Thread: best for CC

I chose the Glock, but not really for reliability reasons. All those guns are reliable enough for carry (though the M&P has the shortest track record). I chose the Glock for shooting-related reasons and availability of mags/holsters/accessories.

i voted sig 220 compact,but i actually carry a 239 9mm,black nitron. reliable and very accurate from close and far.

I was going to vote for the XD. I like them better but since you worded the poll trust with your life not to jam or misfire I picked glock. Now if you said trust to hit your target I would have picked the XD for some reason I shoot better with them.

ENTER THE XD

No H&K?!?!

The poll is missing "other". I don't do compacts, they just feel weird to me. The smallest thing I carry is a Stoeger Cougar.

+1......availability of aftermarket items for Glocks are second to none, plus with so much out there prices stay reasonable.

I have shot only 2 of them and I'll take the XP-Compack. I been to a couple of gun shows looking for a Glock or a XD and came home with a revolver. I am an old dinasour and can't get by them. Maybe in the future.

Has the Beretta Px4 Compact even out yet??? Love to get one

i voted for the 220 compact. i have the full sized 220 along with other sigs. VERY reliable. i love them and recomend them to all those who will listen. they all look like decent choices though.

I think it would be hard to beat the reliability of a Glock!

SIG all the way here.

+1 Sig

I believe whichever gun you can shoot best is the best one for you to carry.

For me, my Walther PPK/S is best.

Your mileage may very!

I vote for Sig, there is no finer.

I love my SIGs, but I had to vote for Glock because of weight. Now if you had the SIG P239 on here . . . .

Besides having the shortest track record, some M&P's are having "dropped mag" issues that are still being posted on the M&P forums. I don't know why the issue hasn't been talked about more in the S&W forum of this board.

They are all fine guns but, I would put the M&P at the bottom of the list and fire off 300-500 rounds before I would trust it. I chose the Sig P220 because of it's outstanding workmanship, build quality and reliability....

Not on the list, but I favor the Kahr PM9 for CC.
Small enough to be a great SOB or ankle holster weapon and has good accuracy for expect ranges for personal defense. Very light weight, hardly know it's there. Small enough not to imprint on your clothing if it's n a good holster.
Mine has about one thousand rds thru it with no jams or misfires.

Happy holidays to all!

I voted Glock. I carried a Glock 32 for years and its identical to the 23. Comfortable. Reliable. And my Glock was the most accurate handgun I have shot to this day.

i hate your choices

Since your question specifically asks about reliability and is restricted to those choices I choose Glock. In the real world, I choose a Walther P99 or P99c.

I voted Glock, but, carry both Glock and Sig. Glock was my first handgun and I have never had a reliability issue. I love my Sigs, but, it's hard to forget your first love.

XD = Glock for reliability
XD > Glock 23 for size
XD < Glock for accessories

I chose size over toys. I carry the XD. But mines a 9mm...
The second stringer (vying for sixth-man of the year) is my new Kel-Tec p11)

A good Ruger is hard to pass up.
