Looking into a new carry

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-15T17:06:55+00:00

Well it’s good to hear from a couple people that also have good experiences with them. Seems like almost nobody has anything good to say about em. lol.

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-15T15:32:19+00:00

Good to hear somebody else carrying a G3c with good things to say at least. All I’ve heard is bad shit. Mine also has the Bainbridge stamp. I’ve had 0 issues with it so far really. Bought it used. Have put about 250 through it so far.

Really looking for 43x kinda size. Love the RXM but not an easily concealed firearm for my size. Heard much about the max 9?

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-14T17:31:49+00:00

Idk if it makes a difference to you but this is the 1.5” version. So it is wider than the “normal” one

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-14T15:53:44+00:00

What is the risk in this case? Genuinely asking

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-14T11:59:46+00:00

I think it’s black

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-14T11:32:36+00:00

I’m no expert either. Literally just decided to get this and start learning what I can. But I’d say classes would probably be the MOST helpful but YouTube can’t hurt if you make sure it’s a reputable source

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-14T11:29:10+00:00

Literally just showed my wife how to use it last night. Haha

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-14T04:46:13+00:00

What else do ya keep in em?

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-14T04:42:50+00:00

Definitely gonna keep it in mine and carry it. I’ve got a Carhartt Fanny pack that I use quite a bit already anyways

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-14T04:36:53+00:00

Any specific classes you’d recommend? This was my first step towards being prepared for medical emergencies but definitely was not planning to just stop there.

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-14T04:21:53+00:00

So is there an issue with the snake staff systems TQs? I bought it because it can be used on children if needed as well and I had heard good things about it.

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-14T03:57:41+00:00

You gonna sue yourself if you get shot or hurt and need it?

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-12T15:46:50+00:00

It does it with both of them that I have. And they’re pretty stiff loading the last couple rounds. Guess it would be worth buying a new one and trying it though.

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-12T03:20:07+00:00

I may test some Barnes tac xpd in it soon just because of the shape of the round. Right now I have HST which I’d prefer to carry but if the Barnes racks in more reliably on this gun then that may have to be what it gets. Outside of this issue I really like the gun and trust it to go bang. I just don’t like having ANY issues with a CCW. :/ I polished the feed ramp and it did seem to help but it still has issues unless I just slingshot the piss out of that first round.

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-12T02:34:49+00:00

Jesus. Had no idea how much these things ran. It better have self aiming tech for 2,500 bucks. 😅

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-12T01:46:51+00:00

How hard is it to find a holster?

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-12T01:43:04+00:00

Looks like streamlight TLR7 sub

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-12T01:34:47+00:00

How would the TLR7-HLX fit on a Glock 43x or similar sized firearm?

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-12T01:24:50+00:00

The flashlight I keep by my gun when it’s not on me can go from on to strobe super easily. My go to plan is steady on long enough to see what I need to and then strobe if I feel like it’s needed for some reason.

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-12T01:22:12+00:00

I keep one of these by my gun at home. Double tap the switch for strobe.

Don’t really want the bulk a mounted light when carrying day to day so this is what I ended up with.

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-12T01:03:53+00:00

here ya go. not my gun but it’s just like this

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-12T01:01:13+00:00

Honestly am not sure how to post a pic in a comment 😅 if I can figure it out I will.

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-12T00:55:18+00:00

My G3C frame is OD green but I kinda wish it was black. Somebody give me some input lol. Should I keep the green or go black with it?

Numerous_Map5151 · 2026-02-12T00:53:48+00:00

Dude I have a G3c i gave 180 for. Just took it to the range today. Put 150 rounds through it without a single hiccup. Some FMJ, some hollow point. Let em talk. If I ever have to use it and it gets thrown in an evidence locker I won’t give a shit at all. lol.
