[quote="t_long927"]i was going back and forth between a 27 and a 23.. I looked and held the 27 with the extra round and liked it. but then I picked up the 23 and was amazed at how stable the gun felt. I went and fired the 22, 27, and 23 and all we great guns. But, felt that the 23 was the best for me... I am a bigger guy so i figure if I do carry concealed then I should be fine...
But what about Power's Security Training??? Anyone know anything about them???[/quote]
I carry a G23 most of the time, except for sometimes in the summer I carry A G27. I carry appendix IWB and the G19/G23 size pistols are perfect for CCW IMO; small enough to effectively conceal, yet large enough for a good combat grip, fast presentation, and recoil management. Great choice in the G23; cheap, easily obtained, effective ammo in the most reliable package money can buy. Get a good, fast Kydex IWB holster with a FIRM belt loop (no hooks or snap loops). Avoid leather holsters for CCW, you'll understand why after you train with one.
Powers Training is the best game in town for county approved CCW training, no gun snobbery or politics with these guys. Just stay away from 2nd Amendment Sports training; they have gotten really bad since Don Busse left years ago (and was even pretty average back then). Whatever you choose, forget what you learned in the "county CCW" class and go get some "real" training (preferably with a school that does force-on-force).
Cant go wrong with the G23 or G27 - so get em both
