true, you'd have a problem concealing L frames and up. J-frame? you can keep it in your front pocket with a specialized holster.

Wheelguns are

My dad told me I could have his old off duty/side arm that he used to carry...its a little S&W .38 Snub nose. I tried it out, and its a little awkward...but then again, I'm not used to revolvers. Another problem is that it can only carry 6 shots, where as with the law enforcement magazine, the USP will carry 12 plus one in the pipe

Why do you need to carry a gun all day everyday?

A Barret .50 Caliber?

With that kind of gun, you might as well take out engine blocks and the cars itself... :chuckles:

Barrett M82A1 semi-automatic .50BMG rifles can be had for around $8-9k delivered to your favorite dealer so you can fill out the 4473 for it. Other, lesser .50cal rifles can be had for $1500 and up. Not very affordable to you and I.

Self defense. It's the safest and easiest way.
