Concealed Carry/EDC

Kimber is adding new models to the company’s K6 series of revolvers for 2017. These compact handguns are built for everyday carry, concealed or on the hip.

Colt has a big announcement for 2017. The company is getting back into double-action revolvers starting with the new Colt Cobra.

The “if he’s in my house, he’s dead” crowd might not like to hear it, but if you can avoid having to shoot somebody, for God’s sake, don’t shoot.

Now that you know what features your wife or girlfriend wants in her concealed carry handgun (covered in Part I of this series), you’re ready to help her start looking.

The Performance Center Ported Shield in 9mm takes the highly popular Shield CCW pistol and adds numerous upgrades. Read on for the full review.

For those of us for whom carrying a 1911 for EDC is the right choice, the Kimber Ultra TLE II makes for a great choice. It is compact, reliable, powerful and downright beautiful.

There have been multiple efforts by companies to create guns in that same mold as the revered CZ-75, but few have come as close to bringing a solid version to market as TriStar. The best part of this effort is the notably affordable price of their offering here in the US. Say hello to the C100.
