[QUOTE="willnotgoquietly, post: 997331, member: 9416"] Hi I had a charter and sold it. Sent it back twice before I gave up. Didn't go bang every time. Have an LCP and a Glock 19. Carry the 19 90% of the time. For me when I first started carrying the LCP seemed perfect, very light, small, ok power. The more I shot it and held it the more I understood that a self defense tool needs to be big enough and sturdy enough to fight with. The little guns are just very hard to hold on to on a good day let alone your worst day. The Glock 19 is just so much easier to get on target. If you get a good holster like a supertuck with two belt clips the extra weight and size of the bigger weapon will not be an issue. Try drawing the little guns quickly [unloaded !] a few times and you may see that the man size hand needs something more to hold onto. On price: I've wasted twice the cost of a good gun on a slightly cheaper gun. Don't waste your money on an ok brand. If you get a wheel gun get a S&W. If you get an automatic, Glock 26 or 19, an M&P compact or an XD in 9mm would be a sold choice. On Printing. Don't worry about it so much. It has been discussed on this forum a few times, but as long as the thing is covered with a shirt I don't think you will have an issue. No one cares or even remotely notices a bump under your shirt. Good luck on your purchase. Like most of us have found out, there is no "one" carry weapon. For me the LCP is my front pocket weapon with dress paints and shirt tucked in, the Glock the rest of the time. J [/QUOTE]
