With concealed carry legal in most of free parts of the country and more and more options for concealed carry pistols out there – we’re selling more small concealable firearms than ever. Here’s a rundown of a few of the guns we sell the most and what’s driving consumers to buy them. SIG SAUER P365 […]
Not too long ago, we posted an article (by me!) about carrying or keeping a gun with a round in the chamber. Long story short, I let it be known that I thought carrying with an empty chamber is a mistake. Some folks in the comments section raised objections, as they are often wont to […]
There are some definite signs that you have the wrong concealed carry gun. Granted, much of what makes for the right concealed carry gun or a good concealed carry gun is totally subjective. Much of what makes the right concealed carry gun is totally down to what’s right for YOU. Plenty of folks carry a […]
Some people carry different concealed carry guns during different seasons. Once summer comes around, they tend to scale down to something smaller and lighter, then bulk up for winter. You’ll find plenty of people packing a Shield or G43 when it’s hot, then gear up to something like a GLOCK 17 or 1911 pistol when […]
Trouble can happen anywhere at any time. That’s why millions of Americans have carry licenses and tote a firearm every day. Ironically, non-permissive environments quite often serve as the locations in which people most need to carry. Take, for instance, Disneyland in Anaheim, California. A recent incident at Mickey’s West Coast theme park shows that […]
Before we get into whether you can or should carry a non-lethal weapon in a gun-free zone, know that this isn’t legal advice, we aren’t lawyers and we didn’t stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night. I also have found that you definitely DON’T save fifteen percent or more by switching to GEICO. In […]
Over at Everyday Carry, one can peruse what other people carry in their pockets on a daily basis. We feature one of those pocket dumps each and every evening right here at TTAG. It’s interesting to see how others approach packing – both a gun and other accessories for their daily lives. While you see […]
By Travis Pike The first day I carried a gun I was absolutely terrified that someone would see it. I was freaking out that someone would ‘make’ me. I constantly readjusted my clothing and always worried about the gun slipping and showing, and of course, I worried about printing. Printing is the outline of the holster and […]
A while ago, there was a list of some great pocket pistols options if you’re inclined toward a small .380 ACP pistol for concealed carry and/or self-defense. Here are a few more. Before we get started, a few things must be mentioned. First, make sure you get a gun you can (and will) actually train […]
Reader W.B. Reimer writes: I read yesterday’s post on realistic CCW training and wanted to say how timely this was, since I inadvertently “triggered” someone online today by posing a question about his choice of EDC. He carries a GLOCK 43, a spare mag, one of those little pocket revolvers in .22 magnum and a […]
By Johannes Paulsen I read about too many negligent discharges involving re-holstering a handgun without sufficient brain engagement. Too many gun owners seem to take the process for granted or speed through it and don’t pay attention to what they’re doing. That can lead to embarrassment, pain or worse. Don’t let this happen to you. To some, […]
By NRA-ILA Governor Ron DeSantis signed SB-7030 within hours after receiving it. SB-7030 contains the language that authorizes local school boards to allow classroom teachers to go through training and carry firearms on school campuses. News reports suggested that “Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America” and another Bloomberg group, “Students Demand Action for […]
