EDITOR AT LARGE
When it comes down to it,
the choice of
arming yourself for the purposes of self-defense is one of the most significant
you can make.
While it provides the benefit of the means to protect yourself and
those you care about in a life-or-death situation, it also carries with it a great deal
of responsibility. Did you think you would just pick out a handgun, strap it on and
then everything would be okay? If only it were that simple.
No, this choice requires that you not only make a wise decision regarding your
carry gun, but also employ wisdom in preparing for its use (if that unfortunate
reality ever faces you). You must choose the firearm that is right for you and your
needs, the right holster for safely and effectively carrying it, and also learn to ef-
fectively deploy and use the firearm.
Feel overwhelmed? No need to worry. We are here to help. Within the pages
of this magazine you will find in-depth articles on some of the newest and most
exciting pocket pistols available on the market today. Along with these reviews,
there are also overviews of product lines from major manufacturers, giving you a
good idea of the breadth and depth of their lines.
And this information is not restricted to simply firearms. Thoroughly considered
roundups of some of the best holsters and accessories are packed within these
pages. In addition, pieces on tactics will help you understand how to get your
selected firearm into action as quickly and safely as possible if you must use it.
Want to make sure that you wring out the most performance possible from
your selected carry gun? Then take a look at our roundup of realistically styled
(and, in many cases, operated) air pistols that will provide you with the means to
regularly and affordably get in practice trigger time.
Still not sure of exactly what carry gun you need? Then take a look at our
Pocket Pistols
Buyer’s Guide starting on page 92, which will give you a good
grasp of the vast majority of carry-ready handguns that are available. And once
you do, then take a look at our state-by-state carry laws roundup starting on
page 86 that will give you a look at the CCW laws in all 50 states.
In closing, we would like to thank you for spending your hard-earned money
on this issue of
Pocket Pistols
magazine. We hope that you enjoy reading it as
much as we enjoyed putting it together for you. So dive right in and see what
works best for you. There are a world of choices out there for you; thank you for
trusting us to help you make the right decisions.
