re: SA 1911 or Sig p229 for first handgun

My suggestion for you if you are about to start carrying is to talk with and have the name / phone number of an attorney you can contact day or night if you are involved in a defensive shooting. Take care of this before you begin carrying a weapon capable of killing another human being.

I mention this often because too many people give little thought to the aftermath of an event.

I will also ask, are you planning to receive any training before carrying? Are you mentally comfortable with the idea of employing deadly force? Are you prepared to have your life changed forever should you have to kill someone?

I am pro-concealed carry and think it is great when more people buy firearms. However, it isn't something to be entered into lightly. Just some things to consider if you haven't already.
