Thread: CCW in business attire

    Re: CCW in business attire

    Yeah. No double taps with a magnum...especially the .44 mag; ugh. The triggers on revolvers are heavy and some will actually hang an then break which screws up my concentration. I usually shoot a revolver with the hammer pulled back. that way it is already ready to break. I do enjoy the process of opening, emptying and loading the cylinder of a revolver. It's like driving a standard transmission vehicle. I feel like I'm more a part of experience. Not only that, but the younger crowd at the range usually sports an auto loader. They smirk at my revolver (usually a .44 mag) until it fires the first time. Then their heads duck and shoulders jerk with a start. It gives me a certain smothered glee to give the other guys a jolt.

    i have a galco skyops for my Sig 229 and it works well for concealment in a button down, but it does print somewhat in a polo. for light duty, i still have my Bersa Series 95 380 (like a cross between a Walther PPK and Sig 232 - nice little gun for "pocket" carry).

    See, now I have no beef with a .44 mag at all. It's big, it's mean, and it's simply bad-ass.

    Perhaps I'll get one of those too, are they hard to conceal

    Hehe. Well that depends upon your natural 'endowments'. If folks are accustomed to seeing young David with an ample...uh....prowess, then the sight of a rigid barrel half way down the ol' crotchal area won't put anyone at alarm. But if young David is notoriously groinally challenged then a protuberant stiffness would be suspicious to say the least....

    On the flip side of that is you're training yourself to hold onto the brass. If you ever have to use a revolver your natural motion will be to eject the rounds into your hand nicely rather than use that time for a reload.

    Not that I don't do the same thing...

    True, but I never carry a revolver for protection.

    What I really want is caseless ammo....
