As a new Carrier I didn’t consider some important things. I just bought the first gun that felt good. S&W sd40ve. Not a good gun for a beginner. It’s a full size gun, so it’s hard to conceal. It’s a 40 cal, so it has some kick. Something I wasn’t ready for. A few weeks ago I was at my local gun dealer and the guys that work there have been getting to know me real well (I’m in there almost 5 times a week). I walked in and Mike said hey Justin, I was just thinking about you. He said, I know you been talking about getting a better beginner gun for Carrie. So he showed me a Ruger EC9S. The price was good, it felt good. After taking it to the range, I am so happy I got it and now it is my daily Carrie.
