Its better than leaving it at home.

Nothing wrong with them and they're super reliable, so if you like them you can't go wrong with them. If you didn't go HK, I'd probably go here. They just aren't really for me. I haven't shot the FN so I can't really speak on it. The P365 is still new and untested on a large scale, and saw some concerns in early testing, so it wouldn't be something I trusted right away.Hey everybody, i just got my foid card and have been to the range a few times.

Haven’t been to the range in like 2 weeks. Don’t have the energy to do anything anymore. Brb wanna go to the range? Have to wonder if dealing with all the stares and sh*t is even worth it. Can’t stand that sh*t

You think printing could get you in trouble? Wait till somebody's kid kills themselves because the planets aligned and they got to your off body carry gun.
Carry a Shield or G43 AIWB or Smartcarry or belly band or ankle

The LCR is quite different from the rest, obviously, based on all the advantages of a semi auto I'd write off the LCR.
Glock 19 is larger than all the rest there. If you carry concealed a G19 is the largest you should consider for a first/only. It's probably a good choice there but the others will all conceal better more easily under more clothing choices.
The Glocks are the most popular, the most common, the easiest to work on yourself (don't even consider detail stripping the VP series), and have by far the most available and well priced aftermarket (accessories, magazines, holsters, sights, you name it). The FNS 9C is a great little gun but doesn't have that much support, probably it has or will have the least support of everything on that list. The VP9SK IMO shoots the best, and will have adequate support...I'd choose between the Glocks and the VP9SK. IF you have shot both then just pick the one you would rather go shoot tomorrow. If you haven't, can you? Shooting a full size VP9 would be close enough to give you an idea on the SK.

A Wheat Ridge gun dealer who became a Discovery Channel reality TV star on Thursday was sentenced to 78 months in prison for failing to report $1.1 million in income to the IRS, conspiracy and dealing firearms without a license.
Richard Wyatt was found guilty last year in U.S. District Court on 10 felony counts.
Wyatt secured a lucrative contract with the Discovery Channel to star in a television show, “American Guns,” about his shop Gunsmoke Guns, even though he did not a license to deal guns. Wyatt was paid $500,000 for the 26 episodes in 2011 and 2012 that featured him, his wife, two children and employees.
Wyatt entered an agreement with the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives to relinquish his federal firearm license in 2009.

But I am assuming at this point that you don't carry at all...because off body carry you cannot always be in control of is the most risky choice

there's also a state law that would protect me if I was fired for carrying but even if I sued for wrongful termination and won, they aren't under any obligation to hire me back
