Frequently Asked Questions

What are the reliability differences between Glock 20 and Glock 17?

The speaker considers both the Glock 20 (10mm) and Glock 17 (9mm) to be highly reliable, stating he has never experienced a single failure with either model. This contrasts with his experience with the Glock 29, which he found to have significant magazine-related feeding issues.

Is .380 ACP effective for self-defense against body armor?

For self-defense against soft body armor at 30 yards, .380 ACP is generally not considered effective. While it can hit targets, rounds like .357 Magnum and 10mm are significantly more capable of penetrating body armor at similar or closer distances.

What are the advantages of stainless steel revolvers for concealed carry?

Stainless steel revolvers are advantageous for concealed carry because their finish is essentially the base metal. This means minor scratches can be easily buffed out without damaging a blued finish, maintaining the firearm's appearance and integrity over time.

What is the speaker's preferred barrel length for concealed carry revolvers?

The speaker prefers a 2.5-inch barrel length for concealed carry revolvers, citing comfort and avoiding hip rubbing. While 3-inch barrels are also considered good, and 4-inch barrels offer better sight radius, the 2.5-inch length provides the best balance for his personal carry experience.

What is the speaker's opinion on national reciprocity for concealed carry permits?

The speaker supports national reciprocity, believing that if passed as federal law, it would override state laws. This would mean a valid concealed carry permit from one state would be recognized in all other states, simplifying cross-state carry for permit holders.
