      I have the original SIG 365 as my go to CCW for it's, but I also really like the S&W 642 airweight for simplicity and reliability. I also have the PC charger with that brace. I think it may have been that exact YT review that convinced me.  I have a Sig Romeo and ordered a Silencer Central Banish 30 can for it back in Jan. Hope it gets here soon. I'd like to swap out the forward grip stop for something more substantial, but not sure what I can get away with.

      I have been carrying the Hellcat for years, bought the P365X and put a Holosun on it.  I typically grab the Hellcat, feels more natural and easier to conceal than the 365.  I probably need a new holster for the 365.  Both are great, I have very large hands and both have slightly larger grips so I feel like I have better hand position. Anyone carry a bigger weapons in their vehicle?  I have a bag on the back of the passenger seat with a Ruger PC Charger...love the gun.  Folding stock keeps it very small and maneuverable.  Accepts the Glock 30 round Mags, keep three in the bag which is a lot of firepower to beat down the zombies and get back to my bunker.

      Russian Ukraine shenanigans

      Hey! You can be taught. I think there's hope for you yet. Instead of a 10 year old event unrelated to the current conflict, you've somehow combed through over 1800 episodes and found a 4 year old podcast unrelated to the current conflict. It ain't much, but it's something. I'm sure it took a lot of effort, so I'll commend you for it. Side thought: Are you at work today? Hmmm. Remember that comment I made about you being the high school debate team's one trick pony? You'll will never abandon your ad-hominem tactic no matter how transparent it makes your unwillingness to address the actual facts or lies. Aren't you even a little bit ashamed that that is your only defense? It only gets you so far. Because the topic of this podcast is so far out of the realm of issues that are of importance in the context of the Rus-Ukr war, I am unfamiliar with this one. But I'm willing to give it a listen and report back to you with an original take using critical thinking that I didn't have to defer to Google for. Understand I have to withold judgement until I verify that the claims within are ridiculous, and I'll even concede there is a probability of bullshit given my commitment to truth and honesty. So I'm already going in with a bias that suits your fancy. Can I get a little appreciation? At first glance, however, I'm suddenly reminded of claimed chemical attacks and WMD that were used as a pretext for going to war. You may have been a child then, so you might not remember. Anyway, thanks for the link. It's in the lineup.

      External safety is a training issue, but sure, personal preference... Why does an external hammer matter to you? 4.5lbs (avg factory setting) is hardly a hair trigger. Agreed 100% on capacity issue.  I'd want more rounds, if I wound up in a fight.

      I absolutely hate 1911s for carry weapons. External safety, external hammer, hair trigger pull, low ammo for the footprint.   I do like that the single stack magazine makes it thin, but there's a reason you don't see many Mil/Leo professionals using a 1911 on duty. Or 45ACP for that matter.   And if you need more than 8 you're probably trying to take down a shooter at longer range. Like this dude. Amazing shot, he didn't need the extra rounds at 40 yards, but I probably would 🤣: https://www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/indiana-mall-shooting-elisjsha-dicken-neutralized-gunman-15-seconds/   Damn beautiful guns though.
