Glock 29 10mm Carry Pistol
From Guns.com:
New for 2024, Glock is starting to evolve its 5th Generation offerings deeper into its subcompact lines, with the .45 ACP G30 and 10mm G29 tapped as the next two on the list, joining the 9mm G26 and .40 S&W G27.
The biggest updates among some 20 modifications from the old Gen 4 standard to the newer Gen 5 include deleting the finger grooves in favor of a straight grip, adding front slide serrations, an nDLC finish, ambidextrous slide stop levers, and an enhanced Glock Marksman Barrel.
Best Budget Carry Pistols
From Guns.com:
In this case, budget means quality at a fair and affordable price. There may be a feature or two you wish each gun had, but remember, these are commonly found under $500, so it’s hard to complain too much.
Savage Introduces Micro Compact Pistol
From Guns.com:
The guns, polymer-framed striker-fired micro-compacts intended for carry and self-defense, use a serialized chassis that allows it to easily swap across a range of various grip frames with black, gray, and FDE modules available at launch, all with interchangeable backstraps to adjust grip size. The Stance has a 3.2-inch stainless-steel barrel, making it just slightly shorter than the Glock 43 and more akin in size to the FN 503 and Sig P365 in that metric. The new Savage pistols have 7, 8, and 10-round magazine options.
New Springfield Carry Pistol In 10mm
From The Truth About Guns:
Compact yet powerful, the pistol packs in 11+1 rounds of the popular 10mm round. Featuring fully ambidextrous controls, the excellent META trigger, removable short flared magwell and much more, the new XD-M® Elite 3.8″ Compact OSP 10mm harnesses fight-stopping performance in an extremely capable CCW-sized package. With its extended magwell removed, the pistol can also accept full-size 15-round magazines with backstrap-compatible grip sleeves.
Comparing Four Popular Carry Pistols
From The Truth About Guns:
Shooting the SIG SAUER P365, Springfield Hellcat, Ruger MAX-9, and Smith & Wesson M&P9 Shield Plus (listed in order of when they were released) back-to-back-to-back-to-back, the following is our takeaways on how these four fantastic little pistols stack up.
New Taurus Micro 9mm GX4
From Guns.com:
Getting the specs out of the way, the 11+1 shot 9mm is the size of popular .380 “pocket guns,” using a 3.06-inch barrel to tape out to a maximum 6.05-inch overall length. The gun is slender, at just over an inch wide, and it is 4.4 inches high at its tallest. The unloaded weight is 18.6 ounces. Fully loaded with 12 rounds of 147-grain JHPs, we found our test gun to hit the scales at 23.9 ounces.Â
Ruger MAX-9
From The Truth About Guns:
With an onboard capacity of 10+1 rounds flush fit and 12+1 rounds extended, Ruger’s new MAX-9 takes aim at the incredibly hot market for micro-compact pistols with double-digit capacities. Equipped with a tritium and fiber optic front sight and an optics-ready slide at an MSRP of just $499 (less on Brownells), the MAX-9 undercuts the competition on features for the dollar.
New Sig 365 Comes With Red Dot
From Guns.com:
The new P365X ROMEOZero gets its designation from the fact that it combines the 3.1-inch barrel of the original P365 with the P365XL XSERIES grip module, giving it a 12-round flush-fit magazine, and comes with a factory-installed ROMEOZero red dot.Â
New Springfield Hellcat Compact Pistol
From The Truth About Guns:
Springfield has unveiled the new Hellcat 9mm micro-compact 9mm pistol. This is not to be confused with the I.O. Hellcat, or the Guncrafter industries Hellcat. This is a new handgun designed to compete directly with the SIG P365.
Taurus Introduces New Carry Pistol For A New Generation
The New SPECTRUM Pistol is a highly customizable .380 pistol.
What is the best defensive pistol to carry?

“A defensive carry weapon must work, must be there, and be big enough to do the job at hand.
My opinion? The largest reliable pistol you can carry, comfortably concealed all day, that is the way to go.
