Pistol Packin’ Perfection

No doubt, smaller guns are easier and more comfortable to carry, making it more likely you’ll strap on your shooter! Climate, clothing and itinerary are some of the things taken into consideration when choosing our concealed carry piece for the day.

Mind you, it’s best to carry the largest gun you can comfortably carry, chambered in the largest caliber you shoot accurately. Sometimes it’s not practical to lug a full-size Roscoe … and a sub-compact like the 911 chambered in 9mm makes sense.
