Massad Ayoob is a legend. My dad and he were friends and taught at national seminars together. probably never forget the story of how he saw a wasp land down range in his peripheral vision, drew, turned, and nailed it and reholstered, in one smooth motion mid sentence. or how they would set off flashbangs behind the smg range before giving the order to prepare to fire after taking aim, to see who was following trigger discipline - a few people would squeeze off startled bursts when clenching up, get verbally reamed out, "and that's why you use fucking trigger discipline, that could have been a child slamming a door, etc etc." Grew up with safety and handling instruction (and ethics, which my dad taught at CMU as well) from as early an age as possible thanks to my dad and fiends of his like Massad. not to ramble about myself I'm just grateful for the insights I was lucky enough to get an early handle on from some of the best in their fields. much respect.

I do not care if my projectile expands. It will pass right through a spine from the front.

[@theodorehunter4765]

@@JohnLloydScharf You should care if your rounds expand. First of all, you have to hit the spine you're aiming at, or something else important to the other guy staying in the fight. An expanding round has a better chance of hitting something important. Next, if that round that passes "right through a spine", it is now traveling downrange, potentially endangering others behind your target. You are responsible where every round you fire ends up, even if you were justified in defending yourself.

[@wintonhudelson2252]

I have listened to a lot of smart, experienced gun handlers and learned a great deal over the years. The one that sticks out the most in my memory was the following. The gentleman asked a room full of gun owners what was the best pistol to use in an unexpected violent interaction. He allowed all in attendance to offer an answer. When they were finished, he answered. "It's the gun you have on you at the time ". He added, "Bigger, badder weapons you have back in the safe at home won't help you now, so choose something effective that you can carry everyday and learn how to shoot it well ". I believe essentially that's what these two gentlemen are stating. I don't know anyone better than these two people to listen to, very sharp individuals.

I cut my teeth on a 1911 and have always carried full or mid sized guns in a Milt Sparks summer special. I am 6 feet tall and 200 pounds. I have taught for 30 years and still advise students to carry the biggest gun that fits their hands and is reasonable for their personal circumstance. However. I have had a change of heart personally as I carry a Glock 43 more often than my 1911 or my Glock 19 or my Smith model 10 4". I also carried my G19 and had a spare G17 mag. Full disclosure, I am no longer in an LEO capacity. I live in a VERY hot climate for much of the year. And, I am old and beat up and blown up. Light, slim, and easy is a priority now. I can still shoot the hell out of the toonsy thing and that is the criteria.

I am but a simple 2a viewer. I see a video with you guys, I thumbs up.

[@troy9477]

Great points. In summer i often do pocket holster carry with a snubby because i like to tuck in my shirts. With an untucked outer shirt, my Kahr P9 or my favorite Commanders are quite feasible. The Glock 30 is a pretty efficient handgun too, balancing size, weight, and power. Since i am limited to 10 round mags anyway, a single stack mag is no great handicap. Therefore i am quite fond of my Sig P239 in 357. Shorter than a Commander, good ballistics, decent sight radius, and reasonable recoil. A good holster makes a lot of difference. A relatively high riding belt slide or pancake style works well for compact guns. A full size gun might tend to bow out a little at the top, but you have to try it to make sure. Train with your gear until it is second nature. Always carry at least 1 reload, and maybe more than 1 if carrying a revolver, just in case.

[@sweetcostarica]

Note: I read somewhere (maybe from Mr. Ayoob) for everyday carry *_most people_* end up after a short time carrying the lightest/smallest handgun they own, whatever that is. This is due to comfort & convenience. EDIT: HAPPY EASTER!

@Jake Stockton In the kind of scenario you're most likely to encounter, if you hit your opponent in the right place with a powerful enough caliber one shot is all you're going to need and you're not going to need to worry about control, and the 10mm is more likely to accomplish such a purpose with just one shot than a .38 is.

So glad you mentioned pinching hand when inserting mag. I’m a beginning shooter. Took course, went to range, was loaned a 22 pistol. First two times I inserted mag I pinched my palm and that hurts. I thought it was just my incompetence. Next time I went to range used same gun but was much more careful.

[@828enigma6]

I was issued a Glock 22 for duty use. I'm short waisted, and had difficulty getting it up high enough to clear the holster. Switched to a 23. Slightly shorter, but problem solved. Consistently fired 97 to 99 with an occasional 100 when qualifying. The slightly shorter sight radius made no difference in accuracy, but it was noticeably faster to present.

I love the weight and feel of having my 3.5" 1911 on my side. I have it on probably 8-10 hours every day and really don't pay that much attention to it. I'm 5'10" at 180 which many think maybe not big enough to conceal easily. I do wear shirts not tucked nearly always and they are bought larger than I would if not carrying. But, in Texas concealed or not isn't a big problem. Places that are anti gun I do not go into. " may they go broke" !

Good discussion and info. One topic that I never hear discussed is the ability to draw a full size gun more easily than a compact gun.

