Ill do that very thing on occasion, but with a second gun, and not the one Im carrying.Pistol in a pocket is not easily drawn in a car but the one in the console or door pocket is.
To much to go wrong, and the gun isnt on you.

I don't care what anyone has stuffed in their pants, a pistol in your pocket is always there, and is no trouble at all.
CDW4ME, what holster are you using? have you always carried the Glock 19 or did you work up to it? Did you always carry a back-up? It does look like that Glock conceals well on you. Good job. I'm relatively slim, wear clothes that fit, and don't typically wear cover garments until the weather makes me. I haven't mastered a comfortable concealed carry with my compacts yet. I haven't gotten that far on my journey.
My chances of needing it are miniscule. My chances of needing more gun than that are so small it's almost incomprehensible. I've come to place a higher value on comfort and convenience the last decade or so.
Agree totally.I've had concealed carry for over 25 years and never "needed" it.
I'd say (hope) that my chances of "needing" it are slim.
That said, the point of carrying is "just in case" I unfortunately "need" it, somebody(s) is trying to kill me.
Defending my life, I'd strongly prefer a Glock 19 (23) or full size 1911 in my hand than a pocket 380/38 snub.
I don't feel I'm sacrificing comfort or convenience to carry a "decent" pistol.
Agree 110%.No handgun is a death ray.
For instant PHYSICAL incapacitation, you need a central nervous system hit. There are many other ways of incapacitation- fear of getting shot, pain from getting shot, fear of getting shot again, shock, etc.
But the only way you are going to instantly stop the mythical zombie, is to have a CNS hit. Someone intent on doing you physical harm can do so for minutes after a fatal, non CNS shot.

"Better than nothing" is not a criteria I use to select a pistol to bet my life on.
What was your criteria when you carried less than a Glock 19/23/32?
So, you just told us that bigger cartridges are more powerful. Of course they are.
