A Shield (or whatever) and a spare mag will do for almost any realistic civilian CCW situation. Might you need more? Sure. But I feel like the more you tailor you carry around the most extreme situation the less likely you will actually carry. For me, a G17 with an X400 or a FNX-Tactical or whatever would be great, but I'm not really going to carry all that crap over the long term. It all comes down to, are you really going to carry a G19 or whatever as much as you would a G43? I doubt it. But if I'm wrong, by all means, go big or go home.
I carry a 5 shot J-frame, usually with no reload. But I always have it.
Let those who are fond of blaming and finding fault, while they sit safely at home, ask, ‘Why did you not do thus and so?’I wish they were on this voyage; I well believe that another voyage of a different kind awaits them.”
