I currently carry the Glock 48, but at times it’s difficult to conceal.
What are the folks of the outdoor board carrying?
What is considered the best CC handguns out there now?

Update:

Thanks to everyone for sharing what they carry and their opinions. After doing what seems like too much research, I purchased the Smith & Wesson M&P shield plus. Got a great deal from my local gun shop ( the pistol, 6 mags and range bag for $445). I fired about 50 rounds through it today and I like it better than my Glock 48. It will definitely be my new CC carry moving forward.

Depends on your budget. You can spend $400 or 4K.

Looking for something easier to conceal with a smaller grip than the Glock 48. My hands are on the smaller side and I like the look of the hk cc9 and the kimber r7 mako. Just looking for other options and getting other people’s opinions.

My first concealed carry was the original shield in .40 I regret not buying the 9 mm version. Then I bought the Sig x-macro comp. It is a great gun but I also feel it is hard to carry. I recently bought the new Shield X and it has been awesome to carry. I would highly recommend it to everyone. I do still carry the Shield .40 from time to time.

Glock 19
Picked up a Canik TP9 SC but haven't shot it enough yet to feel great about carrying it. I do like it though.

Either Seacamp .380 for pocket gun or Mackarov 9x18 in OWB. Both are double action, pull and start squeezing the trigger.

43x with an EPS carry and Black Steel pedal in an enigma. I want to add a light but don’t want to buy a new holster. The enigma is awesome and there is no other way to carry for me. Thinking really hard about getting the slide and barrel C cut from Glockstore. I’d like a Radian Ramjet/afterburner but I don’t want to add length, so I think the C cut would be a great option.

Edit: I think I would go for the new Stacatto C3.6 if I were to do it over again.
