    Sidearms & Scatterguns Shotshells for Defense

    Seen lots of shootings in 25 years of state police work, stay with BUCKSHOT or SLUGS if you want incapacitation. My carry is Federal Trueball slugs or Flightcontrol Buckshot for a reason.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Glock 21 -20 conversion

    Here is a photo of my Glock 30 with a BarSto 10mm conversion barrel, shoots really well. I like the KKM barrels and have a few but got the BarSto at a great price. LoneWolf or the Glock store should have everything you need.

    Sidearms & Scatterguns Sig 226 or 228

    I have 229s (9mm, .40 S&W, and .357 SIG) and have been issued 229s and 228s. I am old so none of them have rails. I would take the 229 in .40 S&W and a .357 Sig Barrel from KKM for it (My carry if expecting trouble at work) .40 S&W shoot well but the .357 Sig will shoot half the size groups...
