    Sig 1911 RCS isn't a bad gun for it.

    I have had great success carrying a Kimber Ultra CDP as well as a Wilson Combat Professional. Even a full-size 1911 isn't too bad if you have the right set up. Those defender sized guns are nice for concealed carry though.
    Even death is a poor excuse for not fighting back.
