The 15 best concealed carry handguns

 The Ruger LCR is a compact .38 Special caliber revolver built by Ruger. The LCR acronym stands for 'Lightweight Compact Revolver'. It incorporates several novel features such as a polymer grip and trigger housing,[3] monolithic receiver, and constant force trigger. At 13.5 oz (380 g),[4] the LCR is nearly 50% lighter than the stainless steel SP-101[5] and with only the barrel and fluted cylinder made of stainless steel. The frame is aluminum alloy and synthetic glass-filled polymer finished in matte black with Synergistic Hard Coat. The LCR operates in double action only (DAO) as the hammer is concealed within the frame handle's fire control housing of the gun and cannot be cocked prior to firing. In order to create a crisp and light trigger pull that is non-stacking, it features a friction reducing cam, a feature seldom found on double action revolvers (which by nature of their mechanism normally have a very heavy trigger pull).

    1. The guns they list. LOL Tackleberry size is my kind of pistol. But I always prefer a rifle or shotgun. ;)

    2. They are listing CCW ones, so I am sure they haven't included large ones.

    1. I have two in the list: The LCR, but in .357 not .38 and th Glock 30, but not the new model. Why don't you go and handle the 30? I would sure rather have that than a .380.

  3. How can you take this list seriously with no J-frame Smith & Wesson on it?

    1. Don't know, but maybe the expense compared to the LCR?
