As someone on the outside of the industry now, it’s interesting to see that line appearing to move back from sidecar holsters and Fauxland Specials to micro-compact, stagger-stack 9mms and revolvers combined with more promotion of compact first aid tools.
As far as foreseeable risks and weight penalties are concerned, five shots of .38 Special in an Airweight/Airlite, a speed strip, a CPR mesh, and a quality TQ will make you a far more useful human being against more foreseeable risks than a 31-rd 9mm loadout. Yes, you can add first aid to the big-gun kit, but the weight penalties and dresscode-restrictions add up fast in real life.
