Couldn't y'all just find a nice deck of cards? I hear ellusionist has some cool white on black decks (ducking stray bullets).

Besides, I was told my handling of the one handed top palm was disarming.

That's ok landmark, I get why you'd rather see us become CCW folks become card throwers rather than carrying weapons to protect ourselves, and that's cool. I appreciate your position.

A good card thrower could probably take out an attacker's jugular at 7-10 feet. But my card skills demand the .380 over the deck of cards.

I can dodge bullets. AA

D****t tommy, you got in there before I could edit my post!

There are several 9mm guns that are about as small as that bodyguard. I would prefer a bigger cartridge for myself, especially in the winter, but whatever works for you is better than nothing.

As for the Glock safety issue, why don't you feel comfortable carrying it? What do you think is going to happen? None of my carry guns have a traditional safety, but they all have internal safeties for things like preventing accidental discharge in case of being dropped. If you follow these safety rules, nothing bad can happen. Keep muzzle pointed in a safe direction at all times. Keep finger off the trigger until you're ready to fire.

I rarely draw my gun unless I intend to fire, and that's never happened. Occasionally, I will pull it out in the car if I'm in a bad neighborhood and put it somewhere handy. The only other times I have drawn are when things go bump in the night and I need to clear the house. In those times, my finger is nowhere near the trigger, pretty much up on the slide, muzzle pointed in a somewhat down direction. In those scenarios, I've never wished I would have had a gun with an external safety. I tend to believe that if you can't handle a gun without a safety, safely, then you probably shouldn't have a gun. Remember, the safety isn't always foolproof either. Just my $0.02.

Just my opinion brother. My comfort level. Don't misunderstand me, I carry the Glock, but only in circumstances where it is comfortable to wear under my clothing, more like in the cooler weather and winter.
