I agree with you Pa Snake about open carry. I was just curious 'cause there's been a lot of promotion of open carry going on recently - was curious what others thought.

Right now it's looking like the Glock 26 is going to be my summer CCW weapon of choice. I just want to get some range time with both the XD 9 and the G26... And make my choice from there.

One other question I have for you guys.... Has anyone purchased the Tallion (I think that's how you spelled) grips for the Glock...? And if so what is your opinion on it. I know some guys are using skateboard tape... But I think that's a little tacky...(No punt intended).
i have the storm in full size .40 and i freaking love it. i've shot over 2,500 round through it and have never had a malfunction. as embarrassed as i am to admit it, i probably don't clean this gun as often or thoroughly i do my rifles. but honestly i don't think i need to. i usually shoot about 150 rounds or so and then clean it every other time.

bottom line it's a great gun and performs well in full size form. in s/c it'll be up to you. i haven't held one or shot one yet.

Why? Guns are not for style points.

I finally picked up a bodyguard yesterday.

Only put 6 shells through it so far but it felt great!
