Just found this site. My name is John and addicted to guns. I have had a pug for awhile now and just ordered a guardian 380. It should be here in a few days. I have several carry guns but had to have another, lola. Any opinions on iwb holsters? The heavy long trigger is a plus for me for safety reasons. Looking forward to reading about the NAA pieces.

Welcome aboard, John! If you have an adiction to firearms, you should have no problem acquiring an addiction to NAA's.

Welcome John,
You have just entered an all together different world.
I suggest buying in pairs.

John LS,
Welcome to this forum. No sweat,you will fit right in.
Already you have started with a PUG and soon a Guardian. Can't go wrong there!!!

Don't fight the urge to get more,we understand you.

Lets hear how they do on the range!!

There are many quality holsters out there,take your time to pick the right one for you. I prefer IWB but that is me,you might have other preferences.

I have a nice little pocket leather holster for the pug that is really nice. Can't remember the maker but I believe he only makes them for the little revolvers. For the guardian I prefer an iwb holster that allows the gun to ride low just above the belt line. Thanks guys and yes I am sure I'll spend plenty of time here. My wife may not like it because between guns, hot rods, motorcycles, and the hvac sites she doesn't get much time, lol.

He's a belt and suspenders sort of fellow.

I think the only thing he doesn't have in pairs is his wife.

Another welcome aboard there John LS . More ,more and more that's the beauty of these the price makes one buy another . Just like that Lays potato chip commercial just don't need a disguise to buy them , MAYBE .

john LS · July-01-15 16:07

Just ordered another holster. Desantis popup holster. Should do what I want it to and cheap.

They get lonely if they are alone.

Uncle Lee: Oh! OK. I wondered where those whimpering noises I was hearing were coming from. I now keep my Black Widow and Mini in close proximity, and the noise went away. Now Dad and Son are together. Thanks!

Most of us have two hands, right? Do we want one of them to get bored while the other gets preferential treatment? I think not!

Welcome to the madhouse John!

john LS · July-03-15 14:07

Just picked up my guardian 380. Very nice quality. Trigger very heavy which I had expected and prefer for carry. Hope to make it to the range tomorrow with federal , blazer, sign, remington hollow, extreme penetration,and magtech. A little of each. I have a snap cap in it now trying to loosen it up a little. Then will strip and clean.

mainstreet · July-03-15 16:07

(Enjoy your Guardian .380! Should be fun. There is nothing better than a new gun. ( Well, "almost". )

To Old To Run · July-03-15 17:07

John

glad to see you got it, that was a long wait wasn't it,

now your going to have to keep us posted in how well it shoots. have fun

john LS · July-11-15 11:07

Just got back from the range with the Guardian 380. Tried several different ammo and no problems at all. Recoil was not bad to me. I am not recoil sensitive like some although. I really like this little gun. My accuracy wasn't great but I am not the greatest shooter. My wife likes the story when I took my ccl. The instructor had us all take a 5 shot practice. First student he looked at his target and said that he was pulling, etc. Looking at my target he said "you just need to calm down", lol. I am getting better even though my nerves aren't the best.
