Hitting the gym to become a swoletariat, looking to arm myself as well.
I’ve gone shooting before, and my Dad just bought a couple guns himself because of all the pogroms he’s been seeing against Muslims in ingerland.
I’m based in the United States of Amerikkka, mods please let me know if this isn’t allowed!
If you’re looking to CC then aim for the micro compact segment. They have a good round count while being slimmer and easier to conceal than “compact” guns like the Glock 19. There are a ton of models in this space but there aren’t a ton that have safeties that many of us would recommend to a newer shooter. If you’re budget minded I would recommend the Taurus G3C, which can easily be had for under $300. But definitely put hands on it and try to get range time with it before your purchase.
