Conceal carry on tight budget

[Chris L.]

CCW on a budget?

1. S&W 442, 642 or 638 + Blackhawk pocket holster = $375 to $475
2. Box of WWB .38spl+P SD ammo at Wally World = $25 to $30 for 50rds
3. Tuff Speed Strips/2pk = $6 to $8

Prices depend on your area, new/used, etc.

Supreme court ordered Illinois to draft a bill

The Supreme Court ruled on it? Last I heard, it had just been the circuit court. If the supreme court has upheld the lower court's decision, we have a precedent to make all states "shall-issue", not "may issue" if I understand the appellate court's official ruling, which officially stated that the Second Amendment makes carrying a firearm a right, not a privilege.

I know this is old, but I just bought a glock 23

It strikes me it might be better than a sharp stick.

I bought a pk380 for my first CCW, paid around $400 for it. Took me about a month to realize mine and my son's life was worth more than buying cheaply.
I traded it in on this. It caused me to go past due on a few bills, but i do not regret it in the slightest.

I would trust a Hi Point before I trust any Taurus. If that's all you got, carry it. I know people with several thousand rounds through their Hi Point without any problems. Other than the fact that they might make a good hammer or club, it's better than going unarmed.

Sell the Taurus and save for something else.

I agree if all you have is the c9 hi-point carry it. I tell people to carry what they trust and can shot well. Save and get yourself what you consider a better hand gun. any gun is better then no gun.
