The Night Land by William Hodgson. It’s a dreamy, dark scifi story set in a future dying earth, told through the lens of a 17th century man describing it. I am reading directly because Tim Cain recommended it in one of his videos.

Sizewise, the Storm is comparable to a Glock 19, which is technically a compact model.

I personally do think it’s quite large. I think “pocket pistols” are a more practical size for 24/7 carry. I do know some people who manage to lug around Glock 19s or even full metal guns in the same size range. I guess it all comes down to trading off shootability vs easy of conceal/comfort. For me, I take note that most people I know IRL who start off in the full size or even “compact” size either eventually switch to a “pocket pistol” or they get lazy about carrying. There are a few hardcore holdouts who do carry bigger stuff, so I suppose it takes knowing if you’re the type to actually carry it or not.

The one in the article also has a flared magwell for some inexplicable reason on a supposed CCW.

You claim to be loyal to The Legion, yet you pronounce the word as “Caesar”.

Curious.
