Give serious consideration to the Smith & Wesson M&P Shield 9mm for your concealed carry choice. However, it's a decision that only you can make. When I started looking at handguns back in April of this year I had only shot a friends S&W .40 a couple of years before; prior to that was a Colt .380 I had in the mid-80's and prior to that qualified on a Colt .45 Auto in the Navy. I spent hours at gun stores holding various ones looking for the one that "felt" right. The Shield felt good, then a buddy let me shoot his Shield and I was convinced it was the right choice for me.K5CLC wrote:I know it's soon, but as of 12/13/2016 I'm still waiting but it's only been 3 weeks.
My hope it before Christmas for my license to be fully approved and printed. Yes, I've been studying every bit of literature, and watching every youtube video available on holsters, everyone's opinion of the best carry weapon. I want to stay in 9mm, and not go down to 380 if possible but several people (even law enforcement) has recommended a pocket 380 for a best concealed carry option. While I wait, I'm saving my pennies for those purchases as well.
