Sisco Posted September 2, 2018 Report Posted September 2, 2018 Found a Smith and Wesson M and P subcompact in 9mm for $349 and one with a built in laser for $449. Thoughts about the pistol, and are those good deals? Need a smaller warm weather cc firearm.
98Z5V Posted September 2, 2018 Report Posted September 2, 2018 Solid deal, right there. With or without laser. I'd go laser, on that small bastard.
edgecrusher Posted September 2, 2018 Report Posted September 2, 2018 I like the Glock 43. I wear an IWB holster and use Vickers plus extensions on my mags. Great shooter and can go t and shorts and still not print

sketch Posted September 2, 2018 Report Posted September 2, 2018 43 is edc. added tritium sights over a laser. it works damn good.
Sisco Posted September 2, 2018 Author Report Posted September 2, 2018 Looking on the cheap, but will check out the Glock 43

No, I carry 3 o’clock, every time all the time. It’s there at work and at home. That way when everything goes to hell my training and muscle memory knows where to go without thinking.

Well, if you had taken care of that hernia sooner, you wouldn't have the swollen leather balls. It helps to wear looser underwear too. The banana hammock sorta adds complication to that issue. Don't complicate shiit with complicated shiit. Edited September 3, 2018 by DNP

jtallen83 Posted September 3, 2018 Report Posted September 3, 2018 Had to scroll back up and read again I have only handled the M&P, never shot it. The price looks good compared to what I see at the LGS. I would also recommend the laser, not so much as a sighting device but mostly as a training aide. I love the way a laser can show your trigger pull issues when dry firing.
Sisco Posted September 4, 2018 Author Report Posted September 4, 2018 (edited) Ended up with the standard M and P 9 with the 3.5 inch barrel. Fits my hand nice and nice and slim. Like the Alien Gear IWB holsters, so going to try one out. Just needs a little work on the safety a little rough. Edited September 5, 2018 by Sisco
Sisco Posted September 5, 2018 Author Report Posted September 5, 2018 Ended up ordering a “We the people” IWB holster. $34.99 on sale, free shipping. Along with a belly band for when I am in beltless gym shorts.

I hope you used the "DAN" code on that. If not, you can use it in the future...

Sisco Posted September 6, 2018 Author Report Posted September 6, 2018 My fingers are a shade too short to palm a basketball. The only thing that kept me from dunking in my youth. I could touch the rim, but couldn’t control the ball. Now, if I really let loose when I jump, you can slide a credit card under my heels.

I got you beat Sisco, I can almost jump over an extension cord, but only if it is not round, but one of them yellow flat ones!
