The 9 rounds in my concealed .45

I bought a Glock 29 recently, slapped on a stream light tlr7x. I switch that out with a Glock 26/17 depending on the outfit. I'm usually rocking two pistols unless it's a quick trip somewhere.
 
A little info to counter some other, perhaps misleading, info provided. The .380 and 9mm have the same diameter bullet. The difference is in the casing, and therefor power. Both are putting a .355 dia hole through whatever they hit. The 9mm is going to hit harder, but it comes with more recoil making follow up shots much more difficult for people that don’t shoot a lot. I carry a 9mm myself, but I have no worries on the occasion I grab my wife’s .380. Its going to do the job just fine.
 
This guy knows more than probably all of us put together. Does it mean you should do whatever he says? No. But it does mean you should listen. And then make up your own mind


 
Unless you're training fairly often, a .380 isn't a bad option for most smaller people. They are going to be panick spraying and something that isn't going to have hard recoil and can maintain keeping your eyes open...its a good bet. Most people aren't going to stand around and get mad at being hit by a .380..they'll take off
 
Had this stuff for a while, recently tried. Its legit.

My reloads are 125grn flatpoint at 1170fps. 380ft lbs.



Havent chrono'd but this is advertised 1200fps 124grn

396ftlbs.

I beleive it is likely correct, as this stuff kicks a bit more, and slaps steel harder than my usual stuff.

it shoots good too.

prolly bought as good as it gets overall for 9mm. More pop than standard 45acp ball.
