I am ambulatory so may not be your target disabled audience. I carry a S&W 360PD - I found the larger, heavy, guns just uncomfortable and I caught myself leaving my carry gun at home. I tried the small semi autos like the KelTec's but I just like the idea of .357 ballistics and revolver reliability better.

Disabled since 1996. Have had several compact semi-autos. Now, Kel-Tec .40cal. Only gripe is I need to ramp it some more!!

Taurus Millennium PT140. Surprisingly easy to conceal and nicely trouble free.

I'm with Cousin up there. My S&W M&P 360 357 mag airweight with night sights is my favorite.

It kicks like a SOB

Not disabled but am on disability due to back injuries and serious internal med issues.

Summer carry, I have a SP-101 cal .357.125gr MG JHP.
Built like a tank accurate but a tiny bit weighty for its size.
Sometimes I carry the wife's original Charter Arms Undercover in .38spcl 110gr Hydra-shok hp its very light and dependable one piece frame revolver.
I carry Both in Don Hume Cross Draw holsters. Cross Draw is the most comfortable and quickest acquisition for me. In our extreme hottest time of summer, upper 90s and plus 100s, I use a fanny pack(we call fag bagblush)..my load out is 5 in revolver -w- two speed loaders for a possible total 15-rnds accessible, but can easily add a Bianchi speed strip or two to add another 10-12 rnds. Beats having them lose in your pocket with a bunch of lint or change. smirk

Come Fall-Early Spring,I grab my XD Compact/4" Barrel 10 or 13 rnd your choice .45acp Golden Saber 230 JHP or at times have Winchester Whitebox PD which is the same as the old tried and true Silver Tips just minus the electro coat alloy. Ill tell you know nothing comfortable about weight of three 13 round mags...with 1 in the pipe. That is 40 rounds time 230grains.And the side/hip Stock Fobus /XD holster is fair to good at best. I prefer a better cross-draw or IWB holster. (different story) But all that said a weapons weight and such it is comforting if not comfortable to have all that firepower if ever needed.
Am thinking of working up some hand loads of 200gr JHP this year using some Hi-Skor 700-x powder to push them along. Make for an excellent accurate round near 1000fps.

I took a Walters PK380 for a test drive and was very satisfied. The gun has the softest slide and trigger of all the guns I have tried. A great option for someone with weak hand strengh in their hands.

I bought myself a Taurus Pt101p .40 s/w. Carry it as a backup gun while hog hunting. Only complaint is the front site it too ridgid, but gunsmith is going to round it off a little for easier extraction. Laser will take care of the rest.

I have carried a Ruger LCP for quite a while now. I love them. Very accurate for the size and never had a jam. I have three of them and i have several other hand guns and haven't found anything easier to conseal or or shoot. they aren't for fellas with sausage fingers but they work for me. If anyone would like to shoot one before they buy just let me know and I will set up a time to meet at the Sachse/Garland range and let you put some through one of mine.
