What Caliber is Best for Concealed Carry?

.380 ACP

◇ Small, cheap rounds which are very available

◇ Magazines can hold many rounds

◇ Guns using this caliber are easy to conceal and will be less likely to be left at home

◇ The small caliber sacrifices stopping power

9mm

◇ Can be found anywhere, not to mention it’s cheap

◇ Very minor recoil◇ Smaller rounds allow for

increased capacity

◇ You give up a lot of stopping power when compared to some other handgun rounds

.40 S&W

◇ More stopping power than the 9mm

◇ Very available◇ A good compromise

between the weakness of the 9mm and the bigger recoil of the .45 ACP

◇ More costly and more recoil than 9mm

.38 Special

◇ Good stopping power◇ Can also be fired from

a .357 Magnum

◇ More expensive◇ Typically used in

revolvers which hold less rounds

◇ Limited options for concealed carry

.45 ACP

◇ More stopping power◇ Ammo is relatively

cheap
