There is a new SIG 556 rifle that looks sweet. I handled it at my local Cabela's. It has a folding stock and the stock is telescopic.

The 686+P is the best pistol I own. I recommend getting one with a 5' barrel- it'll have little to no recoil. I'm getting a CZ-75 in stainless because it has ambiextrous controls (I'm left handed). The SIG P238 is a little too small for me though

The 238 would be just a carry gun. Ive never seen a 686p in 5'', just 4 and 6, will the custom shop do a 5 inch or will i need to look used? I think a 5 inch would be a good all around length.

I think they stopped making them, so you'll have to get a used one. As for the tiny SIG, my hands are enormous, so I wouldn't be able to shoot it comfortably. If I want a CCW, I'll get a 686 snub

I paln on having multiple carry guns, but will start with something small and light enough for me to have on myself no matter what and build from there. First rule of gunfighting:have a gun. The 686 may be unwieldy while jogging.

I don't jog, so it doesn't matter for me

Dude, I live in coastal Texas; it's always hot. For example, it is just now starting to actually get cold. If I get a pocket gun. it's gonna be a Makarov

The makarov is actually a little overbuilt, not really a pocket gun, good CC gun though.