[@1977Yakko]

Being 6'4", I've been carrying a full sized Kimber Custom I 1911 for many years. It's doable for a person my size but it's heavy and uncomfortable. I generally just dismiss the comfort factor as a tradeoff for the security. That said, after being a firearm owner for 20+ years, I finally got a 9mm a week ago. Sig SP2022 which came with three 15 rd. mags to my surprise as all I've ever gotten with past handgun purchases is one or maybe two mags. The frame is short in that my pinky finger does hang underneath it when unloaded but the mag contributes to the size of the overall grip and I'm able to wrap my whole hand around it when loaded. It's not a compact pistol but it's certainly smaller than my 1911. As I get the Sig broken in and become more familiar and competent with it, I may use it as my carry pistol in the future. Assuming I can get ammo without selling any of my organs to get that familiar with it.

[@manrex5238]

You guys had a nice point right there when you mentioned the size and the height of a person,I’m 5”6 medium complexion and on top my hands are small so the best choice I’ll have is a small carry hand gun,I remember when sig came with the P365 I was amazed and it fitted perfect in my hands like no other before with a beautiful capacity.

Everybody has their own comfort level. You have to experiment with different firearms and holsters to find the sweet spot where you can carry it all day long AND still be able to shoot well with it. No two shooters will find the exact same solution. The guys who say "nobody who survived a gunfight ever wished they had brought a smaller gun to the fight" and those who say "a .25 in your hand beats a .45 left back in the safe" are BOTH right to a degree. Fortunately the market is now flooded with some truly excellent firearms that manage to combine small size with a decent caliber and capacity, making it easier to find something that works for you.

Back when I was a working LEO while the Sig P226 9mm then the 357 Sig was issue, I carried a S&W 642 38 spec 5 shot. Safariland speedloaders, 2-5 extras near and had now qualms about depending on it. I qualified on the duty carry qual course instead of the off duty qual course. All the way to 15 and 25 yds with full power duty loads. Bill, these round table discussions are informative and refreshing for a retired, 13 years ago LEO. If ammo will come back before I pass on, I will start out slow and basic. I do dress and dry fire in the house to keep muscle memory going for the draw stroke. I practice the dime on the SA slide and skinny rib on S&W Mod 27 N Frame revolver. Like I said, when ammo, IF AMMO makes a comeback, Back to Basics will be my floor to start back on. Keep em coming and remember our old Buddy, Larry Vickers. Not wanting the final to be LAV OUT!

There was a time when I wouldn’t have considered a DA/SA like the Beretta PX4, in fact, a friend of mine offered me a sweet deal on a like new one years ago and I turned him down. Then a couple of years ago, I started following Earnest Langdon on KZbin. Primarily, to learn more about his instruction methods and class offerings and of course was introduced to Beretta’s offerings. I liked the added safety features of the Beretta and was intrigued by the thought that if I could manage that DA/SA trigger well there probably wasn’t any pistol I couldn’t learn to shoot effectively. On top of that, I watched Earnest run a PX4 full size and compact carry model through 100K rounds each over the course of a couple of years without a single malfunction…even after the locking block cracked on one. I was sold! I bought a used full size, dolled it up a bit and started running it through the paces. Since then, I’ve added 4 more to the collection in 9mm, 45 ACP and recently, 40 S&W. As a former competition shooter and NRA Instructor, I’m always looking for ways to up my game and I believe mastering the DA/SA is enabling me to do that.

That sig p938 they have is the first small gun I have ever shot well, I have big hands and the grip is slightly larger than most small guns. Sig also has a longer 7 round mag (they have the 6 round) so your pinky can grip too. It is a fantastic carry gun, I don't even need to aim I just point and it always hits where I want when practicing (one hand). The only drawback is sometimes when using both hands and gripping tight my hand presses the mag release when it recoils, doesn't both me it just reminds me I should only be using one hand anyway.

Sig 938 has mags which have a larger floorplate to extend the grip so you can get your pinky on there. The P365 xl has the same capacity as a full size 9mm and the grip is longer than the regular P365, so it fits the hand better and reloads are much easier. I just replaced my P938 with a P365 xl and carry it with a 10 round mag(I am in MA, so mag capacity is limited to 10), but I like shooting them both. The P365 xl is only a little bigger than the P938, but is much better on the felt recoil. The extended beaver tail and longer grip allow a much higher hand grip and helps mitigate the felt recoil.

Guys have so much combined knowledge. In hot steamy florida not far from Massad's area (i am told by our local gun store), I tend to wear cutoffs and muscle shirt 90 percent of the year, Cant really hide anything bigger than a ruger lcp2 or sometimes my taurus 856 or kahr cm 9. if we ever get jacket weather sometimes i can carry something a bit bigger but that is not very often.

I carry my Taurus G3 very well. I use suspenders to carry the weight. I am right handed and use a left side inside poly holster.....I Love It !! It is comfortable. It is not strapped. I CAN fast draw just fine.
