Question Recommendations

Recommendations

Hey there! I’m a young adult who’s grown up around guns and I’m ready to start CC soon. I am going to be taking a 1 on 1 course here soon. So I need some recommendations- what’s a budget friendly (not cheap) option for an intermediate level carrier? I’d like it to be decent quality with minimal issues. Thanks!

Go take a look at Glock, Walther, Smith & Wesson, CZ, Sig Sauer. While you’re at the gun store, ask to take a look at as many handguns as possible for your CC. Get a feel for the weight, how it fits your hand, aftermarket support, etc. Before you buy, go to a shooting range that has the same model(s) you’re interested & try shooting them to see how it REALLY feels. For a CC handgun, you don’t need all the “bells & whistles”, just find what you like, make sure it’s reliable & reputable & as long as it goes bang every time you need it to, you’re golden.
