Thank you for making a "bargain" gun video, most of us make less than 100k per year and really have to budget shop for guns

wow i literally just picked up my lc9s and just got back from the range so far i really like it

I had an sr9 it was a great gun but they could make it better if the field strip process was easier but...still a great gun, very underated

Bizarro world here in Indiana. I can get an XDS right now for $390. Where as an LCR in 38spl is going for $430-450. I paid $480 for my XDS a couple years back, but it came with the suitcase of accessories, and had the free magazines offer.

Excellent list. Love those J-frames. I would only add the M&P Shield in 9mm. My Shield has been 100% reliable and it has no recoil.

I have to say the Shield 9mm for $349 shipped is tough to beat. Everything else I have is full size

I can get new last gen glock 19 pistols regularly for about $370. I like ruger really, their automatic pistol selection isn't that sexy but I've never owned a ruger that wasn't a solid performer

The Ruger SR40c is the best shooting gun I have ever shot. This coming from someone who also has a Sig P229, FNS 9c and Glock 26. I highly recommend the SR40c and SR9c.

The Sig 239 in 357 Sig is awesome. My friend bought one. It was far superior to my 9mm. The slide was CNC ed. Not Stamped. Like the 9. The ammo was a little pricey. But what a round for CCW. The 239 is heavy to carry. But worth every defensive shot. Shawn

Another great economic pistol is the Taurus PT 709 "slim" 9mm ($280ish). I've shot hundreds of rounds through mine. Maybe closer to thousands. Great video!

Love me my SR9c. 10+1 rounds in a nice compact package, and a 17 round spare mag for the fantasy zombie situations. I never have trouble concealing it despite it being a bit larger than the Shield/PPS/G43/LC9s crowd. It's certainly smaller than a G19. I suppose a G26 would more or less cover the same ground in a slightly smaller and more expensive package.

Rugers also are built like tanks and will outlast me. Interesting choices as usual. I seem to change around from a semiautomatic to a revolver with the weather a lot. Urban areas carry in summer is so different for me when I am on the horse stable area with coyotes howling in the distance at night and getting my horse upset. There is something about pitch dark and having my horses ear suddenly point and all her attention goes in an area I cannot see that makes a good revolver with good sights comforting. I will not let my horse get hurt without a fight. Lately I find myself carrying a Charter Arms Pitbull in Tiger Stripes in 44 special with hollow points or a Mare's Leg in 44 magnum with a laser on it. I always carry three sources of light when the moon is not out. With the local storms and the wind, I sometimes carry for close work a Bond derringer in 410 as backup to the Mare's Leg. As you can guess I tend to do western carry at the Stable. One of my favorites even at the stable in warm weather is a Ruger LCP with a laser.

the Walther PPS M2 doesn't have an accessory rail I believe. but it is without a doubt the most comfortable gun for concealed carry. going to be my next purchase.

A lot of people argue that the 9mm has better Ballistics than the .38 special cartridge. But if you are going to be shooting them out of a Revolver than I would think choosing the .38 Special would be a better choice because you don't have to worry about having and using "Moon Clips". Plus if the Gun is sturdy enough you can always use "Plus-P" Cartridges with the .38 special to increase performance to near .357 Magnum Specs.

If you are not comfortable buying a used gun, get over it! Educate yourself on what to look for. You can get great guns and save a ton of money. I got an LCRx with an XS tritium sight for $325.

Did you ever get to try a Walther PPS M2..? Curious what you think. I sold a PPS classic to get the M2, and glad I did..! Cheers.... And Thanks.

As your picture of the Ruger LCR shows one is in .327 federal magnum. That is the one I want because the .327 is a very powerful caliber and can also shoot .32 smith and wesson long ammo and h&r .32 magnum. The problem I have found so far though is the LCRs in every caliber except .327 is around $400 . When you find one in .327 though it is priced around $500. To me it's not worth $100 more for the same gun only in a different claiber.

I purchased my LCRx "used" through private sale. " Only 100 rounds through it" (allegedly) If he told me it was brand new in box, I would have believed him no question about it. This gun was in perfect condition, and he threw in a 50 round box of ammo. $340 total, I couldn't be happier, it is a great little pocket gun.

Funny cause my First Gun every bought for concealed carry was the LCR in 38 special, went over to a Glock 27 about 2 years later and then now i'm back to my LCR cause its so much easier to conceal than G27.

For the first time on KZread for the top five carry guns under $400. The Ruger Company gets its do! I own the Lc9s 9mm pro. It is every thing I have looked for in a.380 sized weapon. But in 9 mm. If I see or hear about Glocks, Shields one more time. I am going to throw up. One gun that never gets even on the under $ 600 list. Is the Sig 239 in .357 Sig. It's in the 225 or 226 size range. If you shoot a .357 even in The Glocks it's a great round. A flat powerful shooting round. The draw back is the ammo is hard to find and costs alot more than the more powerful 9 mm rounds. The SR9C is as good as the XDS sub compact models. The Sig has always been a high dollar weapon. But they are tanks and can handle any ammo. Just to heavy to carry every day. Shawn

Ruger LC9s all the way! I have an XDS and I was going to buy Shield because it's lighter, but LC9S beats all other striker fired guns regardless of the price. My carry gun of choice - small, elegant (next to it XDS, Shield, Glock 43, and Walther PPS look like bricks), very light, very accurate and (or because) it has a great trigger. The first gun ever I can shoot a quarter at 7 yards without feeling like I won the lottery. If you think it's snappy, shoot 10 shotgun shells. Feels like a mosquito after that.

