For protection...you never know. I also carry as a small business owner that carries large sums of money or in some cases is shutting up shop late at night with myself and my machinist.

Nonsense, luck has nothing to do with it.

Not too harsh recoil

Cons:
Hated disassembling
Hated how pain to change the grips
No safety/de****er
Hated trigger setup (elbow thing)

I haven't shot PX4, but hopefully this weekend I'll rent one at the range. I've played w it lil bit & here's my pros & cons of PX4
Pros:
Disassembling was easy... Really easy! Gotta be stupid not able to disassemble it
Grip was great
Safety & De****er
DIY ambidextrous mag release

Cons
Front & rear grip is lil bit harsh on the hand
Trigger pull is stiff... Not too stiff, but stiffer than expect
Heavier than M&P (just lil bit)
Doesn't take steel case bullet (so I read/heard)

I always loved Beretta... But S&W sure made amazing gun also. My friend has Walther P99 & that's a great gun too. Hard choices

I have a PX4 in .40SW. I will agree that it's heavy...eventhough it's a "polymer frame" it feels just as heavy as my M9 Beretta. First double action trigger pull is as you say stiff but smoothe after that. I would not shoot steel case like Blazer in it or you will have failure to feed and failure to eject problems. It has interchangeable backstraps like the Glock Gen 4s so I haven't found the grip to be an issue for me. I bought it because my duty weapon is a M9/92F and all of my muscle memory transfers directly to the PX4 as their controls are exactly the same.

I carry a Glock 27 as my off duty CCP weapon. It's a .40SW "baby Glock". It rocks. Nothing else to say.

For CC I have a Five-seveN - no recoil, high capacity, extremely light.

For everything else (hunting), I've got a Chiappa Rhino 6'' with the comp trigger, in .357.

My daily CC weapon is a Kel Tec PF9HK usually in an Uncle Mikes pocket holster. I love the pf9 because it's small enough to comfortably carry in almost any pocket, but with the extension on the mag I can still get half a pinky on the bottom for a better grip. If I'm wearing certain coats or a suit I carry my XD9, which holster I use depends on the clothes with that one.

Actually probably one of the easier things to get in Canada. (Well at least in .223 depending on whether they have primer issues like the 7.62X51 vs .308) All you need is you Un-restricted PAL, and you're good to go for like a Mini-14. Or a CZ 853 (old soviet 7.62X39), which is basically a better-built AK47. No joke, so long as the mags are pinned to 5 rounds, and you don't even think of hunting with FMJ rounds.

Canadian gun laws are weird sometimes...

Where do you guys keep your concealed carry when in car. I find it hard to keep steady in the glovebox, keeps moving around even wrapped. Any pics?

Maybe it's because I'm Canadian and I we don't have a lot of guns around these parts but this seems crazy to me. The thought of randoms walking around with concealed handguns seems completely over the top and pretty damn dangerous.

There's literally never been a time in my 33 years where I would have been better off if I had a gun.

Anyway, don't want to start anything political here, guns are cool and I'd probably own one if it was easier, but this whole thing just seems so out there to me.

Don't worry, the police will protect you. Remember, "when seconds count, they are only minutes away".
