My favorite conceal carry guns

​I'm asked for suggestions for a good conceal carry gun pretty often. So down below I have made a list of good handguns that are used by many for conceal carry. Please note that I don't have personal experience with all of these guns but they are typically considered quality and reliable by most. I will mark any that I have personally carried and trusted my life to over my 12 years of conceal carrying.

The below are in no particular order.
Please feel free to reach out for any questions on the below or to place an order.
