Frequently Asked Questions

Why are revolvers considered outdated for concealed carry?

Revolvers are often criticized for concealed carry due to their limited capacity (typically 5-7 rounds) and can be more difficult to shoot accurately compared to modern semi-automatic pistols, which offer higher capacities (e.g., up to 13 rounds in the S&W Shield Plus).

What is the main criticism of the Sig P365 SAS?

The primary issue with the Sig P365 SAS highlighted is its integrated, snag-free sight system, which is embedded in the slide. This design is considered less effective for aiming by the reviewer compared to traditional iron sights or optics found on other P365 models.

Which Glock models are discussed as potentially obsolete, and what are the recommended alternatives?

The Glock 42 (.380 Auto) and Glock 43 (9mm) are discussed as potentially obsolete. Recommended alternatives include the Glock 43X for better capacity or the Glock 26 for its compatibility with magazines from larger Glock pistols.

How does the S&W Equalizer improve upon the Shield EZ?

The S&W Equalizer retains the easy-to-rack slide feature of the Shield EZ but significantly improves upon it by utilizing Shield Plus magazines, thereby offering a much higher ammunition capacity for concealed carry.
