Hi all,
I have been hanging around the site over the past month...great resource! My wife and I are both waiting for our liscences...hopefully the mailman will bring them in the next few weeks!!!
We are both looking for carry guns. At least that is my current thinking. I have a 4.25" 1911. I am assuming it will be a lot of gun to carry, especially in the warmer months with lighter clothing. Am I on track with my thinking? Or will the 1911 disappear in a good IWB holster? With shorts and a polo shirt?
My wife has been trying/picking up/looking at a lot of smaller 9mm guns. Recoil from a small pocket sized 9 hasn't been an issue for her. Heck, she shoots my 1911 better than I do...she just complains that it is such a heavy gun. She really likes the sig 938...although she hasn't shot it yet. Hoping to get to shoot one soon. She is also looking at the M&P Shield and the Kahr CM 9. Is she headed down the right road? She will likely carry with a belly band holster a majority of the time.
I am anxious to gear up so we are ready. However, I don't want to go spend $$$$ on what i THINK will work only to find out that reality dictates something different. I am looking for you all's opinions since there seem to be a lot of folks with CC experience.
Thanks in advance!
