I think carrying a G19 because you're afraid of a terrorist attack in NH is kind of crazy but maybe I'm just not operator enough. On the other hand, when I used to commute into Boston, my biggest concern was some homeless guy on the street or a junkie lurking in the parking garage, while still having to conceal in business casual or losing my job - pocket snubnose was perfect for that. In the city in general I feel like a pocket gun makes sense because you can have your hand already on it and still walk around without arousing any suspicion.
Don't get me wrong, I prefer carrying more gun than less, but some of you are seemingly equating the revolver to a rape whistle.
I think carrying a G19 because you're scared of a terrorist attack is crazy too, not my preferred choice against dudes with AKs or some crazy shit like that, but its the perfect balance of firepower and concealability on my operator physique, and i usually have a long gun within short reach if i really need to go full threetard. Im not in NH all the time, i travel for work often, but even if i were strictly in NH it wouldn't seem crazy to me to be prepared for the worst while expecting the best. Isnt that what we all do every day as people who choose to carry? Nobody in Sandy Hook CT was expecting Adam Lanza to shoot up the elementary school, nobody will be expecting a pair of jihadis to walk into any random
****ing school in the US and easily quadruple Lanzas bodycount, something im surprised hasnt happened yet but im sure the day is coming. Like i said before if your biggest concern is Diante and his boys hurting your feels by shaking you down for $100 cash and your credit card then by all means carry your LCP/LCR/Bodyguard, but i prefer have the capability to be the check on the next psycho who thinks he can gun down a bunch of kids if i just happen to be working accross the street from whatever target he picks. Im not big on the "sheepdog concept", personally i dont really care how many mindless people who choose to be unarmed, or underarmed, these psychos mow down on their next spree, to me its more of a "
**** you, you think you can get away with this? Murdering innocent unarmed people, lets see what you got" kind of thing. Maybe im just a big dick alpha operator wannabe, idk, but either way your j-frame sucks and so do all the excuses. A glock 26 is 10x more gun than a jframe and just as concealable, if your going for the "im not an' operator' so i choose to carry a j-frame" hipster thing then i got you, rock on with your bad self, but dont try to pass it off as being just as good/all youll ever need, because it might not be, because time and time again these events happen where we're least expecting them to, and nobodys ever there to take the violence to these
****s, well if im ever put in the situation and i can, i plan to. You can call 911 on your cellphone as you run away with your hand on your sweatpants pocket jframe.
