Ideal Non-Polymer CCW Pistols

[Armadillofz1]

I carry 18-20 hours a day. Weight and reliability are paramount. So for me nothing in your parameters applies to me. I have to vote polymer.

*edit*

Can't say none i guess, so FEW parameters.

 

[SRD]

These are based on what I've actually handled/carried/own;

VZ 50

Model 60

Browning BDA

P64

nothing in .40

Colt Officer

 

[-Z/28-]

A Makarov and a S&W Model 39 both come to mind. Both rugged compact single stack semi autos.

 

[sbmike]

Odd man out by I kinda like my Micro Desert Eagle .380. Definitely disappears in a pocket, even when in a pocket holster.

 

[poppop02]

Sig P232

 

[Blaster229]

Wishful thinking on your part??


*I have no suggestions, all my carry pieces are primarily polymer.

Eh, my eyes. I was reaching into a pile of speer 9mm to load it and the other speer was in there somehow. Boy that shell neck is ever so slight. LOL

 

[Marauder]

Smith&Wesson Model 642.

 

[august1410]

Colt Detective Special/Cobra/Agent.

Six rounds in a package about the same size as a j frame Smith and Wesson.

Original Charter Arms Bulldog. A little stout, but a concealable 5 shot .44 Special makes quite a statement.

Colt Defender is a great, concealable .45 ACP

 

[SCARCQB]

Sig 239 , kahr9,and beretta 84( 380 )

My walther ppk is a pos.

I like your choice of CZ50!

 

[thegoose]

Colt mustang.

 

[fivepointstar]

kahr?

I have to Admit Kahr makes a very slim and affordable pistol

 

[fivepointstar]

P64 is about the only thing I have non polymer. No love for the Shield?

P64 if you change out the trigger

the shield is a poly

how about other caliberes

 

[C&RTactical]

CZ-82 for 9x18 and .380
P64's are good I have not heard any problems with them.
I hear great things about S&W J-Frames so you really cannot go wrong with those.

Off topic, since this is a polymer gun, but I would say the S&W Shield. It is the gun I always carry. If I did not or could not carry my G19 or 1911 I carry the Shield always.

 

[Kman]

How about a Seacamp for .32 or maybe even .380?

 

[SRD]

Hey Guys

And I read the instructions.

 

[Ironnewt]

S&W J-frame old or new.

My walther ppk is a pos.

Is it a home grown or import?

 

[SRD]

Colt mustang.

Having never handled one,I think I could swap my BDA for that.
