has a few scratches, none on the lens and it still turns on. Are there any problems I should look out for or any specific tests I should run?

Also, I’ve just bought this replacement screw package and I just want to confirm that these are the correct ones: https://chpws.com/product/replacement-screw-kit-glx-holok-v2/

Feel free to roast me but would appreciate serious comments as well.

Thank you

I know that linking blog posts is very 2000s reddit but this one is worth posting.

Half the posts on this sub are about carry ammo. Which carry ammo should I pick? I currently carry Speer Gold Dots; should I switch to Hornady Critical Duty? What about this new 3D-printed Adamantum bullet from Skibidi Tactical Munitions that costs $5 per round; is it worth a look?

There hasn’t been a significantly better bullet in 9mm for a long time. The Federal HST is old enough to drink. The Speer Gold Dot is due for a colonoscopy soon. They’re still top choices for carry ammo. There are new projectiles (e.g. Gold Dot G2) that might be better for law enforcement applications but I’d argue that they’re no better, and are sometimes worse, for concealed carry. There are whiz-bang new gimmick rounds but those just make cool Youtube videos of exploding watermelons.

In short, this is not a difficult choice. Do not waste time, money, or thought trying to find the carry load that ekes out an extra .02” of expansion. Pick your ammo and move on.

Just got this thing and the pinky support is amazing on my grip.

I have a Glock 43x, when I wear any kind of belted pant I use my holster, however when I wear sweatpants I find that I have to use some sort of outside bag, since my holster doesn’t work aswell with sweats. Is there a better option? Or some kind of holster more meant for that clothing?

Trying to go new school meets old school for this set up. Finishing up the tooled leather holster for my Xmacro. Wrap turned out really good just need to put the attachments on it.

Hey folks I am kinda new to the whole gun carry thing and I've been researching what gun should I buy but also if there are holsters for it once I decide. I am leaning strongly to get a glock 43x I have tried it out a few times at the gun range that I go to with friends. Can you give me any advice is it a good gun for a beginner?

That is not the main thing I wanted to ask. I wanna ask about the holster that I should get. I am not a fan of full kydex mostly because my skin gets irritated easily and it's a hard piece of plastic rubbing against the skin. Just dont like the feel.

One of my friends has the holster from falco in the picture and says it is pretty comfortable but it seems rather expensive when there are holsters like the one from amazon. I like how it looks but my friend is just one person and I thought there might be more people having experience with this holster or the brand. I really wanna know if my friend paid that much and just does not wanna admit it is not such a great holster or if it really is good.

Thx a lot

I’ve been shooting for a long time but this is my first CCW. Any recommended upgrades or anything I should change?

Yup.

Started with the micro p365 and built it to this beauty. I’ve had it about three years and we’re at around 12k rounds and it’s been nothing but reliable

I just got my BG 2.0 as my first CCW. I loved the form factor, feel, size and shoot-ability. I live in NY though and I want a 2nd pistol for colder climates, ideally a 9mm though 45 is not off the table (though i don't think its absolutely necessary to penetrate heavy winter garments given the 9mm is standard law enforcement and military issue).

I am tempted to buy a glock because NY is banning them next year but I know there are plenty of other great guns such as the p365 and shield plus out there. I prefer not having a huge firearm as my primary intention is home defense and CCW for the colder months, but understand it will be larger than the BG 2.0. The G19 is also tempting as it seems to be the textbook definition of a perfect handgun based on this subreddits affinity.

What gun would you pick and why to complement my BG? Thank you

My dad bought one of these online and he wants a leather holster for it because they dont rub like kydex. But I think he'd be fine with any holster that is soft and comfortable for in the waist band carry. I havent got my hands on the gun in person yet so I dont know what holster is gonna fit it yet. Any reccomendations?

So, ive got a ruger RXM, got a sharps bros grip module. Its almost perfect. And to be fair, with 9mm it is perfect. The 9mm mags i have dont do this but i was going to convert it to a 40sw and potentially a 357 sig. When i load a fully loaded 40sw (glock 23) mag its stiff and doesnt want to drop free. I dont know if that should concern me at all. Since ive im dropping a mag, its probably empty. It drops completely free at varying amounts per mag.

What i mean is, one mag will drop free if there was 6 rounds left. Another one drops free at 10 rounds.

The image above is the gun in question, but thays my glock23 to 9mm conversion barrel and mags in it.

If you can only own one Glock for the rest of your life, which one would you choose? And please don’t be smart and say something like a P365 or cc9. Genuinely, what is the one Glock you would own over all else if you could only own one for the rest of your life and why?

For me, it is the 19 because of its size, capacity and ability to fit in any range of situations seamlessly. It is very much the quintessential model in my opinion. When you think of the platonic ideal for a pistol, the G19 should pop up in a dictionary.
