SIG 232, a little pricey though.

Agreed. See my post here. We think it's the ideal carry gun. As for price, yes it is pricey. On the other hand, a Benz is pricier than a Chevy.

If I were to carry one of the ultralights, I'd practice live fire with my P226 stainless in 9mm, and mostly dry fire the junior to reinforce its working characteristics. Then again, if I can't shoot one box of ammo in one session, then it's not for me. IMO

The fact is that CCW holders are arrested at a lower rate than cops or clergymen.

Remember that people need to practice with the arm they carry, and a weapon that's unpleasant to shoot won't be shot for practice much. That precludes the Airweight, and IMHO, just about all the snubby revolvers.

Ditto that. I almost never shoot .357 in my Ruger. I punch paper with .38 spl.

Apparently moving out of state also lands you in the "revoked" category...

Good point. That is another example of why I'd be curious as for the reasons for revocations.

I'd recommend the CZ P-01.

I'll second that recommendation and add a nod to the CZ RAMI for an even smaller package.

It's very common on FR to include several folks in responses on the same topic.

Almost went with the RAMI, AJ, but got a good deal on a barely used P-01.
My new CZ-97 arrived the other day: glossy blue! `04, dealer had trouble locating. Beeyootiful piece but haven't been able to shoot it yet.
Fawn, I buy from an established gun dealer. You know where to find him if you need him.

(Just as I take my children to a reputable tattoo parlor ;-)

Two words: Purse Snatcher.

Find somewhere else to hide your gun. :-P

Good choice, but I like the earlier PCR model and the XD45 for winter carry (the CZ-97's grip is just toooo big).

I have big hands, but you're right--I still prefer the trigger in single action mode. It's a big boy, heavy, too, with the steel frame and loaded magazine.
I ordered a vertical shoulder holster from Ross. Do you have any recommendations for SOB carry? Some mfrs don't even make for CZs.

Sorry, can't help with SOB. I use a FIST K1 or K7 IWB.

Thanks. I've heard others recommend FIST, will check out.
I've got a Bianchi back holster for my hi-power I really like, but they don't make for CZ.

The law requires sheriffs, whose offices issue the licenses, to suspend the license of anyone arrested or charged with certain crimes, including any felony, drug offense or domestic-violence offense. A court-issued protection order against the license-holder also results in suspension.

So a false accusation of domestic abuse from a bitter spouse going through a divorce will result in suspension.

A false accusation of domestic abuse from a bitter spouse in a divorce will result in you *losing your right to own firearms, period, without a fair trial* - see US v. Emerson. This is Federal law, and Ohio is just mirroring that.

Thank Chuckie Schumer for that one.

I sell guns in South Florida. I think you are way out of my area, so I don't expect a sale, but Freepmail me.

Like they're not interchangeable...
(You're right, of course - Schumer did support it, though.)
