The LC9s sounds like a good choice. I generally prefer striker fired for CC. And the Shield is almost the same size.... (random comparison video) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4ep3EkWEFcMake sure you try out the Aussie Pie Shop once you move there.

My high school sweetheart lived in Lemon Grove. She and I used to go to the top of Mt. Helix and watch the submarine races together. If there wasn't so much value in maintaining the relationship with my friend, I wouldn't care. But there is and I choose to respect that. It does limit my choices though. If truth be told, I'm not nearly so concerned about my buddy as I am about his wife. If she became aware that I was carrying a firearm, she would freak out!

Just know in the area you are moving to if you vote for someone with a "D" they will be after your guns read up on I-594 and the Seattle gun tax.

Especially if they're with fat bald guys from South Park. Otherwise, it's a great area.

First place I visited was another gun forum. They were talking about it over there so I did a little research. Makes me glad I didn't decide to buy a house in Seattle proper. I'll definitely keep an eye on it.

Don't move to Burien. You will regret it. But please do move to Washington.

I realize the crime rate in Burien is high overall, Jaime. But I think we're in one of the better parts of the city, at least I'm hoping that's the case. We've had tenants living in our home for almost three years now with only a couple of minor incidents to report, neither of which directly affected them or the property.
Is there anything else you feel I need to be aware of?

Maybe I just lived an extremely unsheltered life, but even the worst Burien has to offer is better than most of the neighborhoods I have lived in. Seattle in general is just not that scary.
