Because CCW is allowed in VT - no permit required. If one is allowed to own a handgun, one can CCW with it. I CCW with my G17 because I don't want to become a crime statistic. Just shoot the criminal with Fed BPLE+P+.
This guy has a ton of experience at autopsy tables. If he highly recommends .40 and .45 pistols, then this is more than notable. I am going to retire my G17 soon and buy a G22.
