Im new here so please don't get angry if this is a dumb quiestion. I am also fairly new to .45 calibers as well. Is a Sig 220 .45 caliber decent for conceal carry on me or in my car or is it a bit to big? Advice on a holter to fit it? It's about 13 years old and I need a new magazine as well. It only has one magazine and it's a 7 round clip. Advice or links would be greatly appreciated!

I'm about to be going to take a concealed carry class as well, those are questions i had except for my sig pro 2022. If you want and IWB holster, i am looking into getting a CrossBreeds Holster. I've seen many reviews and recommendations. As for 1911 being to big, it really depends on your build and holster type. Getting more mags is almost a requirement from what I've seen, if you plan on carrying enough for any given situation. I've seen articles and city requirements that state a police officer is to carry at minimum 3 mags, one in gun and two back up.



thats what i have to help as i said I'm still getting my ccl and not speaking from experience. I hope this helps

My concealed class was pretty fun. Great lessons learned!

Welcome to SigTalk!!

I carry a Sig SP 2022 4o cal. As you get comfortable carrying any size gun you will realize that so many people just don't pay enough attention to anyone to notice that someone is carrying a concealed weapon. The 1st gun that I regularly carried was a Kel Tec P-11 9mm. I felt like I was walking around with Dirty Harry's monster sized 44 Magnum and that EVERYONE could see it. What I have found to be the case is that with the proper clothes and a good holster/belt combo you can carry anything at all. The only real issue is that you are comfortable with what you have chosen as your EDC.
