    Howdy from Central Texas

    I stumbled on to this forum a week ago and really like what I've seen. Fresh and informative. Quite surprised that there are so many mid/large frame guns being carried discreetly. I am looking forward to learning.

    Patmarc - welcome aboard

    Yep - if dress and circumstance permit (as they do 99% of my time) - then it is full size, and heavy - and controllability. I will only go smaller if I have to.
