Concealed Carry Weapon of Choice

[Grape Ape]

Ammo, targets, gun cases, basic accessories. I prefer to buy online as it’s easier then going to a store and an item being out of stock or unavailable.

You can get all your cleaning stuff at amazon.com

For personal ammo I usually just go onto ammoseek.com and find what I want..they always find the best deals.

I prefer to support my local shop, even if it means paying a few bucks more, I've developed enough of relationship where they will special order, call with advance notice of new arrivals, handle minor gunsmithing without a bench fee, etc.  I realize that's not an option for everyone, but if you have a locally owned business, try to support them.

Tons of sites if you want to go online, find ones that have good reviews and shop around. Will make your head spin but you'll find yourself settling on a few places. Stay away from cheaper than dirt though, fuck those guys.

How did you manage to get away from 4 armed thugs with weapons approaching to rob you?

Outran them.

Would have preferred to leave them on the pavement with holes in their heads, not an option this time around.

A lot of debate about this question. When carrying do you keep a round in the chamber or no?

That's not even a real question. ALWAYS carry with one in the chamber.

Yes.

Trust your firearm.

I always have a holster with good protection.

Easy there. It’s a real question that people with a lot more experience than you or I have differing opinions of.

Yes
Admittedly, it took me awhile to get comfortable with it.

[NarcissisticDeity]

If anyone is uncomfortable with carrying with one in the chamber you shouldn't be carrying.

And it's been repeatedly proven that to draw and get on target with one in the chamber is quicker than drawing, racking and getting on target. I don't know of anyone that promotes carrying on an empty chamber. Some might say that it's ok to carry that way until you can get comfortable carrying with a loaded chamber. There may be, but nobody I have watched or learned from.
 Practice is key, buy yourself some dummy rounds and practice, practice, practice.

USCCA has a lot of good info, but I'm still not using them.

There should be no debate. One in the chamber, safety off. If you have a holster that covers the trigger guard and practice your Trigger Discipline you will not have a problem. The ONLY way a gun goes off is by pulling the trigger. You can throw a gun up against the wall and it won’t discharge, however I don’t recommend doing that lol

Understood. I’m new to concealed carry, I actually just received my concealed carry license today. I picked up my carry gun Friday. Going to begin to put in range time and get set up with tach classes.

Just take the time and get used to carrying every day.

It takes a while to get used to it.

Shoot often and take as many classes as you can.

Make it muscle memory. Pure reaction.

When shit goes down your brain will seize up, but if you are well trained it will be on auto pilot.

What overload said. Take basic classes. Safety is ALWAYS first and should never leave your mind no matter how comfortable you get with your firearm. Get to know your firearm from top to bottom. From breaking it down, to cleaning to reassemble, Practice your draw stroke almost daily, in between range times, dry fire.

No joke. Carry that shit around your house, watching tv, standing/sitting/moving around. Get yourself comfortable with that thing around your waist, adjustments will have to be made. Like others have mentioned, get yourself a nice holster with 100% trigger coverage and nice adjustable retention.
