thanks for the info, ill check into those products. i've heard good things about the Crossbreed Supertuck.

Once I actually get my CHL, this is what I plan to carry. It a S&W M&P 9c and it'll be loaded with Remington Golden Spear JHP

Very nice. I keep Hornady Tap in mine.

My younger bro is thinking about a PT145 Pro for a secondary. Got me interested in them. Are you happy with it for the price?

not sure who you are asking,,but i am very pleased with mine. so far i've put about 300 rounds through it with not a single problem....once you get familiar with the sights, you can get pretty tight groups. even with double taps and rapid fire.
only cost me $ 349.00 with stainless slide.

For the price it is a good gun and very accurate, too. Light enough to carry, and the weight is balanced enough that there's very little muzzle flip. I just couldn't adjust to the sights or to the trigger (wheelguns and 1911s have me spoiled), and I wasn't willing to have pistols with mixed sight types where I'd have to think on the fly about sight picture.

That's just me, though. I know lots of people swear by their 145s, and I'd trust their judgment. The guy I sold mine to is very happy with it.

Over 400 trouble free rounds in my 145. It makes a very nice carry piece IMO. If my plastic ever gets here....I'll be carrying mine daily.

Here's what I will be carrying, once my plastic arrives.

I do currently carry around the house with it however :)

Here is my Daily carry....

A Dan Wessson CBOB In a Comp Tac MTAC (not pictured) with old fashioned Federal Hydra Shoks....

Wilson Mags (the finest mags on at least the first 3 planets)...

Tagua holster is only used at the range, family gatherings, mowing the lawn or around the house...




I also carry a .380 with Hornady Critical Defense (when I need something really small or lightweight or when other guns are at the Smithy.....)

Agreed on that. I have 2 currently, going to pick up a few more. They're the only ones I trust completely.

not everyday

Hey Rmartin, looks like you have both of the guns I'm considering for my next CHL pistol purchase - a baby Glock or a Walther PPS .... I posted a discussion thread to get feedback on these two guns ... http://www.texasshooting.com/TexasCHL_F ... 23&t=24072" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Would love to know your thoughts on pro & cons of each.

Thanks

Show-off!

This will be my daily carry if/when my permit ever comes in...
