I regretted waiting and finally found it (XDS 45.) A little more than I expected, if I had done it last year, but I am happy. And I have ammo for it which is always a hurdle now. Although it is getting cheaper to just throw the gun at them instead shooting. :)
Haha. Thanks Dave for pointing that out. A little more about me is that I grew up in Southwest PA or as everyone calls it...Pittsburgh. I also lived in Frederick MD for 10 years.
Thank you sir. I appreciate the links. BTW I was an MP as well. 9th ID MP Ft Lewis, 95th MP HHD MST Mannheim and 307 MP (for Desert Storm 91) Stuttgart
Been here stalking for a little while, but I am starting to look at some AR builds and ammo reloading. I don't have any fancy firearms photos to share because I lost everything in a boating accident on Deep Creek Lake. (That's in the real western Maryland...you know all the way past Frederick)...
I really didn't get a real sense why the article was written. Did someone object to him carrying? Did this reporter just want to stir the pot, I mean. The whole gist was "Sometimes I carry and sometimes I don't only because I couldn't secure it before going" End of story.
What about carrying something like a Kubaton? They can be very effective in disabling a perp. https://www.google.com/search?q=kubaton&num=20&newwindow=1&espv=2&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=Uf2iVIauJsGZgwTRx4LQCA&ved=0CCsQsAQ&biw=1920&bih=971
