delaware is an open carry state, can pretty much go to a store and buy a gun today if i wanted to. and we have a few ranges around here that will let you try guns before you buy. but i'm going to take a class that's right down the road from work. all the here guards recommend this place

You know thinking about next year and I may not have a say in this so I'm gonna throw this out there ! You could do a multi state event over about 5 days ! Spend a day or two in da UP and ride the lake tour ! Cross the Big Mac, Spend a day down state and see the northern part of mi. Pick up the ferry cross lake mi to wi spend a day or so in Milwaukee area then mosey then a night possibly in the twin cities! You wood cover a lot of territory and see a bunch of woods ! Just a thought !
If you guys hit the Twin Cities I might be able to get the WG all the way there.
looking to get my conceal carry permit but need to find the right gun, need something a little smaller in size and weight. i know how to shoot but have never owned a gun myself. my wife has her conceal carry but her glock is to heavy to carry on me, she carries it in her purse. reason for getting it now i because last saturday i was followed from walmart back to my mother's house by a recently released inmate while on my bike. he tried to get me to pull over,when i approached him he said he wanted me to sponser him in AA, but still this guy is a nut and a sex offender. So i think it's time i arm myself. any suggestions would be great
While I have a Sig Ultra compact in .45 acp, I tend to carry the Ruger LCR in .38 +p, light, easy to hide, just point and shoot and almost impossible to get to jam.
.38 +P is about the same as a 9mm, if more stopping power is desired, go with the LCR in .357 mag.
I carry mine in a OWB with a thumb break, we have open carry here and if I do need to conceal, a light shirt or jacket works well.

I don't think I have ever fired mine with the laser operating. I agree with Al, if ever I have to use it the last thing I wanna do is be worried about looking for a dot.

Does Glock have a single stack sub compact? If you already have a Glock it's good to stick with a family of firearms due to familiarity. Last thing you want to do is react on instinct and forget a new guns opperation, feel and ergonomics. Just something to think about.
