The good old 19 always checks those boxes for me.
Yeah probably true. Still got to rent a few to try out. But first gonna do due diligence and find a way to conceal the XDM first.

Yeah, there's a place for small fries. I'm still looking for a cheap LCP for dress clothes and stuff.

If you're looking for good concealment, I've had great success with TT Gunleather. Tim does amazing work and I can conceal full size guns like my HK P30 with just a T shirt.

You'd be surprised how well mid sized autos conceal. I find mid sized guns to be the right balance between size and function. My Kimber Pro Carry in a Wilson iwb holster go under most shirts. I also carry a s&w stubby in a galco owb holster under untucked shirts or in my cargo shorts pocket.

Thanks for the info. Guess I've got a bit of work and experimenting to do with holsters.

I don't think the the Feds have the time, manpower, and willingness to track down IPs, cross reference, and seize guns. Whether or not they're online, they've gone through NICS checks and guns are already associated with names/addys. That and the fact that every local and federal agent I've talked to would light their badge on fire before helping in a seizure.

Save some tinfoil for the leftovers

Well I live in Texas, thus it has to be a bigger pistol. I carry the Taurus 454. It's so big all you have to do is pull it out and the bad guy will lose all body function and have a heart attack. I shoot 300gr hollow point that travels around 1650 fps.
:Cheers:
