Best Self Defense Pistols - To be clear, pistols produce more on average than revolvers: in 2019; American manufacturers have cut more than 3 million semi-autos, compared to 580,000 wheelguns, but they are far from extinct. Slides They have many advantages in a home security situation with simple weapons without software or manual defenses.
The story behind the X-Compact is interesting. On a sunny New England day, a pair of SIG Sauer Academy instructors decided to create a new concealable pistol. One securely holds the field-striped X-Five handheld module, while the other cuts it with a hacksaw.

When the plastic dust settled, the frame was cut to accept 15-round P320 compact magazines, and the dust cover was cut to fit a small slide assembly. It depicts a pistol that isn't pretty, but it's scary.
Self-Defense Ammo Availability
On the business side of the arms world; Extensive outdoor testing included the 9mm Luger in .22WMR and .380ACP; .38 Special; .357 Magnum; .40 S&W; 10mm Auto and .45ACP are the FBI's "sweet spot" when used in common firearms.
After reading your article I was wondering how you feel about the Walther PPQ M1. Do you think it is a reliable and worthy semi? What, if any, are the knock-offs? About the Walther lineup. I am still in shopping and research mode and interested in this.
Hey Darius... I went to a gun store and it wasn't listed as a safe gun... Gen 3 only. If you become a law enforcement officer or are found through a private referral. But be prepared to pay a premium.
I liked your article, but my personal opinion is that this should be everyone's "first gun" revolver. They are low maintenance, but 99.999% reliable whether you have kids or not. I love my Glock and baby and maintain it with care, but the new one will freak out if I bump into it.
Smith Wesson Mp
The Staccato 2011 P is basically a 1911 but modernized. It is very accurate and very reliable. It gave me a good 2 years and over 50,000 rounds in the can. I will replace the barrel this weekend.
This is a very expensive gun; But it's definitely worth it. If it can handle recoil, it can do so in a smaller size. I prefer the Glock to the M&P and the Walter...nothing against Glocks but they are a solid platform, but I find the PPQ and Smith M&P to have better ergonomics than the Glocks.
By Chris Mudgett | Published September 11, 2020 1:22 PM EDT. The Ruger Security 9 is a more affordable option than the Glock 19. It is made in the USA and sells for about 60% of the price of a Glock (I paid $299 for mine).
The only downside I've found is that this is a relatively new product, so the bag and accessory options are somewhat limited (but growing rapidly). It is hammer fired as opposed to striker fire and most other metrics like the Glock (better than a box trigger though IMHO).

Modern Design
Good article I am 62 years old now. It is becoming difficult for me and for the wife, a full-sized spinner; Slides etc. are difficult to handle. My wife has a Taurus TX-22; Loaded with high speed HP.
His hands and wrists can handle light recoil and even penetrate light bullets at 1400+ fps. I also put a slide racer on my XD-9 and my Glock. Some competitive shooters and police use them. They extend 1 or 2 fingers or trouser pockets on one or both sides to close the slide or remove the defect.
They are available from two market manufacturers. First of all - I'm always amazed at an article that breaks down all the "must know" basics for new shooters. But I can't disagree with the model choices from experience (or should I say, trying to find a good handgun for my wife due to recent events).
I agree 100% that ergonomics come first. But second on the list (for beginners) is ease of target acquisition and how easy it is to make follow-up shots. These will be Walther PPQ Q4 (compact frame) and Walther PPQ Q5 (full frame).
Reasonably Priced
Nothing influences the changing trends in the handgun market better than compact carry pistols – and for good reason. These mid-sized pistols are the ideal size to fulfill both duty and concealed carry roles. They can handle 90 percent of the duties of their full-size brethren, but can disappear under a T-shirt.
Other than the Glock pistol, the S&W M&P 2.0 is often the most suitable pistol for first-time owners. As with all Glock pistols, the M&P is not my favorite, but they are a good choice for others.
This is just a variation on the isosceles position that has become popular in the last decade. Indeed, it appears to be tailored to "tactical" shooters wearing body armor and chest armor. At first, I didn't know if it was good to shoot this way.
I was trained to do something like you described and have had good results with spin management ever since. Back in the dawn of the gun, firearms were used to protect the homes of those who could afford them.
History And Performance
By the 14th century, model castles with stone and brick walkways and multiple entrances were commonly seen in medieval castles. I don't like the popular recommendation to start with a weaker gun like the 9mm and eventually move on to other guns.
I did my research and determined that 10mm handguns are where they exist; So I decided to skip it and go straight to it. I picked up warm but reliable ammo to start firing and bumped into the hot stuff.

I will keep my 10mm pistol for the rest of my life because I grew up with them and I love them. Just replace the parts when they wear out and continue with the progress of the ammunition.
I'm glad I don't have to resell my private practice guns later, though. Because I would never add an unnecessary pointless step in the first place. I am an XD/XDM fan. That's it, 1911, of course.
Sig Sauer P X-Compact
I have two elder sons. The old man knows AA and guns. When I was younger, I gave him an XD40. The grip safety felt "okay" for a beginner. The gun needs to be held in order to fire without opening and closing the gun.
Once there was an incident where a friend of mine grabbed a pistol from the tail of his coat and grazed his cheek. Everyone laughed. If he takes the usual "DRT" mode, it could be a disaster.
I will continue to carry my XDM 40. This is my personal CCW and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a concealed carry pistol. It's easy to conceal in the holster and fits my shockingly average-sized hand perfectly with the extended magazine.
I started with a Ruger Single Action Army in 357 mag. My other pistol is a Colt 1911 Combat Commander in .45. I now sport a Beretta APX Centurion in 9mm. So far for me, I absolutely love the Beretta.
Walther Ppq
Glock 17 Gen 5 2 months ago I read this blog and really enjoyed it. I didn't like the M&P 2.0's grip because it was too aggressive in appearance. The Gen 4 Glock didn't handle well with fingers either, so Glock got rid of them for the Gen 5.
Fit and finish are average to perfect and I think the M&P is a good value stock. Glock sights are embarrassing, but Glock is easily fixed with night sights (send them your slide and they'll upgrade for $67).
Whips beautifully and the cutout at the bottom of the grip to eject the mag doesn't bother my large hands at all. A Glock is far from a family heirloom that you'll pass down for generations, but it's a rock-solid gun that will always perform.
Not the best value around. Many heritage models on the second-hand market will fit this bill, but your grandfather's 80-year-old Colt Police positive, for example, is a good choice with a modern gun from a reputable manufacturer in good repair.

Beretta Fs
Made with some modifications. Heckler & Koch has marketed its P7 series of handguns and 20-year-old caviar and malt to the uber-reliable and expensive German gunmaker for a generation, but the uber-reliable and expensive German gunmaker has outgunned it.
Park with even lower prices. Recently introduced the VP9 pistol. That's stupid. If you're holding a gun in the dark, you want a light. End of story. Are you targeting yourself? They are for worshiping spirits in your home.
You are already their target. The current 19 is its fifth generation. Undoubtedly, the best model to date. Subtle changes from one generation to the next show that Glock is focused on the needs of its customers.
To replace their WWII-era .45ACP government issues in the late 1980s, the Marine Corps contracted with Springfield Armory for a series of upgraded M1911s. For the same generation, police tactical teams to join the FBI HRT unit also went with modified springers for their penetration guns.
Cz Sp- Tactical
Oh...sadly, I made some bad choices at first. As a small woman, I was advised to buy a revolver which I hated...and then tested a small CC gun...lots of flipping and grinding. So I tried the Glock 29 and was in heaven.
It was heavy enough to flip or squish, and easily learned to handle a simple "push" recoil. I use this Glock in all of my classes to get more proficient. Then switched to the Glock 19... then concealed carry.
yes Convinced someone to buy a gun… that's another story. Now I'm looking for a rifle that gives me the same confidence. Will you attend the course?? Listen to an unemployed cop or lawyer paying $125.00 or more.
buy a gun read the manual Be done with the BS. buy a nice bag cover the dirt good to go Glocks have many accessories; There's no sense in limiting yourself to saving a few extra dollars.
Avoid Rimfires
Some people are fine with the basic model, but eventually many people want to upgrade their weapon. In this case it makes sense to go with the weapon that has the most offers available. I know many buyers out there who have owned a gun that has never been fired.
Most are older or female and lack strength and machismo. The Walther CCP CM2 380 is a good choice because of its soft recoil system and light spring, making it easier to operate the slide and load rounds into battery.

Just my humble opinion. Ammunition is easy to collect and makes little noise. Most full-size or mid-size pistols have a 6-inch or longer sight radius, providing decent accuracy and a better ability to get quick shots.
For those who choose to use a suppressor with previous volume control advantages, Autoloaders are the only way to go. A .22lr pistol for a "Beginner"; (imho .22lr Walther PPQ) to learn the basics of shooting;
Mid Or Full-Sized Frame
Without worrying about explosiveness and recoil, Master the basics and choose a good 9mm. Only 2 cents. But I tend to Sigs daddy come on baby :):) p365s all day and twice on sunday!! I understand the thinking - yes you shouldn't shoot first and ask questions later....(right) It depends on many factors.
If you or you and your wife sleep together, have children, if you suspect a burglary in their room, you should check their room for safety... if they are in their bed, everyone doesn't account to anyone.
There's a key to your home—making sure you have a spacious room. And once you've seen your gun, you've got to practice it on the person—or practice it in the hallway leading to your family's bedroom.
Better to stay away from that corridor. call the police But if they enter that corridor, they shoot them. It's your family. Unless you live in Commifornia. Then you can shoot yourself. I own a 9mm Sig P320 full size and absolutely love it.
