Re: Advice in picking out right gun/pistol for my needs

I cant add much too what has been said. I would think a hammerless revolver could be the answer. Concealment on a bike is the problem. Hard to holster due to wind bowing your shirt or jacket up (had this happen once). If you weat a vest or jacket most of the time, look for one with an inner pocket. My vest and light jacket both have an inner pocket and When I wear my heavy jacket I have the vest on over it. These pockets will, in most cases, hold a full size auto. I carry a 1911 or XD45.

Then there are the pocket guns. As stated above, the P3AT is an effective choice but very uncomfortable to shoot. I am a large man and it flat hurts my trigger finger to shot it. But my wife is small in stature and it does not bother her as much. The problem with a pocket pistol is accessability. If you wear protective pants or chaps, it is difficult to get to a pocket pistol.

But above all, get something you feel comfotable shooting and carrying. Try several before you buy.

Good luck, welcome to the forum, and keep the rubber side down.
