Like I said, just curious. I have no beef with Glock, I'm carrying one now. My question was why OC a pistol so small that is seemingly made to conceal?

 

 

Not sure why he was offended with your question but OC is a bad idea no matter which pistol. All it does is advertise that you have a firearm. Some people do it for the "look at me" factor, just for attention. There is no reason for anybody to know you are carrying a firearm, ever.

FN 509 Midsize. Great Glock 19-size pistol. I'll be ordering the holster for it this week.

I carry a Glock 19 with the NIB-X coated slide and a Glock 42. Once the Glock 43 hits my store I'll be picking one of those up as well.

Relax, this is a forum,we ask questions and give advise. No need to get snippy or feel offended.

 

Open carry is a bad idea no matter what the size of the pistol. It advertises you have a firearm and makes you a potential target. Many people do it for attention, because they think it makes them look cool, or to prove a political point. hopefully that's not your goal.

HK9c or a 1911 .45 or a titanium Taurus .45 colt or a SW 19-4 .357. Depends on day and weather outside.

Glock 43 for summer carry, and M&P 45c for sweatshirt/jacket weather.

Depends on what I'm wearing. Light clothing eg. Shorts I carry my LCP. If I am dressed light or normal I carry my LC9, and if wearing a jacket or heavy clothing I carry my SR40c.

I choose to regulate weapon to what I'm wearing because I don't support Open carry as it causes to much worry and unrest by individuals who see it and I don't see the point of making someone feel unsafe. I know if I see a open gun my first thought isn't a good one. So I choose to conceal because I'm the only person who needs to know that I'm armed.

Started with a M&P 9 fullsize, changed to Taurus PT709 and now devide my carry with the M&P 9 and Magnum Research 1911G. If I was to OC would probably be the Pietta 45 Colt while not an original 45 Colt revolver, it is still pretty to look at in the leather holster and belt full of 45 Colt cartridges, but feel more comfortable CC when not at home. No need for extra attention from thugs and Gun Control Nazi's, especially with some of these groups promoting calling the police anytime they see a gun. I obey the laws and feel no reason to waste a LEO's time for lawfully carrying. As for the thugs, I'm happy not to be seen by them as I spend a considerable amount of time with them at work already.

I carry a Kel Tech 380, very small and light and easy to conceal, but carries a good punch.

      MPG at 600 miles

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65
