Thread: How many people CCW here?

I bounce between a Sig P938 SAS, a Ruger SR1911C, and a Walther PPS 9mm depending on the season and situation. All of them appendix carry, the p938 may get thrown in a boot or pocket on a very rare occasion. I think the next purchase will be an officers model 1911 with alloy frame to replace the Walther in the carry lineup. I love the walther and wont sell it but I would like to have cocked and locked across the board.

I recommend shooting a compact 1911, I honestly have picked up multiple pistols after aquiring my Kimber ultra raptor II and all sit in the safe because the accuracy isnt even remotely on par. I have a p938 as well and will probably be trading off all but 2 pistols, I only need my kimber, and 1 pistol for my wife who also has her ccdw, she likes her S&W .380 bodyguard. Plus I have a friend with a competition modified Remington 700 .308 im wanting to trade for lol.

I was at the range a few hours ago testing some magazines for my M9 & another guy there was having problems with his Sig P938 SAS,,, he said the dang guide rod worked loose & shot across the range floor,,,,

He called Sig & they told him to Loctite it,,,, so keep an eye on your guide rod.

Ive had a lot of feed problems out of my p938, I have to load my magazines 1 or 2 rounds shy of full or they try to pull the second round out of the mag with the first. I picked up an extended mag hoping it was a mag problem and it is still an issue. For a nearly $700 pistol I know I will never buy another Sig product.

All of the Kimber Ultra series are officer size (3" barrel and 7 round frame). It'll be a carry a lot, shoot enough gun.

I've packed mine for almost 10 years now off and on and the night sights are still strong, and still hits its target every time...I've had maybe 2 shells hang in it ever and it was crappy ammo, I assume it was just a crappy load plus dirty ammo combo but no biggie....been a lot of rounds through it and its still a sexy gun.

Dunno if this might help, but I recently picked up a Glock G-42 380, brand new. I had a lot of problems with feeding. The guy at the LGS took a look at it while I was in the range and figured out that the rounds I was having a problem with were very blunt. A more tapered bullet fed just fine. Also, I was loading the mag and releasing the slide with the slide lock release. He showed me that if I 'slingshotted' it, the increased momentum would chamber the round. Talking about the blunt bullets with little or no taper. Anyway .......

Probably because its a P938 guide rod & not a full size 1911 guide rod,,,,

More like a derringer I'm guessing lol
