I need a gun!

Hungadunga.

Nope. One was name Hundadunga.
Cheap imitation? Your guess is as good as mine...

I prefer to take my legal advice from Dewey, Cheatem and Howe.

Larsen E. Whipsnade is desolated; moving to Philadelphia, where he's rather be, on the whole.

He should have stayed away from Reno:

Tu necesitas Bob Loblaw. Pero, el no habla español.

 

[RFBfromDE]

You've left out a Hungadinga. You've left out the main one, too.

And misspelled. I should be sentenced to a life with Margaret Dumont.

Wait a minute...

 

[BradMacc82]

You and I have both carried our 1908 Vest Pockets. I got the holster you have.

The little bugger is just a convenient size to toss in a pocket, or old cell phone holster...

I just got approved for my W&C and applied for the HQL. Not sure if I filed correctly for the HQL since I didn't upload any documentation. All I did was file Permit Exempt and gave them my permit number.

Now I need to look for a gun. I was thinking micro 9 and/or a pocket gun. In the micro 9 side, I was originally set on getting a Canik MC9, but with it being a new gun and all the recent quality issues, I'm leaning away from it. Because of that, I was think P365 or a Shield Plus. What are your thought?

As for a pocket carry gun, I was thinking a small rim fire .22 that would hold 10 rounds or possibly a Ruger LCP II in .380. Haven't really look into this much.

What's everyone's recommendations?

Thanks!

I just got a Springfield hellcat, I love it

 

[Robert heatterich]

I would go to your local gun range and try out rent a Sig p365x or a Glock 43x then buy them both

 

[outrider58]

Still have yet to meet anyone willing to take a mag of .25 to the chest…, just saying…

Are there better options, absolutely. Have I been known to carry one as a last resort option, yup. (Still a step above strong words and a pointy stick)

I've got a nice little Beretta, if you ever find that volunteer...

I have a penchant for the little old pocket guns in 25acp - mine's been in the family since 1919, and I still exercise it regularly.

Blows people away when you can hit silhouettes at 50+ yards with a mouse gun, but that's more for fun than any practical purpose if I'm honest.

Buy both of those in the respective X variant is somewhat redundant . Get one of them in the original smallest variant to be better for ever pocket carrying .

I carry a shield plus with night sights. Optics ready. I grabbed a Pearce pinky extension for the 10 rd mag and fits perfectly and still doesn't print in a tshirt. 13 rd mag for colder weather clothes season. Also accepts the larger capacity s&w equalizer mags. No need for swapping out grip modules. Go shoot all of them and see what you like.

I ordered the original P365. Still looking at the Shield plus

how do you go about the whole process? I was looking up how to apply for an HQL and from what I understood you gotta go get finger prints done and go take a gun safety course?

Did you just get your W&C permit? If so it's free, no additional training needed, and no additional set of prints. Instructions for this path are on MSI's website. I recommend becoming a member while you're there if you're not already:

Maryland Wear and Carry Permits

Last updated 11/28/2023We've brought a lawsuit against the enforcement of parts of SB 1 and other current carry restrictions. Learn about Novotny v. Moore here. See our guide here for how newly enacted laws affect your right to keep and bear arms.IntroductionPermit EligibilityTrainingApplication...

If you don't have the W&C, yes, you'll need to get prints and take the HQL course if you're not exempt from the training. There are a number of threads on here covering that pathway.

so if I plan to get my W&C I essentially will get my HQL? If I don't need the HQL class and fees I will just go to the W&C class as long as it allows me to buy a handgun any time I want I will just get my W&C, I do already have my collectors so I am exempt from the 30 day wait just have to do the 7 day.

That is correct. Once you have an approved W&C permit (not just the class; as that alone doesn't get you an HQL, let alone a free one), the HQL becomes essentially a free add on after the W&C permit approval is received.

awesome because I took a hunter safety course years ago, I can't find the papers but gun safety is so engraved in my brain from being around guns my entire life to the point my finger is unintentionally off the trigger of a water gun, and it would be redundant if I had to take an HQL class just to be approved for a W&C and the ability to buy a handgun at any time.
Thank you for saving me $150 on the HQL class and 4 hours.

Holy run on sentence, Batman. Hunter safety is not an exemption for the W&C. You'll be spending more for the W&C course as it is 16 hours, but will have the ability to carry and would essentially get a free HQL at the end of the process though. HQL course has no bearing on a Wear and Carry (W&C) permit. This does save the redundancy of the HQL requirements, which I think is what you were getting at. I've been chilling with some bourbon at the fire pit for the last few hours, so my reading comp may be a bit off at the moment, so don't infer as an attempt to snipe.
