A Great Line of Concealed Carry Pistols

Chambered primarily in .380 ACP, these small handguns are easily carried and pack a hefty punch in any defensive situation. We’re going to cover the different versions of the LCP and highlight the specific features of each to help you find the perfect fit for you. The individual models that we look at are all available at GrabAGun, along with .380 ammo, LCP accessories, and extra Ruger LCP magazines.
About Ruger
One of the last All-American gun companies, Ruger was started by William Ruger in 1938 when he designed the innovative light machine gun for the military. After an investment from Alexander McCormick Sturm, the company introduced a sporting firearm that put Ruger and Co. on the map. Ruger prides itself on making firearms for hunters and sport shooters of all skill levels. Since then, the company has sold over 20 million firearms. Interested in what Ruger has to offer? Go to GrabAGun.com and check out our collection of Ruger rifles, Ruger handguns, and more!
The first edition in the Ruger LCP lineup, the original LCP makes it a great option if you’re looking for an ultra-lightweight micro-compact pistol. The gun weighs in at 9.6 oz unloaded, making it easy to carry around in a variety of situations and outfits. Features of the Ruger LCP 380 include a 2.75-inch barrel, a 6-round magazine, and integral front and rear sights. The LCP 380 also features a recessed hammer to prevent snagging, a durable steel slide, and a checkered polymer grip to improve handling. The gun comes in numerous colors and finishes, allowing you to like the way your gun looks as much as you like how it feels. All of these features form a lightweight option for concealed carry or a pocket gun that you can count on!
The second edition in the LCP lineup, the Ruger LCP II is like the original LCP but includes some notable differences. One of these is the weight, with the LCP II boasting a slightly heavier build than the original model. It has a more substantial polymer frame, that brings the total weight up to 10.6 oz while assisting in recoil absorption. The trigger on the Ruger LCP 2 is another difference from the older LCP, featuring a striker-fired action that makes rapid firing smoother. An integrated trigger safety also distinguishes this model from the original LCP. In addition to featuring the same 6-7 round max capacity in .380 auto, the LCP II also has a line of .22LR models that have a max capacity of 10 rather than the standard 6 with the .380 models. This allows you to have a lightweight pistol with the same build as the .380 but a higher capacity to use when practicing concealed-carry handling and drills.
The most recent model in the lineup, the Ruger LCP MAX continues to build upon the design of the LCP II. Featuring the same footprint and roughly the same weight, the LCP MAX boasts great additional features like a double-stack 10-round magazine (with the option to buy a 12-rounded extended mag), a reversible ambidextrous mag release, and a tritium fiber optic front sight for reliable aim, even in darkness. These features make the LCP MAX a great choice for a high-capacity secondary or a low-profile, easily concealed primary.

This blog is part 3 in a 3 part series covering the best home defense guns.
Wrapping up our series to help you find the best guns for home defense, we’re moving on to our final category of home defense firearms. Offering a variety of unique benefits, rifles like AR15s, AK47s, and carbines display great performance in a variety of shooting situations, including home defense. If you’re interested in finding a home defense rifle of your own, keep reading to see some of our top picks for the best home defense rifles here at GrabAGun!
Our Top Home Defense Rifles
As previously mentioned, a semi-auto rifle, like an AR-15 or a carbine,is an excellent choice for home defense due to the features offered. Designed with sporting and tactical use in mind, the construction of these rifles is lightweight and durable, allowing them to easily be wielded and maneuvered in virtually any situation. Their construction also allows for customization and the mounting of accessories like optics, lasers, flashlights, slings, etc., making it easy to build a gun that works best for you.
The performance of rifles like AR15sand carbines is another reason they’re good for home defense. Their high-capacity mags mean you don’t have to worry about running out of ammo. Additionally, since most models fire 5.56 NATO, .223 Remington, or similar ammo, these rifles deliver more than enough stopping power. While overpenetration can be a concern in a home defense situation, the increased accuracy of a rifle, along with the design and lighter grain of a defense round, reduces the likelihood that a round will penetrate multiple walls if a shot misses the target.
Now that we’ve gotten to look at some of the benefits of rifles for home defense, there still remains the question of which one is right for you. To help in your search, we’re now going to look at some of our favorite home defense rifles at GrabAGun! This list covers a range of prices and includes rifles from top brands, like Smith & Wesson, Ruger, Colt, American Tactical Imports, and others. Check out our list below!

