    Re: I carry a .45 because

    I am with you on the LCP. This is usually my pocket pistol but it takes some time to get use to shooting it. The Kimber comes with the Crimson grips on it. I have also been looking at the new Sig 380. It is a mini 1911 and a nice feeling and shooting gun.

    Sig Sauer is a great gun ! Their slogan says " 100% to hell and back reliability " And I believe it ! I have never had any kind of issue with mine. But you sure have to pay for that quality don't you? And since I am a big fan of the 1911 , I am going to have to check out their new .380 I might have to hide it from the wife though

    I agree that LCP does take some getting used too. After shooting Splitshots I decided against it...it's just not for me. I would love to shoot the LCR to see if it has a better feel. Anyone shoot one yet?

    Re: I carry a .45 because

    My first time out with the LCP I couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with it. Now that I'm used to the trigger, I'm alright. The trigger is funky, but I suppose that is the gun's only safety mechanism. Considering the trigger pull, I would not be afraid to carry it racked and ready. It would take an act of Congress to somehow trip that trigger in your pocket.

    None of those guns are tack drivers, but I'm confident that I could put some rounds center mass at a self-defense distance if the need ever arises.

    Great point man. It was easier to hit the target while watching the inset hammer. To be fair it isn't a target pistol and if it wasn't so hard you would end up like Plaxico who was just trying to help the little childrens...
