I like my 365! Needed to replace the grip module to better fit my hand…. But it’s still a nice gun!

That said, I put the bling on my G43! :wink:

1776 on a Glock :wink: should be a 1911 :united_states: ‘Merica :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

Welcome to the community. Like everyone else is saying, the choice is yours to make. I have bought a few and traded them in for others. S & W fan myself.

I highly recommend the Wilson Combat grip module.

Everyone has a POV, here mine; My EDC is a SpringField armory XD 9. The make isn’t important, the action is. I distrust MYSELF on holstering/drawing/carrying a striker pistol. The XD9 is a double action. Yes, the first trigger pull with a round in the chamber is going to be significantly harder than a striker. Will I shoot myself in the balls. My bet is no. I cannot in good conscience say the same if the firearm is a striker.

FWIW, have 3 additional EDC. Yes, the EDC is a misnomer, but I do carry each, every day, just different days of the week dependent upon dress.

Browning 9mm Highpower (round in the chamber, not chocked)
Keltec 9mm, double action (each trigger pull is equal)
Keltec 32, double action (each trigger pull is equal)

also have a Sig but the sucker is too large for EDC so do not carry this one, have in velcroid under the work desk for home use.

Yes! My mistake: .380 Glock 44 is indeed correct. My apologies to the chat. Thank you for the correction!

Glock 44 is chambered for 22LR or I am missing something.

My advise for a concealed weapon is the Sig Sauer P 365 9mm that comes with night sights This gun is accurate and easy to use and shoot. Most gun outlets will carry this for a competitive price. Shoots really accurate!

if you have the opportunity shoot the HK CC9.

I took mine out and did a comparison with my Hellcat and P365, it really surprised me that the CC9 had less snap, better grip, and controls than the others.

If possible, I typically try the handgun before purchasing. When I opted for a new EDC I tried an Sig P365, Springfield Hellcat, and a S&W Equalizer. I had better accuracy with the S&W Equalizer, recoil wasn’t excessive, and it fit my concealment options well. If you can, TRY before you BUY.

HK makes great weapons, however the p365 I own shoots very well and easy to take down to clean. I go to the range often and I love it.