Xds 9mm is a bit better imo

I had a Ruger LC9s and hated everything about it. Magazine would pop out when it wanted to, hated the trigger, hard to shoot, front sight would move from left to right. Absolutely awful experience for me.

Now go and buy the Lc9s 9mm pro. The trigger is far superior. Don't let the Lc9. Get you down. Bought the Lc9s 9mm pro. 7 rd 9rd . Bought a Houge grip too. Please try this gun. This is the only gun I will own or carry. You are right the Lc9 sucked. Try try again. Great price too. Lc9s 9mm pro is not the same gun. Shawn

I recently bought a Kahr K40 compact covert used for $300.00

My list is similar, I would just replace the sr9c with a shield

Top five for under 400? 1. M&P Shield 9mm 2. M&P Shield 9mm 3. M&P Shield 9mm 4. M&P Shield 9mm 5. M&P Shield 9mm even the suppportive gear is cheaper and more available. things like the tlr-6 for people loke me that have to have a weapom mounted light

You have been duped. The Ruger Lc9s 9mm pro is far better. The trigger is awesome. If the Shield breaks the company won't back it up or fix it. Call them you will see. Shawn

Yankee in case your interested. Sportsman outdoors has the 2 inch rhinos on sale for 499. I know that's not under 400 but I thought it was a really good price.

I found a Ruger LCR used (lightly)for under $400, but it had the XS tritium sight installed, plus Crimson Trace laser grips, well-almost $700 if you bought those upgrades on your own. It's a great gun for CONCEALED carry, weighs almost nothing, and the .38+P is more than adequate. The problem? It hurts like hell to shoot, which is why the first owner dumped it. It is so light that the standard non-plus P .38's are worse than .357 mag loads in a Ruger SP-101. But, for a gun that will probably be carried all it's life and only used occasionally at the range, it's perfect.

Cheap Ass gun. For a cheap ass price. She breaks! The company won't back it or fix it. Go Ruger Lc9s 9mm pro. Now that's a real gun company. Shawn

Lc9, but no shield ? Really

great picks, I carry a Ruger LCRX with the three inch barrel pretty much everyday... when I don't have it I'm carrying my SR9

Number 5 (LC9s) and Number 4 (SR9c) are both my regular carry guns.

I agree with all of the guns on this list, maybe not in the exact same order, but they all fit in the criteria of the title. I own both the first and last guns on this list. I love them both. My LCR 357 is a work of art and engineering, and my LC9S Pro is smooth as silk. I would like to point out something I think you omitted, which is,that if you do not want a manual safety on your LC9S, you have to get the Pro model. Great video.

Thank you for your honest response. I read alot of opinions on here but people just want to think their weapon choice is the best. I waited a long time for some gun company to get The 380 sized 9mm right. I have owned a Sig 239 9 mm, XDS compact 9 9mm and a 642 38 plus P hammer less revolver. But the Lc9s 9mm pro is the best gun and trigger by far. I don't buy a lot of guns. I study every thing I can find to read long before I put my hard earned money down for CCW carry gun. Don't want a SAFETY on my CCW. So the Lc9s 9mm pro is my choice. Put a Houge grip on mine then bought the 9 rd mag. My hand is bigger than most people's. I am 6' 245. The Pro is easy to carry. I practice a lot so the 7 and 9 rounders are just enough for CCW . Shawn

I'm a little shocked that the Shield didn't make this list. I'd take it over s Ruger LC9s any day!

I've shot both, but own the Ruger. I may get a Shield, but my LC9S Pro, wins hands down. best trigger and super thin.

why would you buy a gun 3 or 4 times? I understand selling a gun, then regretting it and then buying another down the road, but 3 or 4? cmon man!

also, the safety is easy to disengage during draw but difficult to re-engage for dump barrels or holstering, requiring a second hand

My list is something like: 1. LC9s Pro 2. S&W Shield 3.LCP 4. SR9c 5. LCRx (.38 Spl) Our lists are actually really similar. It looks like Ruger fanboyism, but it's just the truth as I see it. They make extremely high value guns.

Douglas Fulmer Oh yeah I'm not buying one in 40sw that's for sure. I was just saying that's the price on them, at my local Gunshop. Most of them are used. Hell I saw brand new one In 40sw from performance center. It had those night sights I think, not sure know they are not original and the ported slide. That one was $429.99. It doesn't look like they are selling. If price goes just a little bit lower on the performance version Id might just for the hell of it. That Unfortunately I can't find a 9mm version there. And when they are in stock ,they are kinda overpriced.

Many of the Charter Arms revolvers can be had for less than 400 smackers, and they seem to be fairly reliable (once you send it back so they can fix what's wrong with it) and, you can find Shields for juuuuust a tick over $400 ($414 down at my LGS)

I totally agree about the Walther. It looks like an amazing weapon, but it felt awful in my hand. You should check out the Kahr CM line. Inexpensive and great carry guns. Fit my hand perfectly.

EDC=LC9S-PRO with a 9 round mag and TFX's for low light and no light. I have a LCRx, but with the finger extention on the 7 round mag and the built-in one on the 9 that makes the LC9S-PRO #1 and the LCRx my off body back-up.

I have never really thought of revolvers as carry guns but you do have a point when you think about it they are ok.
