Kind of OT but.... My CHL instructor thought that carrying of different guns for different seasons could lead to being out of practice with a gun you haven't carried in awhile. For you folks that use one gun in the summer and a different gun in the winter, do you practice with both all throughout the year, a little bt before switching, or not at all? Does it take long to get used to the feel of a different gun when you've been carrying one for awhile?40khammer wrote:Just thought I'd update my EDC. I purchased a S&W SD40 and have placed it into my EDC in place of my 380. I'll still carry my .380 on days I don't want to carry the full size .40, but for now I'm opting for the higher caliber.[/img]

Ugh, no, the .380 is not cheap to shoot. Unless you buy in bulk, maybe.. I own 2, .380's and almost cringe when I go buy ammo for them. I don't see why they're much more expensive than let's say.. a 9mm. I always consider buying .45 ammo opposed to .380. Just more fun to shoot, and prolly a dollar more for ammo.40khammer wrote:RottenApple wrote:40khammer wrote:
Besides the .380 is fun and cheap to shoot. :p
Let me rephrase. The .380 is cheap to shoot in my town. I pay around $11 a box at my local gun store.68Charger wrote:Ugh, no, the .380 is not cheap to shoot. Unless you buy in bulk, maybe..

I got to hold an LC9 the other day and I have to say, I'm impressed. How's it shoot?surferdaddy wrote:My credit card wallet, benchmade and new LC9. I recently upgraded from my TCP, wanted a little more wallop and to be honest, I have big mitts and that little 380 got lost in them. Still have the taurus though, good shootin little gun. I also have a S&W 645, I love it but it is a bit too big to comfortably carry for me. Honestly, I was going to go IWB for the LC9 but being a bigger dude, 6'1" 225, I am finding that it slips into my front pocket very well.
