Is the Derringer Pistol the Best Concealed Carry Gun for You?

DerringerDan.com is a place where firearm enthusiasts, beginners, and everyday folks alike can come to learn, explore, and share a passion for guns—especially compact firearms. While the site started with a strong appreciation for Derringer pistols—known for their simplicity, reliability, and deep concealability—we’ve grown to cover a wide range of topics, from everyday carry options to home defense, shotguns, rifles, and more.

I’m not a military vet or firearms instructor. I’m just someone who enjoys shooting, learning, and talking with others who share the same interest. Everything I write comes from real-world experience—through my own purchases, research, range time, and word-of-mouth from folks I trust. I’ve developed a strong passion for shotguns over the years, and more recently, a new love for clay shooting—something I now enjoy doing with my teenage son.

This site exists to share that journey. Whether you're looking for practical reviews, insights on carry options, or just want to expand your own knowledge, you'll find content here that’s based on curiosity, hands-on use, and honest impressions—not hype.

What You'll Find Here:

  • In-Depth Articles: Covering everything from Derringers and compact pistols to ammo, accessories, and gear we’ve actually handled and tested.

  • Concealed Carry Advice: Tips, holster suggestions, and information about what it’s really like to carry day to day.

  • Permit & Training Info: A straightforward look at what’s required to legally carry and how to find the right training.

  • Practical Firearm Talk: Shotgun insights, home defense thoughts, and coverage of topics that go beyond just carry pistols.

If you're here to learn, explore, or even just kill a few minutes reading about gear—you're in the right place. Thanks for visiting, and I hope you find something useful her
