What NomeProvider endorses is quite literally fatal stupidity.
I carried my M9 safety-off, hammer-down on a loaded chamber in a chest rig in Iraq. Perfectly safe. My 1911 is carried cocked and locked. My revolvers are carried hammer-down on loaded cylinders. Hammer-back with no safety other than a trigger guard and hope is stupid.

I also hate the safety on the slide, but I like the pistol.

Anyway back on topic and some nice chatter, there some really nice rifles there I do like older guns. Anybody use nice wooden gripped pistols at all or is it all modern technology now? Anybody collect lady pistols at all or Gentlemens guns?

Do you find it too small when shooting? A grip extended is always a possibility, I just don't like curling my pinky under the grip on the stock 26. The 19 definitely is more comfortable to hold, fits my hands well. It just seems like it'd be tough to conceal, I'm 5'9" 170# so I'm not a big guy. I'd love to buy both but that's not in the cards right now.

I'm not a big guy either. All of my mags have the extenders which allow for an extra round and a perfect grip. You should go to a rental range and try them both out; see which one you fancy more. The G26 is lightweight and compact as hell. It has my vote for sure.
People gripe about stopping power of 9mm, but the reality is with the right ammo and well placed shots it will give you all of the stopping power you need.

I think that 99% of people who gripe about 9mm have never fired one in anger

Thanks all for helping debunk the recent suggestions to carry hammer back on a DA pistol equipped with a decocker so I didn't have to get involved. My mind was momentarily blown from that suggestion. I think I'm still trying to process any semblance of reason from that explanation.

That entire thing was full of retard and stupid. It is literally the equivalent of pre-pulling grenade pins and relying on the pouch to hold in the spoon.

I carry an empty gun. I stuff french fries into the magazine as a snack holder.

I'm still waiting for Nome to come back and try and defend his stupidity. Assuming, of course, he hasn't added a new hole by his methods.

Just left the gun range and there was a young guy in there attempting to buy the 9mm shield like I have.
He then proceeds to try and put it in the front pocket of his skinny jeans, and says that's how he is going to carry it.
An older man tells him it will be too hard to get out of his pocket fast enough to use it.
He says "oh no I'm not carrying any ammo in it. It's just to scare people away. They will see the gun and know that I mean business".
