I carry a S & W .38 airweight revolver. I keep it in my front pocket in a little pocket holster so it will not print.
Looking for 6 democrats?...
I like revolvers, but I need something super concealable, so I went with the LCP.
I used to carry a .357 Ruger Speed Six loaded with Cor-Bon +p 110 gr. .38 Special. If your revolver is rated for +p rounds, that’s the best one there is.
That’s cute. Something a mom might be able to carry in her purse?
Isn't he a swell guy?
LOL. It's funny you should say that, because when I got the LCP, I gave my mom my revolver, but she wants the LCP instead.
Ha, ha. Good for you for looking out for your mom. I can see why she wants it. Women like compact, cute stuff. Could it take care of business too?
if your first line of defense is a call to the police you are a fool
The LCP is chambered for .380 ACP, which I'd say is marginal. It's tha absolute bare minimum that I'd rely on for personal defense. But if you want ultra-concealability, you're going to have to give up some stopping power.
Considering, however, that 90% of personal defense situations are resolved with no shots being fired--the perp craps his pants and runs as soon as he sees a gun--even a pellet gun would be adequate most of the time.
Denver was a dangerous place sixty years ago. When we lived there in 1953 my dad always locked his car doors but still had a .32 stolen out of it one night.
I like revolvers because I consider them safer to carry. You have to use some effort to fire them. I'm afraid I would shoot myself with a semi-automatic (though I did use one for my concealed carry class so I have that option if I change my mind). I seldom wear jeans because the pockets of jeans are too tight to easily draw a pistol.
Try an automatic with a double-action trigger. The LCP has one of those and I feel safe with it. I even carry it IWB with one in the chamber.
I agree with you about single-action automatics, though. I would never carry one of those.
I can’t either. It would have been nice if someone had been able to take them out that night. I doubt they will ever have an epiphany and become decent citizens.
I didn’t get to hear all of P. Boyles interview, did the surveillance cameras catch the license plates of any of the animals??
Yes. It must've been caused by white racism. Just like black on Asian violence. And black on American Indian violence. And black on pretty much everyone on earth violence.

Is that cute enough for you?
The Denver cops can’t show up quickly because they are out beating citizens themselves....
