I spent some time shooting the H&K VP9, so I reviewed it. Then I got to thinking about another discussion I had with some fellow podcasters about open carry, CCW and constitutional carry, so I expanded on that too.

Single stack, slim 9mm pistols that are pocketable seem to be the most popular self defense pistols on the market today. I own 2 very nice guns, the Kahr PM9 and the Shield 9mm. Both are superb. But Jon Payne and I have a difference of opinion as to which is best. So we analyze both of these little guns and also talk about open carry.
