beretta nano vs. g43

[Probie]

Carrying more then 1 revolver takes care of that for you. I keep one in each front pocket.

Why not just carry one bigger gun?

At least with a 43 he can carry another mag. Screw carrying a revolver for anything other than a backup

I think that's a terrible choice simply because of the caliber. Although I love revolvers and I'd even buy into the caliber for what it is, the ammo would be hard to find locally. Although I've never looked, I've never really seen it on the shelves anywhere (or at least not frequently enough to remember).

I have a 1000 pieces of brass and load my own so ammo availability has never been an issue.

Fuck either of those guns. If you really want some firepower in a very small and extremely reliable package get a J frame in .327 Federal Mag and bliss out.

Gotcha. I've only been carrying for a year but have been around firearms all my life.

When I started carrying I felt the same way. Never wanted to carry something unless it had an external hammer. Broke down and got a g30s with a good holster and I won't carry any other way now.

For someone who's never been much of a Glock fan, I don't have a bad thing to say about my G42, and have been looking to pickup a G43

Geor has one and likes it but I agree on not seeing ammo all over the place..

Well this just confirmed I don't want a nano

[Cmarsh]

I have a nano and really don't like it. My gf bought it, and the only reason I carry it is because I wouldn't be really upset if it got stolen if my car got broken into while I'm not carrying it. Trigger pull sucks really bad, and it fells heavy/bulky. Looking at a g43 pretty soon to replace it.

When I said no safety I meant a gun like a glock, sig, a revolver, etc..... Really just anything that is reliable and can go bang with nothing more then having to pull the trigger.

I have been carrying for 31 years and haven't had an AD/ND and never will.

The only thing SVO has never done.

I'd hate myself if I did a negligent discharge. Even when I'm packing my 1911 I put the hammer safety on. I did just pick up a 4" XDS .45 I want to start carrying.

[svauto-erotic855]

^^^^ I prefer no safety at all for most of my "oh shit moment" carry guns but I do carry a HiPower in condition one during the winter.

I have a few HiPowers with a funky trigger system that has the hammer cocked but down and it snaps back when you release the safety but I have never gotten into the habit of carrying one.
