Something else -
Marketing is great - sometimes.
Creative Marketing IMO is negative for most folks in this serious business of CCW.
Find a gun that fits YOU,, meaning you can reach and operate all controls and get quick accurate hits.
The ammo is reliable 200 rds Including all Mags in testing.
Then check Ammo shoots POA/POI
I suggest having more than one Brand / Ammo choice in the event the store is out of, quits carrying, or you out of town and need more - having already checked a variety of ammo as mentioned about YOU know for YOUR gun.
FWIW, I also believe in having at least 3 of same CCW and prefer 4.
One is primary, one is backup, one in case one needs repair/taken in as evidence and one off-site somewhere.
Some guns I use are over 20 years old still using the same loads year round I tested back when. If it ain't broke - don't fix it.
Borrowing from Another Discipline :
Shooting is 90% Mental , the other 10% is Physical .
Physical include the gun, the loadings...
Find a gun that fits, the loads are reliable, then quit messing with it! You have taken care of the Physical....
Now you can better use all of the 90% of the Mental to focus on mindset, targets,...
Good shooters are made - not born...
Practice, become one with the gun until it is an extension of you, practice until the Physical is natural, freeing up the Mental - and never stealing from the 90% Mental Aspect toward Physical...

For you young folks, Champion at Skeet, Trap and hunting -
"If he could see it - he could fell it".
Simplify!
I prefer to focus on mindset and mental, the physical was taken care of a long time ago. For ME.
