Top Five CCW Guns for 2018

The month of January brings new resolutions, new opportunities, and the chance to buy new guns. As we survey the current marketplace, several concealed carry guns stand out for their usability and overall quality. Specifically, the following five firearms deserve a spot on your 2018 wish list.

1. Charter Arms Bulldog XL .44 and .45 

Can a gun be easy to conceal and powerful at the same time? As this weapon proves, the answer is yes. It's a wheel gun, and it will feel really solid in your hands. What's more, its kickback is minimal because its frame absorbs much of a shot's force. 

2. Smith & Wesson M&P9C M2.0

This gun is exceedingly compact and ideal for hiding on your person. If you've seen the Smith & Wesson M&P9C, you might be wondering what's new here. Well, the barrel is a little longer; it measures 4 inches. Also, this gun's trigger is even more responsive. All in all, this firearm offers tremendous accuracy. It's a great product from a legendary American company.

3. Smith & Wesson Shield M2.0

Another beauty from Smith & Wesson is the Shield M2.0, which comes in two versions: 9mm and .40. Both of these concealed carry guns let bullets hit their targets from long distances away. And, when you pull the trigger, you might be surprised by how smooth the motion feels.

4. Glock 19 Gen 5

Year after year, Glock remains an industry leader, and the lightweight Glock 19 Gen 5 extends that proud legacy. Putting your magazines into this gun is a snap. The barrel is 4 inches long, and the grip is unridged, which is good news for anyone who wants a Glock but doesn't want the grooves its guns often have.

5. Springfield Armory XD-E .45 ACP

If you're a fan of Springfield Armory's XD-S concealed carry guns, you'll be just as impressed with this iteration. It also has a 3.3-inch barrel and a capacity of either 6+1 or 7+1. However, unlike the XD-S CCW guns, it's a double-action weapon. On top of that, the polymer frame lends it style, and the textured grip will soothe your hand while still allowing you to hold the gun firmly.
