Serious reply. May say "gun" to you, as it does to me. We are not the average public. I have worn mine with a .45 XDS for a couple of months and have had no issues. If this is open carry enough to defer a bad guy, then so be it. He doesn't bother me, then I go about my day. It is...

There is just too much at stake. If you have to draw, any safety can be undone during that action. All around just good.

Ok, I'll bite. How is drawing from your belt any riskier than leaning back, straightening your leg, acting like you are having a seizure, to draw your gun? Get one. You will find it is very comfortable and accessible. They look good too. Next best thing to open carry.

Who says a neighborhood patrol is "playing cop"? You have the ability to make the decision to be involved or not, and if being armed in Texas in a patrol is illegal, then don't be in it. You have total control over your actions and if you can and want to be involved in an area where you can be...

No better outcome could have happened by any other actions. Period.

Get a Sneaky Pete holster and carry in plain sight. If you are in a booth in a restaurant, you can be ready if approached without hardly moving. I love mine.

My first point is, I guess I don't get Photoman 44's point. Anyone shooting someone while on neighborhood patrol whether as part of a watch group or walking their dog, will come under scrutiny. Just because citizen patrols may be CCW holders does not mean it is the wild west. If they report...

Thoughts? I just picked up a 380 Bodyguard with an insight laser. I know this is a S&W forum. I compared the two. The S&W was a few dollars cheaper (not a decision maker on it's own) but with the thumb safety and the built in double strike capability, I chose it over the Ruger. Don't get...

With a new (August) CCW, I picked up a S&W 380 Bodyguard two days ago as a companion to my Springfield XDS.

Springfield XDS S&W 380 Bodyguard Taurus 651 w/ a button hammer so I still have that single action option. Colt series 80 Officers model From 45 to 380, top to bottom, with a 357 Mag taking up the middle ground.

MD and IL must be related!

In Nebraska, we have this handgun background check card. You go to the Sherrifs office, apply, pay your $5 and wait a week. Once you have the card, you can purchase handguns and walk out the store with them. Without it, there is a waiting period. If you have a CCW, that takes the place of the...

New pic since last visit. Shoots where you point it. Groups really well. No regrets. S&W nicest auto handgun I own.

This thing has come around in a hurry. Took it and my Springer out the other weekend and compared to this S&W my Springer is spraying all over the place. Has spent a week at the gunsmiths, and am shooting it today. He says it should be better. This Smith is right on and consistant. I...