Keep reading to learn about the benefits of shotguns for home defense and see some of our picks for the best home defense shotguns!
Our Top Home Defense Shotguns
Shotguns prove to be a great option for home defense for several reasons. First, they provide high stopping power in a home defense situation, with buckshot easily hitting an intruder at close range and ending the situation. Second, the penetration offered by buckshot also offers a great balance for home defense, easily incapacitating an intruder without penetrating the interior of the house too deeply. The spread of the shot also allows the shooter some margin of error while still taking down a target with accuracy. Third, a semi-automatic shotgun or pump shotgun provides higher capacity and allows the user to fire several shots in quick succession, which is essential in a home defense situation.
However, there’s still the question of which one to buy. Many popular brands manufacture guns for home defense, such as Remington shotguns, Mossbergshotguns, Beretta shotguns, and Winchester shotguns. To help make the decision easier, we’re going to share our choices for some of the best shotguns for home defense. While this isn’t an exhaustive list, we’re going to cover some of the most popular home defense shotguns for sale we have available here at GrabAGun!
Remington 870 Express Tactical 12 Gauge
The Remington 870 Express Tactical is a great pump-action shotgun for home defense! The best-selling shotgun in history with over 11 million manufactured, the Remington 870 family of shotguns demonstrates strength, durability, smooth bind-free action, and sleek classical lines. People often buy the 870 for its reliability and durability in every shooting situation. The 870 Express Tactical can be used for sport or hunting but is primarily designed to excel in the area of home defense. The gun features a short and maneuverable 18.5-inch barrel, a durable synthetic stock, a bead front sight, and a six-round capacity. All of these qualities and features come together to produce one of the best tactical shotguns ever made.
Like the look of the Remington 870 12 gauge above but need something a little lighter with less recoil? Then look no further than our next top pick, the Remington 870 Express 20 gauge! Though some sources say you need a 12 gauge for home defense, a 20 gauge shotgun still provides plenty of stopping power while also delivering reduced recoil. The Remington 870 Express 20 gauge does exactly that, delivering the same durable quality and home defense capabilities of the 870 Express 12 gauge while firing a smaller 20 gauge shell and weighing approximately 1.5 lbs lighter when unloaded. It’s a great option for anyone looking for a home defense shotgun, as well as smaller shooters and those that need a lighter gun with less recoil.
Another great home defense shotgun is theMossberg 930 SPX, which has a reputation as a rugged and dependable autoloader that demonstrates first-rate performance in home defense applications.

With all of these great features, the Mossberg 940 Pro Tactical could be the best fit for you!
Another 20 gauge on our list, the Mossberg 590 Shockwave is a great shotgun for anyone looking to buy with home defense in mind! The 590 Shockwave is light and highly maneuverable in tight spaces, featuring the bird’s head pistol grip, a 14.375-inch barrel, and an unloaded weight of 4.95 lbs that keeps its profile low. The 20 gauge caliber also makes it easier to operate because of less recoil, making it an excellent choice for smaller shooters. The internal functions of the Shockwave feature dual extractors, positive steel-to-steel lockup, twin action bars, ambidextrous safety, and an anti-jam elevator to ensure smooth operation. A convenient clean-out tube magazine cap, front bead sight, and a ‘corn cob’ strapped forend finish the list of features from the Mossberg Shockwave, making it a serious tactical shotgun for home defense.
The Beretta 1301 Tactical Shotgunis a durable choice from another one of our top manufacturers. The 1301 Tactical is a semi-automatic shotgun designed for law enforcement and home defense.

