If you follow the thread, you`ll find a story about familial trash being ticked at their little Thuggie Brown being shot, but he survived five hits! What`s your best compromise between concealment versus stopping power. And how would climate effect your choice?

Mine has so far been the Bersa Thunder Plus, hi firepower at 15+1, however anemic 380. To compensate I try to carry +P, during the summer it`s frangible and winter is hollow point or cast flat nose.

Colt M1991A1 .45 APC. I open carry so concealing it does not figure in.

Most folks will say a .45acp is the choice, but I think most calibers coupled with lots of range time/practice is the key...

Not familiar with the Glock series, I don`t like DA only. Is that concealable?

I have a Ruger LCR .357 revolver. I don’t carry it off our property though. The .357 is about the minimum you’d want if you meet a wild hog head on.

In no particular order:
CZ-82 in 9mm Makarov
Ruger SP-101 in .357
Colt Commander in .45 ACP.
Charter Arms Bulldog in .44 Spl.
Depends on clothing and weather conditions.

Are those CCW designed? Was thinking the Beretta PX4 Storm in subcompact in 9mm. The local Gander Mountain has some in stock and they are sweet little CCW designs. The drop down finger platform is a bit weird but I guess I cold get used to it.

That sounds like a challenge, you down south or TX? Out west they got Peccaries, heard they`re mean little bass-turds.

38 snub, +p. Light, always there, and settling accounts for many many years. And as for surviving 5 hits, most were arm hits till the last few in the head.

Short of a 12 ga with slugs, or a LAWS rocket, there is no such thing as stopping power in a pistol.
Shot placement is key.
The case of M Brown shows multiple hits can do nothing to stop a determined, hopped up, individual.

Climate change has had a major effect on my CCW choices. Just yesterday as I was enjoying an intimate moment with my ankle-holstered backup .50 Desert Eagle my tongue got stuck and I had to spend twelve minutes in the Hemingway position with a 1700W hair dryer.
