From Ammoland:
The New York City Police Department (NYPD) will start processing concealed carry permits for out-of-state residents to avoid a possible lawsuit.

Now, with the gun in limited domestic production at Glock’s facility in Smyrna, Georgia, the American-made Gen 3 G25 is being distributed by TALO.
Man With No Hands Qualifies For Carry Permit
From Fox 4:
An Austin man is now licensed to carry a gun despite not having arms. His instructor says it took a few hours to teach the student, and he passed with flying colors.
“It brought me to tears, I wanted to cry because I was happy that I was able to help this young man,” said Central Texas Gun Works owner Michael Cargill. “He wanted to be able to protect himself.”
North Carolina Proposes Dangerous Regulations For Concealed Carry Classes
From Bearing Arms:
The North Carolina Criminal Justice Education and Training Standards Commission is the body that oversees (among other things) the roughly 2,600 firearm instructors throughout the state, and several months ago the commission got an earful from many of them over proposed rules that would have introduced sweeping changes and additional burdens for anyone teaching a concealed carry course. As drafted, the rules would have required every instructor to give the state 30 days’ notice before hosting a concealed carry course as well as keeping a list of all attendees for up to two years afterward; information that would have to be handed over to the state during the course of any investigation into the instructor.
Easy Situational Awareness
From USA Carry:
most violence that takes place in public happens in transitional spaces. There is violence in the home and in the workplace, both of which account for a great deal of overall assault and criminal activity each year, but outside of these specific locations, the most likely place for dangerous confrontation and criminal predation is within transitional spaces.
Budget Carry Gun: SCCY DVG-1
From The Truth About Guns:
The result is the DVG-1, a pistol with impressive handling and firing characteristics for the price. I have tried quite a few of the SCCY pistols over the years and have seen them in classes I’ve taught. They’re known for being feed- and function-reliable. Some of the early models with a manual safety had a habit of moving to the safe position during a firing string, but that problem has long since been resolved.
New Shield Plus Holds 13+1 Rounds
From Guns.com:
The new 9mm M&P Shield Plus, which comes in both standard and Performance Center models, comes with 10- and 13-round mags while keeping the same traditional frame – and therefore holster – size as the legacy Shields. Other new additions are an updated and optimized grip texture and redesigned trigger. S&W says the flat-face trigger will give users a consistent trigger finger placement allowing for more accurate and repeatable shooting, while the new stippling on the grip texture allows the user to manage recoil, keep a firm grip, and not irritate the skin while carrying concealed.Â
New Ruger Micro Compact
From Guns.com:
Equipped with a tritium fiber optic day/night front sight that is co-witnessed for JPoint and Shield-pattern micro red dot sights, the MAX-9 runs flush-fit 10-round magazines as well as 12 rounders with a grip extension. Standard models have a frame-mounted 1911-style thumb safety while Pro models are available without the lever.
Why Buy A Hi-Point?
From The Truth About Guns:
Hi-Points are to firearms design what Olive Garden is to Italian food. They’ll get the job done and…that’s about it. No surprise, then, that Hi-Point’s guns rarely appear on the top of anyone’s want firearms list. Our reviews have been a mixed bag where HP’s guns are concerned. The C9 pistol didn’t fare well. But the 1095 TS 10mm carbine and the Yeet Cannon G1 did better. But there are at least three good reasons (besides their lifetime warranty) to buy one.
Concealed Carry Rising Fast
From The Daily Caller:
Issued CCW permits increased approximately 275 percent over a ten-year period, from 4.6 million permits in 2007 to over 17.25 permits in 2018, according to a study released Friday by the Crime Prevention Research Center (CPRC). The number has been increasing year over year and is forecast to continue trending upwards.

The Titusville Police Department said the incident at Isaac Campbell Park late Saturday afternoon was sparked over a fistfight after which one of the brawlers returned with a gun and started shooting. An armed bystander lawfully carrying a concealed handgun then returned fire and hit the suspect– the only person injured in the event.
Louisiana Introduces Bill to Allow Lifetime Carry Permit
From Guns.com:
Prior to the passage of House Bill 265, Louisiana gun owners who wanted to carry a firearm for self-defense outside the home had to renew their concealed carry permit every five years and pay a fee of $125. Now, though, assuming Gov. Bobby Jindal signs HB 265 into law, gun owners can purchase a lifetime CCW permit for $500 provided they agree to undergo firearm training and education classes every five years.
How To Carry Concealed And Dress Well
The ArtOfManliness.com has a good introductory article on how carry with different types of attire.
How to arrange good-looking clothing around the decidedly non-standard bulge of a handgun is a topic worth looking at. It’s something that a whole range of men need to think about: police detectives, security guards, entrepreneurs in dangerous countries, and even your average American civilian who prefers to be armed.
“Concealed carry†exists for a number of reasons. When you’re doing it, you want to be living up to both parts of the phrase: you want to be carrying, and have access to, a firearm, and you want it to be discreetly hidden until such time as you need it.
Iowa CCW Permits Double in One Year
