Mainly my parents who passed away six weeks apart 13 years ago. Christmas has not been the same since then.
9mm Magazine Loader?
Posted by RetiredSaintsLsuFan on 12/24/25 at 6:16 pm
Loading my 9mm handgun magazines is killing my old arthritic fingers. There has to be an easier way.
What are they?

Yea, do this, but it shouldnt matter. You just have to reload once at each target, it technically doesnt matter how you do it.
After visiting the second CC instructor I have my info straightened out. The first instructor gave me the info for a combo basic and enhanced permit. The live fire requirements for the basic permit is hitting the target 15 out of 20 rounds shot at 15'. There is no time requirement. He even made the comment we make sure everyone passes.

I believe so, but I will talk to another instructor tomorrow.

I was going to use my S&W 9mm shield, but I only have two magazines for it. I have four 17 round magazines for my SAR9, so I will practice and use it for the live rounds segment.

I talked to a CC instructor today about the class and live fire segments. I need enough magazines to fire 50 rounds. I would have to hit the B-27 target inside the "7" ring 35 of the 50 rounds. I need to find some decently priced magazines and I need to hit the range to practice. The live fire segment has three parts from 3 yards (20 rounds), 10 yards (20 rounds) and 15 yards (10 rounds).

I checked with my brother and he carries a 380 and it has a clip on it which he clips onto his belt.

Would a handgun in the door pocket of my truck be considered concealed?

I have these already that I have not tried yet.

I also have this. I figured I could set up a target in my garage to do some practices.

I have free access to an outdoor range about 15 minutes from me (I can hear the gunshots from my house) where the indoor range is about 45 minutes away. This process may drag out until warmer weather comes and stays.

I will be going by an indoor range next week to check on the CC requirements and classes. I am thinking the S&W 9mm shield will be my best option with an OWB holster. I need to find a place where I can actually try some holsters with my S&W. I like the look of this one.

Let me know how this works out. I will be taking my wife next week to look at some and go talk to a CC instructor about private lessons.

KISS is why I think a revolver would be better for my wife.

What specially does she not like about the shield I guess I should ask
I laid my Shield 9mm and the SAR9 on the bed the other day to show her the differences in size. Her one comment was the Shield was still heavy. She is 69.

I checked into Crossbreed holsters and they have dropslide OWB holsters that will fit all three of my handguns. I need to hit the range to see which handgun (S&W-9mm Shield, Taurus PT92 and SAR9) I shoot the best with. I don't see getting an IWB without buying new pants.

I am in the same position with my wife. I bought a S&W M&P 9mm shield for her, but she does not care for it. I am thinking a snub nose revolver would be simpler. I am checking into getting a CC permit and I would like her to get one also.

For the people that posted could you post what holsters you have?
