Vdep217 65 Posted June 10, 2023 So I've had a ruger lc 380 that I bought to carry twice a year while in arizona 15 years ago as I got it cheap. Now that I can carry every day I want to upgrade. I've been between the hell cat the ria bbr and most recently came across tge s&w csx. While the bbr and hell cat felt good wasn't that wow feeling. Last night I hot to shoot the csx and I got the holy shit feeling. Smooth accurate and light and it's a all metal gun but aluminum. The hammer is low profile but easy to manipulate the gun just feels great in the hand. I will be purchasing I believe. Tge only reason I didn't last night is because I'm still torn between the csx and bbr the bbr I shot well as well and it comes in 45. They both have the capacity I'm looking for of 10+1.

Tunaman 562 Posted June 11, 2023 I almost went for the CSX but I dont like the idea of carrying a cocked and locked. I wound up with a S&W Shield 2.0 Performance Center in 9mm. Its only 8 rounds but comes with 2 mags and a nice cleaning kit and some BEAUTIFUL HI Viz H3 sights. Its very slim and easy to conceal. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hammer cocked it's ready to go just as a striker fired is. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I handled the BBR but wasn't impressed - Proportionally it's too short and fat. Does not feel good in the hand to me. The CSX is similar in size to the M&P Shield and feels very comfortable. It's slightly wider than the Shield, which is fine. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