If the last few years have taught us anything, it’s that the gun community will continue to thrive. More and more people have picked up an interest in firearms with women leading the pack, and this year is no exception. For those of you that are new to the world of firearms or are looking to learn more, we’re here to help! In this blog, we’ll cover some of the most important considerations when choosing the right handgun for you. After that, we’ve compiled a list of our recommendations for the best handguns for women, all of which you can find at great prices on our site.
Let’s get started!
How To Find the Perfect Handgun
With so many different handgun options out there, it is easy to get overwhelmed with information and have trouble moving forward. Overall, the right handgun for women is a personal endeavor. It takes time to research, test, and get a feel for the firearm that you may be carrying every single day.
Not sure where to start? We have put together a comprehensive guide of things you need to know before you start your handgun search.
Size
Handguns come in various sizes to accommodate shooters’ hand sizes, compliance, and more. Your options are full-sized, compact, and now subcompact (also known as micro-compact). The best handgun for women will depend on their needs, what they are comfortable handling, as well as how they plan on using their firearm.
Full-sized
As the largest category of pistols on the market, a full-sized handgun is a preferred choice for most. They are large enough to get a sure, comfortable grip and generally have minimal recoil. They usually have barrel lengths in the 5 to 6-inch range, large frames, and a longer sight radius. That said, a petite woman may be comfortable using a full-sized Glock at the range, but it’s not necessarily ideal for daily concealed carry.
Compact
For daily concealed carry, a compact firearm is ideal. A compact firearm may be more appealing for female shooters since it can be easier to get a secure, comfortable grip. More and more brands likeGlock,Ruger, andTaurus have produced high-quality compact firearms that are perfect for new shooters, women, or anyone that wants a reliable pistol in a reduced size. Compact handguns feature barrel lengths between 3.5 and 4.5-inches, smaller and lighter-weight frames, and reduced grip size.
Subcompact
Subcompact firearms are a little newer and are often referred to as a “pocket pistol”. These handguns are typically about 1-inch in width with the barrel averaging about 3.25-inches. Every handgun is different, so some may be bigger and some may be smaller. Many like to keep these as backup firearms, typically concealed in lower back or ankle holsters.
Everyone has to start somewhere and .22LR is a great place to get that start. Not only is it easy to shoot (minimal recoil), it’s easy to find bulk ammo deals and it’s affordable. This is not the best choice for daily carry, but for target practice? Absolutely! Brands likeCCI produce high-quality cartridges that are accurate, no matter how green the shooter may be.
Arguably the most popular ammo for sale, 9mm Luger is trusted by civilians, military personnel, and law enforcement agencies around the world. It’s a highly versatile round that can be used for daily carry defense, target practice, home defense, and more. While it does have more recoil than .22LR, it’s still incredibly manageable and great for beginners, women—anyone, really. What’s more, it’s not hard to find bulk 9mm ammo deals online, especially at GrabAGun!
Even though 9mm replaced this as the most popular ammo choice, .40 S&W is still just as effective as it ever was. .40 S&W was originally the FBI standard cartridge because of how damaging it ultimately was. This is a heavy and powerful load, which is why many trust it for their daily defense carry. It might be a bit much for women to use, so make sure to practice with it as often as possible if you decide to get a .40 S&W handgun.
.45 ACP offers a beautiful combination of accuracy and stopping power. As the official standard military issue for more than 70 years, it’s no wonder why so many choose this for their daily carry. Whether you are at the range or just going about your day, .45 ACP is a reliable cartridge to have on hand. Much like .40 S&W, this may be a harder load for women to use, but with enough practice, you’d be surprised at how easy it is to handle!
A common misconception about smaller guns is that they will have less recoil. This is far from the truth. While a smaller gun appears less intimidating, they often pack a serious punch. Combine that with less weight and shorter barrels and many learn, the hard way, that smaller handguns for sale ultimately fail to absorb all that shock. So, though a smaller handgun is easier to conceal, that doesn’t mean it’s better for your overall needs. The most important thing you need to do once you get a new handgun is to practice! Make sure you know how to handle the gun and how it feels to shoot before wearing it as your daily carry.
Handbag vs. Holster
If you plan on carrying a Glock handgun daily, then it’s important to decide how. Many women may prefer to carry their EDC in a handbag while others may want to use a holster. Unfortunately, most women’s clothing is not geared toward concealed carry, so it can be difficult to figure out what will be best for your everyday needs. Our suggestion is to try out various methods in store to see what you’re most comfortable with. Then, shop for holster deals at GrabAGun to find exactly what you need.
Almost all of our top brands make a handgun that would be great for women, smaller individuals, or new shooters. We put together this extensive list of some of our most popular handguns and why they may just be the next gun you should consider for concealed carry this year! Make sure to check out all of our guns at GrabAGun.com and find the perfect handgun, holster, and ammo for you!
