looking for a new carry gun, currently carry a Beretta Nano 9mm

was thinking about a revolver, but not sure how easy they are to conceal due to the width of the wheel. I carry my current gun at about 5 o'clock, would i need to change the location?

guess it all depends on the size, any recommendations?

Of jacket or pants? If pants, do you wear these?

I used to carry LCR .38. Great pocket gun. Switched to a small frame 9mm because I wanted more rounds and slimmer profile.

I had a s&w 442 carried in a small kydex holster outside the waistband. Wore an untucked shirt and went everywhere and no one knew.

Ill get another one someday.

I don't see why it would be any harder to carry than a G19.

I don't carry concealed but I could easily conceal my 3" GP100 if I wanted to. It's just heavy as hell.

Ruger LCR .357. Carry it from time to time. Just because I have a few cc's to choose from, it conceals fine in a crossbreed.

They see the rattlesnake grips and run. Don't need live rounds.

S&W 642 (silver) or 442 (black). Cylinder is not too wide because it only holds 5. Aluminum frame so its not too heavy. Its a good cc choice because its never going to jam.

My everyday carry is a 1911 owb.

Every once in a while, I carry a S&W 340PD Airlite in .357. In certain situations it is easier to conceal. But it's nasty to shoot with the .38+P loads that I carry. I consider it a 20-25 foot gun. Beyond that, I can't shoot a tight group.

I can drive nails with my 1911.

Another aspect of carrying a revolver (a lot of you will laugh at this) but say you get into an altercation and fire off 5 rounds and everybody runs off. There's no evidence left behind that you were ever there since the casings aren't ejected. Granted you weren't caught on video.

I just don't understand why anyone would choose a revolver for everyday carry.

You are handicapping yourself.
